Public Transit Etiquette

The C-Train in Calgary is good, especially compared with the public transportation in Venezuela. In my country the public transportation is really bad. We don't have any maps for know where the buses go or any schedule for them. The drivers passed when they want. Sometimes they are really rudes with the passengers, and the have an assistant who is the person in charger to colet the money for the use of the bus. There are no rules with the number of people they can get on the buses and often are too crowded. Is normal when you hear the driver screaming, walk to the end of the bus is growing. In addition there are just a few bus stops and they stopping when they want. Buses are big and the drivers are really rude to individual drivers even they take a way the right of be on the route. For all these reason I believe that the public trasportation in Calgary is amazing.

The World South Africa 2010

Every four years is the world cup of soccer, this year is in South Africa and is the first time this happens in Africa and there are many expectations about this.

Venezuela is a country where most people prefer baseball, whoever this is changing all the days. Every year grow more soccer fans and is for the extraordinary performing of the soccer players around the world. Many young people tray to copy the moves of the yours favourite players. Ronaldo, Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, are just a few excellent players who played arround the world. In this world cup I will try to watch as many games as that I can. In my childhood I play soccer often with my friends in my neighbourhood. For some time I had been joging and I keep doing this in Calgary. My two favourites team are Argentina and Spain; I hope one of them can win.

Calgary a great place to live.

Any big city in the world has crimes and Calgary is not an exception; however, comparable to the number of people it has is very safe city. Calgary has almost the same population that my hometown Maracaibo. Every weekend there are at least six violet crimes. The last time I was victim of a crime was in my work, when tree guys entered and assaulted all the people who were there. Is a coommon practice in Maracaibo that the people are going to their work or homes by different routes to avoid being followed by the criminals. The best way to prevent any crimes is to be vigilant and inform to police about any suspicious activity.
