Mente Argentina
Scott Coleman's Cooking Experience in Buenos Aires
Scott Coleman's experience with Mente Argentina
Scott had visited Argentina before joining Mente Argentina, so he arrived with high expectations and was not disappointed. He enjoyed the excursions and social time, but most of all the chance to experience Argentina as someone living here rather than as a weekend visitor. He combined wine tasting and cooking classes with photography, and photography, a surprise, became his clear favorite, so his advice is to try something you have never done before. He found the people running the program fantastic, with not a single detail overlooked. His recommendation: leave your expectations at home, come with eyes and heart wide open, and enjoy the food, the wine, the company and speaking castellano.
In Scott Coleman's own words

If you are considering Mente Argentina, I highly recommend it. I had a great experience here. I had some experience with Argentina before being part of this program, so I came with a high level of expectation, and I was not disappointed. I really enjoyed the excursions and the social time, but I also had an opportunity to see Argentina as someone who lived here. Before, I had come here on weekends, but when you live someplace you have a very different experience. I highly recommend that you leave all of your expectations at home, that you come with your eyes wide open and your heart open, and that you enjoy the food, the wine, the company, and speaking castellano. He is a good guy. All of the gestures and everything. The people here at the program were fantastic. There was not one detail that was overlooked, and I highly suggest that you come here to Argentina. My name is Scott Coleman, and I was part of the wine tasting and the cooking classes, as well as photography. By far my favorite was the photography. It was a surprise. Try something new. If you see all of the offerings, try something new that you have never done before.
