Sobre Carne, Asado y Helado, termino la clase en espanol, disfruta Cordoba y Buenos Aires y el dia de las mujeres,

The last few weeks have been about completing my Spanish course, visiting Cordoba and seriously starting to enjoy the city of Buenos Aires.

La clase de español termino hace mas de una semana. El proyecto final fue sobre la dictatura militar en argentina entre 1976-1983…el parte de me, especialmente fue sobre la Guerra sucia (the dirty war). La Guerra es una parte de la historia muy negra durante de la dictadura militar. Consecuencias general de la guerra es de aproximadamente 13 000 personas fueron "desaparición forzada," y 30 000 persones fueron asesinadas durante el período.

Straight after finishing the Spanish course, we head off to Cordoba to spend time with a family of a friend of mine over the weekend. In dept understanding of “La crisis 2001-2003 was gained through speaking (in Spanish) with the father of the family, a chilled asado and pileta fiesta (bbq & pool party) was enjoyed and a new friendship with the Argentinean way of enjoying a summer Saturday was formed! The night was about party and the Sunday about visiting mountains and swimming in a lagugune. All in all, the weekend was fantastic and memorable. Not necessarily for having the opportunity to experience yet another city in Argentina, but really because of the opportunity to live, act and be Argentinean for a few days and to experience absolutely fantastic nature. Thanks Marcello + Family for enabling that experience!

Coming back to Buenos Aires have been about regaining energy, enjoying nice company, reflecting about the future and eating excellent food. The food culture in Argentina is specially designed for me! I love meat, bbq and ice-cream, these components combined are too good to be true…! Yesterday we experienced the celebration of the international women’s day here in Buenos Aires, the city really put in efforts in recognizing the significance of the day, which I believe is very encouraging. I am also asking myself the question what the role is of days like the one yesterday…

As I am writing this post I am realizing that the last few weeks and days haven’t been so much about reflecting, but just experience…indeed an interesting realization!

Going forward I am planning a trip up north in South America. I shall look forward to the planning and execution of that trip!
