Ok so yes I have been slack in keeping everyone informed of my time in South America....  The first week involved meeting my Argentinian friend who I met in Bolivia and chilling out with her and few of her mates plus trying to do a pre-course task that we were given. Was good to finally get here and actually chat in Spanish face to face. Th...

We have just spent the day trawling through every market buenos aires has to offer - a bit like Portobello, but on the other side of the world. We arrived here in the early hours of this morning,after a fawlty towers style flight on the highly unreccomendable Aerolineas Argentinas.  Beware - when you order a vegetarian meal, it comes with h...

If I was to count the number of times we have gone up and down Santa Fe street on one hand. I would run out of fingers. Everything and anything you need to see or even a place to eat, seem to be located on Santa Fe, which is quite a trendy long street. If you want some shopping come to Santa Fe, if you want trendy small cafes, come to Santa...

      The next morning the stressful evening was all forgotten, as I had finally arrived in Buenos Aires, a city that everyone raves about & I soon saw why! It's infectiously vibrant, busy but chilled, up all night dancing, with loads of museums & art galleries, parks & cafes, tango shows & salsa classes,...

Back to BA for one night before we catch our flight upto Quito to start the month at the Santa Martha Animal rescue centre. http://www.santamartharescue.org/

OK...1st day back in BA traffic. Car in right lane turns left in front of several others going straight and the car in the left lane turns right. Pretty standard according to Bryan. Certain cabs are trustworthy and others not. Matt and I went to the nearby park for a good time and so that he could ride his bike. This park is way better than Cent...

Ola Everyone, I have just arrived in my hostel at Buenos Aires after a very long journey. As most of you know, British Airways overbooked the flight and offered me ridiculously large sums of money to delay my trip by a day and I couldn't refuse. The flight was delayed by a couple of hours and we stopped off at Sao Paolo Airport, Brazil for about...

If you find you cannot read it on the Travelpod website here, maybe you can try to read it on my website (supposed that you cab read Chinese :) http://travel.saricie.com/SouthAmerica2006/Tango.htm Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------ 到了阿根廷&...

We stayed in Buenos Aires for more than a week. We lined up 10 hours of private tango lessons with a fantastic couple, Jose and Viky (http://www.joseyviky.com.ar/). We spent our mornings in lessons, our afternoons walking in different neighborhoods exploring the city, and our nights dancing at milongas. We found Buenos Aires to be the most touri...
