 | The casa cost me around twenty dollars and the woman wanted extra five dollars for food and cooking. Money was an issue in this country because no one had any. It is a very poor nation with great people.
My experience at Vocabulix has been great. I really think that this site has helped me a lot in improving my Spanish language skills. I believe that I could learn here several other languages.
We paid for the taxi and waited thirty minutes for the driver to arrive. Again, Argentina reminded me of Italy. We drove into town and were looking for a place. The town made a great first impression. |
