Why You Should Choose 布宜诺斯艾利斯 to 宝博体育

英式足球 that will keep you at the edge of your seat, 热闹的街头艺术, and travel accessibility in 阿根廷 are more than enough reasons to choose to study abroad in 布宜诺斯艾利斯 与东航.

Many inhabitants of Latin America are of the Catholic faith. What many might not know is that many Latin Americans also have a second religion: soccer.

As soon as we landed and set foot in 布宜诺斯艾利斯 for the first time, we ended up at a watch party in the park. This was nothing like the sports I’d seen back home. Everyone wore jerseys and were with their friends or family at the park. As soon as 阿根廷 scored the winning goal with just a few seconds left in the game, 人群变得疯狂起来. Everyone was jumping, dancing, hugging, and kissing. Soccer brought everyone together. It didn’t matter where you were from or what you looked like.

布宜诺斯艾利斯 is also home to some of the world’s most beautiful street art. It seems as if around every corner was something new to look at on the walls. Palermo was my favorite town in 布宜诺斯艾利斯. The street art was hip, refreshing, and full of life. La Boca in 布宜诺斯艾利斯 was the perfect place to see how colorful the city and people of 布宜诺斯艾利斯 are. Every inch of the town was blanketed in bright colors dancing off the walls and buildings. There's nowhere in the world like it.

You scream, I scream, we all scream for ICE CREAM! Porteños must be adding some magical ingredient to their ice cream, because I have never tasted anything like it. Ice cream and gelato shops are common on any street corner, filled with the richest flavors. I wish could’ve packed a whole suitcase of 拉帕努伊 ice cream to take home with me!

阿根廷 is the perfect Latin American country for even more travel. Seemingly stuck in a time-warp of bygone days, Colonia del Sacramento is just an hour-and-a-half ferry ride away from 布宜诺斯艾利斯. The sunsets here are breathtaking, and the people warm and welcoming. If you travel up north, you'll even see one of the wonders of the world: Iguazú Falls. No pictures can do the falls justice, but these falls are the largest in the world and have multiple parts that stretch into Brazil as well. 的人, 艺术, and the food (which I would need a whole other blog post for) are just a handful of reasons why you will not regret studying in one of the best cities in the world.
