S+S-G

Hello dear visitor, welcome to my blog. My name is Sebastián Simonetti-Grez (S+S-G) and I´m from Chile, South America. I currently study architecture in Universidad de Chile (4th year) and live in this great city Santiago. Some short facts about me for you to know is that i love to read, specially Julio Cortazar or history novels and that I love films (Stanley Kubrick is my favorite director).

Today I´m going to tell you in a short way how were my summer holidays this 2014. They started very late, more late than other university in the country, at December 31, new year's night. To celebrate this new year and to be at last free of classes and architecture, me and my friends of class went to El Tabo and spend there three days enjoying the sun, the beach, dancing, soccer and food. When I return to Santiago I missed the sand and the water so I took my things again and travelled to Viña del Mar with one of my best friends from childhood. We were there for ten days giving ourselves the relax that we deserve after a long year.

But this journey was expensive, so I needed to recover all the money that I´ve expended. Architecture was back and I started to work with an older friend helping him to build building models. Another friend that is my classmate also went to help. I worked two weeks, but I still don´t get the money paid! Despite of that, it was a really good experience working there, because my friend, who is already an architect, teach me a lot of tips for works at university.

When work was done, it was time for relax again. Me and my family travelled to south and spend ther for almost all February. We visited Santa Cruz in Valle Colchagua and proved some wines, then we did a long journey to Capitan Pastene, in Araucania, and there we tested their famous "pastas". The last part of the vacations we spend them in a house near Pucon in Lago Villarrica. The house was not in the city itself, it was in the middle of the forest in the northeast part of the lake, so it was very peaceful and we enjoyed food, the view, sleeping and the nature all together. Another friend of my childhood came to visit me and spend a few days with us. When the month was getting over and March was approaching, we returned to Santiago.
