Hobby

One of my hobbies that I enjoy the most is cooking. I do it every time I feel like disconnecting from the world, when I find a new recipe, when I have free time or when I want to eat something special. I don't do it very often because I like to take the time needed for each recipe, so I don't cook as often as I'd like.

I enjoy preparing elaborate dishes with many steps, as that makes it fun for me. I usually prefer to cook alone, I turned this hobby into an experience of meditation and disconnection.

The most common equipment I use in the kitchen are: stoves, oven, microwave, deep fryer, pots, pans, mixer, blender, toaster, knives, cutting boards, spoons, cups, glasses, colander, grater, among others.

I learned to cook at the age of 10 by observing close family members. My grandmother was the first one who allowed me to take the first steps, always with her supervision. Since then, I've been cooking both for fun and out of necessity.

I really enjoy cooking because it's a time for myself and to relax.

What i like: 1. Variety: I enjoyed the diversity of topics offered on the wedsite for learning English. From grammar to specific and everyday vocabulary. The variety of sentences kept learning interesting and relavant.  2. Interactive quizzes: The quizzes after each lesson were helpful for practicing what I learned. I liked how the quizzees were designed to assess different skills, such as comprehension, reading and grammar. What i didn´t like: I think it has limited feedback. Although the website offers corrections after the quizzes, i sometimes found the feedback to be a bit scare. I would have liked to receive more detailed explanations about my mistake to better understand and correct them. Would you recommend this website to other English students? Yes, I would recommend it to other English students looking for a varied and practical platform to improve their skills. The diversity of content and interactive quizzes are strong points that can benefit learners. Do you think you ...

A good place to eat

Hello classmates and teacher, One of the places I like to go for food in Santiago is Wendy's. It's a fast food chain found in most malls around the city. I go approximately once a month, at most, and I usually go with my family, university classmates, or friends, depending on the occasion. What attracts me the most about Wendy's are their hamburgers. In particular, my favorite is the Bacon Cheddar. I always choose burgers with bacon and avoid vegetables because I don't like onions; although I could ask for it without this ingredient, I prefer not to risk it. I like Wendy's because it offers good quality fast food at an affordable price. It's perfect for those days when I want to eat something tasty without spending too much time or money. Additionally, the atmosphere in Wendy's locations or food courts in malls is perfect for gathering and chatting with friends and family or simply enjoying good fast food. A curious fact about Wendy's is that its iconic ...

Memory

 This photo reminds me of the summer camps our parents used to take us to every year for a week. The girl next to me is my sister, my partner, and my best friend. Without a doubt, it has been present in most of my happiest moments. During that week of vacation, our parents would drop us off at a meeting point where we would board the buses with the guides. It was the year 2015, the photo was taken by our mother. We were having breakfast in a dining room, waiting to board and meet our fellow travelers. We were wearing summer camp uniforms. And if I remember correctly, I was wearing a bathing suit, so we were probably going to a water park that day. The other photo shows the bus window. It was a time of year that we looked forward to with excitement and joy. We enjoyed a fun atmosphere, toured interesting places, played, sang, ate and met a lot of new people. That's why it's a photo with a nice memory for me!
