► FOCUS on the PROCESS not ONLY in the GOAL

This video starts with a personal story, almost a love story since the main character was a girl I dated in the past, and is someone I talked to these days. 

The thing is that I notice she is at the beggining of a new entrepreneurship related to painting, ut she was afraid about the fact that maybe she is not good enough to sell their paints. 

► My FIRST vlog in ENGLISH is FINALLY here

 

Here we go! This is my REALLY first video in ENGLISH in an attempt to improve my English language skills. The big challenge is to vlog in a daily basis and the topics and contents are really open, I mean there is no just one subject. 

Nevertheless, the topics will depend on my mood and the things I will read or watcht on TV or Internet I want to give it a very personal . For instance, someday I could talk about music, movies, politics or travels, everything is possible. So this video works as a sort of a baseline. 

► “Take away the supernatural, and what remains is the unnatural.”

 

During the pandemic lockdown all the streets, businesses, and social life was totally closed and people were afraid to go outside and simply enjoy of the pure air, the nature and the beautiful landscapes that our city can still offer. 

I am pretty sure that most of the people around the world felt the same, I mean, that feeling of impotence regarding to something totally new that we can´t deal with, just because it was absolutely unpredictable and, on the other hand we live in a society that make us believe that we can controll every aspect of our life. 

►Government to SUSPEND QUARANTINE for tourists entering PERU

The Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (Mincetur) on Thursday announced that the mandatory quarantine for travelers entering Peruvian territory will be suspended.

Minister Claudia Cornejo reported that said decision was made during the latest session of the Council of Ministers.

It comes in response to the slight decrease in the numbers of COVID-19 cases registered in the country.

Therefore, the Executive Branch also decided to suspend the PCR test requirement for travelling to national destinations.

However, the PCR test requirement will remain in force for those travelers and tourists who come to Peru from abroad.

Updated January 20th 2021-Clarification of New Security Protocols for International Travel to Peru & Machu Picchu

From December 22nd to January 15th, the Peruvian government passed a series of security protocols to help stop the spread of the new variant of Covid-19 from the UK, and help mitigate the anticipated post-holiday 2nd wave. The initial set of security measures released by the current government were obscure and left many questions unanswered. In the last week many of the ambiguities have been cleared up.

Below I’ve detailed out what we know regarding the new legislation for travel to and from Peru & Machu Picchu during the pandemic.
All flights originating from Europe and longer than 8 hours have been suspended until January 31st.

All foreigners from Europe or South Africa, or anyone that has had a layover in Europe or South Africa in the last 14-days, that are non-residents of Peru, will be denied entry into Peru to help keep out the new variant of Coronavirus.

► LA HERRADURA beach in LIMA - PERU (ABANDONED DISCO INCLUDED)

 

Long time ago I was trying to vlog in English language. I think it is the best way to practice and improving my english language skills by sharing my thoughts about different topics that are not necessary part of my professional background. Back the topic, the idea would be to publish some movies as much as possible in order to have visual material to share. 

TRAVEL TO PERU: THE BEST TRAVEL TIME, DURATION AND ROUTE CHOICE

Travel Time
There is no equally favorable travel time for Peru. When we are having a beautiful time in the Andes, Lima lies under a blanket of fog, and when it is beautiful on the coast, it rains in the Andes and in the jungle. For the Andes, which most tourists prefer to visit, the ideal time is April / May to September / October. 

✈️ HOW TO TRAVEL TO PERÚ: INDIVIDUAL OR PACKAGE TOURS? SOLO OR WITH FRIENDS? 💥💥

Peru: individually or all-inclusive
The idea of ​​traveling to Perú, organized by yourself or with a group, is primarily based on personal interests and ideas, but also on the finances and travel destinations availability as well as your personal travel experience.

In an organized group tour, the most important sights are usually visited on a two to three week round trip.The accommodations are reserved, the tour guide is almost always English-speakers and the people don´t need to worry about anything.

THE POST COVID-19 ERA: A NEW OPORTUNITY FOR TOURISM IN PERÚ

Tourism in our country has to reinvent itself. Traveling is already inherent to everyone, it has ceased to be a luxury, and in our opinion, as this challenge presents itself, recovering the industry will necessarily have to go through no longer being so and open its doors to the local traveler - with many fewer resources than the traveler from abroad -and with other desires.

But, are we going to encourage the usual internal tourism, that consumerist, devastating, disorderly, overwhelming tourism and forget about the lessons learned that Covid-19 is leaving us? It is certainly the opportunity to change and in that there is a great responsibility in the sector.

► What did J.R.R. TOLKIEN think of G.K CHESTERTON? ✝️

G. K. Chesterton

Desplaza hacia abajo para la versión en español

⭐️⭐️ G.K. Chesterton is perhaps one of the best catholic thinkers of our time. His books, writings and essays have influenced widely over millions of catholic (and non Catholic) people around the world.

Personally, I came across Chesterton and his valuable thinkings thanks to Juan Manuel de Prada, one of the best writers and thinkers of Spain and all the hispanic world.

De Prada conducted an important TV Show called Lagrimas en la Lluvia, where he used to discuss different sort of topics, from love to Science; from the Second Vatican Council to contemporary art. 

J.R.R. Tolkien

Always along with scientifics, experts and distinguished specialists in different fields of knowledge. 

So, Chesterton was always present in the De Prada dissertations and analysis; giving to his ideas a colourful freshness of common sense and good and smart sense of humour.

On the other hand, an ex girlfriend  had given me away a book from Chesterton, that I never read in the past; but I rediscovered very recently: The Man Who Was Thursday.

So, in many ways Chesterton and his thinking is always present, more over in these gritty and dark times of our history. 

But what about of the another important and transcendent giant of the catholic literature? 

J.R.R. Tolkien never proclaim himself as a catholic apologist in terms of his own literature; but he admitted that, in a non conscious way, he could have impregnated part of his religious thinking in his books and characters such as The Lord of The Rings.

Did they meet each other? We really do not know if they meet each other, since Tolkien really didn't speak about Chesterton at all.

But, we already know that Chesterton Everlasting Man influenced the conversion of C.S Lewis to Christianity; so Chesterton was widely present in his convertion and his way to see and understand the world.

C.S. Lewis

It is said that Tolkien also helped Lewis in believing in Jesus. So we exactly don't know who introduced the book to who. Tolkien could have introduced the book to Lewis or vice versa.

We also know that Lewis and Tolkien shared a group in which they usually discussed about theology, sharing ideas and points of view about different issues.

Tolkien would definitely know about the literature and thinking of Chesterton, and there are high possibilities that his literature could have influenced Tolkien plots and or / characters.

--------------------------------

G K. Chesterton es quizás uno de los mejores pensadores católicos de nuestro tiempo. Sus libros, escritos y ensayos han influido ampliamente en millones de personas católicas (y no católicas) en todo el mundo.

Personalmente, me encontré con Chesterton y sus valiosos pensamientos gracias a Juan Manuel de Prada, uno de los mejores escritores y pensadores de España y de todo el mundo hispano.

De Prada dirigió un importante programa de televisión llamado Lagrimas en la Lluvia, donde solía discutir diferentes tipos de temas, desde el amor hasta la ciencia; del Concilio Vaticano II al arte contemporáneo.

Siempre junto con científicos, expertos y distinguidos especialistas en diferentes campos del conocimiento.

Entonces, Chesterton siempre estuvo presente en las disertaciones y análisis de De Prada; dando a sus ideas una colorida frescura de sentido común y un sentido del humor bueno e inteligente.

Por otro lado, una ex novia me había regalado un libro de Chesterton, que nunca leí en el pasado; pero redescubrí muy recientemente: El hombre que era jueves.

Entonces, en muchos sentidos, Chesterton y su pensamiento siempre están presentes, más en estos tiempos sombríos y sombríos de nuestra historia.

Pero ¿qué pasa con el otro gigante importante y trascendente de la literatura católica?

J.R.R. Tolkien nunca se proclamó apologista católico en términos de su propia literatura; pero admitió que, de manera no consciente, podría haber impregnado parte de su pensamiento religioso en sus libros y personajes como El Señor de los Anillos.

¿Se conocieron? Realmente no sabemos si se encuentran, ya que Tolkien realmente no habló sobre Chesterton en absoluto.

Pero, ya sabemos que el Hombre Eterno de Chesterton influyó en la conversión de C.S Lewis al cristianismo; entonces Chesterton estuvo ampliamente presente en su conversión y en su manera de ver y comprender el mundo.

Se dice que Tolkien también ayudó a Lewis a creer en Jesús. Así que no sabemos exactamente quién presentó el libro a quién. Tolkien podría haberle presentado el libro a Lewis o viceversa.

También sabemos que Lewis y Tolkien compartieron un grupo en el que generalmente discutían sobre teología, compartiendo ideas y puntos de vista sobre diferentes temas.

Tolkien definitivamente sabría acerca de la literatura y el pensamiento de Chesterton, y hay muchas posibilidades de que su literatura pueda haber influido en las tramas y / o personajes de Tolkien.
