After week of buying last minute things, packing, dancing and dining at our favorite restaurants with friends, we are off to Spain for the month.
In saying Goodbyes to the city and friends, they will be missed, and I look forward to returning to this beautiful place I call home.
This week was all about doing things that we hadn’t done in long time or always meant to do.
Three lovely organizers, Zoraida, Julia & Quique
And the weather has been spectacular for fall in Buenos Aires.Was a bit colder a couple of weeks ago. Looking forward to the heat and sun of Spain.

It’s exciting to experience a new cuisine. With this in mind will look forward to meeting new tangeros, and finding those new places for coffee. Dancing in Spain will be a bit different from Buenos Aires, but tango is Tango. Look forward to the newness in ways I don’t know.

I chose tango as my dance because I love the lifestyle, embrace, and, yes, dressing up.
In my tango series, I share images shot worldwide, in the places where I have danced: Spain, France, Germany Turkey,Canada,Italy Greece, and the USA, but mostly in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
With my written stories, I try to share some of the experiences that have stayed with me... An amazing embrace, a beautiful meal, a slightly uncomfortable life moment at a stay a train station or airport. These are the moments we remember.
As to my personal info, I was born in New Jersey eventually, after living in New York, Boston, and San Francisco, most recently on San Juan Island in Washington state, I moved to Buenos Aires in January 2020.
For 38 years, years I curated a contemporary art gallery, where I refined my skills and became a visual editor.
Always with a camera or some picture-capturing device in tow [including much heavy equipment], I started my travel at approximately the same time, was introduced to tango about 12 years ago.
VIsual storytelling begins with a moment. Some internal mechanism is triggered by a scene or event or movement and ...there's your photo.
Other times, it’s about a sliver of color or something else odd or ordinary that captures the eye.
As I am now fluent in Spanish, it is my desire that my stories and photos reach the broader tango community and other travelers.
Travelingtango offers translations into Spanish, Italian, and German.
Abrazo!!!
