Talking about myself

My name is José Julián Martínez Taborda, i am single. I am from Medellín. I am 18 years old. I am a student. I am studying Psychology at UNAD. I live in Iquique and in my free time, i like to sing, play guitar and also writing poetry.

Talking about my city/town

The main touristic places in Iquique are Playa Cavancha, Museo Corveta Esmeralda, Playa Huaiquique, Chanavayita, and Humberstone town.

The typical food in my city is Albacora, Congrio, Cojinoba, those three foods are fishes, but there´s also proper dishes and stews like Calapurca and Picante de Conejo.

For example, Picante de Conejo is a stew prepared with rabbit meat, garlic, chicken broth, saffron, hard-boiled eggs, salt, pepper and other spices traditional to the region.

The main celebrations in Iquique are the fiesta de San Lorenzo and the fiesta de la Virgen del Carmen de La Tirana

People usually go to the parades that are made during both celebrations and they also decorate their houses with flags, statues and other objects related to the holidays.

In my city visitors can go to the beach, surf, go hiking in the desert, fly a paraglider from the hill, see the fascinating exhibitions about pre-hispanic cultures in the museums and many other things.

Estudié parcialmente los contenidos del e-book, puesto que me faltan varios ejercicios por realizar. No participé en el foro para esta entrega. Estudié propiamente los contenidos para la realización del video. Siento mucha seguridad al expresarme oralmente en inglés. Este aprendizaje me sirve como practica para mejorar mi inglés hablado teniendo en cuenta aspectos como dicción y entonación, los cuales son de gran importancia para darme a entender de forma clara, pudiendo hacer mejor uso del inglés en mi vida profesional.

My name is José Julián Martinez, i was born in Medellin, Colombia. I am a student, i am single and i don’t have any children. I am currently 17 years old, but i’ll be turning 18 very soon, currently i’m a psychology student. I have many pastimes, but i mostly enjoy everything related  to music like playing guitar, listening to albums by my favorite artists and singing at my city’s choir, my second biggest hobby ever since i was twelve years old has been learning about linguistics, history and geography.

My house in Medellín is located in a neighbourhood called San Joaquín, but i’m currently living in Iquique, Chile. I live with my mother, my sister and my nephew, my other sister still lives in Medellín. As of now, i live in a small apartment with two rooms and one bathroom, it’s pretty different to my house in Medellín, which was way bigger and also had a balcony and a patio on the back. I live in a big building of flats divided into blocks, my appartment is located in the second floor of the first block near the entrance of the building. I like it here because we have plenty of green areas and a park for children, there’s no noise from outside and the neighbours are very kind and friendly towards us, the city was built on a desert by the coast and it isn’t too hot where i live, so the weather is not a problem.

I usually start my day between 9 and 11 AM. Then, eat breakfast little after i get out of bed, not more than 30 minutes from that. Most days i’ll just eat a piece of bread with butter and i’ll drink some juice or coffee, but some times i just eat my own leftovers from last night depending on what the dinner was since i mostly dinner the same i have for breakfast. Also i don’t work at the moment, so i almost never leave the house. I have lunch between 1:30 and 2:30 PM and it varies depending on what my mom decided to cook that day, most frequently we have pasta, soup, or chicken. We have rice almost on a daily basis. When i go out to the choir or band rehearsal, i’m usually home before 11 pm. Those activities are usually conducted at afternoon, so the sun will already be down as i finish. After i finish studying i mainly pass the time on my phone, read, or play guitar. I don’t really like leaving my house so i try to keep relaxed and entertain myself indoors. Dinner is served between 8:30 and 9:00 PM, some days i come home late, so i eat past 10:00 or even 11:00 PM and as i said before, i usually eat the same at the morning and at night, so most dinners are bread with butter and coffee, juice or tea for drinking. Some times we have a sweet pastry such as a cake or a pie, olives, ham, or cheese. But this also happens at breakfast. I have the bad habit of going late to bed, i’m progressively getting better but most nights i could be still awake at 3 or even 4 AM. Since this is so dangerous for my health and causes so much stress, i decided to change my sleeping habits and start going progressively earlier to bed, so now i can start feeling sleepy between 11:00 PM and 12:00 AM. I have choir rehearsals on Saturdays at 7:30 PM. I have no friends to go out or any place i frequent besides the place the choir reunites, so weekends and weekdays are the same for me, i spend most of the time all by myself. Also, It’s not that i study, but i have the oportunity to practice English daily since most of all the content i consume comes from English speaker creators, also i have many long-distance friends from other countries, so we comunicate in English always.
