I’ve been making To Do Lists since College. They’re a great way to organize your thoughts when you’re overwhelmed. Before I left for Buenos Aires I created the To Do List Page to keep a record of everything I wanted to get done over the course of the year. I update it continuously. This morning I also […]

Tango, Salsa, Milonga & Club 69

Club 69 @ Niceto Club in Palermo, Buenos Aires

The night started out classy, romantic and educational and it ended with a fantasy induced sex-fest of a party (yet, still highly educational). Feeling pretty confident after our semi-successful polo debut we decided to give dance lessons a try last night. After very little research my roommate mentioned La Viruta for Tango, Milunga and Salsa classes. […]

Planning a Friend’s Visit to Buenos Aires

Planning a Friend's Visit to Buenos Aires, Argentina

On Thursday night one of my best friends from college, Nick Greco, will be flying into Buenos Aires to visit for 2 weeks.

Late Nights & Nice Tights

Party in San Telmo, Buenos Aires

This weekend I got to check out a few new spots around Buenos Aires and went to my first Argentine House Party in San Telmo (pictured above). Thursday, I went to this new bar called DUIDUI in Palermo Hollywood… which was a great time (despite it’s uncomfortable name). It was cool because there was no sign outside and […]

New Cell Phone in Buenos Aires

Claro Cell Phone in Buenos Aires, Argentina

The truth is I looked everywhere for a phone like Zack’s dad uses in this clip but unfortunately, they don’t carry them here in Argentina. Regardless, enjoy the clip and remember there is nothing more important than family, not even a cell phone. Now, more serious cell phone talk. Everyone knows how annoying it is […]

Saying Goodbye

The Golden Nugget

Moving is tough. Saying goodbye to your friends and family is even tougher. I’ve done it a lot over the last few weeks. I think the key to it all is to have a plan for the future. Something to look forward to. A return date is always great because then you have something concrete […]
