2. THE BEST HOLIDAYS EVER

My first vacation since the start of the pandemic

The first time I went to Coquimbo was when I was a child. This year, specifically in September, I went to Coquimbo again. My vacation lasted 4 days and we were me, my mother and father. On this vacation we visit La Herradura beach, the Central Market of Coquimbo, its waterfront and we to sail a boat. In Central Market we bought "locos", we cooked and ate them with mayonnaise, it was delicious. I didn't eat "locos" for many years, so it was quite an anecdote.


La Herradura beach


This was my best vacation because since the pandemic began I had not traveled that far and for so many days. This trip was a respite after so much stress suffered over a long period. I really enjoyed this trip!

Finally, a relevant information of Coquimbo is the origin of its name, which comes from the Quechua Coquimpu ("place of calm waters"). However, when I sailed to boat through the bay, this name did not seem very pertinent to me, because the boat moved so much that I threw up to sea XD

Tip: Never eat before sailing.

    Coquimbo is very nice, it was my favorite beach when I was a child, I hope you can come back and enjoy it as much as you did on that trip.

    Hello Valentina! Coquimbo reminds me of my childhood. My father is from the fourth region and since I was a child I 've visited this place. When I visit it, I love to walk through the English quarter and visit the market to eat seafood. For me it's the best port in Chile to eat fresh seafood. I hope your next boat experience can be better. Cheers!

1. A COUNTRY I'D LIKE TO VISIT

The largest country in South America Brazil is the larg est country in South America. I would like to go to this place to know its culture, architecture, landscapes and Amazon rainforest.   Rio de Janeiro The Amazon rainforest is the biggest jungle in the world, so it makes sense that a large part of it lies in the largest country in South America. Around 60% of the jungle’s surface area belongs to Brazil, a far greater percentage than the next greatest, Peru (13%) and Colombia (10%). The Brazilian part of the Amazon is estimated to contain between 96,660 and 128,843 individual species of invertebrates. Amazon rainforest If I go there someday, the first thing I’ll do is to explore Amazon rainforest, because this wonderful habitat is home to so many species of fauna and flora as no other ecosystem in the world, and because it is a surprising place for the cultural diversity of its indigenous peoples and for the life that originates and feeds on the multiple banks of t...

6. TIME TRAVEL TO THE FUTURE

Do you enjoy traveling? Of course! Traveling allows us to learn a lot, meet people, different customs and different types of places. When I was a child,  I grew up in a family that watched a lot of Brazilian soap operas and one of my first visual memories are the landscapes and cities of Brazil. I was too young to be interested in look these places at that time, so I did not pay enough attention to them when they were shown on television, but now that I am an adult I realize how beautiful it is Brazil. Copacabana, the most famous beach in Brazil I also remember that one of my favourite hobbies at that time was look at old photo albums. We have many photo albums, hence I got to know many places where my parents traveled when they were younger. One of the places that I liked the most was the San Rafael Lagoon , I found this place incredible! San Rafael Lagoon In the future, I wish I could travel all over the world because there is just so much to see and enjoy. However, some spe...
