ANIMALS AND ENVIRONMENT

The animals were here before us, (in earth) we are taking over their home which is earth, because we are destroying it, we see it everyday, the buses that release smoke and sometimes is black smoke the worst of it! It affects the mother earth and also it affects our health, why do you think cancer is taking over everyone? Also, the factories they realease smoke all day everyday all over the world. Then we have the trash, sometimes we throw our trash to the floor and that is wrong. Sometimes big companies throw their trash to the ocean or the sea, that is so wrong, it kills and affects the animals in the sea, sometimes the animals die and that is so sad and unfair. Animals don't have a voice. The abuse of animals is so unfair and not human, I've seen videos of sea world, they abuse violently of the whales, also in the circus they abuse of elephants and tigers and all the animals they have there. The animal testing is also a reality in many products we use, a little animal suffered from that (mostly bunnies) they have them locked in at laboratories and they never get to see the sun, it's so unfair and sad why would we do that to little animals? I have products that say ''Not tested on animals''. THAT'S AMAZING! I'm so happy a little animal didn't suffered from that. Why can't all the companies be like that? You don't have to abuse or kill an innocent animal. Then you have the hunt. Stupid people hunt animals for fun just to eat them and other stuff. That's so unnecesary. Also the fur in the clothes. Why kill an animal so you can wear it? It's not cool and it's murder. There's alot of violent acts from us the humans toward our animals on earth, i wish I could just stop it and everyone understands that if we continue doing this the animals will extinct. This situation is really sad and I wanted to write about it because it is one of the things that bothers me the most about our earth: the abuse of animals :(

RUTA DEL VINO



HEY! Looking for a place to hang out with your friends while having a good wine, a nice view and nice food? Guess I have the answer for you:

LA RUTA DEL VINO

La Ruta del Vino is the coolest place you'll ever find in Baja California, it's full of activities, places to drink and eat, and the view is amazing. I'll tell you about it. 

Valle de Guadalupe. It is the Heart of the Wine Route, about 40 kilometers northwest of Ensenada, about 3 hours from Mexicali. If you want to go, they are tours each weekend and they are very inexpensive. What are you waiting for?

La ruta del vino has about 15 houses of wine: Encuentro de Guadalupe, Baron Balche, El Cielo, Finca Altozano, L.A Cetto, Chateau Camou, Bodegas Santo Tomas and many other more.

If you want to know more and book a hotel at Ruta del vino here is the link:

El Cielo is my favorite it is an amazing place where you can live the moment with your loved ones, they have nice food which is gourmet and they have alot of wine! Also you can order chamgane they also have alot of them. After you're done eating you can go and take pictures of the amazing views they have and the sunset is amazing, is like a dream, and they have goodies that you can shop from, they have jewerly, things like shampoo and soaps made out of wine, things for wine, clothing and many more!
If you want to go to nice restaurants the best ones are the firewood pizza ¨Ochentos¨ which is an amazing little place where you can enjoy the best pizza in town, also you can enjoy ¨Corazon de Tierra¨ there you can eat super gourmet food and it is pretty good.

Here´s a map

What I learned this week

This week I learned different types of diagrams of tables in which you can take notes and be easier to catch the words of a topic. It was super intersting because I learned that you can create different diagrams to help my studying and all that learning stuff. Also we learned how to identify them, it was pretty fun! We also learned vocabulary words, the one I didn't knew was ¨budget¨ now I know what it is!

My classmates and I presented a lecture about different topics of turism. Magui and I presented one that was pretty cool because it was how to travel step by step. We gave our classmates some tips so when they travel they don't make a mess out of it! I also learned what flashpacking was because we read some about it and it was interesting because the reading told us that flashpacker was a person that wanted to explore the world but has the money to move around in all types of transport, and a backpacker is the same but without the money.

Travelling

What I learned this week at English class

HI
What I learned this week is first of all: we finally get to learn what tourism means in English terms, because we opened the book (well Ms. Julia did because not everyone in the class has a book). Ms. Julia presented us in the TV some terms that we need to learn, like more English vocabulary so that we don¨t run out of words at the time we are writing essays or something, also to expand our vocabulary and make it more professional. We also learned what are we gonna get if we study turism, like traveling alot and meeting new people. We are also preparing for the TOEFL so that we can do great in the exam.

So in a small rewiew we learned what tourism is and the benefits about studying it, also we learned the definition of hospitality.

The city I would love to visit

The city I would love to visit

I would love to visit Machu Picchu. It is actually in my bucklet list or my before I die list! I think it would be an amazing experience to go there and watch the mother nature beauty. I would be amazed, also I would like to parachuting there, i mean, i don't think they allow me to ha, but that would be something else! 

I mean, look at this, now imagine it looking at it with your own eyes and being there with the nice weather and with the people you love, that would be an actual dream. 

Macchu Picchu is located in Peru, and the mountain has museums and tours. So I guess that would be really expensive so I need to save and study so I can work really hard in the future to have the money and go to MACCHU PICCHU! I guess that's my inspiration. Wouldn't you like to visit this amazing wonder of the world?

The reason I'm here

The reason I'm here..

One of the questions (at the moment) I get asked about the most, but that question makes me really think why. I guess it's because GLION is different than the other careers in Mexico, plus it is a very cool thing that it has some kind of Switzerland program, that's pretty fancy, isn't it? 

SO, the reason I'm actually here is because I want to learn everything about gastronomy + tourism. WHY? Because I love to travel and discover new places, explore and at the same time discover the beautiful art of gastronomy, so I can open my own bussiness, like restaurants and stuff like that. 

It's also amazing that I get to go out of this small town 2 times in the semester! So far I like it and I love it. I really hope I get to learn all about gastronomy and tourism.
