Touchdown in Buenos Aires!

Hey all-
I'm here and getting settled. I met up with a former co-worker from LA, Remington, my first day, and we shared a hostel room Wednesday night, along with a cool guy from Lithuania that sat next to me on my plane from DC. We did some sightseeing... saw Evita's resting place at the Recoleta Cemetery, as well as some cathedrals, etc. Even took my first tango lesson yesterday! It's tough, but I think it'd be really fun to be good at it, so I'm sure I'll go again.
Found a room to rent, on the border of the Palermo and Barrio Norte neighborhoods. Living with a French guy who's here studying, and an American girl.
Two interviews for jobs teaching English next week, and hopefully more to come, if necessary.
Did my first grocery shopping today, and there was definitely some guessing going on as I pulled stuff off the shelves, despite my extensive Spanish.
Check out some videos that I've posted and I'll be updating more soon.
-Brent
