We took this photography about three years ago when we took a trip to Turkey. We went to Turkey to visit some friends. This photo is one of the most beautiful landscapes of Istanbul. 
This picture shows the Bosphorus which is a narrow, natural strait and an internationally significant waterway located in northwestern Turkey. One can also see Hagia Sophia (Sancta Sophia in Latin), one of the most famous mosque in the world because of its history. Hagia Sophia is the former Greek Orthodox Christian patriarchal cathedral, later an Ottoman imperial mosque and now a museum. You can still see many pictures of Christian’s saints and crosses.
Another interesting thing in this photo is the ferries docked. These ferries are taken by hundreds of people every day when they go to work from East to West. In other words, Istanbul has a European and Asian side. So one needs to cross the strait to move to downtown where most of the businesses are located.
I also like this photo very much because it brings me many good memories of my trip and the people we met in Turkey, wonderful and happy people.

EXAMPLE

•  Why did I choose to study ____?

• What did I know about this career that attracted me?

• Why Universidad de Chile?

I chose to study sociology because I thought I would change the society where I lived. This was my dream. This was many years ago. Today, I know it was just a dream. Even though, many things have changed in our society, these changes have not been what I dreamt. My dream was to live a more fair society where everyone had the same opportunities, not only few. A society where people were treated as equals, no matter from where they came from, where they study, what color was their skin, what religion they practiced, what sexual preference they have, etc.

Sociology had a very interesting curricula, I learned many interesting things about society, about many different social scientists and some economic concepts that allowed me to understand the kind of world we lived at that time and today.

I studied in Universidad de Chile, but the coup came and I had to leave this wonderful career. I chose this university because it had the best professors at that time. A group of intellectual professors who wrote many and interesting books. The relationship with them was very close with us, the students. We spent many hours talking about the Chilean and worldwide social situation. This was a very nice time at this university for me.
