Southwestern PA is not quite Buenos Aires...

Hello, loves.

I guess I'm just creating this post to make my blog look less lonely until I actually have something Buenos Aires to write about. I'm not even in the packing stage yet, so I can't regale you with crazy stories about miniature shampoo bottles and comfortable walking shoes. But soon, ladies and gentlemen, soon! I promise.

Hasta... luego.
