Why did I choose this career

When I was a child I wanted to study many things, among them astronomy, dentistry, and I had interests in environmental careers and also careers that had to do with animals, but not veterinary. Growing up, I really liked Ecotourism and until I left school I wanted to study that, mainly because of extreme sports and because it was related to nature.

At the time of postulation I realized that I had important things to be held responsible in the future and I thought that if I studied Ecotourism it was a bit more difficult to have a good economic situation for these purposes, so that we look for a career that has what to do with the environment and I found Forestry Engineering. And finally I applied to this career at the Universidad de Chile and the Universidad Católica.

My experience at the University has been complex, mainly because I found it difficult to adapt to living alone, and it was difficult for me to be satisfied with my choice, by the time I’m appreciating my career.

I would like to work in Conaf, but I still don’t know in what area. And I wish I could get closer to Ecotourism anyway.
