The Person I Admire







I really admire Antoni Gaudi(1852-1926).
He was one of the most famous architect all over the world. He lived in Spain and he is famous for his unique style and highly individualistic designs.
His most important work is Sagrada Familia(left picture). He started building it in 1884, but until now it has still been built by many architects!
I respect him because he devised the building style without conventional idea. After I graduated the Hokkaido University, I traveled in Spain to see his works. When I saw his works firstly, it really got to me! His building I like the best is Casa Batllo(right picture). When I saw it, I felt that it was the most unique building I have ever seen.
Who do you admire the best?

Hi Yuki! your blog is interesting and understandable. I enjoy reading it; yet, I just want to correct this line , "Since it was started building by him in 1884, it has still been built by many architects!", because there's a little mistake in the construction. Try this one, " He started building it in 1884, but until now it has still been built by many architects.".
On the other hand, the person whom I admire most is my 4-year-old student before, Mathew Rzechula. He was able to save me when I drowned in the swimming pool. The other people just watched me while I was drowning, but Mathew jumped directly and saved me. He's very brave and helpful...thus,I admire him most.
