This blog is mostly in Spanish, but you can use Google translate 🙂 It's for English teachers because it's that nameless exercise where someone writes a sentence, covers it up and passes it down the line. Here's the version TJ, another student and I created yesterday: Una noche oscura "Los adolescentes caminaban por la ciudad …

Cacio e pepe in the making! Wow, did we have a busy weekend. Our friend Tamar arrived Wednesday so now we have another partner in this adventure. But even before I get to the dance party, I have to tell you about the very best dessert, which I had following fabulous cacio e pepe (yes, …
The enormity of Iguazu Falls is mind boggling and our “expedition” was broken into four parts, the lower trail, the boat ride, the upper trail and the Brazilian side. I have attempted to capture a taste of what it was like on video. I was using my GoPro, which I had not picked up in …
We took a weekend jaunt to Iguazu Falls, about an hour and a half plane trip from Buenos Aires. For some reason we can no longer remember, we took at 7:30 a.m. flight. Not knowing how long it would take to get an Uber or what security would be like at the airport (not the …
Today we arrived in Buenos Aires. It is the first time either of us has been to South America and the first day of about seven months away. Sue took this one in the morning... We flew from Miami on Saturday night – our flight left at 11:15 p.m. and arrived in Buenos Aires at …

This was our last weekend for this trip to Paris as we are heading to London next Saturday. Friday night we decided to try a Mexican restaurant near Montmarte cemetery in the 18th arrondissement. The place had good reviews on Google but we are quite disappointed. The food was at best mediocre, the drinks were …
[Oops, this is not Steven talking, it's Susan!] Not to sound snobby (although sometimes I feel like we do just because of our lifestyle), but we have been in Paris many times and we've checked off all the really touristy stuff so we try to explore areas where real Parisians are (and where we may …
