The route at sunset
A road stretches between open fields, with wooden posts and barbed wire accompanying the route. The sun is low and casts long shadows on the asphalt, while the sky is tinged with orange, pink and violet tones. In the distance, a motorcycle moves slowly and disappears into the trees. The wind moves the grass on the shoulder and kicks up a little dust. Everything conveys a sense of freedom, as if you can keep moving forward without worrying too much about the destination. It's the kind of place where listening to music while taking in the scenery feels like a completely different experience.

The street of the golden trees
A quiet street, surrounded by old houses and huge trees that form a natural roof over the sidewalks. During autumn, the leaves take on yellow, orange, and brown hues, and some slowly fall onto the pavement. The sun's rays pass through the branches and draw elongated shadows on the ground. There are the occasional parked car, old lanterns and windows from which the sound of a radio escapes. There is not much movement; just a neighbor walking or a person returning home. It is one of those places that seem to keep thousands of stories.

The lake hidden between the mountains
A lake with crystal clear waters rests between mountains covered with trees. The water has a turquoise green hue and reflects the landscape as if it were a mirror. On the shore there is a small wooden bench, slightly worn by the passage of time, facing the lake. The breeze moves the branches of the trees and causes small ripples on the surface of the water. The air is fresh, clean and has that smell of damp vegetation that you feel especially after rain. There are no large crowds or annoying noises; only the sound of water, birds and leaves moving. It is a perfect place to sit, listen to music or simply contemplate the scenery without having to do anything.

The village at night
The streets are almost empty and the sky has a dark blue hue, illuminated by a bright moon. The lanterns project small patches of yellowish light on the sidewalks, while the houses remain silent behind their closed windows. Crickets, dogs barking in the distance and a motorcycle that crosses the town before disappearing can be heard. Electrical wires cross the sky between the poles and the treetops move gently in the wind. It's a quiet night, one of those in which going for a walk seems like a good idea and time passes much more slowly.

The quiet neighborhood of a lifetime
A small neighborhood of low houses, wide sidewalks and trees that have been growing for decades in front of the houses. Some houses have old fences, gardens with flowers and bicycles leaning against the walls. From a window you can hear a television on; from another, a family talks while preparing dinner. A dog sleeps under the shade of a tree, and in the corner, a person walks slowly with a bag of freshly bought bread. When evening falls, the lights in the houses begin to turn on and the sky takes on a pink hue. It is a neighborhood that transmits familiarity, as if everyone knew each other since they were children and every corner had a hidden memory.

The path by the river
A narrow path follows the course of a river that crosses an area covered with vegetation. On one side grow trees with thick trunks and branches inclined towards the water; on the other, small shrubs and wildflowers. The current moves slowly, producing a steady, soothing sound as it hits the stones. There are areas where sunlight passes through the leaves and reflects off the water in small flashes. Near the shore there are some flat stones where it is possible to sit and rest. The atmosphere is cool, especially during the early hours of the morning, when a light mist covers the landscape.

The lonely house by the road
A small country house is set back from the village, surrounded by open fields and leafy trees. The paint on the walls is somewhat worn, the windows are made of wood and a gallery runs along the front. There are flower pots, an old table, and a rocking chair that creaks when someone sits down. Near the entrance, a dirt road connects the house with the main road. In the mornings you can hear the crowing of the roosters and the wind among the trees; In the evenings, the sun illuminates the gallery with a warm, golden light. As night falls, the sky fills with stars and the countryside is plunged into a deep silence. It seems like the kind of house where summers last forever in the memory.

The forest after the rain
A quiet forest remains covered with small drops of water that shine on the leaves. The ground is moist, covered with dark soil, fallen roots and leaves. Rays of light filter through the trees and illuminate the mist suspended in the air. You can hear the dripping of water from the branches, the occasional song of a bird and the rustling of leaves under the steps. The smell of wet earth is intense and the air is fresh. There are no paths that are too wide or signs that interrupt the landscape, only a path that gets lost among the trees. The place has a special tranquility, as if it were apart from everything else.

The village square at dusk
A small square, surrounded by quiet streets and old buildings, occupies the centre of the village. In the middle is a stone fountain and several benches placed under leafy trees. The leaves move in the breeze and some elderly people chat while watching the neighbors pass by. Near the sidewalk, a kiosk remains open and lets out the sound of a radio. The children play in the distance while the last rays of the sun illuminate the facades of the houses. Gradually, the sky turns purple and the lights of the lanterns begin to turn on. It is a simple, everyday place full of that beautiful nostalgia that appears when one remembers one's childhood.

The mill among the pastures
In the middle of an extensive plain stands an old mill surrounded by tall pastures and scattered trees. A wooden fence delimits the land and a narrow path leads to a small construction nearby. The wind blows freely, tilting the grasses in different directions and crunching the oldest parts of the mill. During sunset, golden light covers the landscape and the distant mountains take on a bluish hue. There are no tall buildings or artificial lights to interrupt the view; only countryside, sky and immense tranquility. It's one of those scenarios where a character could spend an entire afternoon thinking about their life.

The daily routine of the inhabitants
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT WACHINESSS
We have to define how a normal day goes in the village.
In the morning: workers get up early, bakeries open, animals receive food and some neighbors go out to buy.
In the afternoon: the children return from school, the laborers finish some tasks, the neighbors drink mate and the young people gather in the square.
At night: families have dinner, some inhabitants go out to the bar, teenagers gather in a house and the streets become quiet.
And on weekends everything changes: there are soccer games, dances, family gatherings, unexpected visits and patron saint festivities.
Not all characters have to follow the same routine. Some work at night, others get up late and others are busy getting into trouble or punching each other. KJJJJ
Festivities and traditions:
A people without traditions loses an important part.
Annual village festival: a celebration with music, food stalls, games and dances.
Dressage and folklore festival: traditional activities related to gaucho culture.
Football championship: a competition that pits different groups against each other.
Rural fairs: sale of vegetables, homemade sweets, handicrafts and local products.
Family celebrations: birthdays, weddings, baptisms and anniversaries.
