Algarrobo

 Hallo everyone, today I will talk to about Algarrobo. It is 120 km from Santiago and it ist located in the quinta region. Algarrobo was born as a fishing village at seashore. later it was transformed into a watering place.This caused the fishermen to be transferred to a town far from the sea and houses were built in the place where they used to have their huts. My grandfather bought a house in the 50's. At that time it was full of forests and the house was practically the only one in what would later become the block.

 Since a little before the pandemic I have lived there. I really like Algarrobo. memories of my childhood cross my mind in every corner. When I was a boy Algarrobo was still a lonely town for much of the year. There were hardly any buildings, the nights were dark and silent only the noise of the waves walked the streets at night. Now it has changed, it has become a small town. Many young people have come to live and this has changed the rhythm of the city. I really like to see how the city changes, grows, destroys its history to create another, while the sea, the rocks and the sky continue their course immutable.
