Pedro Aguirre Cerda

If there is one person that I admire a lot, it is Pedro Aguirre Cerda, he was a Chilean politician, educator and lawyer. He was born on February 6, 1879 and died on November 25, 1941. He was a deputy between 1915 to 1921 and a senator from 1921 to 1927 and president of the republic from 1938 to 1941, dying when he still had 3 years to his presidential term.

From his beginnings in politics he worried about the lower and middle class of the country, this was when he assumed as president, a period in which he promoted and sought to strengthen public education, He was in favor of increasing women's rights (the right to vote, for example). Furthermore, it created CORFO in an attempt to industrialize the country to generate better development conditions for people.

I especially like his person because he showed that he wanted to work for people, which is the purpose of every public servant. Their mottos include "To govern is to educate" and "Bread, roof and coat". The affection that people felt for him led him to receive two nicknames: "Don tinto" and "The president of the poor".

Favourite musician

In this topic it is very difficult for me to choose a favorite genre, since I was a child until now I have gone through different stages and therefore my musical tastes have varied quite a bit. Because of this I prefer to list some artists or groups that I have liked and then I will highlight which one I like the most currently.

The first band that I loved was Green Day, I was about 11 years old and although I never identified with their genre, their music was to my liking. As I grew up I was going to discover new groups or artists, the ones that have influenced me the most seem like of the Los Prisioneros, Los bunkers and Los Tres. In addition, I also like music or older styles, such as Queen, Pink Floyd and in Spanish I really like Camilo Sesto and Raphael.

Currently my favorite band is Los Tres, since I was little I like them, but this last year considered as the ones I was rediscovering, I dedicate myself to better understand the lyrics and be careful with their musicality. I think they manage to merge these two factors to the point of generating songs that captivate me, I never tire of listening to them.

A PHOTOGRAPH

I must assume I am very bad at take photos, I never was learned anything related with points of light or the types of focusing and other technical things how the ISO, but I really like to see photos, I think that is a different way of understanding to other people, since we can try to guess what the photographer felt when taking said photo.

This photo was taken by Jheison Huerta for National Geographic. The photo shows the stars of the Salar de Uyuni and was taken on November 30, 2019.

I really like this photo because I consider this image the closest to idea of "sky" or "the beyond", in addition to transmitting incredible tranquility also leaves us the impression that we are only stardust floating in nothing, or rather, in a whole.

Definitely one of my goals will be to go to the Salar de Uyuni at some point in my life.
