Around 1:40pm we arrived to Buenos Aires City. The tour ended in the city. The bus would stop in 2 places. At the French Embassy in Recoleta. This stop was made for the people who wanted to visit the fair and enjoy a nice lunch there. My mom and I were still full from our delicious dinner from …

HAHAHAHA it was very busy in the airport. The line to check in was long. After going through security it …

I had the privilege of going to the fabulous city of Buenos Aires this summer.  This had been both a dream spot for both me and my dear friend Noah.  We had narrowed it down to three destinations: Germany, Norway and Argentina.  Having recently gone to Spain, we thought maybe it woul…

25 hours after departing KL (and 1-hour stop overs in Joburg and Cape Town) MH201 finally landed at Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini in Buenos Aires at 216PM, February 13, 2008. The sky was a perfect blue and the sun was all out. The sweltering heat embraced me as soon as I exited the airport. The e…

Steve and I keep finding ourselves back in Buenos Aires. It’s been the hub for all the mini trips we have made in this region, and by now I know the two airports here as well as I know O’Hare and Midway at home. We are back today for one last time, on an overnight before heading to the other si…

Yesterday we took advantage of what time we had left at Iguazu and went back to the national park. It was well worth the second visit as there were more trails there to explore and sights to see. This time we took the Gran Aventura tour, which involved a 4X4 guided tour through the rainforest,…

Group:  Derek, Divya, Vicky In 1983, Argentina returned to a democracy after eight years of a military dictatorship.  The free and fair elections that took place at the end of Raul Ricardo Alfonsin’s presidency, in 1989, to the outset of Carlos Menem’s presidency marked the begi…

My hostel offered a package deal to the futbol game! I, of course, thought it was a deal, until discovering that tickets cost 15 pesos! I willingly paid 120 pesos to go with the group, which included transportation and a great chorizo snack as well as avid Argentinian futbol fanatic guides:) PRICEL…

I know it has been weeks since I have posted anything on here... But I will try to catch everyone up on my life in BsAs.My weeks have quickly filled up as I am now fully employed. When I say "fully" I mean I teach about 20 hours a week, which doesn't sound like much, but trust me-- it adds up quic…

Soccer deserves its own entry in this blog.  I was in search for a soccer team to adopt in South America.  These decisions cannot be taken lightly.  They involve careful consideration of stadiums, traditions, uniform colors, supporters, riots, and some measure of on-field performance…

Tomorrow we are leaving for a new adventure, one that I am honestly very excited about. We are leaving for Florianopolis Brazil which from what I have gathered so far is a much slower-paced city in Southern Brazil. It is an island off the southern coast of Brazil, and is the capital of Santa Cateri…

ANDREI - I espouse The Beautiful Game.  So much better than the brand of ¨football¨they play in the States - just ask anyone outside the country.  We´re all nuts for the World Cup.  What´s so good about it?  The passion? The fair play?  The athletisism? Not today. …

  Although I went to bed late, or early from the next day, I asked for a wake up call at 7:30am in order to go to the gym.   This was our last day in Buenos Aires. We were leaving the country at 4pm in order to fly to Santa Cruz. Happily it was our free day too. Now it was the opportun…
