Hello there,

I am Patricio, I was born in Valdivia. 

As a southern boy, I really enjoyed the rain and winter. I am a member of a family of 4. Sometimes, I tend to say we were 6 as I like to include my grandmother and my dog. My father was a math-teacher at a local school. He liked to play chess and dominoes on Sunday evenings with me. My sister and mother are both nurses at the local hospital. They work together since my sister graduated from university. Usually they prepared sopaipillas for us on weekends. Grandmother enjoyed doing word jumble games.

Our dog has a blackish tail and likes to bark at the shadows. He is very playful but extremely cautious with strangers. 

I studied at University of Valparaiso but finished here in Santiago. I also lived in England where I did a master. Teaching is what I like the most. I love languages and cultures in general.
