There are a million Argentine tango blogs out there, but tangocherie is the best I've come across.
She isn't a beginner dancer but has ten years experience of dancing in Buenos Aires and this lady knows what she's talking about. Plus she's a very good writer.
Highly entertaining read--touching on living the expat life, Burnos Aires, travel and art, and other topics.
