about Santiago...

I was born in a different city that Santiago.  I lived in Osorno city, in the south of Chile.  In the 2009, I arrived in Santiago because the academic offers in my city are few. I didn’t like my city, because I think that the opportunities are more restrictive.
So, I know the Santiago city just any years old.  However, I believe that Santiago not “sucks” as say the all people that ask me:  Why you arrive Santiago with the all bad things it has? (Pollution, expensive, dangerous city, etc) 
I believe that the “capital” city has many positives aspects that the people don’t see, maybe they aren`t want to know the other “reality” about other regions of the country. For example, I remember when in same year that I arrived,   I saw more “jobs offers” for distinct employment. So I thought:   How the people in this city say that are not have employments if in my region are not anything possibility as these?  I believe that this example shows the “differences” between regions and for this I think that Santiago is not very very bad. I don`t know if you understand my idea :S
I like other things of this city as to go the Cerro San Cristòbal or going the museum.  However, Santiago has other bad things. I hate the “rhythm life” of this city. All people always run as crazy man. Sometimes,   there are not reasons for does it.  Other thing that I hate is the transport cost. Is more expensive!  Besides, I dislike the excessive arrogance that I see in the people when I going to the “smart neighbourhood”. 
I would like to change some aspects. I believe that is more necessary to create many cycle paths in this city, also the towns council must to invest  more resources for to clean the streets in the “peripherals   sectors”.  Why the people that live here cannot have clean spaces?

  3. Santiago not is Chile, many people forget that.

    "Why the people that live here cannot have clean spaces?"
    My eternal question, I do it every day, maybe for fifteen or ten years ago.
