Although it's difficult to choose a favorite photo, I think this one deserves the spot. It was summer 2023, and my family and I were on vacation in a landscape in Curacautin in the South of Chile. One morning, I woke up and saw a beautiful sunrise. The sky was a brilliant blue, the sunlight illuminated the cordillera de las andes, the trees, and the green grass. And you cant appreciate from the photo but there was a beautiful bird song. As I admired the beautiful landscape, I couldn't help but take this beautiful photo, which captures the essence of summer in the south. That's why it's my favorite photo. It reminds me of the best moments of summer, the time with my family, and the calm and peace that the south of Chile provides.  With this photo, I remind myself that it's important to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us and to take care of it.

In today’s blog, I’ll tell you about my favorite technological artifact, the washing machine. That metal thing saves us a lot of time and allows us to perform more than one task at a time.  It is my favorite technological device since without it we would have to spend a lot of time on clothes, between wetting them, scrubbing them, and rinsing them to get the detergent well, with each garment. Instead, with the washing machine, you just need to select a lot of clothes, put it in the washing machine, put some detergent on it, press some buttons, and that's it, between 40 and 45 minutes your clothes will be clean. And think that in those 40 minutes, you can be doing something else and not be staring at the washing machine, as I am while I am writing this blog my clothes are washing.  For these reasons, I recommend you use the washing machine or if you already use one, start to appreciate it more, because it makes the work we must do much easier.
