Hola!!! I’m here I’m in Argentina at Rominas' house hanging out with her cat “Yoel” while she is working! So, getting here was so much easier than my last flights everything pretty much went without problem! Just before we were about to land the Pilot announces that the temperature in Argentina is 3 degrees! Meanwhile I’ve got my thongs on! I was freezing when as soon as I walked out of the airport I’m surprised I didn’t get frostbite! Getting myself to Rominas’ house wasn’t too bad but it was a little bit daunting in parts. My flight arriv [View Full Entry]

Hola Everyone!!!! So im 2 weeks into my time here in Costa Rica and things are great! My family is big and live in a little house 7 people plus me in a 3 bedroom house!!! Apparently it is normal here though because it’s expensive to live here so the families all live together. My house is nice though and always perfectly clean and is about a 5min walk to the beach so that is really nice and all of the bars are just as close. I’ve really been enjoying the warm weather and hanging out at he beach. My first [View Full Entry]
