Moving from bleak to chic

So for the first month we lived in a place that at first seemed like some walls and a bed. It worked and it had Internet. So we started looking for another place that we liked better and that would meet our needs for the remainder 4 months of our trip in Bs. As. Note to anyone traveling here it is difficult to find rentals for the month of December through the 1st of January due to the holidays. I guess many people like to come to the city to celebrate! So the city is just like any other city. It is huge and crowded. (hint to self not sure if I am so down with gigantic cities) So anyway we finally found a place to rent and it was directly through the landlord, which is great because you don't have to pay all the fees and you can bargain a bit more. Well Kent talk him down from 1100 US dollars to 900 US. So he is feeling pretty good about himself, so am I. Well the place is great it is a two bedroom so anyone who wants to come and stay we would love to have you. It also has a huge kitchen for the city, which is awesome for how much we like to cook. Also what we have been finding is that it is difficult to find a good variety in food here. It is mostly Pizza, empanadas and Italian. So Kent and I like to cook every so often to give our taste buds a break from the tomato, basil, mozzarella. Oh another odd thing about this country is that you must pay your rent all up front and it is very much liked if the money is in US dollars. So Kent and I saw at the atm that they offered US dollars as a choice, so we go and try to get it. Well turns out that they only give out US dollars to Argentine's because they don't want it to leave the country. So we had to withdraw 11,000 pesos from the atm throughout 1 week. It was crazy but it worked. I think the landlord was a little disappointed when we told him we could not get the US dollars. So anyway we are now in our Home Sweet Home for the next 4 months.
