Earthquake ´day

The February 27th, I was with my boyfriend on the “Festival de Viña del Mar”, we had just returned to the house of my boyfriend´s family when the earthquake started. At the first place we didn´t understand what was going on because the lights outside exploited and we couldn´t see anything, the next thing that happened was the police screaming to everybody that stayed away from the street, it was very confused. After the earthquake all the family gets together and we started to call to my family in Santiago.

Around 2 pm of the same day we had news about the situation in the country and it was very shocking listen the information and see the reaction of some people in the street that started to steal some supermarket near of the place that we were staying.
For lucky all my family is fine and my closer friends too, but after this there´s a lot of them that have a lot of fear and problems to sleeping.

  2. Hi! So, you were in Viña! People say that in that city it wasn´t so powerful, so for that you have a little lucky. But you were far of your family, and that can be the situation more difficult, I think.
    I hope you can sleep better now!

  3. Hi!!
    About Jaime's comment, i don't think we must call animals to people who was stealling in the supermarket. Ok, it's a bad acttitud, but we have to understand that it's a product of our competitive, consumer and materialist society.

  5. I think that the reaction of some people in that started to steal some supermarket is minor in compared to everything else that other people suffered.
    Bye!

  6. Luckily, the earthquake was after the festival. Can you imagine if it had happened when you were in "la quinta"?
