New Budget..

US dollar is weak now. I hope the exchange rate to AP stays the same. Here is the new budget for the two weeks trip:

Round trip ticket: $880 (www.hotwire.com)
Two weeks studio rental: $380.00 (www.bytargentina.com)
Transportation: $220 ($120 adjusted)
Meals: $250.00
Milongas: $120
Private lessons(with J&A): $1000
Shopping for shoes and cds: $250.00 ($350 adjusted, Yeah! one more pair of shoes)

Total trip costs: $3100.00
An experience of lifetime: priceless.

There is something money can't buy, for everything else I still don't have a clue...

  2. I doubt you'll spend that much on transportation :-) - throw it in the shoe fund!

    (Of course I'D say that)

  3. La Tanguera,

    Glad that it made a fellow tanguera smile. You are most welcome.

    Tina,

    Thank god that men's shoes cost less than the women's! Do intend to bring back a few pairs of Darco's (they are very comfy) and lots of cds.

    Good recommendation on the fund allocation!

  4. Just keep making the money because you'll keep wanting to return! Whatever you don't spend this time can be reserved for BA Trip #2, #3, #4, etc.
