My future job

 I sincerely have no idea about my dream job and maybe it is because I would like to do so many things related to journalism and at this moment I consider them all. I'm not a person who has a very clear idea about what job want in the future, but if I have the opportunity I would like to work in different areas,  maybe sports, fashion, travel or even in a communication department in some company. If I have to imagine myself working in sports journalism, I know in Chile it is very difficult if you are a woman but in my dreams I have the opportunity to be in Europe doing the cover of Formula 1 or UEFA Champions League.

My favorite TV show is Grey's Anatomy, currently is the longest-running medical TV drama of all time with 18th seasons and renewed for a 19th season. Shonda Rhimes created the show in 2005 and it's still one of the most popular series on US television.

If I'm honest, I think I hav

A person who I would like to meet is the journalist and prize-winning writer, Svetlana Alexievich. This Belarusian woman (since 1991 before that date she was Soviet) was born in 1948, in a Ukrainian-Bielarus family who influenced her to be a school teacher but she started at a young age to work as a reporter for a local paper in Narovl.  Later she became in a professional journalist when she received her degree in Minsk University. One of the things why I admire her is the way she writes. At the moment, she has written essays, novels, stories and articles for different media, all of them with the particularity of being written with a big approximation to the real life. She helps the reader to almost be the principal character when they read what she wrote. It is fascinating how we can almost see with our own eyes the story she brings to us. Her work is so meticulous in the moment to take the reality to paper and that is not a simple thing to do, it requires passion and a big knowledge
