Hi, I'm Anna and I am living as an exchange student in Cordoba. Argentina.
I am living with a family and attending school here. I arrived July 18th and have been loving every minute of my stay here!
I can't belive that I have to leave so soon! I have been having the time of my life, trying new foods, going to new places, and experiencing a new life.
This blog as been set up for my family and friends so that they can see all the crazy adventures I have been having here

Today we walked around downtown Cordoba city. There were so many people everywhere!
People just like to congregate in the square. There were at least two hundred highschool to college age people just sitting around drinking matte (the local tea). Mate is very interesting, it is like tea leaves put into a cup, but there is no tea bag. You fill the cup all the way up with the yerba (tea leaves) then drink threw a special bombilla (straw). It has small holes at the bottom so you dont drink the leaves. It has a very strong flavor that most people add sugar too.

Staying with the germans is very confusing, because while i am trying to learn spanish i keep hearing german.

I meet my family on saturday, and start school on monday!!! AHHH wish me luck!

my super cool, super nice Norwegian friend sayss " Hei du! Hvordan har du det? Ha det bra."

Adios!
