Opportunity

 Perdida de la esencia

Mi familia y yo nos mudamos a una nueva casa la semana pasada, yo estaba triste porque había cosas que extrañaría de donde vivíamos antes, pero mi madre me dijo que tratara de adaptarme a la situación y que no fuera negativa, y eso es lo que hago. Salí por la mañana a dar una vuelta por el barrio, todas las personas que veo son totales desconocidos para mi, intentaré esta vez hacer amigos para alegrar a mi madre, ella se preocupa por mi porque cree que estoy muy sola y soy infeliz, pero yo me siento de lo mejor así, no necesito a nadie más, solo me necesito a mi.

My family and I moved to a new house last week, I was sad because there were things that I would miss about where we lived before, but my mother told me to try to adapt to the situation and I not be negative, and that is what I make. I went out in the morning to take a walk around the neighborhood, all the people I see are total strangers to me, and I will try this time to make friends to glad my mother, she worries about me because she thinks I'm very lonely and unhappy, but I feel the best like this, I don't need anyone else, I only need myself.

Empieza a anochecer, pero no quiero llegar pronto a casa, asi que tomo un camino distinto, voy escuchando música y mirando el cielo, el ambiente se siente fresco es algo que me gusta de este lugar, por un momento siento que estoy en mi antiguo hogar, ahí me sentía feliz, no tenia amigos pero al menos tenia un sitio que era mi refugio, donde crecí y aprendí muchas cosas, pero ahora ya no tengo nada de eso.

It's starting to get dark but I don't want to get home soon, so I take a different path, I'm listening to music and looking at the sky, the atmosphere feels fresh, it's something I like about this place, for a moment I feel like I'm in my old home. I felt happy there, I had no friends but at least I had a place that was my refuge, where I grew up and learned many things, but now I no longer have any of that.

Continuo llendo por el sendero del bosque y me encuentro en la parte más alta del este lugar, desde aquí se puede ver todas las otras casas, el viento sopla fuerte pero se siente libre, mirando el horizonte me pongo a pensar en todas las veces en que mi mamá me ha dicho que sea más social, pero si fuera más social me perdería a mi misma, siento que cuando alguien interactúa con otras personas se roba un gesto o un pensamiento del otro, se deja influenciar por los demás y pierde cada vez lo que era, su esencia.

I continue going along the forest path and I find myself in the highest part of this place, from here you can see all the other houses, the wind blows strong but it feels free, looking at the horizon I start to think about all the times in that my mother has told me to be more social, but if I were more social I would lose myself, I feel that when someone interacts with other people he steal a gesture or a thought from the other, he allow himself to be influenced by others and he lose each time what he was, his essence.

 

El cielo se a oscurecido completamente, asi que creo que es mejor volver a casa, me levanto de donde estaba sentada, pero de pronto me resbalo y caigo encima de algo duro pero a la vez suave, me da un poco de miedo porque no puedo ver que es, me paró y escucho una voz, miro hacia atrás y veo que es alguien, me observa y luego procede a decir:

 

The sky has completely darkened, so I think it is better to go home, I get up from where I was sitting but suddenly, I slip and fall on something hard but at the same time soft, it scares me because I can't see what is it, I stand and hear a voice, I look back and see that it is someone, he looks at me and then proceeds to say:

-Hola, disculpa no te ví y por eso me choque contigo.

- Hello, sorry I did not see you and that is why I collided with you.

Alumbro con mi teléfono y veo que es una chica, se ve como de mi edad, le respondo:

I light up with my phone and see it's a girl, she looks about my age, I answer her:

 - Esta bien, no paso nada.

-It's okay, nothing happened.

- Que bueno, eres una cara nueva, no te había visto antes en el barrio.

- That good, you are a new face, I haven't seen you in the neighborhood before.

- Si, recién me mudé a aquí, salí a dar una vuelta para conocer mejor el lugar, me imagino que tu vives aquí ¿verdad?

- Yes, I just moved here, I went for a walk to get to know the place better, I guess you live here, don't you?

- Acertaste, yo vivo aquí, que forma extraña de conocernos jaja

- You got it right, I live here, what a strange way to meet us haha

- Si, bueno yo ya me tengo que ir, ya es de noche, fue un gusto conocerte.

- Yes, well, I have to go, it's already night, it was nice meeting you.

- Es verdad yo también ya me voy, pero como eres nueva ¿podría darte un recorrido por el barrio mañana, te parece?

-It's true, I'm leaving too, but since you're new, could I give you a tour of the neighborhood tomorrow, do you think?

Pensaba decirle que no gracias, pero después recordé lo que dije sobre intentar hacer nuevos amigos y empezar de nuevo, asi que le dije que sí me gustaría.

I thought about saying no thanks but then I remembered what I said about trying to make new friends and starting over, so I said yes, I would like.

Mientras regresaba a casa, veía a un grupo de chicos y chicas caminar al otro lado de la calle, parecían que estaban alegres, se escuchaba sus risas como si que lo que estuvieran hablando fuera lo más gracioso del mundo, probablemente la chica que conocí hoy los conoce o sea su amiga. La verdad creo que lo que sucedió podría ser una oportunidad para conocer nuevas personas, lo que temo es que me conozcan a mi. Yo sé que si no tengo a nadie al menos me tengo a mi misma, pero al conocer a otros, hará que me olvidé de mi, pero me arriesgaré y haré que el daño sea lo más mínimo posible.

As I was walking home, I saw a group of boys and girls walking across the street, they seemed to be happy, you could hear their laughter as if what they were talking about was the funniest thing in the world, probably the girl I met today knows them or is their friend. The truth is I think that what happened could be an opportunity to meet new people, what I fear is that they know me. I know that if I don't have anyone at least I have myself, but when I meet others, it will make me forget about myself, but I will take the risk and i will make that the damage as little as possible.

Haré de este lugar mi nuevo hogar.

I will make this place my new home.

Types of traditional houses in the different regions of Ecuador

Hi!✋ This time I am gonna talk to you about the traditional Ecuadorian houses, some of which have become traditional, it is important to bring up this topic, to learn more about our culture.

Let's go!!!

       

Coast región

In this region, the climate is warm and because of that the houses are built with wood and guadúa cane, the walls and structure so that there is a natural cross ventilation and the material for the roof is the cadi or cade that comes from a palm, also the construction of the houses depends on the family's economy. The houses are built at a certain height to avoid crawling animals and floods in the rainy season.



Sierra Region

This region lies between the Coast region and the Amazon region, the climate of the mountains is very varied due to the Andes mountain range, however most of the time it could be said that it is temperate, humid, cold. Some of the traditional houses there are built of clay blocks, adobe walls, stones, mixed, etc., the roof is made of rustic tile and the two sides are usually inclined so that the rain falls, the shapes of the houses may vary, owners make the house cozy due to the cold.

*I look forward to visit some provinces of the Sierra region in a future.              

Amazon Region 

This region is green, humid, tropical, rainy, it only rains most of the time, although there are also days that are sunny. The traditional houses are of different shapes, and have a variety of materials for their construction, such as chonta, guadúa, huangana wood for the walls, structures, these materials are resistant to the rainy climate of the region. For the roof there are the sheets of toquilla that is also resistant to the environment.


It is good to see that today we have learned a little more about our traditional houses in each region. I hope you liked the topic and the content, thank you so much for reading.👍👋

TRY

 

 TRY👊

-The first time I slid down a straight slide, it was in the water park of the city, I always threw myself from the smallest because the slide was curved and it did not go so fast, I felt safer when I launched myself in that one, most of the time. People lined up to go there, I was part of that line up, until one day I dared to on the other side, where the straight slide is located, well I didn't have to wait that long, the line was only 3 people 😑, that is little compared to the amount of people who were in the place...

Although I don't remember my experience very well, I do remember the adrenaline I felt at the time.

...It all started, when I wanted to try going down the slide that I felt was more dangerous, I just wanted to know what it would be like to go there. It is very scary at the beginning but then you forget everything and only think that you are slipping at full velocity. 😊😁

The truth is, it is very relaxing after you jump, you feel excitement and energy, when you jump for the first time, after you want to do it again and again and you don't get tired.😁😅

I advise you to try doing something new maybe and you like it. Give a try to new things that are good.👍✌
