First day of class!

Today was the first day of intensive spanish classes at the Univ. of Buenos Aires Law School. All of the students are currently on summer break but will be returning in mid-Feb.

Here are some pictures I took of the university today!

The entrance to the university:

The building is amazing. It's more like a museum than a school!

This is the room where we were given an introduction to UBA. 15 Argentine presidents graduated from here!

The group of us with the secretary of student life and administration:

A view from inside the building. I can't believe I am going to school here!

I had a great first day of classes and took the bus on the way to school but walked home after with a classmate who lives close to my apartment. The bus is about 30 cents each way. It's very inexpensive but the coins are hard to come by here as they have a shortage. UBA is about 1.5 miles away from my apartment, so we will be getting our walks in!
