Hello. Sorry for the lack of updates. Been pretty busy from long eventful 18 hour days. Here's a lengthy update of my weekend in Buenos Aires, Argentina! We left thursday afternoon using LAN airlines. It was a 2 hour trip east of Santiago chile. After arriving, we had a filling meal at Santa Fe Cafe, which is open for 24 hrs!!! Something we don't have at Santiago Chile. So here it is, a 4 day recap..yee..

Lunch/Dinner at the oldest cafe in Argentina, Cafe Tortoni, which began in 1858.
Steak Meal #4 + Red Wine = LEGITI <3 RED WINE!!!!!
At Buenos Aires, I noticed a couple of things. 1) the people here are really nice, they don't stare at you and are more tolerable of tourists. 2) When ordering at any restaurant, they do not like to take notes of your order, they do it straight from memory. 3) The people actually want to have a conversation if they know you're not a local. It's pretty nice. 4) The spanish interaction is much easier as I feel that it is slower when they speak, making it understandable. 5) Argentinians are very prideful, in a good way. They do have the best steak that I have eaten. They are known for their bife de chorizo..yee...
