Northern Lights
I´m the kind of person who thinks things a lot. I live a quiet life without big experiences and emotions, even it might be said it´s boring but when I watched a documental about Northern Lights in the North Pole , I knew that I had to go to watch it. It´s a show of the nature and I thought that I had to see it because it´s not the same in a screen that to watch it there . So I decided to turn a dream into reality.
I travelled in January, it´s the best season for this, I had lucky because of the sky was clear , so I could marvel at the beautiful colors of the sky when the sun rises in that part of the world. I was speechless due to those unique lights.
I´d recommend this experience because it makes you understand how insignificant and tiny we are in front of nature and how wonderful it´s our planet. The best things in life are free. I prefer less material goods and more experiences in my life.

The real truth
The Internet is a virtual world where you can be who you can. Of course we wish a better version of ourselves. Does someone not want to be taller, prettier or more intelligent? It is a fact that the most people lie on their online dating profiles. The target is to make a more attractive image than it really is. Maybe users of these websites or social media think that people lie and for this reason they do it too. Perhaps they wish change their reality to ensure their privacy or to feel more protected by anonymity, but I believe if you don´t tell the truth it is because it is a game for you or you don´t accept yourself.
The problem is coming later if you have to contact face to face with the another person. You can´t always lie if you really want to meet someone and to begin a relationship.
I have never lied about my image and I think I will not do it. If I am not happy with my appearance I wouldn´t upload photos myself ,in that case I would highlight other positive things about my personality.
Physical appearance is too important nowadays, though along the time beauty disappears and people is something else than a pretty face or a thin body. It is more important to be authentic, at least for me.

Correct me, please!!
We are being lucky this summer , because we haven´t still reached the common temperatures of this season here. Even I would say It´s being a bit fresh, The highest temperature until this moment has been 32 degrees, althought as all of good in this life finishes , the next week we ¨ll have 40 degree.
I usually walk an hour past half 4 or 5 times per week ,around my town so it is likely I walk around 6-7 km. , really I don´t know it. But when I practice hiking they are longer journeys about 3- 4 hours more the trip by car to arrive the route because where I live there aren´t hills or mountains. I like landscape of the North , it´s so different of the South. Mountaines, forest and around all is so green . I love it, but he happiness of the south and the sun I don¨t change for nothing.

I 've learned ...
Today I've learned a new word, thank to my friend Kina. The word is decluttering.
It means getting rid of things that you don't already need. When I take away old clothes, shoes or a lot of things from my closets to take space.
I usually do it once or twice a year, generally at the season change.

Can you undestand how I am?
I like learning, I try to do it from good and bad experiences, I catch the positive from bad times and from the good one I try to repeat them more and better. I love having a good time with friends and having interesting and funny conversatations. I must confess that I have a rather particular sense of humor. A laugh is always welcomes and if they are two better.
I can help you if you wish learn or improve your Spanish and i can learn from your English.

Shame on me not to be able to express myself better.
