Well hello again, you.
So I know that I have taken a rather lengthy hiatus from posting. In early August I hit the one-year mark with my beloved Buenos Aires. This also happened to come at a rather unsettling time of reflection and direction(lessness), and I was somewhat with out inspiration, and equally lacking in ganas to post. Who really likes those self-indulged blogs anyways? I sure don’t. This one is enough on the borderline that I feared any posts would materialize themselves into a whiny trail of thoughts, and thus turn this into a ‘far-too-much-information’ thing, which has never, and will never, be my intention. But now I’m back – with direction, with inspiration, with ganas, and with spring.
After a year filled with various jobs in a big and exciting foreign city, dance has been my therapy. July gave way to me quitting my job and having some serious “what am I doing with myself” moments, all of which led me to the (if somewhat reluctant) conclusion that truly, honestly, dance is the only thing that I can foresee myself doing…at least for the not so immediate future. For right now, I’m not done with the stage. So try I will to perform here in Baires, and if that doesn’t work, then there are myriad other facets of the dance industry that will hopefully provide employment. Because after all, how does one ever know if they don’t at least try? It’s the main thing that has made me happy since before I could even make my own decisions, and thus I don’t really think it’s going anywhere. As a very good dancer friend of mine said: “dance is like a lover you can never, ever get over”. That’s the truth…but hell, it’s a lover that I never want to get over.
This epiphany and its timing led me to debate beginning some new creative projects. New year, new blog, let’s say. Something a bit less personal, while still maintaining the creative outlet. Though ultimately, this blog has essentially been the main ‘consistent’ throughout all of my time here in Baires, and as a result, it’s here to stay. Albeit with a bit of a makeover 
So here we are (if I may borrow from Bloc Party). September 22nd marked the official first day of Spring (and my 24th birthday!), and one of my favorite seasons in Buenos Aires. The warm weather is coming and I’m stoked to take my lovely camera away from it’s perching place (a shelf in my closet) and start documenting some of the action.
Stay tuned kids, for the adventure is most definitely continuing.
