Most people we meet here think we look around 24. Nothing new, considering just last week one of the ladies at my bank told my mom she thought I was 18. 18!!!
While living here in BA attempting to master the porteno lifestyle, I think we're going to have to return to the mindset of our early 20s. Por que, you may ask? Well in short, we are surrounded by energetic and lovely early-20-somethings, who remind me very much of Amy and Caitlin circa 2003. Not that we are not energetic late-20-somethings, because as you all know, we certainly love a good night out, but let's just say it's been a while since we have thought, "Maybe we should go on a pub crawl" on a Thursday night. It's a school night for goodness sake!
Yes, I know we need to do what we want to do - and since you know us, you know we will - but clearly it's quite fantastic to live it up in a new city and do as the Romans do. So despite my rantings to Caitlin last week about how we're a little past this stage, I think I can ditch that attitude and give it another go this one last block of time.
Last night, in the spirit of our new attitudes, we had a very late night that even took us to a salsa club where we were the only Estadounidenses (i.e. United Statesians). The trick is to take off your watch and go with it.
Oh - and you would have been proud of the fact that we spoke pretty much only Espanol at the bar beforehand. It was brilliant!
Nice...you're stating to use Spanglish! Felicidades!
