spring break sentiments

I am having trouble coming up with words to describe my recent trip to Buenos Aires for Spring Break. You know how sometimes when something is that amazing, you grapple with the right phrases because it feels like you can never truly do it justice? Buenos Aires might just be too wonderful for me to articulate. It was a truly beautiful experience. (And it was fully paid for by NYU! Too good.)














I loved learning about Argentine history, listening to Spanish on the street, zooming around in cabs and trying to speak with their friendly drivers, watching a tango show, consuming lots of steak, empanadas, and wine, exploring the different barrios (Palermo, La Boca, and Recoleta mostly), going out dancing, and most of all, taking in Argentina's summer weather and sunshine... ahh, it was just the best.
