Settling Down

We arrived in Cordoba late Saturday afternoon with a four day reservation at an Airbnb apartment close to Parque Sarmiento in the heart of the city. Since our arrival, we’ve been scouting out neighborhoods and contacting leasing agents in an attempt to find the ideal location to spend the next two months. We wanted to find a place close to the park so we can run off a few calories in the morning, close to some good fruit markets so we can eat something other than alfajores, and near several good vegan/vegetariian restaurants and markets so I won’t have to spend too much time in the kitchen.

Despite our rudimentary Spanish, we were able to book a few appointments to see potential residences (thank you Google Translate) and decide which area of town would be best suited to our needs.
Although none of the units we visited were perfect, we ended up leasing the very first one we contacted and, on Wednesday we’ll be moving into our new digs only a stone’s throw from Parque Sarmiento and close to everything else we’ll need until we leave in January.

It’ll be really nice to unpack our things once and for all after having been somewhat nomadic over the last thirty days

Now we can get on with REALLY exploring this beautiful city and all it has to offer.Meer informatie
