Mountains

I have been planning my summer vacation for 2018 since last year because my mountain club is planning a commemorative activity to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first ascent of the main Paine Horn in the Torres del Paine National Park, which is our property. With my club, we are planning 3 sports activities, the first is to climb the Almirante Nieto hill or the Amistad hill or both; The second activity is to ascend the main Horn of Paine; And the third activity is an expedition inside the southern ice field of Patagonia. Being realistic, I will participate in the first activity, because my experience does not allow me to practice in a very safe way an ascent to a hill with traditional climbing or cross a glacier, and these activities require a lot of equipment that I do not have. Thinking about climbing the hill Amistad in Torres del Paine excites me because this hill does not have a published ascent, and if we can get its summit, we can publish your route and be your first as...

I don't know if it counts like a subject, but on this semester, I've joined on an investigation laboratory to starts my unity of investigation, which belongs to my study plan.  There I'm on charge of a PhD student who works on his thesis making transgenic plants, using techniques of genetic modification with bacteria in plants, developing resilient plants to saline culture, looking for the genes responsible in the stress on them when they are cultivated in this type of medium, in models of Arabidopsis, tomatoes, kiwi, and tobacco. In the lab I learned how works genetic engineering; and techniques for add genes inside the genome of some organisms, in vitro culture and DNA and RNA extraction. I like this lab because I learned the process to transform plants for the interest of the researcher, and that involve adding the vector with the gene of interest on different types of bacteria, there works with E. Coli and Agrobacterium tumefaciens, and transform the ...

Gregor Johann Mendel   (20 July 1822 – 6 January 1884) was a scientist,   Augustinian   friar   and abbot of   St. Thomas' Abbey   in   Brno ,   Margraviate of Moravia . Mendel was born in a German-speaking family   in the   Silesian   part of the   Austrian Empire   (today's   Czech Republic ) and gained recognition as the founder of the modern   science   of   genetics 30 years later of his dead . Mendel's   pea   plant experiments conducted between 1856 and 1863 established many of the rules of   heredity , now referred to as the laws of   Mendelian inheritance . Mendel studied the inheritance of seven different features in peas, including height, flower color, seed color, and seed shape. To do so, he first established pea lines with two different forms of a feature, such as tall vs. short height. He grew these lines for generations until they were pure-breeding, always prod...

In big words I'm practice 3 hobbies, swimming, climbing and mountaineering.  I swim since 8 months ago, at least 2 times per week. I like swimming because I think it's a very complete sport and it's very cool participate in swimming tournaments. I practice sport climbing since 10 months ago, like 1 time per week. I like climbing because I love to give all I can in the sports and feel I will fall out it's exciting.   And my last hobby, mountaineering, I practice since more than 1 year ago. I climb like 1 mountain per month but I'm training 2 times per week for that. With this sport I was in places I never thought, and I know that places will be more. All the lasts sports I practice is because I want to climb mountains more techniques. In this year I want to learn traditional climbing and ice climbing, and currently I’m in vertical mountaineering classes for this objective. 

I'm a follower of adventure. I love to know what people does in my interest areas. In instagram I follow some people or pages of rock climbing, landscapes, travel, among others. This pic, titled ''Lost in a cloud, with the feets on the skies which slides everywhere'', was taken by Carlos Hevia a Chilean mountaineer and photographer on february, 2017 on the expedition to Southern Patagonian Ice Field by Vida Glaciar. It portraits Erick Vasquez, member of the expedition, searching the way between the maze of cracks of the ice inside the clouds.  I like this photograph because shows the lonely life that they have to live inside the glacier, in a month they are the unique group of people on the ice, they said ''When we was inside the storm, we thought there are more peope because we saw sleigh prints and we tried to find them, but was our prints. We were walking around circles''; and how it seems when someone is inside the clouds or white wind, it...

It's hard for me to choose my favorite band or musician, because my likes change every time, songs I loved many years or weeks ago, today, I can hate now. So, because I must write about this, I think the band I like for the longest time will be Moral Distraída. They play some genres like Tropical, Folk, among others and that makes me like this band, because they don't follow only one style of music and all sounds come from musical instruments, I don't say I hate pop or electro, but the most part of my time I prefer listening to something that sounds like ''real''. I have been listening to them from the end of 2015, because when I was in my father's house, in Los Angeles, he plays Biobio radio station and they choose a few songs from Moral Distraida to have in their playlist.

I love my smartphone. I can live without him, but the most of things I need to do I make it with him, like answer emails, take pictures, listen music, read and see where I am when I go to outside from the city. I love him because I'm more connected than with a laptop, and its more easier to handle something I can take with my hands than something I must have a surface to make it useful. I use it all the day, without need to watch whats happens all time, I can see all whenever I want. I don't remember when I got my first cellphone, that's happened when I was a child. So my first Smartphone than I bought, with my money, was the last year, and him was the first I've been stolen :(
