Watched US men lose in beach volleyball today. Yeah, the crowd was definitely against us. I think the only team that gets boo-ed more than the US is Argentina; Brazil and Argentina are not the best of friends. Actually, the US women´s soccer team ... Read more >

I did not know this place could be so windy! It seriously makes me feel like it is going to knoch me over! And the dirt flies all over. The power of it is beautiful, though. It makes the trees bend in graceful arches. :) Today I visited the statue ... Read more >

Yesterday after an early human rights class (by the way, I didn´t learn anything in that class. this day, we talked about the salary of Argentina teachers.), we went into Buenos Aires. Our first stop was a city law firm. All I can say about that is ... Read more >

Today we finished our classes with Professor Rita Giacalone. She is a petite and sharp woman from Venezuela ; cute and precise. She would say things like ¨Calm down. You can go and eat. Just don´t talk.¨ And she said it in accented ... Read more >

Class was amazing! I don´t know the full background of this professor, but he has a Columbia Law e-mail addy and he said he lived in New Yor for about 25 years (but is from here). He is every engaging. Also, he is hooking me up with an observatory ... Read more >
