I’m in the middle of the travel from London to Toronto (where I’ll take the plane to Santiago) coming back from a amazing experience professional and personal. This week was very special.

En un bus por LondresTo end this days full of diferents situations, in the flight it was avaliable the film “Slumdog Millionaire”, that I hadn’t have the oportunity to watch and it really almost make me cry (“almost” because I have to control myself: a crazy woman in a plane it was too much hehe).

This last times was of intenses changes, where I left a job were I was almost 2 years and I took the way to come back to the media, a big challenge that I wanted to take but I never tought it would arrive so soon, literally without an advise and with a lot of sourprises.

The mix between the movie and my journey is very wired and making the real diferences between the two situations, we can realized the life is building itself and we almost didn’t realize, and when we look behind we ask about: was it written?

Visit London is indeed a great experiencie: a city full of history, with places for all people with diferents likes, hobbies, interests, etc.

Come from the end of the World to a place totally cosmopolitan is something that I can’t try to don’t pay attention: people of all the races, religions, who speak a lot of languages and they meet in this point on the planet it have a paticular mix of old and new times.

As some of you knew, my travel was because my new job in Publimetro, owned by Metro International and its headquarters are in London (but it is a sweedish company).

In the team of 7 people, only 2 where from GK and only one was from London. This is the trend in everywhere you go: I went to buy my lunch and the attendant was Cuban, and in other places was an Indian, an Italian, a Mexican, a Corean, etc.

Also you can discover every clothes you want: religion ones or tipical from a country. Nothing is strange in London, nobody is absolutely excentric or special.

Behind much of them there are stories like the film Slumdog Millionaire; a lot of things happened to reach the place they are noy, maybe the place they are today is not the last one, maybe it is, and that mix of a lot of stories is amazing.

Of course, the city and its structure express itself: it is impressive get off from the Charing Cross Station of the Underground and find there the Trafalgar Square, go to your office located in the Fleet Street, where the newspapers was born (and now there is only our newspaper there hehe), located strategically between the law and the economic centers. There still is “The Old Bell”, a pub were I was invited after telling me the newspaper zone story and where went my colleagues a lot of time ago, where so much breaking news were born.

A couple of squares from there is another pub but I weren’t there, but outside it is perfectly to film a movie of the 18th Century. My co-workers told me inside it is in the same look and it mantaines the style when, for example, ¡Charles Dickens went to drink there!

Something very beatiful was met my husband’s relatives, who pick me up to a sight seeing and they invite me to their home: aunt Gabriela, uncle Mario, cousins Gabriela (my tourism guide in London, thanks!) and Sebastián (and his wife Beatriz with their cute daugther Sofía). It is not an opportunity to everyone (to know somebody in a far away place) an I have to thank them a lot their hospitality. Also I knew a friend of my husband, Seneca, who is from USA and she had the great idea (with my “cousin” Gabriela) to go to eat fish (I ate cod), something tipical in London. Thank you for that beatiful moment!

I really thank this oportunity, It’s coming a very big challenge, but I’m waiting with enthusiasm. I thank a lot to the team who hosted me in London, another “slumdog millionaire”. My arriving, of course, has behind a lot of stories and if it was written or not, it just happens it it was wonderful.
