The Journey Begins

Hello all!

Here, I will be writing and posting pictures about my time in Córdoba, Argentina, where I will be on a study abroad program until mid-March. Hopefully it will be interesting, so read and enjoy!

Departing from JFK

I arrived today in Córdoba, Argentina, nearly 24 hours after checking in to JFK airport in New York, tired but excited to be here. I took an overnight flight from NYC to Santiago, Chile and then spent several hours there before making the hour and a half flight to Córdoba. Despite being a bit cramped, the 11 hour flight to Santiago wasn't too bad, thanks to the nice personal TVs on the seats that allowed you to watch movies, TV shows, listen to music, and even charge your iPod!

My view as we descended on Santiago

I met up with several of my fellow Union students in Santiago, so that was nice to share the experience of coming into the country with them. We spend tonight in a hotel before diving into the program tomorrow, getting a tour of the city, meeting our host families, etc. Everything seems pretty great so far, and I'll keep everyone updated!
