One could say that Buenos Aires and I are "on a break." It's clear that we're not right for each other at this very moment. But I don't think either of us regret having discovered so much of one another.

What is Buenos Aires to me?
Today I saw Eat Pray Love, that movie based on Elizabeth Gilbert's memoir. Of course I ended the movie like a full-spirited traveller that I am, reinspired to see the world and find myself through doing so. This train of thought, of course, led me to think about Buenos Aires. My relationship to Buenos Aires is just that: a relationship. Buenos Aires and I were not friends with benefits. We were not a batty-eyed crush. We were definitely not a one-night-stand, and certainly more than "just friends." In fact, the more that I think about it, I think Buenos Aires and I were truly in love. In my limited 22 year old knowledge of love, it is a puzzling mix of some battles, some romance, some careful planning, and some surprises.
