Job, job, job

I think that it’s pretty early for me to know exactly what is going to be my future job. Nevertheless, I can imagine. Next year, I’m going to start a master in Paris. I chose to specialize in law and more especially in international law. Why did   I choose that? First of all, because I enjoy studying law and I think that it could be a good way to change the world. I can picture myself working for an international organization or for an organization non-governmental. One of the teachers of Inap is actually working in the United Nations as a consultant in human rights and I find it very exciting. The negative point of this kind of jobs is that there are really demanding and I’m not going to be able to develop my private life as I want to do it.

Another option would be to find a job which will give me more time to devote myself to things that I consider important in life such as family life, sport, art, nature, travels. I wouldn’t mind spending a time of my life living of littles jobs and traveling around. For now, I’m not feeling ready to jump in the active life. I’ve got two or three years of studying left, that will give me time to think!

Strike

A wave of protests is beginning to invade Chile. It’s been many years since the Chileans students are asking for an educational system based on social justice. Nowadays, Chile is a country where the inequalities are one of the biggest social issues. To go to university is a luxury. That’s why many students decided to organized demonstrations and strikes in the universities. In 2011, the movement took a serious importance with thousands of students walking in the streets but the government didn’t really react.

As a French student, I’m pretty impressed by the commitment of the Chileans students in the political life. I attended some student assemblies and I think that when the students are expressing themselves, you can feel a strong desire to find another model of society, fairer and less based on consumerism. I support the movement. The only negative point is that, to me, not going to class can be useful only I the students are actually mobilizing themselves in the university or in the street. Staying at home won’t help. Maybe the Chileans students should find other ways to mobilize themselves. Anyway, I’m going home in a month and I’m really happy to have witness this type of social mobilization. I really hope that students are going to get what they want! 

Last week, I went to a festival of cumbia at el club hipico with some friends. At the beginning of the night, we went to a pre-drink party at Camille's appartment to enjoy a few piscola before going out. Then, we walked to the club hipico and arrived there at about midnight. A lot of different bands such as Santa Feria, Chorizo Salvaje and Banda conmocion were playing this night. The club Hipico was crowed and the athmosphere was electric. At first, we made a quick visit of the place passing by the toilets of course (Camille have bben drinkink to many beers...). Then, we made our way through the crowed to go in front of the scene.

My favourite concert was the Banda Conmocion one. It was the second time that i got to see them. The first time i saw them, I was in La Maestra Vida, one of my favourite places in Santiago. Everybody was dancing, singing andclapping. It was real entertaining. I will miss la cumbia chilena back to France. I've heard that Chico Trujillo will play in August in Paris, Ill be there!!

I have been living in Paris since I was five. Living far away from mi city made me realize how much I love it and how incredible it is. In this article, I'm going to talk about one of my favorite place in Paris. This place is a little bar called le dix bar which is situated in the latin neighborhood in the center of the city. The decoration of the place is really old-fashioned: there is a jukebox in the corner, the tables are made of wood. The regular visitors are students fond of literature and rock music.
This place is really well known for its incredible sangria.
The owner is an old man, a real chatterbox. He often comes at our tables to share a glass of sangria and make long monologues about life.
I really miss this place where we used to go almost every day after classes. If you go to Paris one day, I really recommand you this place!

First of all,  I have to say that I would like to know all the countries in the world. Unfortunately, I have to choose one in particular to write this article and i'm going to choose Algeria.

A few months ago, I invited some friends to come over and have a nice diner at my place. I have to admit that i m not the best cook in the world. Happily for me, my friend Anais offered me a hand. We had the idea to cook a couscous together. This decision didnt came out of the blue, we both have Algerian roots. Her mum was born there and my grandfather too. While making this gigantic couscous for 10 people, we had a long talk about this country, what we feel about it, what does it represent for us. Anais has family there and she went a few times. After a bottle of wine, we got excited and we decided to organized a big trip there. I never really got the chance to know my grandfather and this is for me a big chance to discover a part of me that I do not know. I think that the arabic culture is well worth discovering.

We planned to spend one month wandering in Algeria. We are also going to visit her family and eat plenty of good algerian food. I can't wait!
