Hmmm I seem to be getting the locations mixed up. i´m writing this in Salta but it´s about Mendoza, hope that makes sense. Anyway, after a 17 hour night bus from freezing Bariloche we arrived in hot hot hot Mendoza where it was roughly 34 degrees. Bit of a shock to the system after the snow capped mountains but a chance to give the ol summer clothing a bit of an airing. First hostel we found was pretty cheap but when we arrived we got really bad vibes as al...

Hola chicos, yes thats right, were learning spanish here in Bariloche. Sorry for the horrendous punctuation, cant work out this keyboard at all so no exclamation marks or apostrophes here. Arrived over a week ago last Thursday and we re staying in a hostel called 1004 which is on the 10th floor of a huge builing near the square.

Hey Guys!!! So, here it is, the eagerlly awaited first blog entry!!! Time: 21:16, Location: Garden House Hostel, San Telmo, Buenos Aires. Arrived after a very long and very cramped journey on DELTA airlines with a charming 8hr wait in Atlanta sandwiched between an 8hr and 10hr flight respectively. Fun times were had trying to find a sleeping position that didn`t leave either a limb completely numb or your neck completely twisted, but we arrived safe into B.A ...
