People who stay

Posted by Tina

I met a girl from the States the other day who had been taking lessons with my old friend. We connected right away and chatted about the things we love about Buenos Aires, etc. I asked her how long her stay here was going to be, and she responded, “Well, actually… I was supposed to leave 5 days ago…”

Sound familiar?

I WANT TO DO THAT TOO!!!!

I have to remind myself that the reason for why I ~~can’t~~ choose not to do that is because I have a loving husband and son that have to come first right now. Sometimes I forget, because this rebel wayfarer heart of mine wants to do just what she did and what you did: Go, and stay.
For now I have to settle with “go and leave and go again”. At least that’s better than not going at all.
And yeah, I’m feeling sorry for myself right now. Never mind me.

Sounds very familiar

Wish I have the option to extend my visits to Buenos Aires! But alas, responsibilities such as…motherhood prevents me from doing that but as soon as my boys are off to university…I will be making plans to stay much much longer in BsAs.

Ha Another one. Did you offer her a bed as well?

Tina said in May 29th, 2008 at 5:36 pm

No way! She’s on her own there. Though I did point her to some useful sites.

I totally agree! Man, if I’d had more money saved up, I wouldn’t have left either. I’m working on getting a career I can take anywhere…and then I’ll come join you Tina.
