OT: Buenos Aires

I've been in Buenos Aires for the past week, here until mid-December when I fly back to spend time with my family during the holidays...

I did a short-term rental of an apartment through an agency--- I think it's probably pretty expensive relatively, but with my rent, utilities, and high-speed internet, it costs no more than what I was paying in Las Vegas (though, I did have a pretty nice pad within walking distance of the Strip in Vegas).

After the holidays, I don't know if I will come back here to stay longer, but I'm definitely going to be going somewhere Spanish-speaking.

I hope this doesn't come off as a brag post or anything--- my intention is just to encourage people to take advantage of the freedom that playing SNGs for a living gives you... it's easy to burn out, playing poker day after day... but I can't imagine burning out if I am able to be in a foreign country, exploring a new city during the day, taking a few hours of language lessons every week...

I really appreciate poker right now, and all the downswings and bad beats and miserable sessions are worth it.
