I'm drunk. I'm sitting in La Cantina, this really cute restaurant and I am honestly too f***ed to get up and keep on my personal walking tour or even walk back to the hostel. It's hardly surprising though. I took an overnight bus ride and was sat next to an overweight guy who kept muscling into my space and waking me up, so I am "un poco cansada". And it's bloody hot here. Every time someone asks how I am, all I can say is "tengo calor". As a person who is terrib...

This is a long one. Don't say I didn't warn you! It's also been written over many, many days so at this point the tenses are totally out of whack. Getting To Córdoba The start of my bus trip to Córdoba was interesting. Trying to be sensible, I got to the bus station forty-five minutes before the bus was due to leave. Departure time came and went with no bus. To say I was worried, nervous and freaking out a little, would be an understatement. Obviously I thou...

I am an idiot. Why I thought it was a good idea to take a stroll along the beach with no sunscreen on, I'll never know. And then why did I stop for a quick lay out on the beach?

Mmm, well three hours later my skin was paying the price. Not anticipating to get sunburnt, I did not bring after sun treatment. Tha...

Hostel living is better than I expected - I say at destination one. Sure I haven't had a proper nights sleep due to the humidity, noise, creaky beds and fear of falling out of bed - I'm on the top bunk with no barrier!! Eeek! But this is not bothering me at all...yet. I had hostel coffee the other morning and it was actually decent for instant coffee, or maybe I'm just really caffeine deprived. Regardless yay to "free" caffeine. I love Buenos Aires. It's a truly...

I report to you from the town of La Plata. Getting here certainly was an adventure. The advice on trip advisor was not to walk to Retiro. However after my experience of getting totally ripped off by a taxi driver, plus my desire to get fit and it being a lovely day, I decided to ignore said advice. This was fine until I got to Plaza San Martin and suddenly found myself walk in circles. Not ideal. At this point I decide it's probably better to trust the map and no...
