Arrived safe and sound!

Just added the map so you can see how far it is from Buenos Aires to Salta in the north!

My journey on the bus was really good and as a part of the bus intertainment they have Bus Bingo..... so as you can imagine everyone was getting really into it and I was having a bit of a laugh with the people around me then of course, I realised I had won and had to shout "BINGO".... so automatically I was bright red then the prize was a bottle of wine which I had to kindly accept but I think my face said it all! They asked me, "do you not drink?" then from there on in, they took the pee that I was a T total Irish girl!


After a long journey, I arrived in Salta and coming down the mountain, looking over the city, I can honestly say that for the first time in my life I was totally speechless (yes this may be a shock for you all). All I can say is that it is GREAT to be back!! It´s so lovely to see everyone again and to see how things have developed!


I´ve been here for a little over 24 hours.... all I can say is that i´ve embraced the culture already because already I have blinking headlice!! No!! Not much fun but part of life here! Haha.... Another thing which will make you laugh, yesterday I went into the city center and they have changed all the bus stops in the city center! I was sooooo lost it wasn´t even funny then I eventually took my bus and ended up going in totally the wrong direction and I was lost in the middle of the mountains!! Of course when I arrived back home, all the Argentines laughed and said.... "opps I forgot to say!!"


This weekend I will be able to catch up with nearly everyone which will be lovely and they are having a surprise party for me on saturday.... which of course leaked out very quickly!!


Really having a great time so far and can´t wait to get stuck into my work!!
Keep in touch! xx
