I have lived in Buenos Aires for a little over a week now and have enjoyed every moment. From finding my way around, trying different food, going to multiple markets, singing at the futbol game and listening to drum beats, I have inherit from my experience a like for Buenos Aires. The natives are friendly, but they tend to stare at me because I am darker than all Argentine natives. So, I can see eyes staring at me wherever I go.
Otherwise, I welcome this city in my heart as its tall buildings, taxi cabs, and crowded streets and "subtes" (subways) remind me of New York with a Sudamerica twist. Below is one video clip from Fuerta Bruza and the other is my first tango dance lesson. Since my moments here, I have picked up some norms about Buenos Aires.
You know when you are Buenos Aires when:
1. There is always at least one person performing or asking for money in the subte.
2. Breakfast includes a tostada or just tea.
3. Dinner doesn't began until between 8pm- 10:30pm.
4. There is street tango.
5. You see a march every Thursday at the "Plaza de Mayo".
6. Plenty of street markets to choose from that extend toward blocks.
7. You cannot withdrawl any peso smaller than $100.
As for travel, I have visited Tigre and La Boca and I look forward to visiting Cataratas del Iguazu (Iguazu Falls) this weekend and Cordoba next weekend.
