TRANSANTIAGO >> BEFORE AND AFTER


Well, in my opinion it is a transport system that has good and bad aspects:


I think that to implement a reform in the public transport is a good initiative, because the old public transport was not very good, was out to order, but the Transantiago wasn’t a solution, because is implementation was awful.


The project wasn’t plan adequately for the Santiago city. The plan was copy from other countries, but it wasn’t according to our city. The routes were design badly, and the travels take a lot of time.


When this system start, it was a disaster because was implement poorly, and the people suffer a lot of troubles. The first year of the transantiago was an absolutely chaos, but now, the system is a little bit better, but in my opinion “even isn’t a good transport system.


In my personal experience, Transantiago isn’t a problem, because I live out of the city, and I don’t use this system all the time, and after, when was the old public transport system I wasn’t use it, so, in my experience, I can’t to make a comparison.


I think that the system will have to improve slowly and adapt to the necessities of the people of the Santiago city.

a country I would like to visit: Mexico



Well, I would like to visit a lot of countries, such as Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, China, India, but now, the country that most I would like to visit is Mexico.
I would like to go there because is a magnificent country, it is huge, is one of the largest countries in the world, and has a very diverse geography: it have mountains, plains, volcanoes, and beaches.
Also, Mexico has a huge range of climates: cold, temperate, humid climate, and tropical.
I think that it's if very funny, with many beautiful places to visit, and to learn. It has heavenly beaches and populous cities. It is very attractive for tourism.

I's a country rich in diversity, not all in geography, in culture too.
In it's great extension there a lot of different people, customs, ethnicity, and I like this.
Also, Mexico has a very interesting history, because it housed some of the greatest civilizations in the world: Maya and Azteca. Actually, this country has monumental ruins, and is one of the places more interesting for the archeology.

I would like to go to Mexico, in a few year more years, to go to study. I want to do a postgraduate anthropology related when I finish my career
