Mona's Intensive Spanish Experience in Buenos Aires

My name is Mona. I'm from New Jersey, in the United States. I came here for a little bit over a week. I came mainly to study Spanish. I took a five-day Spanish class through the Mente Argentina program, and I also came to tour around the city between Christmas and New Year's. I totally recommend, if you want to come to Buenos Aires, that you stay for over a week, at least two weeks. I think two weeks is more than enough, but not less than that, because now I'm sad I'm going back home and I'm not happy. But it is what it is. Also, I recommend that whatever you plan to do here in the city, or in Argentina in general, you reach out to a Mente Argentina representative and tell them what you plan to do and what kind of excursions you want. They helped me a lot. Every time I had a question, I'd email David or any other representative, and they answered very quickly, by email and by text. They had a lot of good ideas for me and sent me a lot of helpful links. It's very important that you reach out to a representative, because if you're in a new country, you don't know where to go and you don't know what to do. You really need someone to help you. I also liked that they were very helpful in arranging an apartment. The apartment is very convenient, very close to the subway station, within about a five- or seven-minute walk. I love everything and I just don't want to leave, but I have to go back home. So that's it.
