Ping Pong

Hi!  I'm going to talk about an anime that I watched a while ago and that I liked sooo much. This is "Ping pong: the animation", an adaptation directed by Masaaki Yuasa and based on Taiyo Matsumoto's manga.

Are just 11 chapters, made with an unconventional art style, fascinating characters and an OST which accompany perfectly every scene.

It’s about “Smile” and “Peko”, a best friends who have diferents personalities and are really good  ping pong players since were child. Already in adolescence, they're living experiences that mark them... what will happen to each one? Im gonna leave it up there, but I want to add something fundamental, throughout the story, many interesting characters appear, developing in due time and satisfactorily, making them all interconnect.

As I mentioned, one of the things that I really liked, is the music that in each chapter, invites you to merge with each scene, transmitting the experience of each character. Personally, I highlight the ED "Bokura ni tsuite" without a doubt is in my top 5 endings :).

This anime is very “human”, talks and think over constantly about topics like childhood, memories, fears, dreams, motivations, emotions and more. I think that the most relevant and enveloping aspect of this anime is that, instead of developing a dense plot or something like that, it focuses on the inner world, the reflection and constant development of all the characters; the dialogues between them and the direction their lives take according to their decisions. Those elements added with the animation and the "grayscales" there are, make it really good.

While I was writting this, I noticed me that I really loved this anime haha. I invite to you to watched it, I hope you’ll like it<3

Hi! Today I’ll recommend to you the Remedios Varo’s art

She was an artist, a surrealist writer and painter. Cat lover, with a reflexive personality and interesting story of life.

Her artistic work is full of mistery and details that seem hide many secrets. Each element that compose her paints, are mixed and give that woven misterious as a result.

For me, her art is a mixture between mental and spiritual sides, at the same time. Also, each form, color and face expresión that are inside the paint, have a sort of narrative behind that invite you to explore  it. Other interesting aspect of Remedios’art is that she searched transfigurate the woman image, giving her a principal role and alternatives representations.

In all the paintings, you can get lost and find yourself. It’s like opening a door that connects to a part of the soul, where words cannot do justice to describe well the senses. Everything there is mixture: like a string that connect the mystic, mental, oniric and terrenal roads

If you didn't know about the art of Remedios, I invite you to look at. I hope you like it and transport you to an interesting and new places.

The best holiday that I have had

Hi! I Will  tell you about the best holiday that I have had.

It was in summer of 2018. We went -for a week- with my scout group to Rupumeica, ubicated in fourteenth region. We camping in a beatiful natural place.

The days was like: In the morning, we waked up and inmediatly we would went to river to bath, I still remember, we have a lot of fun in that cold water. Later, we ate and did some activities.

During afternoon, we used to do long walks to anywhere. Sometimes, we went to Ranco lake; other times, visit diferent places, one of these called it Maqueo, -good place to visit- and when If we were more tired than other days, we simply spent our time in the river or doing something relax.

When the night fell, we used to do bonfires, and arround it, we danced, talked or simply were playing cards. Also, we used to use flashlights to play or explore. But, my favorite activity was laying back on grass and see the sky,  it was very clean so, you could see many things like satellites, stars and some shooting stars.

One day, we wanted to know a place in particular. So, we prepared some snacks and went to adventure. Was a long trek. We were like 3 hours walking, losing us and crossing diferent places. When arrived -completly muddy xD-, we saw a pretty waterfall. With friends, climbed until the top and the landscape we saw and the sounds that we heard there, was simply wonderful.

In those days, I became inmortal to insects bites, -we went in horseflies season-.  I learned so much, cooked many delicious food, I had long talks  with friends in the tent and more.  

I really loved that place and moments, I would like to come back there someday.

Some friends from there <3

A country I would like to visit

Hi everyone!

Today, im going to talk about the countries where I would like to visit: Iceland and Japan

I´d like to begin with Iceland. Since a lot of time I want to visit it or -in the best case- live there. My principal reason is for the wonderful nature landscapes what is there and the chance to see polar lights.  Also, is a quiet country and its people have a good life. The only problem is the ultra-cold weather, bc I´m so sentitive to cold  D:

The other is Japan. I think that´s a country super interesting, with a history, landscapes, technology, art and many topics magnetics to me and that I need to meet in person.

One of my reasons to travel to Japan is because I love read manga and watch anime. So, would be amazing visit it and recognize the most places or references that -due to fiction- has given me a lot of great moments and made me fell in love. Also, would be nice meet Akihabara and to make me  a completly otaku haha.

I´d love to walking throug Harajuku, the famous place of street fashion and art of Shibuya.

Finally, it would be beatiful to travel in spring for the tradition of ¨hanami¨, when sakura trees blossom and the people contemplate it. I imagine me, puting a blanket on the grass and enjoying the day, while I watching how the whole place is coloring by pink tones flowers.

The biggest difficult to travel to both countries is the language. Would be very cool meet people from there so ... if I want to have a good experience, I need to learn well english or icelandic / japanes  to not stray me in the country and could socialize with others.
