Today I will talk about Germany, which is the country that I want to see the most!

I'd like to study an academic program there about History or Political Science since those are the fields that I like and know. Why in Germany? Well, that's because since I was a teenager I wanted to travel and live in Europe, and I fell in love with this country because of what it has, the landscapes (like its giant forests and the Alps at the south) , the cities, and the history that went through this lands. Actually, it is incredible to see how this nation could stand being divided between two countries for so long time during the XX century and how the traces of those sad times are still visible for example in Berlin (which is the city in the photo): like the pieces of the old wall that divided the city in two, or through demographics -for example in religious beliefs or political opinion- changes radically between the neighbours of the city.

1984 from George Orwell

Between my favourite books, the dystopian world created by the british author is one of the best books I've ever read. The story is about a guy called Winston Smith who works in the Ministry of True of the fictious country of Oceania (a dark version of the British Empire); the work of Winston consists in rewrite the history of the country -and the world- by order of the government. He's part of the propaganda machine of the state, propaganda that promotes the devotion of the 'Big Brother' (the supposed ruler of Oceania) in the population. The book follows the life of Winston and how he starts rebelling (individually) against the control of the system and agaisnt the Big Brother.

It is indeed a really good book that shows the vision that Orwell has of what were going to be the results of the Cold War, the suspense is through the whole book, so I recommend it.
