Architects building a better world?

 My career is a little bit misunderstood in matters of making the world a better place. A lot of people usually don´t really think that architecture is a good career for doing that, because build things like big buildings in most cases it involves damage to the environment, but I believe that idea comes from property development companies who work for fast solutions and recently have increased their values excessively, bringing discontent of people. 

I like to think that gives a beautiful and confortable place to live to the people is the mainly reason of wanted to be an architect, and that includes helping to make dreams come true, from a luxurius house to a decent place to live built with minimal resources. I also hope connect with the clients in the process and understand all of their needs and wishes to achieve a result that leaves us both happy.

I. A country you would like to visit

Rhône Glacier, Obergoms. one of the existing ice tunnels in switzerland. Swiss Alps, from Zermatt. a ride on the Gornergrat railway. Switzerland is probably the most beautiful place out of Chile that I know. It´s true that this country has a lot of diversity of landscapes, but If I have to choose, without a doubt I would live in Swiss.  Actually, a few years earlier, I couldn´t really explain my obsession with that country, but after all the researching, finally I can say where it came from my fascination for Switzerland. At first, all I know was about the Swiss Alps, and I really in love with them, but later, I also discovered that is a very sustainable country, and their streets had found the perfect balance between the rivers or lakes, and the urbanism raising. Their inhabits also value the nature existing and have the consciousness that maybe we had lost.  I also can say that they have a lot gems of architecture, like their bridges or churches which I obviously want t...

II. My best Holidays

To be honest, I consider myself as a lucky girl. I know, maybe it sounds better to have travelled to other countries, but I just really love the diversity of Chile landscapes. I don´t like to focus on bad things, like the fact that the only country else that I know is Argentina, and I visited on my study tour.  The really best travel that I had was in the last year winter. I went with my dad to the Austral Highway. In fact, we don´t usually agree on many things, but If I have to give him the credit for something, is his effort to make me happy, and I really really enjoy travel, and we have a lot of stories about it, but this is the best.  I recognize that trip specifically was stressful at previous weeks, because I had to be in charge of so many procedures, like the exams of covid and even buy the plane tickets, but I was really enthusiastic to know that place, and I ended making a whole itinerary, with the most iconic places to visit and which one of them we should knew firs...

III. My dream job

In case you think I’m studying just for fun, well I’m not. I hope that my career gives me a good economic situation to live well. I´m not specially ambitious about it, but if comes abundantly it´s even better. In any case, that’s not the most important part. I’m gonna be an architect in a few years (even though it seems like an eternity). My main expectations includes creative things, enjoying work with hands, propose innovative things and has a good team to build occupiable spaces. For doing all those things, plus the knowledge of the area, I need to develop through experience making assignments, which I do here in the university. I don´t  really had investigated about all the available majors, maybe I would like to take something related to urbanism, but there are other areas that I like about being architect too. Truly, I don’t think the job is something to make a dream, but I always like to be a contribution in the society. If I can do something for someone, I´ll be joyful. And...
