A big city?

Hi comrades in arms!
The topic’s today it’s really funny, because, I grew up in a little town and constantly in this city I think in the way that I relation with Santiago. When was a child I knew that I would live in Santiago, the reason why I don’t have clear, but I found this city fascinating.
I live in Santiago since 2009, when I come to study here, before I come to this city more or less once in the month, my family on my father’s side live here. My relation with the city it’s changing constantly, in the beginning, for example I didn’t understand where the municipalities in the relation with the center are, because this is the place that I more know, now I can understand, jajaja!
I need to say something more peasant, in the 2009 caught my attention the incredible numbers of different people, and the lot of cars in the streets, I didn’t understand where appear so much! (I find this funny now, but in that moment I suffered jaja) in Marchigüe I know all the people, all faces and all the cars, and everybody knows me, but I don’t miss that.
I like this city because I can found all I need, I can come to the university, I can go to the cinema, the museums and the doctor, for example, also like me the diversity of people, not really not, because when I go to “La Dehesa” I want to die, this place sucks. This is something that I hate to Santiago, in this city you can found very rich and irresponsible people and people really poor, in Marchigüe happen but not a lot, the people is normal and can share the same places, this city has places for the rich and for the poor, this sucks.
I don’t believe that I can do a real change because the problem it’s bigger and deep.
The tip that I would give to a visitor would be, keep in the center because if you move you can look our sad reality.
I started this post happy, but I finished sad.
