I’m back, yes in Buenos Aires
And it’s a very weird feeling too – it only hit me the other day, on the street in the city I saw a Buenos Aires billboard and I realized this is it – the moment – that I spent 6 months waiting and hoping for – its here and its now! I’ve had little time to let that or any thoughts sink in fo
r the last few months. Had a great send off – which I thank most dearly to the friends that were able to attend at the last minute. It was such an amazing night and I really wish I could’ve taken everyone with me. And since then have been full pace ahead – and dealing with the common reaction to locales when I say I am living here, which is followed by a why and then the full interrogation as for them it seems so hard to believe. Then they ask how long I’m staying for – my standard response it depends on the day, as not all days are created equal, and I suffer on some more than others. But then trying to get the office organized, find a flat and sort everything out is neither fun, nor easy. But I keep following up with most used phrase (just to manage my own expectations and stop myself from going mad) ‘little by little’, am getting there slowly but surely. At the end of the day, my dream of going to a few polo games as well as
the final was realized, and La Dolfina won (yippee) – it truly was a great day. I also had fun new years, in my favorite bar, under the stars at Belushi, dancing the night away – which I hope will mean this is going to be a super year, and I can make all my other dreams, hopes and aspirations come true too. And I wish the same success to everyone else who I am lucky enough to have in my life – HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! ;-*
