Personal information

My name is Antonio Chihuaicura, I am from the south of Chile, 9th region, in the countryside.

I came to Santiago when I was seven years old but I got home on holidays. In santiago I live with my mother, I don´t have brothers and sisters. I have two uncles and one aunt. I like to practice ejercices but not Football or Basketball. I like practicing ejercices like Aikido, taewondo, oriental arts marcials, but like a style of life, not to fight. I speak Mapudungun language, so I try to improve it everyday and not to forget it, so I have a teacher who makes me work hard. In Santiago it is not easy to find somebody who speaks mapudungun. I don´t  like to go to parties very much, I think that´s boring, especially because I enjoy to sleep very much.

I know that English is very important for the world, it is important to read important papers from different universities, to communicate with people from different nacionalities. 

At weekend I work in a shop selling handcrafs at the top of the San Cristobal´s hill, so I have to understand something to make a good job. The foreigners used to ask me: do you speak English?, only a little bit, I used to answer. I used to speak with peolpe from different nationalities; From Japan, Greece, China, India, England, Soth Africa; and their English is diverse like their own countries. French don´t used to speak English; I think that they don´t like it.

I expect to improve my skills in oral and written English but I know that I have to study hardly.
