I would
like to go to China, because is a place with a completely different way to know
the world. I am not thinking in a big city; instead I want to visit a rural
town. I would like live simply, without the big technologies that I can get in
Chile, salving the proportion, obviously. The root of this could be in the old
movies that I watched when I was a child. This showed me things about the peace of the rural life, but
with a great sense of the self life. I
think that the rural China can offer me this.
But well,
actually I don’t know much of this. In fact, the not-knowing has something of
adventure and thrills me to go! I think that if you know all about the place
you are going to, you will be most interested just on a couple of things and you
could forgive live the moment with all your senses.
I just would
like to travel, but maybe work a little just to learn something more like the
language or the traditions. This is like try to live there as another person
and not as a tourist.
I remember a very sad documental that I saw in t.v a few years ago. It was about a disease (I think it´s HIV, but I´m not sure) and how it affected the lives of the families of rural town in China. It was very sad because a lot of people suffered and died because the goverment used in them some infected blood but they never got any help, not even in money (and they also were very poor)
