Post 3: My best friend

 My story with my best friend begins at the 2011, when I was 11 years old. At this time, I started to assist at extracurricular class. There we past different type of knowledge and we made a lot of funny experiments. In the first classes, I didn’t know anybody, and all my classmates were in the same situation. When the weeks stared to past, I saw that one boy was going in the same direction as me. From that moment, we were always on our way home together. And our friendship stared to be closer every day. His name is Martin. He is too much extroverted as opposed to me. For this reason, we make an odd couple, but this is amazing because, we can help us for to be the better our self version. I have too much memories with him. I always remember when all the Saturdays, after the class, we went to the mall and we bought a big , really big, box of French fries , and we talk about the gossips of the day or what we made  in the week and  spend all the day talking and laughing.

Post 6: Postgraduate Studies

Hello! In the today´s post, I´m going to talk about what postgraduate course I would like to take. As I tell in the last post, I see myself like an urban-planning, for this reason I need to take some type of specialization about this topic. I think in a course, which talks about transporting and how the people move into the city. Another matter that I feel very interesting and so relevant was sustainability because If we change our lifestyles in the city we can be more ecofriendly. Because, at present, our energy sources, our transports ways and our consumption habits damage the environment. But with a good planning we can be more efficient. Actually, I don´t know which  post grade course I would like to take  specifically, or in which university I want to study. But I would like to get my post grade abroad. Probably in a country like England or Germany, because these countries have a great vision about how a city has to be. And they have prestigious universities with really good
