Said about Nim (programming language) as an alternative
Based off of Python, similar modules system, and indention based. Probably the best alternative!
Syntax is same but speed is greater than Python. Only draw back is, that Nim has a minimal support for object oriented programming. Module system is horrible. Compiler wants us to write all the code in single file. If you are using file A and it is importing something from file B. But this file B is also importng something from file A, that means mutual imports. In that case, you can't compile.

As readable and powerful as Python but as fast as C, with no reliance on a VM. The language is a beautiful beast.
