random facts of arg & first week

---

so ive been in my new house for a week now. in argentina for almost two. im starting to understand the language better! which probably is mildly essential seeing as i will be spending a year here. some random differences ive noticed here: you must wear some kind of shoes in the house all of the time. they drink a type of herbal tea called mate (say MAHH TAYY not mate) all of the time! i love it =). OH they do not slow down while turning when they are driving here! haha. i must admit it has scared me a bit. they have supurb meat!! um, there are no llamas where i live. theyre all up north. =(. they dont eat much for breakfast, basically drink coffee or tea. they eat lunch at about 2. tea time at about 5. dinner at about 10. the colleges are free if you go to a public one! thats definatly different!

ill keep everyone updated on new things, but thats all i can think of right now. but im having a wonderful time. today i had my first actual asado and it was wonderful! im thinking ill make the grill with daddy when i get home!! well i still havnt figgured out how to put pictures on here, but once i do i will surely put some on here!

well i hope that you are all doing well!! love you all!!!

besos, chau
rachh
