This is me; I introduce myself in a photo for you so you know who I am and I assure you that all the information you will see here is completely true and made by me, I am passionate about tourism and I have had the opportunity to work as an editor in TripAdvisor and I have known so many opinions that have inspired me to make my own Travel Blog and what better way to start than in this community. I don't know if it's important here, but I also work as a creative writer. I don't know if it matters much, but I think you should know and I'm telling you so you know that my articles are written by me and only by me
This photo you see is Puerto Ayacucho, it is located to the south in the Amazonas state in southern Venezuela, in this city, I was born and raised for 17 years, I learned many things and I always remember it with great affection. It is located a little away from the center of the country and has a direct border with the department of Vichada of the Republic of Colombia. Due to that distance so far from the center of the country, the opportunities to emerge as a professional are low, if possible, but it is a bit difficult. For this reason, I decide to move at the age of 17 to the center of the country to be able to study at the university and look for work.
After leaving Puerto Ayacucho I moved to Caracas, the great city of Venezuela, one of the largest metropolises in Latin America with a little more than 5 million inhabitants, it is a great city which for anyone from the interior of the country is the typical dream of progressing in the big city as in the United States is to move to New York. I arrived in Caracas mainly to do my studies at the Central University of Venezuela, one of the best universities in Venezuela and Latin America, it is true that the situation in Venezuela is not the best, but I never let that affect my to be able to do my studies in my country.
My first months in Caracas were wonderful and I even fell in love with this city, which to this day I consider my favorite city for many reasons. I spent a lot of time here, like half a year, at that time I was doing the paperwork to enter the university and already working as a travel writer. As soon as I found out that I was in college and that my work could be done from home, I returned to Puerto Ayacucho to spend the time while I waited for classes to start. A little sad that I was leaving Caracas, but at the same time excited to go to Puerto Ayacucho to visit my family and see how everything was there.
On my return to Puerto Ayacucho not much time passed, a month or maybe two I don't remember very well, but I do remember that I was excited to spend time there again. I had to wait for the next semester of university to be able to go to Caracas to start my studies, and at that moment I got an opportunity to go to another city and spend some time there to work extra to the job I already had and wait to go to Caracas.
At this moment I was on my way to a city that I had been to many times since this was the meeting place for my family for a long time, I spent time here while I was waiting to return to Caracas to start university, as I left here alone and before traveling with my mom and my brother I saw everything from a different perspective, since I made my own decisions about what I wanted to visit and what not and believe me, although this city is far from the center too, San Fernando de Apure is a city growing very fast. But it's time to go.
I took that photo on a perfect afternoon days before I arrived in Caracas again and I felt full of joy knowing that I was already in my favorite city. At this time, I was already starting university and I was doing very well at my job, but because of things that get out of hand, sometimes not everything goes the way we think. At this moment something is being curtailed in the country and it is the protests in which the majority of the protesters were students that led to the constant stoppage of classes so much so that I had to decide to look for another university to be able to continue my training as a professional and with great sadness, but an emotion of knowing a completely new city for my start my way.
And so, I arrived in San Diego, an industrial city in the state of Carabobo in the center-west of the country, about 2 hours from Caracas. I moved here because here I found the university where I currently study, and although I arrived a little disoriented, it was very fast how I got used to it and how I connected with the people here. I consider San Diego to be a very large city that is concentrated in a very large industrial center and is right in the middle of one of the busiest highways in the country. It feels very peaceful and a little more secure compared to other areas of the country.
And with that photo of that sunset taken in San Diego, which are always majestic, I say goodbye to all of you until a new blog, I will be uploading content for you about the trips I have made in my country and waiting for the moment to be able to travel outside the country. and to be able to show them everything that this planet gives us. I will always speak with sincerity and with my own opinion and I say this because, although I know that Venezuela is not going through the best moment, it will never stop being a place where you can go sightseeing and take very good photos and have many great experiences trying to forget a little the problems in which we live today.
