ARGENTINA: Loved it so much I want to live there

by amyhenderson - last update: Mar 11, 2003

Avenida of life...
The Latino Big Apple, the Europe of the Americas, hometown to Eva Peron and the magical Maradona, BA is one of the world's great 24-hour capitals. First glance might remind you of Paris or Madrid but BA is more varied. Check out the islands and tropical vegetation of the Paraná Delta on the edge of town, and the colour and chaos of La Boca, the port area where Diego plied his trade. Running through the pulsing city heart, home to theatres, cafés and bookshops, is Corrientes, “the street that never sleeps”, and whatever time, you'll find porteños in conversation over espressos in the confiterías or cafés. You might want to take the leggy Latino lady you met to one of the style bars or flash city hotel bars for an evening of martinis and soft talk when things get too frantic.

Pros:"Magical combination of latin & european cultures"
Cons:"Economy is not too good, people are not so happy, this makes me sad..."
In A Nutshell:"Buenos Aires ROCKS, go there!"

 Nice and informative. I was in BA in 1998, economy was better then and it was safe - but far more expensive than now.
