Carneval weekend #2. GOD i love february!!! :D




This weekend was the second carneval-weekend which also means longweekend. again, thank you Christina! :) Not that theres a big difference between weekdays and weekends here in Argentina :) everyday is a fiesta! <3

So i started the weekend of with a houseparty at our friends that are leaving for Australia nest week. lots of fun people, live music and dancing until the small hours of the night. :)
After fiesta, we siesta! si claro! :) so i spent saturday by the pool listening to new episodes of RADIORESEPSJONEN!! :)
on sunday i went on a 7,5 hours (!!) bikeride around Buenos Aires and out to the province.. it was seriously amazing! i thought i had seen most of this city but i was wrong. felt like i was biking through five different countries. it was such an adventure! except im sunburned and my butt hurts.... :)
And then monday came, which also means LA BOMBA DEL TIEMPO! :D it was DA BOMB! (get it? la bomba...da bomb...no..? ;) ok, so this is Buenos Aires answer to Frank Znort, only a million times bigger and a million times more awesome! (Sorry Frank..) its a big band of drumplayers improvising infront of a raging crowd. it was AAAMMAAAZING!! and its every monday! hurrayy!! :)
well enough chit chat, lets see some pictures! :)

The average person laughs 15 times a day... we are definitely not average :D

Holaaaa! :D
i am now going on my third week in muy buenos aires and im just falling more and more i love with this city! this past week has been busy with spanish grammar, latin american literature, late nights, two goodbye parties (for the same person might i add ;) asado, jummy food, tango and amazing people!

My spanish is improving by the day, but its intense! its hard making your brain work enough to learn spanish grammar in a 40 degree sauna! :P but our professors are incredible and my classmates are great, so we are on our way! Being able to communicate really makes life so much easier! :D

its been hot hot hot this week, so the pool and aircondition has been amazing companions.
So has my little family here! we have had such an amazing week with lots of craziness! my good friend vivi left yesterday so we tried to make the best out of our last week together. she was supposed to leave last friday, but with repeated guilt-trips, wine and many smiles she decided to stay a few more days. yay!! :D

Well... a picture says more than a thousand words... enjoy! :D
