POST 5

Hello.

Well, after I graduate at forestry engineer, I do not want to take a major because I was studying for a lot of years of my life, but maybe I can take a major once I'm older and I felt with more different experiences like take a job related with forestry.

 I'm open to any job during my life, but one of the jobs that I'll like to do is the management of native forest. My strengths in management of native forest are the ecosystem view that I have about forests, so management it's like a kind of gardener, but with a wider knowledge about the forest functions and interaction, so all the decisions that I'll take while gardening are going to be in harmony with the entire place. I prefer to do this job in the south of the country, because I really love the vegetation that we have in the south and their landscapes.

 Managing the forest you can see big changes in the landscape, but sometimes the changes are long term changes and other times they are short term, so you can see the client instantly happier. Another reason why I want to do management in the forest is that you spend a lot of time outdoor, inside on the forest.

Hope see you next week!

Hello!

Today I’m going to talk to you about a magic and powerful cactus called “San Pedro”.

Echinopsis pachanoi, known as San Pedro Cactus, is a cactus native to the Andes Mountains at 2000 – 3000 meters in altitude. It has a long story of being used in Andean traditional medicine, it has been used for healing and religious divination in the Andes for over 3000 years, maybe cause it has the powerful alkaloid called “Mescaline”, that is psychedelic drug and entheogen.

This Cactus is really beauty, that’s why it is widely grown in the world as an ornamental cactus, it has a huge white flower that really calls anybody attention and can grow a lot of them.

In the other hand, it’s really easy to propagate, if you have a San Pedro cactus you only need to cut in medium pieces and replant it in the ground. When you propagate by cuttings you are cloning the cactus, so all of the pieces are the same living organism. That’s crazy, imagine we can clone ourselves and live in various bodies at the same time. 😲

So I invite you to cultivate one of this magical cactus, to be protected with energy of the Andean millenaries ancestors.

See you next week, bye.

One of my bests holidays was in 2014’s summer.

In these holidays I went  to  “Cochamo”, this was a big valley surrounded of bigs mountains of granite, these mountains looks likes really huges solid rocks with the size of a mountain, its similar to Yosemite granite’s formations. One of the bests things is that you only can reach that place by trekking four hours in Cochamo river’s valley, so you feel really disconnected from the civilization and anywhere that you look there is a beautiful landscape that massage your brain with a pleasure feeling. On the other hand you don’t have problems with the most important thing for a human body, water. Cochamo is a place full of rivers and streams where you can drink delicious and cold water, so it’s difficult to die desidrated.  Also it was the paradise for rock climbers and trekkers, so when  I went to this place I spend one month knowing and climbing the place, these was really relaxing, funny and enriching holidays. It was really shocking leaved this place after one month living there, I felt sadly but I knewn that Im gonna come back.
