Atlantico Hotel Villa Gesell

... a quick off ramp U-turn and we were soon on Ruta 2 South. <br><br>The day is absolutely perfect for riding, with not a cloud in the sky and probably 25degrees C, there is a bit a cross wind but nothing too major. The road surface is great and we quickly settle into a quiet 60MPH, which seems a good Sunday speed. Only the occasional car flying past doing 120 or so. <br><br>Lunch time rolls around at 1pm and we stop for a break at one of the many very well maintained and ...

... and that we would have to sleep in the street!! EVENTUALLY, we reached what seemed to be the centre of town and happened upon a hostel just behind the main street that looked really nice. With a room secured for a couple of nights we finally relaxed, took our packs off and had a sit down..........not a good idea, the bed collapsed beneath us and we were left flailing on the floor (probably looked as funny as it sounds). You could say that our first day in Villa Gesell had ...

... Enfin, je suis mechant car ils restent tres courtois et, la encore, font tout pour que je garde le meilleur souvenir de Villa Gesell et des alentours. Alejandro a le coeur sur la main, a une emission de radio locale 3h par jour a laquelle il me convie en direct et a l'improviste pour que je partage mon periple et que j'explique le concept de couchsurfing aux quelques auditeurs du ...

Villa Gesell is the smallest little beach town that we have been to yet! It has one main road that runs parallel to a beautiful beach and its full of small hotels, restaurants and summer homes. Again, since it's off season, many of the restaurants and hotels are shut now and only open for summer from December - March. But that means that we get these incredible long stretches of beach pretty much all to ourselves all day ...

We spent a few days at this coastal town, about 5 hours south of Buenos Aires, as a stopping off point to Puerto Madryn. The weather was lovely so we had a couple of very long walks on the beach, along with a few good seafood dinners. As we were off-season the town was quiet but there were enough people there for the weekend to make it feel lively enough. A really attractive place to chill out for a couple of days.

... down the Atlantic coast to Villa Gisell, a popular coastal vacation spot for Argentinians. After we found our hostel, we spent the rest of the afternoon strolling down the beach until the rain hit. We grabbed some cheese and crackers and headed back to our room... one we actually enjoy spending time in. Our room in Buenos Aires was a little funky... hot and humid and right next to the shared bathroom. Since we didn´t want to spend ...

... murdered, and all their other songs started to sound like ´cum-bye-arghhhhh´ we could take no more. The ipods came out and were cranked up to the max for the rest of the journey. When we finally escaped the asylum of the bus we found Camp Afrika next to the bus terminal and so decided to camp for the first time. The camping was fine, a little way off the road and in amongst the trees, but the rave next door ...

... and very snazzy) place even set us up with some lessons. We went to the cultural center for our first class but to our shock we found that she had set us up with Spanish dance lessons! There we stood, in the middle of a small theater full of ladies with fans and black skirts, wondering why everyone else in the class spoke Spanish so fluently. It should have been ...

... named Jesus was there and translated for us. He played guitar then Tony played a bit we soon became friends with him and Omar the hairdresser. Speaking of Jesus, since we´ve been in South America Tony has been constantly stared at by people and not just because he is ridiculously good looking. On a number of occasions people have came up to him and called him Jesus as they think he looks exactly like the standard image ...
