Review

I recently completed a two week cooking program and a two week wine program in Buenos Aires with Mente. Having never been to Argentina before, the Mente staff were very helpful in getting me acquainted with the city. My accommodation was located in the bustling neighbourhood of Palermo, and both the Mente staff and my fellow students were very friendly and welcoming upon my arrival.
Both programs I enrolled in were top notch and taught at well regarded institutions in Buenos Aires. The instructors were very knowledgeable and helpful. I left with new skills and more knowledge of Argentinian cuisine and wine, and I would recommend both programs.
The social events organized by Mente were excellent, and a great way to see different parts of the city and get to know students in other programs, as well as the Mente staff.
Lastly, the city of Buenos Aires is an absolute gem and I am happy I was able to spend a month living there. It is filled with history, culture, and a vibrant nightlife. I had such an amazing time exploring the city and it has everything you could possibly want as a foreign visitor/tourist. I will definitely go back one day, and hopefully be able to catch up with my new friends from Mente!
