Monday was an errand day, organizing notes and attending an interview for class. Tuesday we explored el Barrio Chino (ChinaTown), which is about five blocks long, and enjoyed some long-awaited Asian food. Wednesday we did some shopping and went to the movie theater for the first time, a great experience and a lot like the one at home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Thursday and Friday I went on solo adventures, returning to La Boca and spending time in the beautiful Jard\u00edn Japon\u00e9s (Japanese garden). Later we joined over one thousand international students for a welcome party. Lastly, on Saturday we wandered around the San Telmo fair where people sell their handcrafted work. It has been a much-needed week.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-42 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/2023\/03\/14\/a-week-in-buenos-aires\/img_8533\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8533-scaled-1.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-43\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8533-scaled-1.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8533-scaled-1-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8533-scaled-1-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8533-scaled-1-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8533-scaled-1-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-43'>\n\t\t\t\tEl Barrio Chino\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/2023\/03\/14\/a-week-in-buenos-aires\/img_8563\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8563-scaled-1.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-44\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8563-scaled-1.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8563-scaled-1-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8563-scaled-1-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8563-scaled-1-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/blogs.holycross.edu\/ashleysok\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/03\/IMG_8563-scaled-1-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, 100vw\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-44'>\n\t\t\t\tEl Jard\u00edn Japon\u00e9s\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It seems like all of the change is finally catching up to me as I have been feeling a little under the weather.
