~* Tango Argentina! *~
It's difficult to write when you're speechless and breathless.
Last night was one of those nights that originally inspired me to start writing LadyBohemia. I discovered something, magical, that I'd like to share with you.

Argentinian tango.
A world of it's own it is... With etiquette full of poise, grace and passion.
The men don't actually ask you to dance, with words that is. They invite with a look, oftentimes from across the room. Without a word, the couple move to each other and for that moment in time, everything else disappears. The woman follows the man's moves with total intensity, oftentimes with eyes closed, as they create their own universe, improvised and incredible.
I can imagine this to take place in a smoky club in Buenos Aires, but my little Helsinki... Thank you my darling hometown, for once again blowing my mind wider open.
A beautiful dancer Katja sat down next to me and explained. "During the dance, you need to feel that this is the only man in the world, the love of your life."
Oh it was perfection.
My friend Sissi, who actually had the idea to introduce us to Argentinian Tango, now has a new hobby. She has enrolled on tango classes.
I'm not quite sure if I'd dare... But must admit, I'd want to.
Tango can save your life, whispered Katja in my ear.
I believe her.
