Buenos dias people - today I am one very very happy lady as it´s been confirmed that I have my ticket for Glasto (Patrick I owe you a very very big drink). It´s going to be the best ending for my extremely long holiday.Talking of which... Buenos Aires was fantastic. This city is so European in feel and style and you could quite as easily be in Paris or Barcelona or Madrid. Basically BA is huge but split up into lots of Barios (districts). And after ou...

Hey people this is just a quickie so I can update my location on the map, and so that you all know I´m still alive and that I´ve made it to BA which everyone is telling me is one of the greatest cities in the world... (we shall see).Well over the past few days I´ve been a very bad tourist. All I´ve seen is the inside of clubs, bars and hotels (oh and a night bus) - but hey we´ve had a great time drinking and after the bad luck of bre...

Well it´s certainly been a week of highlights and lowlights (and I´m not talking hair cuts although I think one will be needed soonish).

I´d say that for a wine-guzzling vegetarian, Mendoza is THE place to go in Argentina. We have been here for almost a week and I am finding it hard to drag myself away - the place could quite easily become home. To put you in the picture, Mendoza is effectively in the desert but as all the wide streets are lined with huge sycamore trees you don´t even notice the heat and spend hours wandering around and stopping in one of the many street cafes for a co...

Hi peoplewell here I am in North West Argentina- Salta to be precise. This town/city is very near Chile/Bolivia boarder so it´s quite indigenious and feels off the beaten track. It´s also pretty cool - lots of plazas and cute coloniel buildings (painted in pinks and yellows) and great restaurants and it´s very own micro-brewery producing Salta Cerveza (team H2O you know what to expect next!!), plus a great climate - we´ve lost the unbearab...
