MAY in TOUR IN FOCUS...

.. in AGUITBA!

Today we start a new City tour in focus course! This time in a new venue: AGUITBA!

Courses in Aguitba are open to both, members and not members; that's to say, to all the Tour Guides who want to improve their English tours! (Of course, it goes without saying that the members have special discounts)

 Other courses are starting soon... Don't miss them!

Should I Exchange or should I not?


There’s an ongoing topic we can’t avoid when meeting our passengers for the first time: the exchange rate. Regardless of where you suggest them exchange, there is something we all have to mention: the blue dollar.

Here you’ll find some useful words to talk about this…

To democratize the judicial power


These days there is a difficult topic to deal with: the judicial reform. However, as usual, we need to talk about the current issues in the country, especially when there are so many strikes and demonstrations about them.

Pray for me

Undoubtedly, the announcement of the new Pope took more than one Argentine by surprise. And, although not everyone was of the same mind, our Bergoglio became a new hope for many Catholics and a national proud for many Argentines.

In this article, far from attempting a speech for a new tour, we aim to see some useful words to talk about this issue.

WELCOME SPRING!


The best season of the year has just started!
There are two words that you’d better have at hand during this season: BLOOM & BLOSSOM.  

When a flower blooms, it opens or is open. When a plant or tree blooms, it produces flowers.

We can also use the phrase to be in bloom. When are the jacaranda trees in full bloom?

To blossom can be used for plants & trees, and also with people: when people blossom, they become more attractive, successful or confident. And when relationships blossom, they develop and become stronger – A friendship may blossom into love! Happy Spring!!!

A nice poem to enjoy…

 
THE SEASON OF SPRING

the season of spring
weather seems to sing
lovely lovely days
are coming our ways

the season of spring
blooming blossoming
of nature of all kind
let roots unbind

the season of spring
birds unfold their wings
diving high into sky
wish one could fly

the season of spring
nice sound bells ring
new wave new style
faces have on a smile

listen listen to my words
the season of spring is near
now a look into your lovely eyes
and one can see spring is already here
