Santiago was  my favorite place where my family and I rested in our summer vacations when I was a child, also we visited other relatives in Buenos Aires and Asunción(I was born there) but  Santiago was  where  we spend more time enjoying.  This city had and still has many things that I like for example the weather, it´s not hot and damp compared to Asunción or Bs As (the temperature reaches 38º ) and when it starts the afternoon,  a good idea is going to a park or walk down the street because the wind will appear and the weather will turn nice. 

The proximity between the city and the mountains or the beach is another advantage of Santiago, there are lots of places that you can go for a weekend but of course you need a high Budget and here it begins the stuffs don´t really like it,  this city is one of the most expensive of south america , having a good quality of life is restricted for fewer.  I think this is one reason why people have a bad humor or seeming that they live hurriedly.

If I could change something of Santiago would be the smog but it´s complicated because demolishing a mountain or to establish efficient enviromental laws, it´s very far of our means,    another thing would be public transport, especially the subway and its timetable.

Again, an advantage for the people who want to  know Santiago that main places are on alameda avenue,  the street cross all the city, so you can´t lost.  Don´t worry if you got up late  in this town , everything begins late!!! And of course  enjoy the sun until 9:00 pm .
