L3-FACSO-2021

When I was a child, I wanted to be a history teacher. I always liked to read books about the Egyptian pyramids, about native cultures of America or just about historical events across the world. And I wanted to share that knowledge to other people as a teacher when I grew up. So, when I was on 11th grade, I decided to study something related to and I thought in Anthropology… When I was applying to University, I thought in Sociology and even History again. However, once the classes started, there was no doubt. I really love my career and how it links with people and their cultures. That's why I would like to live and work in the South, in mapuche lands, where my family originally comes from. Learning more about the culture, the language and trying to do my best for the community. Purrum (traditional mapuche dance) in Lautaro, Araucanía Region 

Hello there, I'm Vicente Ulloa Colipué. I'm 19 years  old. I was born and raised here in San Bernardo, where I live now. I'm a member of a family of five: my mom, a teacher; my dad, a former chef; two siblings and myself. We also had a dog called Coco. Even though I was born in Santiago, my family came from a mapuche williche area located in the countryside of La Unión. My grandfather was from there, but moved to Valdivia when he was a teenager, and then to Santiago when he met my grandma.  I studied at Colegio Agustiniano (Elementary and High School). But currently, I'm on my second year of Anthropology at the University of Chile. About myself, I enjoy talking to people, getting to know their culture and traditions. I get very interested in learning mapuzugun, the mapuche l anguage. Also collecting coins and vintage stuff. However, one of my favourite things to do is taking pictures of landscapes, nature and people.  Here's a picture from this summer: Local fisherm
