Beyonce Concert/Tennis/ La Casita

Since I have been in Buenos Aires I have done a number of activities from seeing the Beyonce Concert to playing tennis with my fellow friends. The Beyonce concert was amazing and I am not afraid to admit. It was an experience seeing Beyonce with a bunch of Argentines. Argentines are extremely rowdy people that get really excited over anything, which makes everything here really fun! The concert was held about 45 minutes away from my house so getting there was no problem, but coming back home took 3 hours since the crowded coming out of the concert was so massive that there were huge lines for the public transportation and even taxies. Our seats could have been better but overall I had an amazing time!

I got the chance to play tennis on a clay court with some of my buddies down here in Argentina. Playing on clay is a lot more difficult then I thought it would be but it was a lot of fun!

For one of our school nights out or convocations we got the chance to watch a show about the history of Argentina and then enjoyed Asado (Argentina's version of our BBQ). The show was very long and kind of boring, but every so often a horse would come out and do a cool trick so it was bearable.

Another activity that I enjoy doing once a week is volunteering at a local school in Tigre called La Casita. Every week about five Pepperdine students go to this school and hangout with the kids. We teach them english (they teach us spanish) and we just play with them. This school is for parents who can't afford to put their children into a real school so I am glad that we can help out by teaching the kids, even if its just once a week.
