Fuck Santiago though haha. But that's also another one of our jokes. No one hates Chile's capital more than someone who has lived there. <3

So everyone just stayed there. The isolation made for a fun concotion of language and culture. I know its pure fucking luck that I ended up there. But I enjoy having that in me, the slang, the jokes, the food. No harm in that.

Chile is a young country that was made out of different european colonies plus the indigenous people. Geographic borders (the andes, desert and the south pole) made travel from and to Chile extremely difficult back then.

Metren: Context is indeed very important. Countries that have suffered colonisation tend to display greater joy towards aspects of their culture.

I agree with Rod. I also think context plays a huge role. The Estonian singing revolution was a display of pride despite Soviet annexation and occupation. That’s okay, but it differs greatly from national pride in most other cases

And when you feel like saying that after all this, you missed the entire point.

thank you, Nejde
