A Weekend in Buenos Aires
... and they sent us on our way. Probably around midnight. I don't really watch the time that much here. (Seems late, I know, but in Argentina they don't even tend to eat dinner until 9 or 10. Things just start later.) Val and I made our way towards the ...
MY apartment/roommates/surrounding area
... Jenni and I made it to Buenos Aires to meet up with Jennis sister, Jodi, and from here we headed down to a small beach town in Argentina, Mar del Plata. Cute town, we didn't have great weather, so didn't get up to too much. From there we went to Punta ...
Death and Football
Hola! We have arrived safely in Buenos Aires. Aerolineas managed to get us here alive though the service was somewhat minimal. We are staying in Recoleta, one of the nicer suburbs and famous for its cemetery. We are staying opposite the ...
Venice meets the Mississippi
... we had one other place on our to-do list. Buenos Aires is situated on the River Plate about 30 or 40 km from the Tigre Delta where a series of rivers/canals empty into it. The waterways of the delta create an intricate series of islands which have been ...

Amigos: les puedo contar que estoy muy emocionada tanto como cuando fui a Tibet (2007) y desde entonces que espero hacer este viaje. Se darán cuenta lo que significa para mí. Ambos son lugares únicos, con una cultura fascinante, con costumbres ...
¿Que?
I arrived in Buenos Aires after a extremely long ten hour flight. I was squeezed into a seat next to a Priest from Australia. He was probably the coolest priest I think I'll ever meet. After chatting with him for a while I learned he ...
Museums and Cowboys
... most logical next step because of its proximity (totally had no idea that Montevideo is so close to here). Or I could stay in Argentina and head north towards warmth (Iguazu). If you have any good suggestions, I'll take them all. As far as ...

Un nuevo viaje se acerca y queremos compartirlo con ustedes. Si bien es un tanto particular y en muchas cosas diferente al anterior, en lo que respecta a la esencia... es igual. En éste no intervendrán aviones, tuk tuks, automóviles ...
Buenos Aires - Central City
On day 2 in Buenos Aires we tried another Charmaine and Con tip - free city tours starting at 11am in front of the Congress building, lead by a man in a green shirt. We turned up there a bit early and hung out in a nearby cafe to wait for the man ...
Eerste week voorbij
Na bijna 2 weken geleden vertrokken te zijn is er dan nu eindelijk een weblog! Ondertussen zitten we in Puerto de Iguazu. Ik zal bij het begin beginnen. De eerste week stond helemaal in het teken van Buenos Aires. Ik had totaal geen voorstelling van waar ...
Rollin', Rollin', Rollin' on the River
Last Sunday, Cor and I took a lovely day trip to the Tigre Delta outside of Buenos Aires. The trip was arranged by the hostel where we are staying, so we met lots of new friends! The delta is north of Buenos Aires where many smaller ...
Drums and Delusions
So before I get into this week's thoughts, I have to address briefly something that got a bit of backlash in the last entry. You know, the bit about my saying that I hate people. Yup, that's the one. I'm not taking back anything I said, but I ...
Day 5 - Buenos Aires
Today we went to the Jardin Zoologico - the Buenos Aires Zoo - one of the best urban zoos we've been to (the intro video on their website is charming - no, we did not see a polar bear running around with a monkey) BA Zoo While they have the typical ...

Adios Argentina

A Nice Day to Stay In.... In? Really?
... this when you start paying attention to the people in the busses. 6) Did I already mention the dog poop everywhere? If Argentina ever hosts an Olympics or some other similar type of event, they should do a Poop 10-K - kind of like the ...
Argentinië op z'n best
Beste allemaal, Het is een tijd geleden dat ik wat getypt heb, dus leek het me op deze zonnige zaterdag (wat doe ik eigenlijk binnen?) een mooie gelegenheid weer 's een stukje te schrijven. Om aan alle onzekerheid een einde te maken: het gaat goed met ...

... 't much to see in 2 hours other than a bunch of houses and scrapped ships. My observations were as follows: I think that Tigre is Argentina´s take on towns bordering the river Thames. House after house sits on its finely manicured lawn which juts up ...
How do you say St. Patrick's Day in Espanol?
... wasn't just any Saturday night. It was St. Patrick's Day. My absolute favorite holiday of the year. And just because I was in Argentina, and had absolutely no idea if anyone there would be celebrating it, didn't mean I was going to miss it. Hell no. I ...
In Dog's Country
Von Iguazu sind wir gemütlich den Rio Paraná runtergezuckelt. Allerdings durch die Provinz Santa Fe, nicht den direkten Weg durch Entre Rios, wo die Polizei sehr korrupt sein soll und sich auf ausländische Touristenfahrzeuge spezialisiert hat. Wir ...
