Shaken

Chile has experienced a series of earthquakes in the past day or so. This morning I woke up as a level 4 quake shook Santiago. That is the most significant earthquake that I have experienced. During my first months in Mexico back in 1999 there was a severe earthquake in Oaxaca. I was studying at the language school and didn't feel anything. In Santiago we feel tremors regularly.

Yesterday a 6.2 quake created significant damage and left 10 people missing in southern Chile.
