This is the most chaotic and one of the craziest cities in the world, where the gas is 50 times cheaper and easier to find than a bottle of water and the blood of the innocent people runs over the street around the Capital.

As I mentioned before, anybody wants to get stuck in traffic because the probability of being stolen increase easily. Due to this, the traffic shaped me as a very nervous person when I’m in a car. Nevertheless, this is a problem that I could stand during my entire life.
Caracas is a crowded city, where a line of people waiting for buying any kind of basic need like milk, water or chicken is common. It is a routine that my
