Hi!We went to the market in Plaza Serrano today. Around the Plaza are lots of bars, but many act as shops on Saturdays! I didn't actually buy anything today, but it was fun looking! As not all of the bars act as shops it was still possible to have lunch, Polly and I went to Bar Abierto. In the evening myself, Rachel, Polly and Jen went to Nica Parrilla for dinner then went back to the hostel for drinks. However, the urge to go out on a Saturday night proved t...

Hi!Rachel and I met Jen after uni today and we went to the Obelisco and Plaza de Mayo. We saw the government house, Casa Rosado, which is a bright pink builiding! Can you imagine 10 Downing Street ever being painted pink?! Despite it being Friday we had quite a chilled, but still late night! We just went for a meal and came back to the hostel and chatted to people until the small hours! Lucy.x

After the meal Bar Unico was calling us again before going to Club 69. The club was packed and at about 4am there...

Hi!Rachel and I started learning Spanish at the University of Buenos Aires today. Unfortunately our class is 1-4pm, which makes site seeing that bit more difficult, but not impossible! After uni we had a look around the area, which is Barrio Norte and Once. It's a busy traditional area with a good local feel to it! We went to Carlos Gardel's museum and Mercado de Abasto. The Abasto is a beautiful building, which is now a shopping mall and a childrens'...

Hi!Had a long lie in today to recover from flight so did nothing exciting in the morning! However, Emma arrived today (one of the other Travellers Volunteers) so we went for lunch together. Eating out is so cheap here and the food is very yummy...dangerous for my waistline! Had a wander round my barrio, Palermo, which is v nice! In the evening Rachel, Jen and I went to a Tango class! We had a good laugh - not sure what our Tango dancing skills are like though! Af...
