In these few words try to summarize my experience with the eartquake ...

"The early morning of February 27, 2010, was like any other. I was tired after work and I had slept watching the Festival of Viña del Mar when suddenly I woke up with a horrible sound. I imagined it was just like the ones we are used to in Chile, but I realized that what I was experiencing was different. With my family we all ran to the garden, where we felt safe.

Since that night, we didn’t had without electricity for four days and we were afraid of running out of water. We had no information of what had happened, but slowly started seeing around us, we could see the magnitude of what the nature had caused .
