Everyone always asks me; “so how did you settle on Buenos Aires?” And my semi-serious response is always… “Omens!” Seriously though, since I started thinking about the trip to Argentina I’ve seen signs everywhere that seemed to point me to Argentina and Buenos Aires (BA). As weird as it may be, almost everyday since mid-July I’ve seen some small random sign that I take as reconfirming my idea. So finally, I just decided to go with it.
The first thing that sparked my interest in Buenos Aires was a random article about 3 months ago (before the trip was even a thought) that ranked Buenos Aires as one of the best big cities to live in the world. The very next day my neighbor and I got into a conversation about traveling and she told me she taught English in Argentina for a year and absolutely loved it. Maybe I’ve been searching for these ‘omens’ since then, but it’s fun to think about.
Here’s a good example: I am not a big tennis fan but I was watching the U.S. Open yesterday with the fam and who happens to win it all? A young gun from Argentina named Juan Martín del Potro… weird huh!
