It is hard to summarize the year 2018, I think is because it has not ended yet. However, this year has been in many ways a good year. I have been able to do many things that I always wanted to. For instance, I took a wonderful vacation. I visited several cities in Peru.  I learned a lot about its culture and the Incas.

In this trip, I visited Machu Picchu. This is a wonderful place. The architecture, the landscape and surroundings where is located are like a paradise. The houses and temples are built by cutting rocks from the mountains. One can feel the mystic of this place in every step around this city. For this and other reason, Machu Picchu has been nominated one of the Seven Wonders of the World.

Another good point of this year was my older child graduation from the university. Today, he has become a biotechnologist. This made me very proud of his achievements. I believe he will be able to become a very good professional.

The things that they did not go well this year are the illnesses among some of my family members. Hopefully everyone has gotten well and today they are back on their feet.

One thing that I have not done yet this year is to finish an e-class that I began few weeks ago. This class is about bonsai, a Japanese art form using miniature trees grown in containers. The Japanese tradition dates back over a thousand years.

Well I hope this year continues its course and ends as a good year for everyone.
