Hi everyone! I'm Camilo Castro, i was born in Venezuela. My father's family is from Venezuela and my mom's family is from Chile. I live with my sister, my parents and my dog in Machalí. and i have a brother, but he lives in united states. I study musical composition at the university and my career is at the same time my best hobby. I started to play the guitar when i was 11 years old and I really love to play Blues and Jazz music. But curiously, at the moment that i have to compose, most of time i compose classical music for orchestra and others ensembles.

    Hello Camilo! Your picture looks so cool, is awesome that you started play the guitar at your 11 years. Your career sounds so funny and a little bit difficult because i dont know nothing of compose music but i like so much to listening music especially while im doing art works.
    Have a nice day!!

Post 2: Best holiday/concert ever

Imagen
  My best holiday was in december 2017 when i traveled to San Francisco, California. I stayed at my cousins' house, maybe that was the best part because i did not have to pay any hotel or something like that hahaha. The first day i went to an american football game at the Levi's stadium, i could not understand the game but at the same time i really enjoyed the atmosphere, there were orchestras representing each team, good food, people screaming... The following days i just ate very nice hamburgers at In And Out, Five Guys, Carls jr. and others... Obviously i practiced my english with native and non native speakers, my best conversation was with an indian guy. At that time my English was worse than it is today, but i could learn a little bit and it was a good experience. I casually went to some concerts, i saw some jazz musicians in bars and many street musicians. My brother currently is living in San Francisco right now so i really hope to return soon if i can.

Post 7: Changes to my study programme

Imagen
Well... I mentioned in my last comment that many careers need a programme change... Why do i think that? because there are many careers a little bit outdated because the most of teacher don't have a very good connection with the new technologies and new trends. For example, in my faculty the most of teachers just study a very specific kind of music (contemporary - classical music), that is really good, but at the same time is necessary to have others perspectives to study. It is common that teachers think that popular music (rock, blues, jazz and others) is easier than contemporary music and they think that just because they don't know the popular music. Ok, this post is making me a hater, hahahaha... Another important problem is that usually the music faculties and conservatories don't have a good economic situation. Today is very difficult to survive as a musician and as a music faculty. The art needs a special financing, it is necessary that the state support that kind o...

Post 6: Food

Imagen
Okay this time I think that I am going to choose once of the most uncommon favorite dishes... I am talking about the curanto! I still remember the first time that I saw "her", it was love at first sight♥️ Okay, I am always trying to be funny in this blog and I'm not sure if I'm getting it. I tried the curanto ten years ago approximately and it was a super nice experience. In those years I lived in Venezuela and I was enjoying my holidays in Chile with my parents and sister. At the beginning I thought "what a strange dish!" in good way, of course, and 30 minutes later I was very close to exploit because I really ate a lot. Right now I am living in Machalí, VI region, so I ate curanto once a year as maximum. I really like the mix between the ingredients, the smell and why not? I love the portions hahaha. I hope to go to Chiloé very soon (maybe in February) and eat all the kilograms of curanto that I can hahaha.
