[Tango-L] Estimates about the number of foreigners in milongas -Was: Re: Leaving for BsAs tomorrow

[Keith]

Victor,

After a number of pithy comments about Thursday nights at Nino Bien and the large number of tourists who visit, I was a happy to 
hear that you enjoyed it. I also love Nino Bien, not only because of the great ambience but also because everyone is so kind and 
courteous. Tourist are not stupid, they may go the first time because of its reputation but they return because it's such a great 
place to enjoy an evening of Tango. A lot of the other milonga organisers could learn a lot from Nino Bien.

>I went to Niño Bien both Thursday nights for the two weeks I was in Argentina a couple of months ago. My dances were split about 
50/50 foreigners/porteñas, although I am not counting the dances with my wife on the first night. At Canning, Gricel and 
Glorietta most of the dances I got (say 75%) were with porteñas. There were some great dancers at all those Milongas and some 
terrible ones, but mostly in between the two extremes. I really loved Niño Bien because the organiser was very thoughtful about 
placing my wife at a good table and remembered her the second week and offered her the same table, a real gentlemen. Also, for 
the night I was there with her he made sure that although we were on different tables we were close enough to keep in touch with 
each other and dance together when we wanted. No wonder that Milonga has such a great reputation and has been running so long.
