Transantiago

The actual system of public transportation it’s thousands of year beyond the past yellow buses. In general terms Transantiago it’s a good system of public transportation . . . but it still have a lot of problems specially in the peripherals neighborhoods, whit some routes. The system of public transport it’s now stable, but in the beginning was a mess, in comparatives wais, the old public transport was much better than the brand new Transantiago. It need it a lot of time, patience and money to fix it to an acceptable way.
The main reason of the failure of Transantigo, in it’s beginnings, was the poor pacification, they focus the system in to the minimum cost possible . . . but the government didn’t think about what the people wants and need. This was another political move for the government and a business for the companies involve, and not a need of the people. After all, this system it’s more expensive that they think.
One of the problems for the future it is the expensive that the ticket it’s getting, discouraging the use of the public transport, and actually encoring the use of cars making the environment worse. In almost all the world the public transportation it’s subsidized, and there are examples like Iceland were the public transportation it’s free. The governments necessarily have to think beyond the economic cost, and also start to listen to the people for the best of all.

I WANT TO TRAVEL!!!!

Well well well . . . mmm I really want to go to Barcelona in this next vacations . . . I’m working and saving money for that, that’s the idea . . . I have my reason, it’s a beautiful place but I have been already there and I was hopping not to come back in a long time . . . because I wanted to travel to other places before. . . but how I said I have my reasons. But if something happens and I don’t travel to Spain instead I would like to travel the north of Peru and Ecuador . . .I meet a lot of people that says that you have to travel to those places, that is a friendly place whit beautiful beaches and landscapes. . And for the next year I would like to travel to New Zeeland or Australia , first to work and recover the money spend on the tickets and everything . . . and whit the extra money travel to the north, like Thailand, Vietnam, Taiwan, Laos and if I can and the money allow it, go to India. That’s a very big trip . . . I’m calculating like 7 moths for the whole thing . . . so I have one year and something to prepare it, but now I’m focus in Spain. I have a friend that traveled to new Zeeland to work and did that trip that I want to do.

In my short life I have the opportunity to travel and visit a lots of countries, but I think that Asia and Oceanic are places totally different from the places I already visit. I love to travel, to meet different people, places, landscapes, airs . . .and I will do it until I can.

FIRST HALF !

I enjoy a lot the first term of this year, especially because a meet a lot of new people. In academic terms it was a good term, I pass all subjects with regular grades, taken in care that I have 8 subjects, in this term to. I was able to go out this winter vacation, I went whit my girlfriend to the central coast, but we first went to Pomaire and the Melipilla, we were “Conejeando”, in the road we were deciding our destiny, son after Melippilla we went to san Antonio then Cartagena and after that to el Tabo, and then to Isla Negra and we finally went to Algarrobo to a cousins house, we did all that in 4 days. It was a wonderful trip, for both of us, but especially for Marina because she is from another country and didn’t know the central coast. After that trip we take a rest of two days and with some friends we went three days to San Jose of Maipo, we have the luck that when we just arrive it was snowing.

In short terms it was a good firs half of the year . . . I hope that this one it’s better.

Ah! and welcome back to the blog!
