http://buenos-aires-to-rio.blogspot.com/2010/11/man-tevideo.html
Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca. Thursday, 18 November 2010. Oh dear. So I got accosted by an Argentinian and a Uruguayan man tonight. Lucky me, no? Then there was the Uruguayan. He didn't speak too much English either but we managed to exchange the basics: names and where we were from. He then told me his girlfriend ('er, how you say? She is very far away! Maybe not. I think I need a new Spanish phrase. I already know ' aqua minerale sin gas, por favor. Consolation too. :P Sigh. Travel the...

Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca: Quick update from Ilha Grande
http://buenos-aires-to-rio.blogspot.com/2010/11/quick-update-from-ilha-grande.html
Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca. Friday, 26 November 2010. Quick update from Ilha Grande. That's how they say 'hi' here. Still makes me laugh whenever I hear it, as it just sounds so rude to my English ears. It's like, I'm walking down the street and suddenly someone hails down a mate with a hearty "OI! And I turn round, expecting a fight, thinking, "What, what's going on? Will try and update again soon. Ciao! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Who throws a rat? What a load of rubbish.

Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca: what a load of rubbish
http://buenos-aires-to-rio.blogspot.com/2010/11/what-load-of-rubbish.html
Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca. Saturday, 13 November 2010. What a load of rubbish. Aw man. The week's exertions are finally catching up on me methinks. I've been walking shitloads all round town in my flip flops, so now my left ankle is somehow bruised, the insides of my toes feel raw, and my lower back is killing me. Owie. Anyways, I have to check out my hostel in 8 hours. Tomorrow, I join the tour group! But hey, though this travelling malarkey is fun, it can't all be a bed of roses eh!

Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca: October 2010
http://buenos-aires-to-rio.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca. Tuesday, 26 October 2010. And so it begins. Since then I have been trying to regain that which I have lost. such as the will to live; the awareness that there is more to life than slaving away for The Man (. What man, who's the man, when's a man a man, why's it so hard to be a man. And what better way to do that than touring round Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil? I figure, if I want some. P), I'll be away for about 4 weeks. I'll be doing a small group tour.

http://buenos-aires-to-rio.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca. Monday, 29 November 2010. Who throws a rat? So, a funny thing happened to me the other night. All in all, it was a great night. There we were, partying away on a tropical paradise island, without a care in the world. What could be better? Indeed, what could top it all off? Our group undulated towards the giant rat creature to inspect it more closely. 'OOOOOH what's that? The crazy local man then lurched forwards as if to do it again but we all shouted our pr...

Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca: greetings from uruguay
http://buenos-aires-to-rio.blogspot.com/2010/11/greetings-from-uruguay.html
Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca. Wednesday, 17 November 2010. My group is 15 in total, including me. There are 8 girls and 7 guys, with an age range of about 22 to 38, from England, USA, Canada, Japan, Belgium, Germany, Sweden and Australia. It's also quite interesting that everyone except the two Swedes, who are friends, is travelling solo like me. From what I can tell, it's a nice bunch! Football stadium, which is home to the Boca Juniors football team. El Caminito bustles with cafés, mar...

Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca: copacabana beach
http://buenos-aires-to-rio.blogspot.com/2010/12/copacabana-beach.html
Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca. Wednesday, 1 December 2010. So I went down to Copacabana beach yesterday morning. It went a bit like this (see 04.44 - 04.55):. P Seriously though, it's a very wide beach so it takes a bit of time to get down to the sea and there's little to no shade; I think I burnt my feet. Where are those wet towels when you need 'em? 1 December 2010 at 12:00. 1 December 2010 at 13:29. I swear i did that ridiculous hot sand dance! I am guybrush threepwood.

Buenos Aires to Rio: steak, tango and cachaca. Friday, 12 November 2010. 24 hours in buenos aires: part 2. Right, where was I? Oh yeah, Recoleta and Barrio Norte. So, after my little jaunt at the cemetery, I ambled over to. The Best Bookshop in the World. Pretty sweet, eh? Behind the curtains in the stage area is a café, so I rested my weary feet, tucked into an empanada and sipped my first glass of Malbec. Mmm. Lewis wanted to take me to a restaurant called La Cabrera. Which is a parilla. We got there a...
