Thats about it. And quite enjoying it all. My couchsurfers here are some of the friendliest and most accomodating I've been with. I cooked dinner for them tonight while they provided the snacks and drinks. There are 2 guys living here...their brothers, sisters, and neices and nephews are always dropping by. It's a pretty tiny place so I sleep in the kitchen/dining room combo. They really enjoy correcting my Spanish and helping me out, plus every once in awhile ask about words in English. It's holidays for Easter starting Thursday afternoon, so no classes on Friday. But nonetheless I am learning a ton because I haven't had any learning structure past practicing vocabulary since I arrived here. Since I've been talking so much in Spanish this month, I have alot of questions for the teacher and should be able to benefit alot from only 12 hours of lessons. After Thursday, there are some great places to hike around here, so I'll probably climb a few hills for some good views. Still trying to decide where to go next after Bariloche. South, but not sure in what order, speed, or manner.
