BLOG #2 - A Concert I've Been To


In April 2017 these two legends of music - Elton John and James Taylor - came to Chile for an unforgettable show at Movistar Arena. My father invited me to this concert, and it was a magical night.

I’ve been listening to James Taylor practically since the day I was born because my father loves his music so much! I even have pictures with my dad sitting on the couch holding a six-months-old me in his arms while watching a James Taylor DVD, so it was very emotional for both of us because it’s an artist that brings us closer together and has done so for 20 years now.

At that concert he sang every song we love, we sang our lungs out to all of them and I cried every minute of it. It was amazing.

After James Taylor’s performance Elton John came to the stage and, even if it wasn’t as emotional for us, having the opportunity of seeing this legend of British music live was wonderful! It was one of the best nights of my life :D

BLOG #6 - Postgraduate Studies

I would love to do a Master's Degree in Conservation of Architectural Heritage when I finish my career. I'd like to do that Master's in Italy, ideally in Milan. If I could, I'd like to travel there and live the experience of studying in an Italian classroom. In Chile, we have a mediocre legislation around Architectural Heritage: no support for the owners of buildings cataloged as Architectural Heritage, unbearable bureaucracy to do any modifications on them, poor regulation to integrate them to the contemporary lifestyle of our cities, no help from the government to administrate them, etc. I think we could learn a lot about how European countries preserve and manage their Architectural Heritage Buildings. They have already studied their over two thousand years of buildings and the best ways to protect them from damage while including them to the everyday life of their cities. I would like to study about restoration of damaged materials, building rehabilitation (...

BLOG #5 - My Future Job

I've known I wanted to be an architect since I was about five years old. As an architect, I would hate to have a desk job and sit in an office all day. I would like to be in a job position that would allow me to know people from different places and realities: clients, distributors, construction workers. It would be great if that job position also allowed me to be involved in my projects' growth from the idea to the materialization. I think that's the most rewarding thing a job can give you. If I study a major I would like to specialize in the rehabilitation of architectural heritage. I think buildings are the physical testimony of the way the members of a given society live their lives and relate to each other in a given moment of history. It is an interesting challenge to find a way to balance the preservation of that testimony with the adaptation of it to the lifestyle of our times. In addition to that, we have to consider the challenge of preserving our architectura...
