We're over this town

Just got back from Buenos Aires. That's in Argentina, chief. Um, South America? The Global South? It's south of Miami. That's where "Miami Vice" was filmed. Still not ringing a bell? You're an idiot.

How was it? Awesome. Second best city in the world. The first? Guess.

So, anyway, one of the best parts of BA was the stencil art and graffiti. No surface or wall went untouched, and a lot of the stencils were really creative and kickasstastic.


Simple, elegent. Um, blue.

I think I may have read about these guys in college.

"The fault lies with the Vatican." Made all the more poignant because it was on the gate of a church. Tough words, sure. But considering abortion is still illegal in the fervantly Catholic Argentina, the message still rings true. A couple portenos told me that they were fairly confident that abortion would be legalized in a few years. Until then, women have limited access to birth control, and it seemed everywhere I turned in the city, women were preggers or towing along a litter of ninos y ninas. Crazzzy.
This is one of my favs. It was everywhere. I think it's supposed to be Evo Morales, but I could be wrong.

Lastly, a simple message that I kind of felt after two and half weeks in a country where I couldn't understand what anyone was saying.
I didn't really want to leave, but I admit, I kinda ran out of things to do. Plus, it's 14 degrees in New York! How could I possibly miss that?
