Wait, actually, I could live here


I'm back in querido Buenos Aires! It's a very weird feeling to be living in a new neighborhood (Palermo now), and to be living in a hostel. Turns out, Im in the best hostel in the best location. So, Im thinking I can stay here forever. After bunking it up for 2 weeks, I got my own hostel room, and put of stick of dynamite in my suitcase and here i am, home sweet home. There is lots to tell about my Iguazu adventures. Right now, Im uploading some pics, getting organized. But, my bus experience.... no whiskey, no blankets, no cama. We had to "change buses" in Posadas, then I finally got my blanket and cama, but no whiskey. Oh the humanity. Arriving in the Retiro bus station, I got so giddy with excitement. I felt like I was home. While I was sweating and getting stuffed like a sardine in the subway, I wanted to scream with joy. Man, i love this place. Last night, we went to my fave Bar Roberto. It was great as usual.

Bar 12 de Octubre


This might be one of the top 3 fave places in all of Buenos Aires that I've been to. I'm not sure what the other 2 are yet. We were looking for some musico en vivo, and hit the jackpot. This tiny little bar is so intimate, and so old and full of character. There is a teeny little spot for a guitar player and my querido Roberto who sang some tango songs. But really, he was a story teller. I absolutely LOVED it. I was also able to understand a lot of the lyrics, which made it so much more awesome! I'm not sure his name is Roberto, but it might be. It is for now. If there was ever a place that made me stay in Buenos Aires forever, this could be it.
Oops, did I type that out loud?
