First impressions
*it's wide !
it's amazingly wide. Almost one million people living here, and no house with more than two floors; each street is as wide as any french boulevard. It seems like streets were build and then one decided to put houses in the middle. Anyway, don't trust the map : a walk during which you have to cross only 4 streets can be a 20 min walk ...
*it's hot !
30-40 deg during the day, 25-35 during the night... when you wake up, it's not necessary to wonder wheter the wheater will be fine or not, you're sure the sun will shining... the only question is : will I survive until the night ? There are little water fontains almost everywhere, therefore it's not so complicated to walk through the university, but I feel always thirsty, all day long.
