Argentina Highlights
Today is a bittersweet day as we say Chau to our family, friends and life in Argentina. We are especially grateful for the shared times with Pat, Hector, Felipe, Meli, Daniela, Akabi, Charo, Ignacio and LuisMa during these five years of living in Argentina.
Living in Argentina also granted us the opportunity to expand our understanding of the people, culture, and history in this land of tango, Che, gauchos, Malbec wine, vast pampas of grain and cattle, medialunas, mate with family and friends, alfajores, fresh pastas, pizzas, asados (barbecues), sobremesas (extended after dinner conversations), the primacy of family, welcoming people, and spectacular parks and nature reserves.
