PROMOTING CHILE!

Hello people today I`ll talk about the most beautiful country in the world: CHILE :D

First of all you have to know that Chile is the longes country in the world and it was known as "Finis Terrae" which means the end of the world because of its location. It's located in South America, just beside Argentina.

I like Chile not just because I'm chilean, of course, I like it because it has a lot of beautiful and touristic places you can go, with a huge diversity of landscapes, weathers, beaches all along the country, lakes, and whatever you can imagine! Even if you want to know a totally different culture, you can go to Isla de Pascua, place of the mysticals Moais.
If you like cold weather and rivers or lakes, you can go the South where you'll find the most beautiful landscapes ever. You can go on a tour to Salto del Laja in the VII region of Bio-Bio or also Saltos del Petrohué in Los Lagos region or Caburga's lake in the city of Pucon, etc.

If you hate cold weather and you like beaches and sunny days and feeling warm always, you can visit the North! where you'll find extensives beaches in Iquique and Antofagasta with warm water.
If you don't like beaches, you can go to the desert! We have the most arid desert on the world which is Desert of Atacama.

ok....I could be talking about a hundred more places, but the idea is that if you want to travel somewhere, you choose our country :) you won't regret about it.

Beautiful Countries

There are many beautiful places on Earth, but I like one in particular: The Alps.

That is one of the reasons I would like to visit France. I've always wanted to go to the Alps, specifically to Mont Blanc ("White Mountain" in english) which is the highest mountain in the European Union.
Of course I don't want to go there just to watch it, I would like to go trekking there and get as high as I could...that's the idea. I love trekking because I think that walking into a place is the only way you really apreciate what surround you and then you realize if it's a beautiful place or not.
 Another thing I like about France is it's perfumes, we all know they create the best perfumes in the world. I'm always trying new perfumes when I can, but I know it's not the same if you go directly into the perfume's home.
Of course a visit to the Eiffel Tower would be on my schedule, that is the icon of France and not to visit it would be silly.
I don't know if I would like to live there...I like Chile, it's my country and with all his faults I wouldn't change it for nothing. (211)

Me and my way to classes

Well, I’m very used to travel anywhere by public transport including subway (although we used to have a car, but that was a long time ago) so it is natural for me going to the university by subway first and then get into a transantiago bus and let me tell you something…IT IS REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE.
Every day I walk to Blanqueado station and literally FIGHT to get into the carriage, it’s always crowded and people never get out of the train when the doors open so I have to push them to get in. I don’t like that because I’m a very pacific person and I try to avoid all kind of confrontations. Another thing that bothers me is that it is always HOT, that means I sweat a lot on my way to University so when I leave the subway to wait the 301 bus, I always get cold, specially now we’re in winter.
Other problem is that the bus is not very reliable about the time it arrives to the bus stop. The waiting may last a minute or 15 o even 30 sometimes…that sucks.
Lately I’ve tried to earn some money to buy a bike, and when I do it, I will definitely use it to go to University.
