POST 4: my not productive days

The independence day holidays this year was very long. Usually we have two or three days for rest and "celebrate" the "origin" of the nation, but this year we have ten days!, was a lot of time (and how the party never end for the first warm days of the spring, is a complete disaster).
Generally, in a normal year, I went to a barbecue in the house of my cousin or one of my friends, I eaten and drank carefully because in a couple of days we have come back to work; but this year was different. First, in friday, I went to the party in the Faculty of Architecture, many people from the school of art and others friends stayed there and this was great. I saw friends that I didn't see generally. I helped a friend with her "mini- bar", sold a lot of "chicha" and cooked a lot of "anticuchos", I really enjoyed that. The sunday I went to friend's home, we were eight or ten people, but the party was amazing, inclusive we finished dancing. After this day, in my home I would make "empanadas" with others friends, because that I must wake up early... the headache was terrible. After a lot of "mate" and rest one hour more, I was ready to reicive my guests. The day was perfect, the conversation and the music were very good and the people left my home early, because I can sleep very well. The exact independence day was very familiar. Finally, friday and saturday I went to parties in home of friends, but I was calm (with the all days was enough).

That was my ¡week! of independence days, was very intense and now I need other week for rest.

Post 3: San Marcos Sierra

The holidays is one of my favourite part in the year. No matter if I travel far or near of home, always is the time to rest of the work did during the year. Usually the time of travel is the vacations of summer, in february, but the most memorable trip was in the Easter.
I went to San Marcos Sierra in 2009, when I studied in the University of Buenos Aires. I have a beloved friends in the Argentina's capital. With they I traveled to the north of Cordoba, because one cousin of my friend live in San Marcos and they were to visit. The travel was a lot of time in the bus, but was very enterteining, because I knew a boy who worked in the frontier of Chile and Argentina to take out snow on the ways. When I arrived in the town my friend not yet, and I used the time for walk through San Marcos and rest in a park.
With my friends every day went to the River Quilpo and spend there a lot of time. After in the house, we talked, laughed, ate and drank until early morning. The food isn't so special in that town, either drinks, but with friends is very special all.

For that reasons and a lot of experiences, my travel in San Marcos was the best of all.

Portugal

Portugal is one of my obsession. The literature, movies, legends and its cities, have a magic unusual, very different to other places in the world. My interest for that country began with a movie's maker called Manoel de  Oliveira, an amazing artist, his films are beautiful and to describe with the camera the street and avenue of Lisboa, Oporto or Coimbra. Also, is interesting to know Manoel de Oliveira is the oldest movie's maker with live in the world (he have 104 years).
But go back to Portugal, others things I love of this country is, first, the incredible architecture. The street in the most important cities have a unavoidable characteristic of the baroque, for example: in the walls, gantry and roof. And the other thing is the literature, with names like Camilo Castelo Branco, Eza de Queiros or Fernando Pessoa, they were chroniclers of their time. Two short stories of Queiros are my favourite, "The crime of priest Amaro" and "Singularities of the blonde girl", absolutely recommend.
In my future travel for Portugal, I will walk for all street and will visit little towns, remote of the cities. I have heard the food and wines are awesome, and finally the people of portugal have good reputation.
I travel or live in portugal, is a fact that the education in this country isn't very good. And the things I want know in Portugal, are different.

I need travel very soon!!!
