For me studying in Santiago has been an interesting situation because for one side has been  difficult to me get use to the traffic, and the logs distances that I must do every day, but also I like that I can get anything I need, staff for the university, or get a drink with some friend, and even if you have to go to the doctor its really close, I could go just walking or taking a bike, because unlike of where I live, I have to do everything by car or with the bus.
