A Chilean Landmark


This building was built in 275 days and meant a record time in 1971 and the citizens participated in the design, I think it was a milestone in Latin America with its modern architecture. It was located in front of the Alameda, in the outskirts of the Catolica subway station. 

The building functions as a cultural center and I think it is very particular for its size, height and operation because it always has activities scheduled all the time. And I think there are no others with its characteristics. 

The building has an excellent cafeteria to study, as well as a restaurant and plenty of space to stay. At one point I went there very often to the "Café Público" because I liked to meet to study in the cafeteria. In there place are many tables for co-work ,a sofa and at all times there are  people working or studying in silence. But in the last time i prefer the  universisty because we have a new space for do it. Although the last time when i went was a few days ago but alone and i went to study all afternoon and ordered a coffee.

Well, getting back to de building i like it because is a good public activator for the neighbors and the citizenship. You can saw expositions or a teather play, drink a coffee or dof anything in there big public space.

I think is a beatifull building and  are next to our and adapted very well for the next place Las Tarreas who have a very difent sacle. 

For teh last, i think maybe we can go as class to there and have the class and conversation in there, why not? hahaha

Although, especially in hot weather I like to do any activity, for example playing cards on the grass, cooking, reading, chatting in a square in the afternoon. However, my favorite outdoor activity is "mochilear" or camping.  And well, this activity includes several of the above mentioned activities, for example trekking or doing anything outdoors. I really like "mochilear" because i enjoy contemplating the landscapes, learning about trees, getting to know places, rivers, lakes and different routes and people. I enjoy a lot do it.   I also enjoy setting up the tent and cooking in the mornings or by the light of the fire.  I have had the opportunity to get to know the south camping and having to "deo" to get to the destinations. I remember the last trip that was this summe

  Gastón Soublette: @ gastonellugar  An interesting person I follow on Instagram is called Gaston Soublette a 96 year old Chilean philosopher and musicologist. Probably his social networks are not managed by him, but the content posted is from him like small videos talking about some topic, or reminders of talks he will be giving. Gaston won the recognition and national prize of humanities for his critical thinking and search for cultural dissemination on the "folklore" or on the cultures of other continents.  I do not remember well when I started to follow him, but I remember having seen a documentary about him "The wise man of the tribe" where were sample the good form his wisdom, a characteristic for which Gaston is recognized. I remember that in one part of the documentary he talked about a tree where he liked to sit in the afternoons, where he liked to reflect and enjoy the silence, to get there he had to take a walk and thus he felt connected to the essence of
