12 months rolls around pretty fast when you’re having fun.. hmm, I think there were a few other experiences thrown in there too haha but here I am, almost at the end of my Bikram shuffle with a month to go here at Bikram Yoga Buenos Aires, Argentina!

After spending last month in a dusty little room in a student boarding house operated by a lovely family, sneezing and blowing my nose every day I decided to find a sun filled apartment in Buenos Aires. A tad more expensive but hey, it’s my last month AND Christmas, so let the coin jar run out in style right?! Picture this: asleep on a big, soft, white bed, dreaming of yoga (of course) and.. wtf is that.. a brass band, chanting, a military parade?! What looked like a lovely green park on google maps turns out to be a military base. We couldn’t see much of the parade and I thought of taking setting up the camera but what was I thinking – taking video of a military base?! I could have been doing the next 30 day challenge in lockup in, I’m guessing, some advanced postures!

The 6am bugle call makes for a great alarm clock and the 8am morning parade is kind of like the snooze option. I’m kind of enjoying it although last night was our first late night out at a Milonga. We haven’t been to a lesson yet so unfortunately we couldn’t tango the night away.. yet!

Thanks to Carla, Jay, Daniela all the friendly teachers and yogis BYBA for making us feel so welcome!
