Arthur, Enjoyed your video. Given the large numbers of Italians who immigrated to Argentina have you had the opportunity to use your Italian language skills? Also, being British have any Argentinians brought up the Falklands issue? Best wishes, Jim Scalise
Hi, in Buenos Aires I met a couple from Sardinia who were visiting and on the flight from Sao Paolo to Córdoba I also got chatting with an Italian who had previously lived in the city and was going back to see his mother. Some students have brought up the Falklands/Malvinas War but no one in public has asked me about it...
