Back in Buenos Aires for 2 nights before heading sud for some camping in El Calafate and then Bariloche.

coming off of 5 spectacular days in Villa Carlos Paz (http://bit.ly/7xT2kL), a place I didn’t even know existed 5 days ago. Very good times.

Ohhhh, yeah. Right. This thing.
Oh that’s right, I WAS keeping a blog, wasn’t I. Well, I was supposed to be. Hey what can I say, not working and living in South America can be just such a time consuming task, who has the time to blog? Actually, after the first post, amongst the many great responses and words of encouragement (as well as words of “please get a job already and rejoin us here in the real...
So much funukah
need quick refresher on wattage and voltage when traveling. Have plug adapter but not a converter. Don’t want to fry valuable electronics.
OK so Burger King in Argentina. Slightly better, but turns out to be pricier than Canada and consumption-to-regret time frame not reduced
RT @3rdparty: Ok. Seriously. Why can’t I buy a network HDD (NAS) that rsync’s to the cloud/S3? @wuala @crashplan @LaCieStoreUSA @back …
Caved into searching “real time results” on Tiger Woods. Now resisting the urge to comment. Not on Tiger, but on the idiocy of people

Pretty interesting. http://bit.ly/8LKn4O @zifkin made me think of some ideas of yours, pre IVI days.
Apparently shut down Sundays in Beunos Aires are the norm. Probably doesn’t hurt that the city is being blanketed in the calmest, warm rain
#Tiempo loco in #BA today. Humid, then gorgeous and sunny. Now thunder and the skies look like they are about to unleash hell.
Everyone in Palermo is clapping, banging cymbals and honking horns?

off to the Microcentro for a key meeting (fingers crossed), and then Paraguay 909 to try to get the fried BB fixed. Should be interesting.
hooray for overwhelmed by social media Day 2!
BA: 14 interesting/ridiculous things I've noticed...
Alright we’re off and running now, Post #3. In trying to NOT be the guy who puts a cute little piece of Spanish in each post title, I had to tinker with the above a couple of times.
Now for this post, I tried my best to not have it read like a Lonely Planet Buenos Aires (which I did indeed buy before the trip) but that may not have happened. I’ve been through the guidebook...
Post Numero Dos: 2 weeks in BA
Buenos tardes. For those of you that don’t “Habla Espagnol”, that means good evening.
Alright now, well let’s see. First off, lots of great feedback from many of you on the first post – love the encouragement. Also, big thanks to those of who decided to give me shit for flying to the other side of the planet in order to write a travel blog about… blogging (at least so far). No photos,...
First Post: Hola from BA. Yes, I am still alive
Hola chicos, que tal? Good morning from Buenos Aires. Alright so here we go right, it begins. Not the adventure in South America. No, as many of you know, that has been on for a little bit of time now. I arrived just over 2 weeks ago today and I will say this and get it out of the way right off the bat: everything is going really well down here (and no G, I’m not living in the slums and...
