Athena - Argentina- Hanging with the housewives y las abuelas

   Today, after a slow start, I walked around the neighborhood and had tea at a café- Café Martinez. Sitting outside was nice, almost like something out of a movie. There was a lot of hustle & bustle around me—people walking their dogs, others walking to work, delivery guys dropping off food, old couples walking hand in hand, a random guy on a jog. I loved sitting outside and just taking it all in. As I looked around me I noticed most of the other people at the café were housewives, usually with a small kid in tow or older ladies- abuelas (grandmothers) I presume. It was very funny that this was the crowd I was hanging out with because I’m neither a housewife nor an abuela, but for now these are my new friends.
