Argentina Hasta Ahora

I've been in Argentina for a month. So far I've slept in seven beds in four different provinces. Of my time here I've only spent a week in Jujuy (sorry mom and dad). My summers in Argentina are usually slow with few activities since I've lost touch with most of my friends and the ones that I do have now live in other provinces. This summer has been completely different. I've been experiencing more fatigue than what I usually do during school (without the stress of course) due to the constant moving around and traveling. For a while I was only sleeping five hours a night in Salta because I had so many people to see and so many things to do. If the rest of my summer is like this then I will be quite content. The weather has also been great. I've only had to wear my winter jacket for a week in the month that I've been here because it's been getting up to the 60s. I really do hate Indiana winters a lot... Argentine isn't some sort of magical place where it's always fun and warm but right now it feels very fun and extremely warm. I don't always know where I belong, but one thing that I do know is that I always feel misearable when I leave Argentina and that those feelings are real.

I'm in the process of planning trips to Bolivia (Santa Cruz) and Cafayate (wine vineyards). For what it's worth, I've (re)discovered Argentine reggae.
