Two weeks. Gone just like that and yet it feels like I've been in Argentina for a really long time. This past week has been amazing to say the least with my internship starting and spending a weekend in the country (more on that later) to bonding with roomies and people in the house. There have been 4 new people that have arrived and they are from all over the world and U.S. and we have a grand time sitting around talking, shopping or making dinner together.
My internship= wonderful. I love the high schoolers! They are so sweet, fun and eager to learn english. I had my first conversation class with my kids this past thursday and they were such a delight. We even went over 30 mins but neither of us noticed because we were just having so much fun getting to know each other and joking around. Teaching English is the best! :)
This past weekend Candida, our new friend Ashley and I took a bus ride to Mendoza and spent a weekend in the country enjoying the greenery. Random fact: We played bingo on the bus and I won a bottle of wine! Too bad I don't drink it but at least the house gets to enjoy some!
Friday we walked around the park and hung out with some people in the hostel and then went horseback riding. It was beautiful weather, my horse Danino was the cutest, we got to hang out with these fun girls from Norway and to top it off Candida found her true love ;)
That night we had some yummy Asada at the hostel followed by a reggaeton dance party. Then the next day we went paragliding- in the Andes. It was quite the thrill just running off the mountain and soaring into the clear blue sky.
Trip of a lifetime- I think so :)
