I do not like too much, those pseudoespacios travel English type and Street in the World Travelers, who scheduled weekly at the First and Four . I was watching, dedicated to San Francisco and I was enormously disappointed. They even managed to transmit, or 10% of the sensations that I experienced last November when I visited this extraordinary city.
Okay, that their experiences, feelings and experiences of each, are what make you have a certain vision of a city, which is not transferable. But when you talk to other passengers, always discover that there are certain elements, links, "in which almost all agree, when we express ourselves, about each place visited, in this case a city. Neither of them was recorded in the issue yesterday.
I have a feeling, that he saw English TV space, should take as a final conclusion that San Francisco is a extravagant city, full of strange and bizarre characters, grotesque and alternative-not to say, rare. One need only review some of the people, if not almost all, which appeared in the documentary:
The designer of the first, which I thought was rather eccentric and bizarre at the end of the issue, I found the most normal of all. Then came the hippie houseboat (and pal Plus lounge), the professional searcher believes alien-surrealism pure, for sneakers with GPS by vibration and smart jacket, to go from laughter, and her husband Raul ... I think in the end, the least shocking of all was the turkey, one of the interviewees had cooked the Thanksgiving Day.
Ojo!. I have nothing against the alternative characters, but quite the opposite: a profound respect. Everyone is entitled to be, think and act as he pleases, provided they not interfere with the rights of others. What if I say is that the evidence did not seem to fit, to convey to the viewer who does not know the city, an image of San Francisco today. Come on, you can get a freak to another, from time to time, but that they are almost all can have a certain charm, but it distorts reality.
do not know why, well, I suppose that sensationalism demand in many of these reports, " always end up resorting to hackneyed themes, such as prostitutes and homosexuals.
For the author of the chapter of yesterday, it seems that there was only the Golden Gate and the famous and cool, Victorian houses. Soon we learned, the great atmosphere day and beautiful buildings in China Town, the uniqueness and essence of the business district of the particular area of \u200b\u200bEddy Street, on the outskirts of the town hall and surrounding streets in Civic Center, full of pleasant ; stores without fanfare, the cozy area of \u200b\u200bFisherman s Wharf, with its shops, the crowded and crazy seal-... And the disturbing and beautiful island of Alcatraz, the liquidated with a pair of air planes.
I fear that the quality of these spaces, much depends on the author who makes them and that is why , which are of varying nature. Although almost always, in my humble opinion, would qualify with a score less than five on a scale of zero to ten. I remember just how disappointed I felt, when I saw that of Bangkok. With the incredible attractions that this city! and the author, can not think of anything else, to devote ten minutes to interview the English director of Coca Cola in Asia and the display of luxury and extraordinary home (though somewhat insulting to the Thai middle).
I also remember the day that the Manila chapter, spent twenty minutes to talk about prostitution. Surely that would not, if they made a space about Madrid or Barcelona, \u200b\u200bbut who wander for example, by the Ramblas at night, thought that the topic is of considerable interest and importance today And what would seem to us, if an international TV did a story on San Sebastian and spent half the time to speak, on the ETA attacks?. Of course!: We would put the fuss
understand that television should be lighter and , at that time of night, we're not, to tell us stories deep. But one thing is light and other, very different, inaccuracies, intentional manipulation and sensationalism.
