Meet someone from The South/Georgia
Today I went running to Puerto Madero. I was almost there when I spotted a college Letterman jacket that said N.C. State. I could not resist the opportunity to talk these people. The guy wearing the jacket was from North Carolina and so was his friend. They were both staying in Buenos Aires for a job inspecting the amount of polution generated from a turbine. I was so excited to talk about sweet tea, southern culture, North Carolina, Georgia, just anything. The two guys were typical young Southern guys. We walked around the port for thirty minutes just sharing our stories about places we had been. These guys travled all over for their jobs. They were in Vegas, Puerto Rico, Spain just all over. After our little walk we decided to go to an all you can eat chineese resturant not far from my hostel. The food was excellent. You had all your typical options plus they had a grill. You could chose any cut of meat and they would give it to you. What a great night. The truth is that I had been feeling a little homesick earlier. I decided to take a nap. When I woke up I thought a nice jog would clear my mind. Then I run into these guys. I didn't feel one bit of homesickness after the night was over. I actually felt like I was at home entertaining guests. I guess you get what you need just when you need it.
