Belen, Agustin and Juancho's apartment is just there on the right of this foto. Claudia and Cacho (my parents from my second host family while I was in Argentina the first time, 6 years ago) had driven into town to see the kids during the long weekend. My sister Vicki wasn't there. She was mid-way through a Rotarian exchange to Australia, but in her stead was a cool gal named Mily from Sydney who I quickly became friends with. Good food, cooking lessons (Mily and I learned how to make ñoquis, heated discussions over who should win the Roger cup (my brothers are avid tennis fans) and an epic guys vs girls bowling match. Girls took first honors, but then unfortunately our luck ran away from us and the guys swept us... major bummer.
a crowd of boys arrived on their bikes and skateboards to play soccer/futbol. I wished for my cleats so I could play, but knew I wouldn't have had the courage to invite myself in to what was clearly a neighborhood rumble
My host brother Agustin. Family resemblance much??
Agustin Lauria.... proof to the world that Argentine men can too cook!!
