I love to know about diferents kind of aliments, their properties and benefits for  to apply them in daily life, but I have a lot hobbies too. I like go to the cinema with my boyfriend, dance and drink with my friends the weekend, go to hill to walk and take photos, swim in the lake, sing in the rain and see stars in the south of Chile.

I hope to work in the administration area, because i would like to be manager in the food industry.
