Hey Chrissti,
What's going to be your theme? What will we come here to discuss? Isn't it cool to be able to interact with tennis fans and talk about more than just tennis?
I love this place.
I don't know!
I'm not entirely sure how this is supposed to work lol
I was just thinking.
crisstti is from Chile.
don't they have the famous Andes Mountains in Chile?
maybe we should to the andes theme. that would be cool too.
perhaps The Spirit Of Chile By Crisstti.
we can do any theme you wish crisstti. all it takes a few seconds.
I am home now so I can change it anything you wish.
this is the stunning Cordillero Del Paine mountains in Chile:
***Cordillera del Paine is a small but spectacular set of mountains in the Chilean Pantagonia located in Torres del Paine National Park. Referred to as the Torres del Paine (Towers of Paine), the three massive summits photographed above are gigantic granite monoliths that are UNESCO-declared biosphere reserves.
Wow!
That is beautiful.
Tell us about Chile, Chrissti.
We want to know about the customs, the educational system, economic systems, mating rituals, religious bent, etc.
This is so exciting!
Oh yeah, Torres del Paine. Way to the South of the country (I'm in the capital city, Santiago, right around the center), my brother in law was there recently. Some idiot caused a fire which burned down a big part of the place about a year ago.
The educational system?, an absolute disaster. Private universities charging huge amounts of money, you have to ask loans from banks at insane interest rates... I cannot tell you the amount of debt I have because of this.
It's actually the most expensive educational system in the world. The elected president, Bachellet, promised to change this but I'd have to see it to believe it. She was president already 4 years ago and did absolutely nothing...
Where are you guys from?.
PS: thanks for helping me out with this
It sounds like our educational system too. A hot political topic for us as well, according to many articles I've read.
I live in North America, in what is called the Midwest. The Midwest is traditional, home-spun, and on the corny side. The people are conservative and culturally a little backward.
It's nowhere near the glitz and excitement of say, a New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, or Las Vegas. It very hard to do something innovative here. People look at you like you're crazy. The city shuts down pretty early except for a few places.
I suppose we get a lot of the Arts, but not much that I am interested in. It's kind of a stifling environment and the weather is iffy, at best. I'd like to move to a warmer climate, but it's too hard to uproot, so this will likely be my final resting place.
I am on the Mississippi gulf coast.
