I traveled from my house in Mar del Plata to my research site at Waikiki Beach, which is about five miles, or eight kilometers, away.
I've traveled from Buenos Aires to Mar del Plata. Mar del Plata is about 260 miles, or 420 kilometers, south of Buenos Aires.
I took the public bus, which is called the colectivo.
I needed to buy some gladd bottles for my research, so I visited a tienda de envases, which is a store that only sells bottles and containers!
