Buenas Buenas Aires!!
Hola Todos!!! I have finally arrived in Buenos Aires!!! I surrived over 24hrs of plane riding and airport layovers. barely. Needless to say, it was a long trip to get here, but worth it. After long line at immigration, and a long bus ride, i made it to my hostel in the center of Buenos Aires, V & S Hostel Club. I´m in a 7 bed "dormitorio" (dorm style room, bunk beds and all). The hostel is adorable, and everyone is very friendly. I couldn´t be more centrally located seriously. After dropping off my junk, all i wanted to do was go to bed. but as it was 1pm, i thought it wise to keep myself awake a bit longer so as to adjust to the time zone stuff. I went and picked up some essentials, shampoo, conditioner, water as i could only carry 3 oz of those or less with me on the plane. But as luck would have it, the first store i actually went it to, just a few blocks from my hostel.... ZARA.... yay! i know i´m safe and sound and in a good place if there is a Zara in walking distance from my hostel! I grabbed a sandwich, and wandered some more and was able to keep my self alive until 9pm ( which is actually when Buenos Aires is considering where to go for dinner....they´re all night owls, the whole country). I don´t know what i was picturing BA to be like when i came here... maybe old country like Prague, or artsy like Barcelona...but BA is def a city unlike any other. Very old, Very loud, Very crazy, and Very beautiful. I haven´t done much exploring yet, but my agenda is very full. This is one very large place with lots of history it be discovered. Hasta Pronto!!! (i apologize for any spelling errors, spell check is not working :) )

Hi Cassidy! Glad you made it there safely. I'm so jealous there's a Zara so closeby! All you need is a Willy's around the corner :) (that was the name of that candy store in Spain, my memory is terrible...)
Enjoy Argentina and learn Argentine Tango for me :)

Hola Cass! Me da gusto saber que llegastes sanita y coleando (translation: glad you made it in one piece!) I'm sure you'll buy a separate suitcase to fill with new Zara clothing -- so, jealous. Keep safe and post pics soon!
Buena suerte y disfruta!
