The Countdown Begins!

Steve and I will be leaving for Argentina in less than 3 weeks!!!! I can't believe it is almost here! I'll be finishing up the school year next week, and then it's off to Argentina for 2 months!

We've rented an apartment in the Palermo Viejo neighborhood of Buenos Aires. The neighborhood is supposed to be very "up-and-coming" with lots of good restaurants, bars and shopping. We'll be using Buenos Aires as our base, and traveling from there.

Steve's going to be working from there, and I am hoping to do some volunteering. We are also planning to get some Spanish tutoring, just to keep up with our Spanish and improve!

We've been doing a lot of research and I am getting so excited to go. Argentina seems like such an amazing country with so much to do! It's a huge country, so I'm sure we won't get to see everything we want to, but we are going to try! '

We leave on the 25th of June and get back the 22nd of August. We'll try to update this blog often so you can all be up do date on everything we've done and seen! Be sure to keep us up to date about the happenings at home as well!
