One of my most memorable experience in Argentina was learning the Argentine Tango. For my birthday the Lindahls provided private tango lessons for me. My teacher, Ivan and I met twice a week for two, two hours sessions in an event room on the first floor of our apartment building. He had to break a lot of my ballroom habits, but said that I was a good student and learned fast.
On my last day of classes, we did a small recital and filmed us dancing together. It also happened to be the same day that we had the sister missionaries over for a sister conference so they got to enjoy the show too!

Just so you know, the Argentine Tango that I learned was the social lead-follow dance. That means, that what we are dancing is not pre-choreographed and I can go anywhere and dance with anyone who knows the tango.

Sarina Thomas - you go on a sort of "mini-mission" where you are teaching spanish to a mission presidents wife and you decide to take along with you a pair of latin sandals and a latin skirt? What did the sister missionaries think?
