I just got a job working in a hostel as the receptionist/bartender for the night shift which means less checking in and more chatting up the guest. The hostel is Lime House, http://www.limehouse.com.ar/, and from what I can tell super cool and very laid back. It's run by a husband and wife team in two ancient houses combined to form the hostel. Rooms go for as little as u.s. $10 a night and if your feeling fancy you can upgrade to $18.
I start training on Monday which I guess means I will be working on my birthday. Do you think they'll know me well enough by day two to sing and bring me a birthday treat? Oh well, if not.
anyways, I'm super excited about having a job again! I thought I would be able to just chill out and play for a while but it seems 3-4 months is all I can take.
I'll be giving up the nightlife for myself in persuit of advising travelers on which place they need to be sure to visit on each night, depending on what kind of parties the clubs are having and the type of music of course. Maybe I should try out a few more places before monday! For their sake only of course!!!
now.... for the new apartment!!!!!!!!
It's in Palermo Hollywood I think but maybe technically Palermo Soho (not sure). In the heart of the restaurant, shopping, and bar scene (the latter of which i will no longer know). The nieghborhood is about as safe as it gets since there is always people hanging around.
2 roomates : Maure, agentine guy working and studying here who speaks if possible, less english than i do spanish. the other is JB (Jean Baptiste) French guy who moved here from spain working in hotels.
The house is really old and georgeous. Huge rooms everywhere all with mahogany floors and an really cool windows that open up with acordian style shutters. there is a long balcony off the living room overlooking the street below and letting in somebody's music (there's always music around here). upstairs is a terrace that doesn't have much on it yet but will soon have some kind of pool, lounging area in it. they don't know this yet but i do.
I move in December 1st and there is plenty of room for guest. book your trip and start packing!
All this time I've always been dumbfounded as to how people could live in my country and not speak the language. well....i've crossed over and it's totally easy.
Besos,
Christi
Enhorabuena!!!
