Summer Semester & Winter months in Buenos Aires


Coming to Buenos Aires for your "summer semester?" Pack some heavy clothes! This is a special note for gap year and college students who are preparing for a summer in Buenos Aires.

June, July and August are chilly months in Argentina. It's super important to pack layers, stockings, turtle necks, long johns, a snug hat, hoodies, thick socks and a big coat/fleece. Snow isn't an issue, but Buenos Aires is specifically humid year round and the cold can really settle in.

Also important to note is that dinner and night time festivities will be indoors as opposed to the usual outdoor hanging out that takes place in popular locations like Plaza Serrano (Cortazar) and Plaza Armenia. Don't be shy to stick your head into smaller joints and peƱas to join in on the fun.

Food from the north of Argentina is specifically great for the winter with steamy empanadas and stews called "guisos." Locro is a specific stew that has white beans (very rare in BA!) but is also packed with gross animal parts that are not part of a healthy human diet.

The best way to keep warm this winter semester is by enjoy Send Love BA's home made chicken soup. We make it fresh to order and deliver 6 servings right to your door. Cold and flu season is here and we're here with our Get Well Soon package to sooth your sniffles.

Hi there!
I think that Buenos Aires has a great temperature in winter. I'm from NYC and winters there are quite freezing!
Anyway, I packed warm clothes and now I'm in my Buenos Aires apartment prepared to start my adventure in the city.
