Buenos Aires is without doubt the best city I have ever been to. It is European in style but everything is very cheap. There is so much to write about my two weeks here that I will split it into sections. 1. A typical 24 hours in Buenos Aires... Wake up at 4pm, take a shower and hang around drinking Quilmes (beer) until around 11pm. Then have brunchinner at a local restaurant.

I am now travelling with 3 Danish guys who I met when they were getting arrested by corrupt police officers in Rio! We made a two hour bus journey from Rio to the port town of Angra Dos Reis.
