My ideal job

 Everytime I think about what I want to do for a living I think in photography, that's something that I'm really passionate for. Luckly I'm actually working in photography right now, for de pandemic me and one of my best friends create an studio where we are making some product photography, we are working with a bar in Republica, and I enjoy it, but I see this like a step to reach the kind of photos that I want to do, more artistic and creative images. 

So, I want this studio to grow up enough to allow me work less, and dedicate more time to travel and create some photographic projects that I could publish or sell. That's probably my ideal job, where I could have the time to create and also live. I worked in a mall once and it's incredible the normalization of exploitation that happen there, so when I think about the job I want, having time for me and for do unproductive things it's a bassic thing.

I can't see me in the future working in an office, in front of a screen from 9 to 6, I like to create things, think in how to comunicate an idea and make it real in an image, or the adventure of finding that crucial moment and take the photo, thats are the things that moves me. 

My bucket list

 I've never thought in making a bucket list, but I have in mind some things that I want to do in my life. In terms of places to go, I want to visit a lot of countries: Japan, Mexico, China, Vietnam, also go to the middle east, and Africa. I'd love to make a lot of photos of those places, maybe make some kind of photographic journal and publish it. I think that's another thong to put on my list, publish a book of my photos and travels, where I can talk about the places I visited by showing the photos that I made in the process.

In terms of activities or other things to do, I'd like to dive in the ocean at least once, I don't know why, but I always have thought that it's really intresting like swim into the water and see all of the creatures that live there. 

Another thing that I could add to my list is having a nice house in the country side, in the south of chile, nothing fancy, just a place with a nice view, where I can have a big library and where I can recive my friends and family.     

An animated master piece

I think it's really hard to say which is my favorite movie, there's a lot of films that I think are amazing and everyone should watch. But if I have to choose one it should be Mononoke hime the master piece of the japanese director Hayao Miyasaki. 

Miyasaki is well known for Spirited Away (2001), probably because it won the Oscar for best animated film that year, and here in latin america was the first anime movie to be screened in theaters. Spirited Away it's an amazing movie but Mononoke hime  it's (in my opinion) the magnum opus of Miyazaki, it was released in 1997 and tells a story about the relation between progress and the destruction of the nature. The title Mononoke hime translates from the japanese as the princess of the avengers spirits, and it refers to the spirits of the creatures of the forest that in the movie tries to take revenge of humans who has destroyed the forest. Miyasaki in a lot of his movies has an ecological message, about the importance of take care of the nature and the enviroment, but it's in this film where he has the most radical and violent version of the relation between humans and nature. 

I love animated movies, specially japanese ones, but this one it's my favorite by far, it's visually and narratively beautyful and I think it's a must for everyone who enjoys anime and good movies in general. I liked that much that I get a Mononoke tattoo a few years ago so I literally have this film engraved in my skin.
