Mi departamento

Hola,

1 week in and all is well. I was thrilled the other night to be able to understand a sit com on TV - it helped that it was a modern day version of an episode of Married With Children set in Argentina. I've also upped my steak count to three. Attached is a picture of number two - a great bife de lomo at my favorite non-touristy argentine steakhouse - El Trapiche.

Tonight, I'm heading out for some Buenos Aires sushi with my friend Ramiro, whom you might remember from a couple of entries of my blog last year. Sushi in Buenos Aires is quite good, but there's definitely less variety of fish (i.e. mainly salmon and tuna) and more variety in accoutrements (i.e. cream cheese and/or mayonaise in some rolls.. I stay away from those).

Anyway, here's some pictures of my apartment. In the middle of my view is, in my opinion, the ugliest building in Buenos Aires. To me, it looks like a soviet-syle apartment block, but, you be the judge!

felice navidades,

Blair
