Difficulties 

Since I was a child I have been fat, the truth is that I never cared much, for me it didn't matter if I was thin or fat, after all, as long as I was in good health that was the important thing. 

But all that changed when I became a teenager, because I started to notice the opposite sex, and teenagers are not very delicate when it comes to saying things.

I constantly heard how other people criticised me for being fat or said that I would never be with a fat person.

But in 2020 the pandemic started, and with it came a lot of free time, in which I dedicated myself to losing weight and exercising, where I went from 100kg to 80kg in almost 6 months.

Why is this photo so important? 

Because it reflects all the change and all the effort I made to change and to be different, not because of someone else, but because I needed it.

That day I decided to take a picture of me posing like one of the many pictures I saw on pinterest and see how I felt when I took a picture, and I must say that I felt comfortable. 

To tell you the truth I still have a long way to go and I hope I can have many more photos where I can feel amazing or proud of me, so day by day I will strive to make that happen.

Summer Holidays.

My Summer Holidays

When I was a child, I always went on holidays to the south of Chile, I must say that I loved its landscapes and its mild climate where, despite being in summer, you could find rain outside your window.

I must say that Valdivia became a beloved destination for me.

Then a week after the south of Chile, we used to go to the central coast for a week, I didn't like swimming at the beach, but making sand castles was my passion, playing carioca in the sand or soaking my feet in the water very quickly.

Nowadays I don't think I have holidays because of university, but in a way I feel happy, because right now I'm enjoying my time at university. Being able to go to a bar with friends and drink some beer makes me happy.

Although I think I'm going to take a week off work to relax with my family, watch movies or just chill out. 

What I would like to do once I finish my degree and the covid is under control would be to travel the world, maybe Europe for 2 months and enjoy all the money I've been making, meet new cultures, people or just enjoy the wonderful and diverse world. Although that's still a long way off from what you see in the news.

But for the moment, I'm content to watch videos of luisito comunica and imagine myself there enjoying everything that the different countries I could visit have to offer, or maybe enjoy a video of lethal crisis and be able to learn a little more about the cultures of different countries.
