Finally getting settled

It's been about five days now and we're finally getting settled. We decided on an apartment yesterday and just moved in a couple hours ago. Even though the street it's on isn't the prettiest in Buenos Aires it's in a good location along the border of two cool neighborhoods - the Microcentro (downtown) and San Telmo (an old neighborhood that's currently being renovated). I'll post more about these neighborhoods later.

We chose this apartment of the dozen we looked at, because castellano is definitely the language of the house. We still haven’t met everyone, but there are two Brazilian girls, a French girl, a French guy, a British guy, and a Argentinian girl. So pretty much to common language will have to be Spanish since that’s what everyone is here to learn.


This is the street we live on and our apartment from the outside. We're on the second floor. Click on it for a bigger version.
