    Hello everyone. The topic of this week is "travels". I don’t know if I am the best person to discuss this issue because I've never traveled very far from Santiago; but, at least, in the  places I've been away, I’ve had unique experiences.

In general, every summer I go on vacation with my family to the beach. We don’t have a house there, so we always go only for a few days. This year we went a little  further  than  usual (central coast), so it was more fun than the other times. We wanted to travel  further  north to see if it was true that the beaches are more beautiful and whether the water was warmer, so our destination was Guanaqueros town, because none of us had been there before. Although only mobilize on bus, we take care to visit other places, relatively close to the place where we stayed, for example Tongoy, Coquimbo and La Serena. Every day we got up very early to take advantage of every single hour of sunshine, so we did many things during the day, like traveling on the road, walking along the beach and visit many craft fairs.

In my opinion, one of the most fascinating things of traveling is to know the local gastronomy, because food reveals aspects of the culture and natural resources of the place. For example, if you go to the beach, you shouldn’t eat chicken or beef; unless livestock is widely developed there... you should take advantages to eat seafood and fresh fish.

As I already said, I've never traveled very far from my hometown, so I hope someday to travel to many exotic places like India, Philippines or Egypt. One of the countries that give me more curiosity is Senegal or Bora Bora. Senegal is an African country, with a tropical climate and varied nature, and Bora Bora is an Island of magnificent turquoise waters. I would love to visit these places to know their culture and especially their food, which is one of the things  that most attracted when I'm traveling.
