  • Cordoba

    It just so happened that I start all my articles about Argentina with the associations that the name of the city evokes in me. Cordoba is no exception, for me it’s some kind of “cow” :) The funny thing is that this coincidence is probably no coincidence: even before colonization, these lands were inhabited by tribes of Indians engaged in cattle breeding and farming. ...
  • Mar del Plata

    Very often acquaintances write to me: "What is warm to you there? I suppose you are swimming in the ocean ?!" And in general they often ask: "Is it possible to swim in Buenos Aires?" - Yes, and they ask about the sea! Is it warm! I want to cry from such questions ... Because in Argentina as a whole, it’s not warm for 5 months even in the northern ones (we are talking about the southern hemisphere - the opposite is true! ...
  • El Calafate

    I traveled to El Calafate with only one purpose: to look at Perito Moreno, one of the largest glaciers in the world. But as a result, I stayed in the city for a whole week.

And the amazing nature of the surroundings falls in love with this city for everyone who comes here. ...
  • Buenos Aires

    At the word "Buenos Aires" images of tango appeared in my head in squares, colored facades of buildings, a huge metal flower, sipping mate, heat-stained Argentines; the taste of marbled beef with wine was felt on the summer porches of the cafe ... Surprisingly, all this turned out to be true! The squares really dance in the evenings of tango. ...
  • Tierra del Fuego

    “If you go to Chile and Argentina,” I thought, “then you should see these countries in all their diversity.” So in my route appeared the Perito Moreno Glacier, the road along the Chilean Andes of Carretera Australia, Easter Island, Iguazu Falls, Patagonia and, of course, Tierra del Fuego. I came to the edge of the earth rugged by the fjords in order to follow the way of the sailors through the labyrinth of the straits, where ships have perished for centuries. ...
  • Salt

    Speaking of the province of Salta, and this is a province, and not just one city, I personally do not think anything clear and worthwhile. Salta is something salty on the tongue. There is nothing remarkable for a Russian tourist - call the region whatever you like. There are no wineries like in Mendoza, penguins and glaciers of Tierra del Fuego, and the province is located far away from the paths trodden by European tourists. ...
  • San Carlos de Bariloche

    Usually when traveling, I tend to get to know the most colorful and authentic corners of each country. Therefore, San Carlos de Bariloche, which is called the "Argentine Switzerland", at first did not bode well for me. However, it turned out that my fears were in vain. Of course, Bariloche really has the most popular ski resort in Latin America, so he got such a flattering name. ...
  • Mendoza

    Mendoza - just like that, through the “c” in the Spanish manner, and not through the “z”, as in the Latin spelling Mendoza. I don’t know about you, but the name reminds me of the name of some heroine of a soap opera, something like a Mercedes. Before my trip to Argentina, I had hardly heard anything about the city. So, Mendoza - the city and capital of the province of the same name, is located west of Buenos Aires at a distance of about 1000 km. ...
  • Ushuaia

    The southernmost city in the world beckoned me for a long time. The names "Tierra del Fuego" and "Patagonia" seemed incredibly romantic to me and at the same time infinitely distant. There is some logic in this - on the world map there are not so many cities located so far from us. Arriving in Ushuaia, I noticed that many tourists share my romantic moods. ...

  • Sucre

    Sucre is the most exquisite South American city I have been to. Snow-white houses, red tiled roofs, proud straight streets, European-style squares, magnificent churches with incredibly beautiful altars. All this struck me to the core. And most importantly: there is life in Sucre, it is not a museum of colonial history in the open. ...
  • Porto Alegre

    I always wanted to visit Brazil. This is all Rio de Janeiro and the hot climate, as it seemed to me before. The last word of the previous sentence is the key. Because I did not know anything about Brazil until I came to work and study in Porto Alegre. And as I found out, I did not let this country out of my thoughts more. ...

  • Sao paulo

    Sao Paulo is a magical cultural cauldron. The most populated city in the southern hemisphere, the atmosphere of which is created by such different Brazilians, Japanese, numerous Africans, Europeans desperately whitening in the crowd. For me it is an exciting city, impossible, crazy, dirty, cruel, beloved. The capital of business, industry, design, universities, advertising agencies, money and frustrations of the entire magical South American continent. ...
