 Santiago, our city is very big.  So big that I do not know all the  areas of the city.  Really I don´t think that somebody have been in everywhere.  I live in Peñalolén,  and the most part of my friends and family live in areas like Macul, Peñalolén, Ñuñoa, Providencia.  Also I use to have to go to the center of the city.  I have been in Puente Alto, La cisterna, Pedro Aguirre Cerda, Estación Central, Maipu, Las Condes, La Reina, but I am not there very often. There I have just named  11 of the…¿43? Areas,  I am not sure of the correct number.         About the things I don´t like is first at all that this city is so big. So big that sometimes I feel it a little invasive. And the smog Cloud makes it sad.    What I do like about this city are the streets at the twilight and Night. When there are less cars and people.  If you are in the center you would listen bands playing music in the sidewalk,  friends  walking,  riding relaxed their bikes or taking out the dogs.     If I could change things, I would restrict the number of the levels of the buildings to no more of 5 or 6. Also I would like more parks and bikeways.        And my favorite tip is the Cerro San Cristobal.  A Hill inside the city. You can go to make exercise, or just walk between the trees and see the city from a different point, with the good and bad things.

  5. I hate that Santiago have his areas delimited so hardly because difficult the comunication beatween the residents. I loved that you named the problem of the levels of the bouldings because I really think that that big constructions in Santiago are destroying it.

  6. It's an interesting point your idea about Santiago it's to big, that makes me feel like every area it's a different universe, with differents social classes and differents cultures... Santiago definitely have to be more uniform and inclusive. Take care! :)
