 My favorite sport

I want to tell you that since I was very young I have been very passionate about sports, I have always liked to be in constant physical activity and I find it very entertaining.

When I was little I used to practice competitive skating but I got bored, it just wasn't my thing, I kept trying other sports until I met handball, about 8 years ago and I fell in love with it.

Handball is a ball sport in which two teams play against each other, characterized by carrying the ball with the hands. Each team is made up of 7 players and is played on a rectangular field, with a goal on each side of the field. The objective of the game is to move a ball across the field in an attempt to put it into the opponent's goal, which is called a goal. The team that scores the most goals at the end of the game wins.

I started training when I was 12 years old and from then on, I didn't stop until I was 17, I mainly played at school, and I also played for a while in a private club.

After that came the pandemic and clearly you could not practice sports, that made me lose a lot of practice. Although I am currently training in the handball team of the faculty.

An expert/person in my field that I admire I think that in the short time I have been studying, I have not yet found a reference that causes me admiration, however I want to highlight an iconic woman in the chemical area, Marie Curie. She was a Polish scientist and naturalized French citizen , a pioneer in the field of reactivity, the first woman to receive a Nobel Prize, she received the Nobel Prize in chemistry for the discovery of two new chemical elements and the Nobel Prize in physics for her work on radiation. I consider her an admirable person because at that time, at the beginning of the 20th century, to be a scientist, academic or researcher was practically impossible, in her country women could not access higher education, and despite that, in what I consider an act of female empowerment, she went to France and managed to study at the university, demonstrating to have the same and better capabilities than men in the same area, and being recognized worldwide for her achievemen

A photo and its story This picture, or rather, what is in it is very important to me, it is a picture of Cristobal, my nephew, on his 11th birthday with his cat "Wilson" in his arms. The story of this picture is very special, my nephew since he was very young has loved animals, especially cats, he had long wanted to adopt one, but for space issues did not allow it, this year he asked many times to adopt one and for his birthday I looked for a kitten for him (because I had to give him the pleasure haha) and that made him very happy. It means a lot cause he is the most important person for me, he is like a little brother and the best company always hahaha. In the picture you can see how happy he was that day, for turning over a decade and for his new pet and seeing him like that makes me so happy.
