In the summer of 2008 (when I was 10 years old) with my parents we went on vacation to two different places, but for me it was the best to know Easter Island or Rapa Nui, which is an island located in Polynesia, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and 5 hours and a half flying from Santiago.

We were there for a week, enough to tour the island well because it is not very big. It only has one town and unlike other Polynesian islands; it has few beaches, but it does not take away how pretty it is.


We did many activities, of course we went to a beach (Anakena beach), but we also saw the famous moais (you can find them everywhere on their altars), we went to two quarries, where they made the pukao (moai hats) and where they made the moais. Furthermore, our travel coincided with the Tapati celebration.


This trip is especial because I knew another part of Chile and another culture with my family, now we hardly travel together, I usually just do it with my mom. In addition to this, my favorite activity was watching the sunrise through the Ahu Tongariki.

I have gone to Japan for many years, since I was a child and I hope that my dreams come true someday.  My love to this country started when I began to watch anime (maybe is the most common cause), but over time I discovered other aspects of their culture that it is very different from ours.

If I go to Japan I like to do many activities, for that I will stay in the country a long time, a month or two, because I do not only want to visit the capital, Tokyo, but also other cities for the purpose of knowing as well as possible.  I wish taste their characteristic dishes like ramen, okonomiyaki and the typical sushi, on traditional restaurants, not the touristic. Anyway, eat as they eat. Besides, I would love to know the temples, walk through Shibuya (it is an iconic place), go to the Nara park (where you can see a lot of deer and you can give them food) and perhaps use a kimono.


If possible, I want to travel during the Japanese spring, because hanami happens (when cherry blossoms bloom).
