The Uber driver in BA was very sweet and serious at the same time, from Venezuela. She even gave me Venezuelan cash since I told her that was one out of the three countries I wasn't able to visit in South America. We arrived to my hostel but there was no sign outside so I was very skeptical because it looked really trashy and didn't see a doorbell. We both looked up the address and it was the right place, so I got out and found the doorbell and someone answered and finally unlocked the door. It wasn't even that late, around 8pm when it was just getting dark. I walked up and it was this Asian looking guy who informed me they were fixing the sign outfront, He checked me in and gave me the lay of the land with a map and then showed me to my room which was right there in the front with the reception. I didn't like that because I really needed sleep after Sao Paulo and asked if there was another room. The whole hostel was very old with really tall ceilings, wooden doors, floors and keys from the 19th century. For the bathrooms, you had to pull a chain and it flushed (similar to Sao Paulo bathroom that you pushed a button and it was so strong and loud flushing down). Thankfully he was able to get me a room in the back with a bigger bathroom. The first room literally had the shower right in the toilet area, so you were basically showering next to the toilet. The second room had an actual bathtub and was much more comfortable. I went to get some dinner to make since I didn't feel like finding a restaurant and made some chicken tenders on a skillet and got a bottle of wine. I ate and looked up what I wanted to do in Buenos Aires and realized there was a lot to see and do so I really had to come up with a plan but turns out I didn't follow the plan. Thankfully that Italian friend I met in Peru had been in Buenos Ares for 3 months and had a whole list of restaurants and bars to see. So the next day I slept in just in time for breakfast and then walked around the park that was near my hotel. Turns out there was a festival going on and so I of course went because there was barbecue with the most delicious looking meat and wine tastings and olive oils. But I ended up getting this cream for my face since I was noticing more wrinkles and getting worried about it. Then I walked around all the parks following the coast and there were tons of people walking, running, roller blading and biking around. It somewhat reminded me of Rio but not beach style, more European style. It was really sunny and beautiful out, lots of statues and fountains around, many people out and about. I arrived at the Japanese garden that was also very beautiful and then went back to the festival to meet up with the guy I met in Peru with Lauren, Marco from Switzerland. We got barbecue and wine and started the drinking—the beef sandwhich was delicious, and of course, same with the wine. Once we were done there we got an Uber to the downtown area since I wanted to see the market and pink house (government area). We sat outside the plaza and got another bottle of wine and sandwiches came with that. It was really relaxing chatting and people watching as it was getting towards the evening, we were getting somewhat tipsy. We went to the most famous restaurant for my first steak, but before stopped at a bar since the restaurant wasn't open yet—they don't open until around 8 or later…very European/South American style. The restaurant we went to was very fancy and decorated in a lot of flags and national sports decorations. We ordered another bottle of wine and got some cheese appetizer that was delicious and then the steak came and it was super juicy and absolutely amazing!!!! Best steak I had ever tasted. Then we got an uber back towards my hostel in Palermo and walked around to find a bar. It was somewhat quiet, maybe because it was a Sunday night. We find a place and ordered a beer and then went back to his place to smoke. I was so tired and passed out and then slept more that day, did some yoga and then got my laundry organized to drop off so I went to drop it off and then stopped in a coffee shop to relax. I met up with another guy friend from Peru, Lobitos who's from Argentina. We went to a couple of bars and I had told Marco I would meet up with him again to get steak so we met up at this really fancy place near the water and got a bottle of wine and steaks of course (which came with a corn dish that I absolutely loved). Then we went to a bar that was open on the list of recommendations as there weren't that many bars open for some reason, on a Monday as well. Got some fancy drinks that were on fire and then went to bed. I slept in long enough to miss breakfast and then got my things packed up as I had to leave the next morning, my last night in Buenos Aires, went by quickly. I was planning on doing all these tours and that didn't happen. I walked around this other barrio and went to this restaurant that had smoked pork sandwiches that was delicious and craft beer. Then went to a coffee shop and relaxed a bit before meeting up with Marco again for our last steak dinner. We ended up going to another fancy restaurant and it was also very delicious! Then I wanted to bar hop Ince it was my last night so we went to this area in Palermo and went to a fun young bar and then a speakeasy that was awesome. At first I didn't know if it was the right place but then we were brought to the back with another couple and it was very dark, couple romantic style with live jazz playing. It was very relaxing, we ordered a drink and then went to another bar that was somewhat fancy. And then back to another bar to get my last wine. I had to wake up at 6am and went to bed at 1am so very late. It was tough leaving Buenos Aires like that. I was tired and wined and dined OUT—-so much wine and food was fun but also tiring. I got an uber to the airport of course and unfortunately it smelt straight up like cigarrettes. That's the other thing was that I was smoking so many cigs with Marco every night which probably effected me. There was a good amount of traffic but thankfully arrived to the airport on time and I was so exhausted and hungover it sucked but thankful to get to a new place.
