SWISS ALPS JUNGFRAU-ALETSCH

THE SWISS ALPS JUNGFRAU-ALETSCH

The extension of the natural World Heritage property of Jungfrau - Aletsch - Bietschhorn (first inscribed in 2001), expands the site to the east and west, bringing its surface area up to 82,400 ha., up from 53,900. The site provides an outstanding example of the formation of the High Alps, including the most glaciated part of the mountain range and the largest glacier in Eurasia. It features a wide diversity of ecosystems, including successional stages due particularly to the retreat of glaciers resulting from climate change. The site is of outstanding universal value both for its beauty and for the wealth of information it contains about the formation of mountains and glaciers, as well as ongoing climate change. It is also invaluable in terms of the ecological and biological processes it illustrates, notably through plan succession. Its impressive landscape has played an important role in European art, literature, mountaineering and alpine tourism.

EXPERIENCES

One of my dreams was to go to London and last Febrary finally I could make it reality, so I went to London with my family and it was an amazing experience, We stayed there for three days and we visited all the famous places(M&M's world, London eye, Big Bang...). My family told me that we went there to improve my english so I was a kind of guide and translator and it was so funny!

Another of my dreams was to own a horse and aproximetly a year ago my granny bought me a horse. I learned a lot of things and I learned that if you want soimething you had to work hard and in this way you can reach it. 

When I was little I loved to do ice skateing, so every winter when the ice rink was in Girona all my family went there, so one year I was skateing but I was failling all the times and when it was time to go and had lunch I can't sat on the chair of the restaurant, that was an embarassing moment!

As I always said I want to do a sabatic year, but I know my parents won't let me do it, but it would be an amazing year, I will go to a lot of diferent countries to descober new tradicions, languages, food, culture, etc... and in this way I could learn how to take care of my self and see if I'm a resposable person.

I talked with my family and maybe we can go to Berlin next Febrary, it will be a good travel because we never had been there and I really love to travel and see new places.

If we can't go to Berlin we will go to Ireland, in this way I can finally meet my internet friend Sofia and descober the procedents of the Connemara pony one of my favourite horse breed.
