  Recommendation for series: MAD MEN - I do not feel rooted in a certain genre when choosing which series to watch. I'm not a big TV consumer in general either. But when thinking about which is my favorite series, without a doubt that series is Mad Men. Mad Men is a drama series released in 2007 from United States. The series takes place during the 1960s (just after the confrontation between the United States and Korea), and has as its central axis Don Draper, publicist and creative director of a prestigious advertising firm called Sterling Cooper (the term mad men comes from the slang coined in the 1950s by the publicists who worked on Madison Avenue to refer to themselves, "mad" being short for Madison) and to the people who are part of their life, whether working at the firm as In his personal life. This drama is developed focusing on both the advertising agency's business and the characters' private lives, exposing serious problems in American society and

My favorite musical genre (sub-genre)

  My favorite musical genre (sub-genre). - Although I listen to all kinds of music during the day, by far the genre that I listen to the most is rock, more precisely indie rock. But what is indie rock? The term "indie" is a bit ambiguous, since at first it was used to refer to independent bands (those that did not necessarily have to be rock). These bands moved away from the mainstream of the genre, acquiring a more experimental tone. These days an indie rock band is generally defined by a lead guitar, energetic drums, and deep lyrics. Among the indie rock bands that I listen to are: Foals, Morrissey (solo and with the Smiths), Blur and Arctic Monckeys. On the other hand, I also listen to a lot of indie pop, which is a sub-genre of pop, but which, like indie rock, departs from the traditional parameters of its genre, using softer melodies and sometimes tending to a Lo-fi sound (low fidelity). Some indie pop artists I listen to are: The 1975, Tame Impala, Foster the Peop
THE NEXT COUNTRY (CITY) I’D LIKE TO VISIT (AGAIN) - I remember the last time I was in Buenos Aires, beautiful buildings, nice people, even nicer food… a really good place to be in general. The only “problem”, if you can call it a problem, is that the place is full of things that you can visit and do, so you must have a lot of time to truly experience the city. A main reason that makes Buenos Aires my next destination is the nearness of the city from Santiago (where I live), which makes the flight less than 2 hours and one of the cheapest mayor international destinations you can get. Letting aside the value of the US dollar in the black market in Argentina ( not that you should go ), that practically doubles the money that you bring there, going for a nice dinner or club doesn’t cost you a lot, and there are a LOT of nice places to go, getting around the city doesn't cost much either. Also, if somehow (probably not) you get bored from the city, you can take a boat to Montevi
