Blog Session 2: The best concert I've had

It's been a long time since i went to my last concert. It was Roger Water's The Wall tour on 2012. That was one hell of a concert. A truly unbelievable experience given by the ex member of the iconic rock band, Pink Floyd.

The concert took place at the National Stadium. There where thousands of people reunited on the streets along the stadium hours before they opened the gates. I remember the struggle to get in the line, and the lines were endless! I think we all thought in a moment that we wouldn't make it. The nervousness felt in the air. 

Then, the moment came, the gates were open and the real chaos began. It was a every man for himself situation. My friends and I achieving to get in was the first victory of the day. The rest was pure joy.

The concert was amazing. Roger Water and his band played all the concept album The Wall with a fantastic staging. There was a combination of lights, structures, acting and, of course, the music. I remember all of my friends enjoying the music, screaming at every new song, and chanting with the heart. 

When I remember all those good feelings given by a concert I really liked to be on a new one. Then, when I checked the prices of the concerts lately, I prefer not to.

Blog Session 0: Things I love and hate about Santiago

Hi, my name is Cristóbal and I'm going to speak about the things I love and hate about Santiago de Chile.

I think one of the things that I love the most of Santiago is that the public transport runs at any hour. I live on Puente Alto, a peripheral municipality, and the fact that I can get to my house from downtown even if it's late is something I appreciate.

Another thing that I love is that there is a lot of things to do. There is a lot of museums, parks, places to eat, etc. so is up to you how you want to expend your joy time. There is also the Gam which is a place with a lot of cultural activities, much of them free.

On the other side, Santiago is a very contaminated city, in every way. There is a lot of traffic, the air is awful full of pollute and is a noisy noisy place. Also, the rhythm of life is vertiginous so the people are always on a rush. This city needs to relax a little.

Well, that's my opinion of Santiago de Chile. I may have other things to say but I'll keep it for now.

Thanks for reading.
