Santiago of Chile is a grey city. Every
morning, when I go to the University, I see the angry, unfriendly and bitter
people’s faces and that deeply shocks me. How did we get this? How can we
change it? I believe it’s a work of all of us make this city a better place every
day. Actions like greet people smiling are very healthy for our society,
because I think that we don’t share much with others, we are so individualistic
that we don’t care very much about the people who is in our side when we don’t
know them. We can change this fact just changing our attitude, choosing a
positive and kind perspective of the world.
What I like the most from Santiago is the
variety of places that we can visit. Have an historic tour, an entertaining
tour, or a culinary tour is very pleasant and you have too many possibilities in
the city and surrounding. Probably, Santiago is the noisiest place that I ever
lived, but you can retire to other beautiful places to get some peace, like
Buddhist temples located in Providencia or beautiful parks like the Quinta
Normal, Japanese Park of Hill San Cristóbal, Sculptures Park, etc. I think that
some visitors want to discover this syncretism of Santiago in every way.
This city is an example of the alienated life
that we are carrying, but we have the opportunity of change this every day,
having forged a reconnection with ourselves and the people around us.
