Concert ever

This time, I talk about the last concert that I attended. It was Kevin Johansen with Linniers and The Nada. It was august 13 a Wednesday. It was a very interesting and novel staging that I will explaing below.

In a trip in my holidays, someone recommended me Kevin as a nice music that I should listen during my travels the one place and another place. So, I listened to his disc called “Sur o no sur” and I loved it. Is the kind of music that makes me feel relaxed, entertained and listened to the lyrics because, it is very funny.
The style is a kind of fusion music with rhythms latin, since altiplanic, cumbia, blues, jazz, funk, tango, milonga rhythms, a fusion very contemporary in a perfect mixture.

Well, Kevin is argentin but he lived a lot of time in USA, “The Nada” is the name of his band and “Liniers” is an artist specialized in carttons. Liniers makes a cartoon for each song, according to lyric, and then he gives to public the cartton. They together offers a very nice show, with a style of coffee concert. Is realy nice I recommend.
The atmosphere of concert is very family, in some song the people can dance and take the stage with Kevin and dance with his.

I remember that the guy sitting next to me marriage requested to his girlfriend! And he up to the stage and sang “Anoche soñé contigo” with Kevin. Too romantic!

Food and Sustainability

In this post I want to comment about a video called "7 Food Forests in 7 minutes with Geoff Lawton", where he shows the connection between agriculture and food.
First, he talks about the importance of organic matter in soil on crops. He says that this soil condition is very important for fast growth and development of plants. Then he shows the different stages of the crop development, growing between native flora of the place. He makes emphasis in the good growth of annual plants in winter and the appropriate growth of roots and nodules in legumes in summer.
Then he shows how a woman carries out hand harvest and finally he shows how he incorporates stubble to return organic matter to the soil.
Well, the video is boring, it does not show new things.

On the order, about the possibility of implement this in Chile I think that every person could make permaculture in his/her own home by promoting self-cultivation, but in Chile there is no education about this.

I leave you this video, what do you think about that?

I would like to follow the route that was described in the  movie "eat, pray, love" where a woman searches herself on a trip across Italy, India and Indonesia. She was a very successful woman but she felt unmotivated and she left behind everything for recovering herself in a wonderful trip where she tried to learn to eat, to pray and then, to learn to love. Well, she learned to eat again in Italy, to pray in a monastery in India and to love in Bali, Indonesia.
I love travelling for holidays but I don't have the means for that. And now, I could not go away to live from my family and friends because I think that I would miss them so much. But who knows, maybe I am stronger than I think to go away and I would have funny and enriching experience.

In the future, when I work I would like to travel with my sun-eyed, my daughter, around the world.
