My new experiences in Chicago !!!

Hello friends, today i want to talk about my new experiences in the beautiful city of chicago.
On Wednesday, we visited the Harold Washintong library, it was very interesting that it was one of the largest libraries in the world. 
It's a very relaxed and friendly place to visit. One of the most interesting things was to see how they made 3D impressions of objects with different materials, and they made many figures in strange ways.



I think the lifestyle in Chicago compared to the city of Santiago is largely similar.
One of the interesting and different things is that people in Chicago are very friendly, at least with foreign people.


walking to downtown
Also surprised me that life here is expensive, many people in Chile had told me that United States is more cheaper, but looking shops I have not found very cheap stuff, the prices are very similar in Chile.



About the food , the food here in Chicago  is usually very tasty. And some things have much seasoning and sugar. 
I think that Kendall food is very tasty, my favorite dish was a type of fish that had red wine but i can't remember his name.

The dish that i liked least was a kind of omelet that had lots of onions and quite spicy. I can't remember his name. :/ 

About the weather
Winter in Chicago is very cold. I think I've never felt so cold before. On a very cold day in Santiago city is -4 degrees, bur here it is minus 20 or so.


The wind in Chicago is very strong and so is the snow. We have to cover our faces that begins to ache with the cold.

Meet Chicago is totally different. It feels a little strange the first days since everyone speaks English, and is a bit complicated and communicate with other people. 
Also, I feel like the streets and the buildings are larger.

Compared to Chicago to Santiago, is not much difference. But I think is more expensive than Santiago like the cigars and fruit. Also the bread is different, in Chile I always eat  marraqueta and hallulla bread, and here this bread does not exist.
