the city that never sleeps

(Here´s me really bored on a 20 hour bus ride!)
Buenos Aires is sooooo cool! And I´m not even a city person. Here´s why:

1. European flair

2. Delicious steaks that practically cut themselves (plus they´re cheap!)

3. You can drink the water and not die!

4. Beer is cheaper than (bottled) water. Plus they have real beer (Stella, Heineken) unlike every other country I´ve been in that has gross watery beer. $1us for 1L of beer!

5. Argentinians are really friendly. Friendliest people I´ve met since Colombia.

6. Half of the people walking down the street look like supermodels.

7. It seems there are 2 men for every woman (single ladies...?)

8. I haven´t been sick since I got here!!

9. They have really good ice cream. Plus these small cake things you can buy in convenience stores that are chocolate with caramel and marshmallow inside and then covered in chocolate. I think I may have found my vice!

Pretty much every night of the week people go out. The typical schedule is go out for dinner around midnight, go to a club at 3am, leave around 7am then go and have a coffee and go to work. Don´t know how people do it! I did, however, manage to go out one night... well I guess it was morning actually. Pretty weird to dance until the sun comes up!

Heading down to Patagonia in two days for some trekking and camping. Have a feeling that I will never want to leave this country...
