A little more substantial update
Last weekend was Carnaval so we had Monday and Tuesday off. It was an awesome weekend. My friends and I explored different barrios (neighborhoods) during the day and went out at night. The weather is incredible, about 80 degrees and sunny during the day. So we’ve had beautiful long days and really fun, long nights.
I started classes on Wednesday and they are going well so far! We have really long days because the classes are a few hours long each and we have to commute between two buildings. I like the classes so far and the workload isn’t too bad.
I love my homestay still! My homestay sister María Jose (Majo) is in the north of Argentina visiting family until Monday. I’m excited for her to get back because she left just a few days after I got here. My homestay mom, María Julia, is great and cooks me yummy food and is very hospitable. I truly feel at home here and they have made me very comfortable.
