Anibal is coming to Cambridge next week! he said he was meeting with a bunch of people, and also holding some general info sessions about spring semester study abroad. check it out! (if well, its relevant to you:-)
Last night I went out with Peter from Mendoza who was passing through town. In Barrio Brasil we stopped in a nondescript bar for sandwiches, and then an adorable little cafe called Peperones afterwards. Wandering past mostly shuttered clubs in Barrip Bellavista, the strains of salsa lured us into Maestra Vida. It was pretty great- small, and with a local feeling, well-lit and with fun painted walls. And we did the hybrid american-dutch salsa thing until 4 am....
But today, unexpected wistfulness triggered by Anibal and Alejandra talking about Boston was compounded with a visit to the New York Bagel Bakery in Las Condes. A real live bagel with cream cheese (I had to describe to my host family what a bagel was:-), and the other people in the place Americans. I was so close...until I turned around and looked out the window...
