At around 10am, I wake up (on the 22nd floor overlooking the entire city, might I add) and greet my roommates. Through Mente , I have met people from ALL over the world . Right now, my roommates are from Holland and Switzerland!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Each morning during the week, the roommates drink mate, listen to latin music, and eat breakfast together whenever they can.\u00a0 Then, she catches the Colectivo from Palermo to Belgrano, for class at University of Belgrano (15 minute ride).\u00a0 Her classmates are Argentine and from a plethora of countries.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/class-campbell.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1917\" src=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/class-campbell-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"class campbell\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/class-campbell-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/class-campbell.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After class, Campbell goes to a nearby caf\u00e9 with friends to have empanadas, before taking the bus home. Then, she jogs through the Japanese Gardens or in the Bosques de Palermo, a large park with a jogging path, filled with walkers, runners, bikers, longboarders and mostly rollerbladers.<\/p>\n<p>Afterwards, she cooks dinner and goes to a caf\u00e9 called Voltaire for some coffee and homework action. When the homework load is less, Antares happy hour becomes\u00a0 her scene. (a Mente favorite, might I add)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause University of Belgrano only has classes Monday through Thursday, Thursday night is usually a big night out in the city. So, Friday morning (more like afternoon), we like to start the weekend off right by heading to \u201cOui Oui\u201d (which I swear has the BEST brunch in all of Argentina)\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/oui-oui.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1919\" src=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/oui-oui-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"oui oui\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/oui-oui-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/oui-oui.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Campbell often finds herself with too many options to chose from when it comes to weekend activities.\u00a0 She frequents open air markets, the MALBA art museum, and protests on 9 de Julio (the widest avenue in the world). There are also always unexpected\u00a0 experiences, as well, like the pop-up Little Italy Festival that occurred near her backyard.<\/p>\n<p>Campbell becomes whimsical when she tells me of her hours spent with friends at restaurants, watching the slow paced portenos (BA natives) pass by.\u00a0 She also gushes about the delicious natural juices she buys from Tiendas Naturales to cure the occasional hangover. Campbell loves to ly in the parks, which become packed with young people when the sun is out, drinking mate and eager for a tan.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We also have lots of asados (Argentine BBQ), especially on Sundays.&#8221;\u00a0 Campbell meets with Portenos in cafes as well, to practice Spanish, while they practice English. \u201cSometimes I even just wander around the city, soaking in its beauty, and exploring new places\u201d, says Campbell.\u00a0 She also went on a ski trip to Bariloche with friends during a long weekend, taking advantage of the fresh pow-pow Argentina has to offer.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/skiing.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1920\" src=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/skiing-300x201.jpg\" alt=\"skiing\" width=\"300\" height=\"201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/skiing-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/skiing.jpg 789w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>At night, on weekends, Campbell eats dinner between 10PM and midnight. She likes to then listen to live music at bars to get the night started and sometimes around 2AM, she and her friends move to a boliche (nightclub) to dance until morning.\u00a0 One of the greatest parts of Buenos Aires is the explosion of energy at all hours. A number of bars stay open until 8AM or 9AM as well, for people who are not in the mood for the boliche scene.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/club.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1918\" src=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/club-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"club\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/club-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.menteargentina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/club-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Favorite Boliches: Brook, Rosebar, Crobar, and Jet<\/p>\n<p>Favorite Bars: Ocho-7-Ocho, Unico, Ferona, Tequila, and The Roof<\/p>\n<p>Favorite Restaurants: Taco Box, Al Zain, and Sapporo<\/p>\n<p>Campbell lives a very fulfilling life in Buenos Aires, filled with a balance of academics, new and enriching experiences, wonderful friends, good food, parties, and relaxation.
