Post 5. Who is a person/expert on your field that I admire?

Hello everybody! I want to tell you about this person that I consider is important in the biology field. His name is Charles Darwin, he born in England on February 12 in 1809. When he was 16, he studied at the University of Edinburgh because Darwin's father wanted to carry on the family legacy being a medic. But Darwin didn't want that, so he moved to University of Cambridge, where he prepared to become a priest. Even so, he showed a fondness for nature, and it was there that John Henslow would see him and invite him to join a voyage as a replacement naturist on the HMS Beagle in 1831. The voyage lasted until 1836, when back in England, he began a period of reflection that would lead him, after several years, to formulate his famous theory of evolution by natural selection in his publication "the origin of species", a discovery that would bring him to fame.  I like his work because he change the paradigm of biology in a way that caused this science to be taken serious...

Post 4. My favourite food

 Hi everybody! In this case, I will tell you about my favorite food, which makes my days happy. I'm talking about lasagne, a type of pasta from Italy. This food consists of sheets or wide strips that are layered one on top of the other, building a kind of tower of sheets.  In between the slices, several ingredents, such as bolognese sauce or béchamel sauce, cheese, mincemeat, and sometimes basil leaves, are added. To prepare sheets, we must use the same ingredients to make pasta, which consists of fluor, eggs, oil and a pinch of salt.  I naturally like pasta as it's, but I really like this layering of sheets one on top of the other; however, lasagne is special for me because it reminds me of family lunches and outings.  I know that lasagne is not very healthy because of the pasta dough, but it's a good idea to eat it once in a while and not in excess. Besides, if you use ingredients such as olive oil or avoid adding too much cheese, it could make it healthier to eat....

Post 3. My favourite piece of technology

 This piece of technology is basically my partner in this sense, because I always use them, mostly on public transport.  I'm talking about my headphones, this piece of technology is a device for listening music, this are quite large, so they usually muffle outside noise. I got my headphones one day when I walked to my home and I passed by a shop that was near my street. I remember that I bought this device in May; on that day, specifically, they were on sale, so it was very easy for me to buy them, at that moment a "strong partnership" was born between us.  I just put my headphones on my ears, and the magic begins. I usually use them all the time when I travel by metro, as well as when I do my homework or any personal project.  I love this piece of technology because I can listen to my favorite music and disconnect a bit from the outside. if I don't have this anymore, I think that I will buy other headphones desperately, but only because they are cheap, I doubt I wou...
