Post 4: Permaculture

 What is permaculture?

Honestly, I had no idea until I watch the video, or maybe I had an idea of ​​what it was but I didn't know it was called permaculture. I think permaculture can be a really good method to help the environment. All around the world, people overexploit the soil, they don´t care about the damage that this can cause, they just care about production and money.

I think this topic is very interesting, specially because we can use organic matter to condition the soil, and what could be better than organic matter to our soil? Probably nothing. If we start promoting permaculture, we would help our environment a lot, and we could be pioneers for bigger farmers, because for what I understood it’s something that takes time to implement.

 After I watch the video, I looked up more about this topic on the internet and Chile would be a pretty good place to implement it, but the problem, in my opinion, is that farmmers doesn´t have enough time to implement it, and ordinary people probably doesn´t have enough land, so I think permaculture is something that you have to implement with time and patience to make it work.

Post 3: Covid-19

 COVID-19, what a horrible situation! I don’t know how I haven´t lost my mind yet, all this stuff going on it’s really hard to digest. On 2019 I took a sabbatical year because I had no idea about what to study and I was really excited about this year: start college, meet new people, new experiences and all of that it´s happening through a screen. I’m really pissed about it but I know it’s the best option because this is a really serious situation  guys. In my house everyone has chronical diseases so we are very careful with this situation. My sister is a nurse and she tested positive about 3 months ago but fortunately she and her family only experienced  symptoms flu. I miss going to the café and eat tons of churros with my grandmother or have lunch with my dad at our favourite restaurants, I think that´s the first thing I’ll do when this end, I really hope it ends. It´s funny that my brain thinks that on January 1st everything will end, like 2020 never happened. Would be great, wouldn´t?
