Yeah, when I was younger, I would have. But as I have gotten older, I have gotten more rules-oriented. (Can't even believe it's ME saying THAT!) If they have a rule about always being with others from the group and they ask that the professor in charge always knows where everyone is, I'll probably be the most likely person to follow said rule......... I'll try to convince the professor that I am well traveled and if I could travel all over poor sections of Nairobi on public transportation by myself, I think I can get myself between Belgrano and the teatro Colón without mishap. It might be a question of the Virginia university's insurance liability if something were to happen to me........

I'm sure that with two words the teacher will let you go even if you formaly can't. But I think is imposible that you have all the time organized in group activities, you will likely have free time all days.
poli what do you think, sincerely, of the public transport we have here?

It's not a question of whether we have free time or not. We will definitely have free time. It's that the university (in Virginia) will not allow its students to do things alone. They will require us to be with other students from the same program all the time. If I want to go to the opera, I'd have to find someone else willing to go with me....
