DAY 194 - SI, GRACIAS AND QUE?

"Si, si, bueno, bueno". I am currently dealing with the lingering side effects of "SouthAmericanism".

I am now that weirdo sipping from my drug-paraphernalia looking mate, eating squished up peanut butter bars  of mantecol and going around trying to get all my friends to enjoy the wondrous pleasures of my hearts desires "FERNET" only to be constantly looking at faces of disgust and regret as they hesitantly sip from my cup and give it back to me as fast as they humanly can! I mean I am not so sad that I have to drink Fernet all to myself but I am also the dork that accidentally gets caught throwing out a "que?' when I mishear something or "si" when I am in agreeance. I am an Argentine reject misunderstood in NZ.

mas pan por favor

DAY 193 - WE ARE ONLY ONE GIANT OCEAN APART! 14 HOUR FLIGHT!

Its a little strange being back and being asked
"How was your trip, what did you do over there?"
Hmmm how was one of the greatest YEARS of my life, how can I condense it down into one repeatable little sentence or catch phrase?! Ummm it was epic... I am either one way or the other, when people ask me I don't know where to start, so I quickly change the subject cheekily or chuck out an "awesome".
But then we will be talking about something totally non related and it will spark a memory and you can't get me to shut up about Argentina - I will start harping on about this, that and the other Molfino!

DAY 192 - FLICK IT ABOUT

Damn it Janet, blogger won't let me post images! So let me give you a brief run down of the events in mind... In NZ news there was a horse, a rifle, some kids dress up costumes and a house at the beach.

EXHIBIT A:

And in Argentine reflections I was going to talk about hair flicking sexualised woman with long long LONG dark locks! No crew cuts, stylish bobs or Rachel from friends short hair do's. No its hair, here everywhere!

EXHIBIT B:

But instead you have to settle for a recap of my prior blogs - in other words spend this time to reflect on the 191 days worth of blogs and wait in anticipation for tomorrow's blog on horses, hair and lunatics!

Te extraño Argentina but this fresh salt water air is pretty damn good! And heres the pics to prove it!
