The photo was taken by Ricardo Alfieri, argentine photographer of a well-known newspaper in his country called El Gráfico. The moment took place in the final of the 1978 Argentina World Cup, the match was won by the home team 3-1 against the Netherlands.  It was a highly questioned tournament because Argentina was under a military dictatorship and it is said that they rigged matches in the second phase so that their classic rival Brazil would not be finalist. Anyway, the photo portrays the exact moment when goalkeeper Fillol embraces his defender Tarantini and at that precise moment he is approached by Victor Dell' Aquila, who did not have both arms but was very eager for a hug that ended up being quite a strong image for the fans. The photo is known as El Abrazo del Alma, Victor's story begins when he was a child and had an accident on a light pole, he climbed and held on with his right hand grabbing a wire that ended up passing electricity, then with his left hand tries to ge

 I don't think I have a buck list specifically but if I think about it a little bit, I have some things that I put as a priority because they depend on me. One of the first activities would be to travel and also to learn new skills totally different from what I normally do and to keep myself in good health in general.  I think they all have their difficulty to do them, this year I proposed to travel twice in the year to my city which is in Peru and it involved a lot of effort and stress because I combined studying and working, although now I can say that I did it, these trips will leave me bankrupt, haha.   I learned to fully use the drill and its accessories, I think it is positive to learn how to use any tool because it can get you out of trouble at the least thought moment. Maybe something I have pending is to take the driving test, but that will be when I finish classes because I will have more time. I try to keep myself in good health, having a good diet and doing sports since

Hi everyone, one of the series that I loved and would watch more than once would be Breaking Bad, it's my favorite series after Dawson's Creek.  I like it because the plot involves you from the moment you watch it, the characters evolve chapter by chapter and you end up empathizing or hating some of them for their different decisions, it also presents many real situations in the world of drug trafficking obviously with differences because it's located in the United States, they use characters of Latin origin that are important, they speak Spanish in the development of the series and show certain data from countries in the region as well as their food. You also learn chemistry in a didactic way, very different from school and it's in the guinness record ranking with a rating of 99 out of 100.  I like suspense series, horror, police, any series that has a good plot and a good development of its characters is attractive to me.  The series that I have pending and that I wil

Among some changes that, in my opinion, would be positive for students and professors, are to renew the computers both in the editing rooms as well as in those where professors teach. If we talk about the cameras of the FCEI, it seems to me that the renovation is not so urgent. I think it is necessary to have licenses for photo or video editing programs since we do not always have the possibility of paying for them and the faculty facilities do not currently have these basic programs for audiovisual teaching. As for the curriculum, it would be good to open spaces for dialogue between faculty officials and students to know if they adhere or remove courses to be in accordance with the current demands, since we will go to the labor market where we must be prepared for the demands, although it is true that we have spaces like the radio to practice on a voluntary basis, the University of Chile has channels on different platforms where you could cover from sports events to cultural events th

One of the vacations that I remember the most was last year in the middle of the pandemic, I had the opportunity to visit an oasis located in the coastal desert of Peru, its specific name is La Huacachina. I was in this region called Ica, about 3 days, it was not enough for what the place offered but I had a great time in the company of my girlfriend.  We got to know the dunes where we went for a ride in some carts called tubulars that were special for this terrain. We also practiced sandboarding as it was part of the adventure although at the beginning I felt dizzy but then everything flowed normally, we also tasted the local food and drank a lot of wine and pisco as it is native to this place.  It has been one of the best places I have visited and I remember it very much because it was a desire of both of us to know La Huacachina, it combined tranquility with extreme sports and good food, that if you have to be careful always being in the center of the city because there are many rob

One of the countries I would like to visit is Australia, because according to what is known, they pay good salaries, you can study and work in case you have a student visa and the quality of life is one of the most important within the developed countries.  I know that in that country there is a lot of biodiversity, they have one of the most peculiar animals in the world like the platypus and in this territory there are a lot of kangaroos.  I would like to know its most important cities such as Canberra, Sydney and Melbourne. Among the destinations that call my attention is the Lone Pine Koala Sanctury, which apart from being a well-known zoo in the country, is also the largest reserve of koalas in the world. Another important destination is the Sydney Opera House which is a place where recitals are given but also draws attention for its architecture as it is considered a world heritage site according to Unesco.  In case of traveling to this place, I would like to study and work, altho
