Olive´s in BA
Author
I am a working mother, dog owner, housekeeper, chauffeur, cook and live music fanatic who has been happily settled in BA since 2003. I consider my relationship with this country much like a marriage, for better or worse and am determined to see the silver lining in most every cloud and bitch loudly when there isn´t one.
I am originally from Virginia and love returning to the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains, a far cry from the vast flatlands of the Province of Buenos Aires. I love my family and my pets, strongly like my job and dislike unnnecessary rudeness and poverty, especially as it affects small children.
