Dominica (/dəˈmɪˌnɪkə/ or /ˌdɒmɪˈniːkə/; French: Dominique; Island Carib: Wai‘tu kubuli), officially the Commonwealth of Dominica, is a sovereign island country.[8] The capital, Roseau, is located on the leeward side of the island. It is part of the Windward Islands in the Lesser Antilles archipelago in the Caribbean Sea. The island lies south-southeast of Guadeloupe and northwest of Martinique. Its area is 750 km2 (290 sq mi), and the highest point is Morne Diablotins, at 1,447 m (4,747 ft) in elevation. The population was 71,293 at the 2011 census.[5]
The island was originally inhabited by the Kalinago and later colonised by Europeans, predominantly by the French from the 1690s to 1763. Columbus is said to have passed the island on Sunday, 3 November 1493, and the island's name is derived from the Latin for Sunday. Great Britain took possession in 1763 after its defeat of France in the Seven Years' War, and it gradually established English as the official language. The island republic gained independence in 1978.
Its name is pronounced with stress falling either on second syllable of the word, after the Latin word dŏmĭnĭcă lordly, or on the third syllable, after the French name Dominique. Dominica has been nicknamed the Nature Isle of the Caribbean for its natural environment.[9] It is the youngest island in the Lesser Antilles, still being formed by geothermal-volcanic activity, as evidenced by the world's second-largest hot spring, called Boiling Lake. The island has lush mountainous rainforests, and is the home of many rare plants, animals, and bird species. There are xeric areas in some of the western coastal regions, but heavy rainfall occurs inland. The Sisserou parrot, also known as the imperial amazon and found only on Dominica, is the island's national bird and featured on the national flag. Dominica's economy depends on tourism and agriculture.

Chile, Santiago´s fast economy and the search for happiness
Chile is the biggest economy in South America, but people seem to be less happy than other South Americans. In the Chilean capital Santiago Stef visits a symbol for the growing economy, the highest skyscraper in South America. The symbol for the fast economy now faces the reverse of that success story: an unprecedented high percentage of depression and suicides. It seems that Chileans are less happy and suffer more from depression than other South Americans. Why are Chileans so unhappy?
Dutch presenter and film maker Stef Biemans travels across the back of the Andes and wonders how people are doing in South America. In the second episode of this documentary series across the back of the Andes he experiences life in the capital city of Chile. In Santiago he is confronted with people that are unhappy, depressed and jump from the skyscraper that once was a symbol for the growing economy. What happened that people decide to end their life by jumping from the tower? Chile has the strongest economy of South America. Is the mental health of the Chileans suffering under capitalism? Where did it go wrong?
The highest tower in South America is beyond the smog of Santiago. He is the symbol of the strong neoliberal economic system. The pride of Chile. But almost every month someone jumps off the tower. The depression figures are nowhere in the world as high as in this country, although the economy is exploding. In and around this skyscraper, Stef looks for where it went wrong. What are the preconditions of success and how do you survive in the smog of neoliberalism? And what does the young Chilean really enjoy? With music, religion, laughter therapy and a Freudian bench people are searching for enlightenment.

Visitando un Supermercado en Japón + Precios de Comida
¿Cómo son los supermercados en Japón? En este video nos vamos de compras a Lion D'Or, un típico supermercado japonés, y les mostramos el tipo de comidas que uno puede comprar, como sashimi, ramen, pulpo, sake, sushi, yakisoba, cerveza y comidas listas.
Lo que más nos sorprendió fueron los precios de la fruta en Japón. Como ya veran, frutas como melones, manzanas, naranjas y sandias pueden costar un mónton de dinero y estas frutas también vienen bien empaquetadas como para no dañarlas.
Esperamos que encuentren este tour del interior de un supermercado en Japón interesante, y cuentennos, ¿qué diferencias notan ustedes entre los supermercados japoneses y los de sus países?

Places to see in ( Aix les Bains - France ) Lac du Bourget
Places to see in ( Aix les Bains - France ) Lac du Bourget
Lac du Bourget (Lake Bourget), also locally known as Lac Gris (Grey Lake) or Lac d'Aix, is a lake at the southernmost end of the Jura Mountains in the department of Savoie, France. It is the deepest lake located entirely within France, and either the largest or second largest after Lac de Grand-Lieu depending on season.
The largest town on its shore is Aix-les-Bains. Chambéry, the capital of Savoie, lies about 10 km south of the lake. The lake is mainly fed by the river Leysse (and other small rivers), and it drains towards the river Rhône through the Canal de Savières, an artificial channel. It is a Ramsar site. The extinct bezoule was found only in this lake.
The lake was formed during the last period of global glaciation in the Alps (Würm glaciation) during the Pleistocene epoch. It has a surface area of 44.5 square kilometres (4,450 hectares). The long and narrow north-south axis of the lake extends 18 km in length, and ranges between 1.6 km and 3.5 km in width. The lake's average depth is 85 m, and its maximum depth in 145 m. The lake is meromictic, meaning that it has layers that do not mix.
The lake is bordered by the steep summits of the Mont du Chat and the Chaîne de l'Épine on the west, and Bauges Mountains on the east, which form its shores. Lac du Bourget was made famous by several romantic poems of Alphonse de Lamartine, including Le Lac, as well as by descriptions by Xavier de Maistre, Honoré de Balzac, and Alexandre Dumas.
