www.plataformaarquitectura.com It may seem very obvious but one of my favorite web pages is Plataformaarquitectura, it has saved me many times since there are many projects, including projects in Chile. The interface is intuitive and projects are grouped based on criteria, you can also search for specific projects or by themes. They usually have a lot of information, from plans, renders, diagrams and many things of that kind that help to refresh the mind with ideas. To be honest I visit him most days since I always have to be working for Taller 8. I like it as they also upload news and articles that are often useful for research work. It's probably my favorite page only at this point in my life because in a way it needs to be. In the stage I am in, my last workshop and seminar, I have had to read a lot about architecture, but the truth is that it has been overtaking me lately, I just want to survive until I finish.

What are you really into?

Before quarantine I was quite active and my hobbies were in that line of doing sports, climbing hills, riding a bike with friends and those things. But obviously because I am not being able to go out like before, I was interested in things like video games and series, but after a while even those things bored me. One of the hobbies that I least expected but that I have enjoyed the most is reading, before I was not a person who loved to read, but now I can assure you that I became one. I have read more than ten books since the quarantine began, I also like to read manga, manhwas and light novels, since I discovered that many animes are based on that type of novels, and frankly I have really enjoyed reading, one of the few positive things that I have achieved with this pandemic. I see it as something positive since for the seminar I had to read a lot and creating this habit was just what I needed at this time.

A photo and a story.

  This is my favorite photo of the last time, Logan loves to sleep and can sleep wherever he wants to. He has the basic skills of a cat but with the difference that he weighs almost 9 kilograms, he is a giant cat but still has the physical properties of a liquid. I like to be able to see him rest peacefully since I have always believed that it is one of the minimum things that animals deserve. Also, Logan arrived at a difficult time for our family, we were moving and they were quite chaotic times, when he arrived, he full us of joy, calm and tenderness. Now that he has been with us for four years, no one in the family can ignore him and if he wants to sleep in my parents' bed, he will do it and on top of that they will tuck him in. 

A Meal or Food You Really Like

I may sound very trite, but I could eat pizza every day of my life if it didn't negatively affect my health, it's too much for me. The truth is I'm not a very good cook and I don't have much idea of how to make an acceptable pizza, most of the time I buy them, few times I have dared to make a pizza, just being with friends. I like it because depending on what ingredients are used, there is a very wide range of flavors, with many options to be happy. Obviously I don't eat a lot of pizza since I am very clear that it would be quite harmful to my health if it were like that and especially if we take into account that we are still in a pandemic and I am very used to a sedentary life due to quarantine, I think it will cost me to return to exercise, but from time to time we order pizza with my family and we always have a good time so I could also say that it affects positively in that sense. To be honest we were a pretty carnivorous family before, so our favorite pizzas u...

My Favorite Piece of Technology

I think my favorite piece of technology is my laptop, since it is where I can do everything I want, from playing videogames and watching series, to working on important things in college. I use it for much of the day in these quarantine times as I have a desk in my room where I mainly work for the university. But I also feel quite nostalgic and happy to remember my childhood playing with my brother and my cousins on the PlayStation 1, in arcades and those kinds of games, so I could consider them as pieces of technology with a lot of impact in my life as well.

Why did I choose my major?

When I was a child, my dream was to be a soccer player, and the truth is that it was until when I was about 15 years old because the truth was quite good, I was always in the teams of the schools I went to, however when I grew up my interest went to other areas, and since I was about 15 years old I always thought of studying architecture. Other options I had in mind were computer engineering and veterinary , yes, they have nothing to do with each other. I finally decided to study architecture since it was about what I knew the least, yes, a rather strange reason. So far my experience studying has been beautiful, I have had many experiences and I have met many beautiful people.
