About Franz Boas

        Hello! This is the last post I will upload, because the course ends and there is no more to do u.u Today I will talk about Franz Boas, who was born in Minden, Westphalia on July 9, 1858, and died in New York on December 21, 1942. He studied at the University of Heildelberg and received his doctorate at the University of Kiel in 1881. In 1899 He was appointed professor at Columbia University. Franz Boas is known for his work studying the Kwakiutl Indians in northern Vancouver (Canada), which allowed him to establish a new concept of culture and race, as well as one of the most influential anthropological currents: cultural relativism. In addition, Boas was one of the most prominent opponents of the ideas of scientific racism, very popular at that time, who defended race as a biological concept and claimed that human behavior was explicable through the typology of biological characteristics. I like this anthropologist sin...

My animalssss

Hi again! Today I will write about of animals! I have ten animals in my house, five cats, three birds, one hamster and a puppy. My house isn't big, but the space is enough for my family and my animals. I think that if didn't exist mys pets, my life didn't be equal. Luna, my baby, without her my life would be completely different. I love her to infinity.  With relation to the animals in zoológicos I think that not is correct that they spend their lives in captivity, they should be free. Nor do I think that the coats should be made of furs, they aren't born for that, they are born to be free and not to be exploited by us to satisfy the whims of people without brains. If I could be an animal, I would choose to be a wolf, because their are very loyal, protect their family against any danger and I really like that animal. As always, thanks for reading!

My Future Postgraduat.

Hello again! Today I write about the course I would like to take after finishing my Anthropology career and specializing in Archeology. I would like to study theater because I have always been attracted to the performing arts and I would like to carry out this in the United States, because it is a country characterized by having great theater schools, such as Juilliard or the American Conservatory Theater, where graduated great actors and actresses like Winona Ryder <3 When I was little I used to love acting in school and I dreamed of playing some of the Disney princesses. My favorite was Ariel and I wanted to have red hair like her. I remember that once my parents bought me a microphone and a toy camera to act in front of her hahahaha I would do the part-time course to work part of the day and pay the necessary expenses. I really hope to achieve this that attracts me since 10 years and that I now see as possible to realize due to the many opportunities that exist today, so as not t...

My future work.

Hello everyone!!! Today I will write about my future work ... Well, I would love to work as an archaeologist doing research in different parts of the world. I imagine working outdoors and traveling a lot! My dream is that traveling is an essential part of my work, because I would like to know different places in the world from the archaeological perspective, other cultures and other people. For the same reason, my ideal type of work would be in the field. I would like to work to help society, so I do not worry about working for someone or something specific, my idea is to contribute to the world. That's why I'm not worried about salary, just knowing different places in the world will make me happy. I have a strange dream hahaha: conduct research in Chernobyl ... Yes! In Chernobyl! The place where there was a nuclear explosion and that is apart from all human development today. I would like to find relationships in what was, what is today and what will be. Inv...

My favorite cartoons.

Hello everyone! Today I will write about my favorite cartoon series ... Aaaaand this is "Gravity Falls: A summer of mysteries" hahahaha I love this series with all my life !!! A long time ago I did not find a series of monkeys that completely conquered me and this one did it. Gravity Falls is an animated television series created by Alex Hirsch in the years 2012 and 2014 for Disney Channel and later it began to be transmitted by Disney XD. The story tells of the holidays of two twin brothers Dipper and Mabel Pines, who are going to vacation at the cabin of their uncle Stan in Oregon, in a town called Gravity Falls, where they will immerse themselves in solving riddles that will appear daily in the place , because there paranormal and supernatural things happen. I love this series because it contains a lot of mystery and things within itself that make you think a lot, besides it covers topics that are not very talked about at present but that many people kno...

The best vacations.

Hello everyone again! Today I will tell you about my best holidays :) My best holidays were this year 2018! In January I went to my grandmother's house, like every summer, which is located from San Gregorio to the mountain range. This is a small town where approximately 1,500 inhabitants live and where almost everyone is my family hahaha. I was two weeks, the first with my mother, brother, uncles and aunts,  cousins, grandmother and many more people in the family. We had a great time because we went to the pool every day, played cards, watched movies, ate delicious things all day and laughed a lot.  On the other hand, the second week, my mother, brother, grandmother and I, so we invited my boyfriend and a friend of my brother. That was how we had an amazing time! We did the same as with my cousins, because there were others of them and I had to take care of my little cousin who accompanied us on all sides and followed our ideas. These were my best v...

My wonderful childhood.

Hello everybody!! !  Today I write about my childhood.  When I listen to songs by Silvio Rodríguez I remember when I was little and my dad every weekend mornings played his music on the computer.   From these moments I started to like the "Nueva Trova Cubana" and when I listen to it I always go back to those mornings where everything was simple and I didn't have big responsibilities, just playing and doing basic tasks. My first childhood memory is when be borned my brother. I remember that I slept in the house of my grandma and in the morning my dad was to wake me up in order to go to know to my brother! I was really excited because I'd have someone to play with. This is also my favorite childhood memory. Another memory that I love to evoke is when I learned to read. I told my parents that if they gave me the book "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" I would learn to read and write, because I loved that fantasy world. And so it was,...
