That black thing is moving!

When you travel you can find a lot of good things, like places, food, stores or
new things that are not in your country. Life has taught us that nothing is a
hundred percent perfect, so possibly you will see or live something that you
won’t like.
That is why in this article I will tell you my experience about one of those
things that you might not find that cool: BUGS! This will be useful for you to
know and identify them, knowing some techniques to avoid these unpleasant
guests.
For all my vacations I go to Pto. Varas (X Region of
Chile), so the most of my experiences with bugs have
been there or where I used to live, Concepcion (VIII
Region of Chile).
Once I was walking around in Pto. Varas, enjoying the
view of the Volcano, the lake, and all the green of
that city, suddenly I could hear a buzz around me,
and at the same time a black thing flying around. I
got scare and I didn’t know what to do, but
fortunately I was with my cousin who is from there.
He told me that those bugs were Horseflies, and that
they will follow you if you move a lot. You can repel
them by staying almost freeze or with a repellent
which is in every drugstore.
Another experience that I had with bugs was last February.
I was in my grandma`s cabin, we were talking about life, and
in one moment I could see a lot of little black things in the
window, What the heaven? I Said. My grandma told me that
they were gnat, and they normally bite giving you an itchy at
the same time. That’s why you have to take care of not
scratch the place where itches because it will be worse.
