OK, so you guys already know that we’ve been in Panama for a week now. However, I have one quick order of business to clean up in Buenos Aires. First course, cereal, yogurt, fruit and juice. We had brunch for four hours, y’all! It was crazy. It was long enough to eat, get full, become …

You guys! We made it to Panama safe and sound. But I have to say… getting here was the most fabulous part. An eight hour flight is not so bad when you have this much leg room. (Yes, I’m reading Jet-Set Magazine. So what, who cares?) So, recently I’ve become quite the travel agent, and …

Get right outta town! Indeed that’s what we’re about to do. With one final empanada we close the oven door on a very interesting and eventful 2 months in Buenos Aires. To recap, we’ve had some excellent estadounidense visitors: Photo courtesy of Lia Andrews We learned the word “estadounidense” among other essential but very difficult-to-pronounce …

It’s our last week in Buenos Aires. Our ride to the airport arrives at our apartment on Saturday at 5 am. I predict a bleary morning that will distract us from the sadness of leaving so we can focus on the excitement of continuing on to our next adventure. This week, we’ve been revisiting some …

Even though we’ve been in Buenos Aires for almost 2 months (how is that possible?), we are still finding our way into some touristical activities. This week, we got to see the fabulous Teatro Colón. Unfortunately we’re here during the off-season, so there’s no going to see a show right now. But thanks to our …

This past week has been a fun one. It’s been slightly cooler here (with highs only in the low 90′s), so we’ve been walking all around this town! We hit up the Chinese New Year celebration in El Barrio Chino. Chinatown in BA is only about 4 square blocks, but it’s packed with great restaurants …

Doorbell rings. “Aren’t you gonna get that?” he says, upstairs. Scrunchy face. “We don’t know anyone here.” Pause. Again, doorbell rings. I answer the intercom, “Hola?” “Hola… bla bla bla algo en español que no entiendo…” “No sé.” I quickly hang up the receiver. “What did he say?” “Something in Spanish I didn’t understand, so …

No, really. With the exception of a few days early in December, it’s been hot, sunny and slightly breezy for the duration of our trip. Pretty much perfect, if you ask me. Our favorite brunch spot, Oui, Oui Part of this new lifestyle of ours is all about always having an open door. Be it …

Helloooooooooo! Our apologies for laying low this week. But I promise we’ve been busy! Schwartzes 1.0 Sadly, we said goodbye to Erik’s parents. They came to visit us for about two weeks during the holidays and we had a blast. Here they are in one of our favorite spots, and Irish pub that serves Indian …

During our first week in Buenos Aires, I was scouring the interwebs for fun places to eat, when I came across Dan from Casa Saltshaker in the Chowhound forums. Another commenter mentioned that he really liked Dan’s blog, so I moseyed on over to his site and found not only a fun blog, but that …
