Career related... Kind of.


The webpage that I would like to talk about is Scielo, and this is the link: http://www.scielo.cl/

Scielo is a webpage that basically is a Scientific Electronic Library Online (That is what it actually says in the web). I used to go there a lot more in my other career, because we had the ABP system there (Apredisaje basado en problema), and we used to read and need papers for every class. I don’t use it that often now, but still helps me when I'm in need of a paper. 

I like that I can look there and have a reliable source of information without going to the big libraries online (Like Medline in the health area, a database that I used a lot), but I like it especially because it has papers in Spanish (More than the rest of the databases) and you can put the page in Spanish as well.




You can search by author, subject or key words. In general is a good place to start an investigation and a good place to go back when your are lost in all the information available in english.

A picture of my life.

This picture is special for me because that place right there is my home, or at least it was my home when I was little (until I was 4 years old, that was the time when I had to go live in Temuco for school). I used to live in the countryside of Chile, with my parents and my great-aunt. It was an interesting time for me, my parents were still together, I learned everything from them, and even if I didn’t had that many friends (Because there wasn’t any child near my home), my cousins used to go see me at my birthday and other important dates.

When I was little, the house used to look bigger...




This picture was taken by me, but a year ago. The house collapsed with the earthquake in 2010 and now no one can live there. I miss it, and I wish my brother was alive at that time, so he could have the experience of living there with me, but he was born when we already where living in Temuco.

My great-aunt passed away four years ago, I miss her as well too.


This is were the house is located.
