a view of buenos aires from the air... - Buenos Aires

BEAUTIFUL BUENOS AIRES...

As you know , i live in la paz, which is not a big city than buenos aires. so my big concern before getting to buenos aires was my location and the mood of the people.
Friends, i have to mention on this chapter that i found the most beautiful and the friendliest people here. i started to enjoy buenos aires, when i saw so big avenues, such as 9 de julio, general paz and many others...also, i found some very good people in the hostal that i stayed at. (please check out my tip about the hostel)
when i frecuentely use to get lost i asked people about how to get to...or about some other information and people in argentina are really hepful and no words to express my satisfaction to choose ARGENTINA to my second country that i`ve visited.
One of my purpose to go to argentina was of course know buenos aires, drink MATE, eat ASADO & dance TANGO (lol). also I was trying to know a beautiful beach. pitibly i couldn`t get to MAR DEL PLATA...but my time in buenos aires was really nice....
So, i have to say that getting to buenos aires is really worth and if god permits me i will definitely come back!!!
SPECIAL THANKS TO ALL MY FRIENDS WHO HELPED ME AND MAKE ME FEEL VERY CONFORTABLE...those are: GEORGYNA, ESTEFANIA. my argentinian friends. from my hostel: NACHO, SEBASTIAN AND ALL THE STAFF FROM THE HOSTEL "EL PATIO"....AND MY BOLIVIAN FRIEND, PEDRO, WHO WORKS THERE...thanks guys for the great moment that i`ve spent there...YOU WILL BE IN MY BEST MEMORIES FOREVER.

THE PINK HOUSE

yeah, i really found this mithic building very nice. i think is a good point to meet some people and talk and talk. while in this place i`ve met to a peruvian sir who were visiting as me. we talked and discuss some of our opinions about argentina, peru and of course bolivia. he told me that he was there for the second time...we both think that our countries are nice and everywhere there is something different to do and to see.
Definitely, i always say that i need to come back to argentina...it´s so wonderful....

TAKING DOWN THE FLAG

soldiers...

Around 18:00 on sunday, while waiting to meet my friend, Georgy, i saw the soldiers taking down the flag. certainly, i feel so lucky to be there and to see demostrations of patriotims...i really, enjoyed that moment...

Pros and Cons

Pros:excellent people, great asado, mate & tango
In a nutshell:definitely, i cry for argentina (feel melancolic)...will come back!!!

Thanks for the good tip. I dont do roller-coasters. I was so sick about 15 yrs ago, and vowed never again.
