Return to Craigslist

My friend Lovett is spending the summer in Buenos Aires, and I have begun a mission to visit her at some point in August (wisdom teeth surgery...you're getting pushed back again). However, this potential visit poses some serious obstacles. Okay, basically just money.
I'm working at an unpaid internship all summer, and due to my lack of profits, my parents are bound to be less than generous with possible donations/sponsorships toward my BA adventure. Therefore Lovett and I have hatched a plan that has take me to a place I fear and avoid like guys from New Jersey...
Craigslist.
I've already expressed my sentiments about personal ads on Craigslist, and now I've explored the job section. While I've come across a few potential babysitting gigs that I may be able to handle, I was more interested by a man who was seeking essentially a young white woman who could teach him how to meet and talk to other single white females. This ad seemed like it could get me into some situations reminiscent of Silence of the Lambs or Hitch. Who said this job market is busted?
