The reason I chose journalism

 

When I was a kid, my dad told me that my grandma was a cheff, so I decided that when I grew up, I would be a chef in her honor. Some time later, I realized I was very bad at cooking, so I switched to being a marine biologist, because I thought marine life was interesting. But one thing I've always loved, though, is reading and writing. So I started looking for a career related to this, and I found journalism. Some of my favorite writers studied journalism, like Gabriel García Márquez and Eduardo Galeano, so I thought that here I could do the two things I like the most.

My university experience has had good and bad things, I'm still getting used to it. I haven't yet decided what I would like to work on, I would like to try all areas of journalism before making a decision.

  1. You got inspired by really amazing writers/journalists. I love both of their books, my favorites are “Las venas abiertas de América Latina” y “El amor en tiempos de cólera.
    Gabriel García Márquez continues to give us magnificent lectures on how to do good journalism. I wish you can do it excellent searching for an area of specialization.

  3. I'm not good at cooking either jajaja. As for the classes I also had a hard time adapting to virtual education, I hope we can go to face-to-face classes soon. You mentioned that you like to read, what is your favorite book?
