E64 - Starting Over in Argentina: A Russian Immigrant in Buenos Aires
About this episode
In this episode, I sit down in Palermo with Ruslán (“Rusentino”), a Russian immigrant living in Buenos Aires, and he opens up about what it really feels like to start over in Argentina. We talk culture shock, the Russian-speaking community in the city, and how he went from zero Spanish to actually communicating in real life. Just when you think you’ve got the full picture, the conversation takes an unexpected turn… Press play and come with us.
