I have lost track of time. I remember that Friday night was spent packing last minute (perhaps, adding unnecessary items into my luggage) and Saturday I drove down to LAX. I flew into Dallas and then two and half hours later, I was on the LONG 11-hour flight to Buenos Aires.
Notes about this trip: 1) The Pasajero sitting next to me was, thankfully, very kind and normal sized, 2) The drive into the city was not too long, around 35 minutes, and the driver was also very kind and, much to my benefit, eager to talk about the city, 3) The apartment is gorgeous! I am living in a flat with two other girls. If I were to try to describe it, I would have to say that it is Anthropology meets Spanish Villa. The doors are tall, wooden and filled with glass. There is an OUTSIDE hallway to get to the other rooms and the kitchen.
When I got to the apartment, I crashed for about 2 hours. I hadn't slept since Friday night; I read Shutter Island from start to finish, then watched the movie (with Leo Dicaprio) on the plane - Shutter Island overload. For those of you who haven't read it: it is a PAGE-TURNER and the plot twist will blow your mind...unless, you see it coming.
As of right now, my roommates are still both asleep (it's 12:38 AM here)! I'm supposed to meet someone at 3:00 a few blocks away, and can't wait to explore a little. I promise there will be pictures posted soon!
XOXO,
Sam
