   Valeria: For example in Argentina if it is raining, it's like you change your schedule a little, right?


 
  Diego: Yeah.
 
  Valeria: Because of the rain, because it's not like every day raining. But here you have to do everything under the rain.
 
  Diego: Yeah, but at the same time it, everything is made and it's built to kind of you know work with the rain.
 
  Valeria: Yeah, for instance, the clothes, right?
 
  Diego: Yeah, the clothes and all the facilities, you know everything is made for that.
 
  Valeria: It's preparing for having a lot of water.
 
  Diego: Yeah, exactly. If you have, I don't know, two or three days in a row that it's raining in Chile, we will have serious problems.
 
  Valeria: The same happens in Argentina.
 
  Diego: Floods and that would be an issue so for me the weather thing is I like rain, just a little bit.
 
  Valeria: Yeah, from time to time it's really nice.
 
  Diego: Yeah, exactly.
 
  Valeria: And enjoyable.
 
  Diego: Yeah.
 
  Valeria: But every day? Yes, it's true. The thing is that the weather is changing, right?
 
  Diego: Yeah.
 
  Valeria: And the infrastructure 1 of my country wasn't prepared for this weather.
 
  Diego: That's true.
 
  Valeria: So if it rains a couple of days in a row, sometimes the city collapses 2.
 
  Diego: That's true. A lot of cities in Latin America have the same problem. They're poorly constructed and for that specific thing and we have a lot of problems especially with poor people. So when you talk about the weather I think it's not only your personal thing, sometimes you have to consider a couple of other factors as well.
 
  Valeria: And the public transport?
 
  Diego: Yeah, I think that's another issue because for us public transportation is just a complete mess.
 
  Valeria: There are a lot of public transport in Argentina but the thing is that all the infrastructure is not prepared for a lot of rain so when it happens sometimes the subway should stop for a couple of hours and that is very annoying.
 
  Diego: Because it changes the whole schedule, right?
 
  Valeria: Yes, definitely.
