Here I am! In Buenos Aires! Writing from a fancy apartment in Recoleta where I am staying with a friend.
The city is huge, and there is way too much to do, but I am having a blast and trying to split my time between touristy and non touristy activities.
Here are some of the things I have done:
Touristy
Visited important/pretty places like Teatro Colon and La Casa Rosada.
Taken a doubledecker tour bus around the city, using the provided microphones to learn a little history.
Been to Bellas Artes museum, the Eva Peron museum, a boat museum, a holocaust museum, and one more whose name I can never remember where there was an exhibit on HARRY POTTER.
Went to a tango show outside at the obelisk and a drum concert.
Less touristy
Ate the best hot pastrami sandwich of my life.
(FINALLY) went thrift store shopping (more on that later)
Used-book shopping.
Eating choripan. (sausage and fried egg sandwiches sold on the street).
Went walking around searching for Synagogues.
Shabat services on Friday night.
I hope everyone is keeping warm back in the states, dont feel too jealous of me, someimes it is 97 with humidity on top which in Buenos Aires is really pretty disgusting. Although for the most part the weather has been lovely for me.
Love and snuggles and pictures because I have no control over the format of these posts right now...
