[ep3] 🌴 Days In My Life | Software Engineer | Buenos Aires, Argentina

And here we are: part 2 of my week working remotely from Buenos Aires, Argentina! If you watch long enough, you'll see me fail trying to do a BBQ at my airbnb's rooftop (it's bad) but I'll also show you some more fun places in this beautiful city.

ABOUT ME
🙋‍♀️ I’m Maria, an Engineering Manager at a big tech company and I’ve been coding since I was 13 years old. I love working in tech because building new things and being creative is something that makes me really happy. While on this journey, I realized how lots of questions I receive in 1:1s get repeated a lot so I decided to upload short and simple Q&A videos on TikTok which grew to a small amount of followers. For some questions, I wanted to dive deeper with longer answers which is how this channel started. Thanks for being here - my goal is to help some people out and make their lives at tech jobs more effective.

Buenos Aires looks amazing! I've always wanted to travel as a SWE, you've totally convinced me

[@techmentormaria]

You should absolutely go! It's a fantastic location to visit :)

[@edinburghrules]

Buenos Aires is really beautiful, I had no idea it looked much more 'European' than the rest of the Americas. Great vlog btw!

[@techmentormaria]

It felt like a city in Europe tbh!

[@Sunflower-kk5ul]

I was born in Buenos Aires ❤ it’s a beautiful city I agree 😊

[@techmentormaria]

It's really lovely!

[@misscolorville]

wow !! so prettyy

[@techmentormaria]

Definitely a skill to ignore work problems in my free time 🕵️

[@cholietta]

Buenos Aires is a very beautiful city 🤍

[@bellainbuenosaires]

Enjoyed the video! I love BA

[@techmentormaria]

Thank you! I can’t wait to explore Argentina more ✨

[@riteshkumar4401]

Your vlogging sense is really commendable totally loved it . 🙏🇮🇳

[@techmentormaria]

Thank you ✨

[@gaelferrari5856]

Buenos aires is top, i hope you enyojed your trip!

[@techmentormaria]

I loved it!

[@franinge1303]

wow enjoy watching the city. I am from Buenos Aires and studying mechanical engineering. However I have knowledge about programming. The question is what tech are you working? use JS maybe?

[@isabellaK6000]

I Love your vids!

[@techmentormaria]

Welcome to the channel ✨

[@nuamanshabir6122]

so good❤❤❤

[@techmentormaria]

Thank you ✨

[@veyselkaracay]

I'm waiting for you in istanbul, izmir, antalya to spend a small part of your life :)

[@techmentormaria]

I was actually in all if those places 10 years ago and it’s sooo pretty. I loved Istanbul!

[@veyselkaracay]

@@techmentormaria you deleted my comment :). Did you think I was advertising another channel :))) I never had such a thought, I shared it maybe it will help you :D

[@CraigMine]

You really should make use of the 4k@60fps that the iphone offers :))

[@techmentormaria]

I shoot at 4k@30fps because I typically shoot with many different cameras and moving them all to 60fps would be craaazy for my storage space. I doubt most people notice 60fps anyways

[@CraigMine]

@@techmentormaria ahh okay, at least for me it's noticeable in shots where you move the cam from one side to another when you show something

[@dandindejesus4907]

will you cry when you leave Argentina or will Argentina cry for you?

[@techmentormaria]

I am coming back very soon ✨

[@tarek7451]

Is it not dangerous at all? I’d love to visit the city but i’m a bit afraid of it.

[@techmentormaria]

I’ve traveled solo all over South America and while there are many places where I felt unsafe, Buenos Aires always felt really safe to me.

[@dissonantpulse]

Buenos Aires is the safest city in all Latinoamerica

[@pampi89]

I'm from Buenos Aires and it's really safe. Of course you must be cautious like in every big city

[@fotoyartefotoyarte1044]

for people planning to come to Argentina, just keep in mind only CABA (Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires: Autonomous City of Buenos Aires) looks like this, GBA (Gran Buenos Aires: "Big Buenos Aires", which includes "conurbano bonaerense"), AMBA (Area Metropolitana of Buenos Aires: Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires) and the Province of Buenos Aires are quite different; a lot of poverty, insecurity, trash in the streets, no sewers, no asphalt, etc. In Buenos Aires Province in general you have little towns that are more rural, some of them are nice some not so much; obviously Buenos Aires as a Province is a huge territory with a lot of landscape and economic diversity, just so you know

[@techmentormaria]

Thank you! Yes, I feel like this is the same in NYC. Most people only go to Manhattan and certain parts in Brooklyn when they visit.

[@fotoyartefotoyarte1044]

@@techmentormaria nice; I am currently learning programming (just starting); I`m probably quite old for a carreer change (35); I know this is a very personal question but I´m curious (a lack of answer will be taken as understandable); what language/ sofware industry are you on?

[@martingaray185]

Es increible como el unico comentario de mierda sobre Argentina tenia que ser de un argentino.Debemos de ser el unico pais del mundo que hace estas cosas tan autodestructivas. Ademas tu comentario no es real, un area tan grande como el AMBA no es ni "rica" ni "pobre", sino que es eclectica como cualquier area suburbana.

[@fotoyartefotoyarte1044]

@@martingaray185 al contrario, pensar que argentina es lo mejor del mundo y que argentina "siempre va a ser igual" como dicen todos mis conocidos cuando hablamos del futuro de argentina es parte de lo que nos lleva a estar estancados; mi comentario sólo apunta a que CABA es una excepción total en argentina, nada más

[@martingaray185]

@@fotoyartefotoyarte1044 rey, nunca dije que argentina sea lo mejor del mundo. Y como el video tampoco trata sobre que argentina sea lo mejor del mundo, tu mensaje muestra lo que todos sabemos, y que el peor enemigo de Argentina somos los propios argentinos. O viste algun video sobre lugares hermosos de Brasil en donde algun brasileño diga "todo bien, pero ese video no muestra las miserias que hay en nuestro pais" o algun video sobre Mexico donde algun mexicano diga "este video no muestra que en otras parte del pais hay gente siendo asesinada por el narco". No, nos los viste porque ningun pais se cree ni lo mejor ni lo peor del mundo. Y no es verdad que lo unico lugar donde hay buena calidad de vida en Argentina sea en CABA, esa es una vision centralista porteña, te invito a que pasees por los miles de pueblos y ciudades medias de Argentina donde tenes una calidad de vida enviadle, sino no se explicaria porque hay miles de inmigrantes que dejan sus paises y van a vivir a ellas. En suma, pobablemente tu mensaje sea la otra cara de la moneda de creerse los mejores, y es creerse los peores. No somos ni una cosa ni la otra rey.

[@eulalioestevez3404]

It is ironic that in the country in which allgedly the best beef was breeded the locals can only afford it by paying it in installments. Still Argentina it's an amazing nation. They deserve a better future. Hope everything goes well in october.

[@martymctirri3227]

10 years living in Argentina made me know that this type of comment always comes from "neighboring countries" full of resentment towards Argentina...I want you to know that Argentina has the highest meat consumption in America (in per capita terms) .

[@eulalioestevez3404]

@@martymctirri3227 Not necessarily, we who l❤ve Argentinean Culture would rather see a great nation surface again specially when bonds are tight no matter what. Your comment , however, reveals little tolerance towards justified criticism. You might as well be a Die Hard "Perroncho" enthusiast in the same token. Saludos😉

[@MiguelPerez-hd9gc]

Hi, please don't take offense,but you have to really you have to know what asado in Argentina really is ( don't call it barbecue) .Is like a religion... ( Not only sausage... The wrong kind by the way. If you're gonna stay for a longer period of time, I suggest you get in touch with Nicki posts travel stuff. Good luck.

[@techmentormaria]

Good suggestions!

[@ExplorerWebDev]

3:30 I'm trying to figure out why this dessert say's Scottish, can't see a thing in the ingredients that has anything about Scotland on it, just the word.

[@LM-65786]

Hey! Your vlogs are underrated. They are awesome! More vlogs like this are totally appreciated. Love from Norway

[@techmentormaria]

Thank you so much for the encouragement!

[@mauron5250]
