My favourite book and film

I'm always feeling like I need to read some new kind of books. In fact, I love a lot of stories like thriller, sweet pink romance, sci-fi, etc. Talking about movies, it's the same for me, I love all kind of movies with a few exceptions, like a lot of actual animated movies for children and it's live action versions.

The book I love the most is one written by Lauren Kate, it's called "Fallen" and it has also a saga of 4 books that talk about the main character and other 2 additional books that explain some of the hidden stories inside the whole saga. It talk about the story of Lucinda "Luce" Price, a girl that is sent to a school -sort of prison- called "Sword & Cross" in Savannah, Georgia after she has been accused from killing her boyfriend. There she met Daniel Grigori, a very handsome boy that interest her with no good reasons and she think that she knows him from other place. Daniel is the most important angel in heaven and he's condemned to fall in love with the same girl every 17 years and see her die. Lucinda is a mortal girl that HAS NO IDEA OF WHO SHE REALLY IS and across of all her reincarnations she has to discover a lot of things. I recommend this book because it shows the love as a "love against the clock" and it's very attractive the way the story flows with unexpected actions and consequences that make it a very interesting book. I read it in 2014 and I also have completed the whole saga.

It shows us the story of a bamboo cutter married that hasn't children that find a little girl inside a blowing bamboo shoot. From the beginning he thought she was a divine presence so he took her and with his wife have rised as if she's their daughter and they almost always called her "Princess". They gave her the nickname of Takenoko (means little bamboo). When the man went to the grove to work, he found some gold, fine clothes and he starts planning to make her become a real princess. When she has become a young lady, she has an impossible love with a friend, Sotemaru, but her parents took her to the town, where she has her own mansion repleted with servants and her father got her the formal name of Princess Kaguya and make her got married. 5 nobleman try to get her attention by comparing her beauty with some mytical treasures. Then the princess said she would marry with the first man that bring the treasure for her. One of them refuses to make it because it was an impossible task. The end of the movie I'll leave it on your own eyes to see it. It's interesting because isn't like all the animated movies I've seen before, the kind of drawing are like the ancient japanese art, the moves of the characters are magical and fast to express all the feelings and the emotions. Unexpected, I love the tale as much as I love the movie. I do recommend this movie (and tale) a lot because it leaves you a message that says:
the most simple things make your life better than having all the things you think you need.

My best holyday EVER


The best holyday in my life was when my boyfriend and I have visited Valparaiso together. I told him, and he accepted with too much emotion and joy.

We got there in February 8th of this year and we stayed there for 8 days. It was a very romantic week to stay there by ourselves and enjoy our time together. We stayed in a hostel called "Licanantay".  We go out every day to make tours of the city. We visited the port, where we could see those huge ships that transport containers with various products from different parts of the world and Chilean products exported abroad.

We also went to the Plaza Sotomayor, climbed the elevator "El Peral” and walked the Cerro Alegre. By the way, the colorful architecture and gardens gave it the name of Cerro Alegre. It was the best holyday of my life because it made me fall in love with Valparaiso and its hidden places, and it made me love a lot more my partner of adventures.
