Miami Gal Freezing

[melaboots]

I just arrived to BA this week and I'm not adjusting well to the cold. I'm here for the next 5 months (and I'll return next year for another 6 months), and I don't really know many people yet. How's a gal go about making friends in this city? My Spanish conversational skills need work, but it'd be cool to meet some friendly expats to explore the city with.

I´m in the same boat, Melaboots!

Hi Melissa! What neighborhood are you staying in? Maybe we could meet up for drinks this week...

 

[melissaabalo]

I´m in Montserrat and you?

Buenos Aires can suprise many with its cold that come in polar waves at least once a year . In 2007 when it snowed here the same happened a week of below zero temperatures but we had the snow that put a huge smile on every ones faces.

I was hoping for snow again but alas it does not look like it will happen

Hi Melaboots! Welcome! I am from Chicago and even I am freezing here, due to insufficient warm clothing! I just moved here 2 weeks ago and I totally understand needing some social activities! Let me know if you would like to meet up sometime this week!

Melissa, I'm staying a block away from Plaza de Congreso now, and moving to Palermo the first week of August.

Pericles, I was actually here (in La Lucila for a short visit) July 9 of 2007 when it snowed (that's me on the right, the Florida girl, all excited about a little snow).. so surprise! I didn't expect it to be nearly snowing for another 90 years...

Sunelaugh - That sounds great - do you recommend any places for drinks and conversation? I've gotten an email from another gal in her 20s, maybe we could coordinate a fun group meet up??
