Buenas Aires, Urban Bliss

28 hours by bus from Florianapolis to Buenos Aires!
And i´m not talking about those rediculous first-class buses available in Argentina. The only way is Brazilian style ghetto-jelapi bus featuring a leaky bathroom and a Banderas movie marathon (Zorro 1 &2, the 13th Warrior... not even Desperado!) All is ameliorated when I meet up with Paula and Violetta, two way cool girls from Buenos Aires. That´s what happens when you rock the warriors shirt...its a catalyst for meeting interesting people. The deal was sealed when they spooted Diplo on my Ipod...classy! They rep Buenos Hard, working as the dynamic duo of graphic deisgn projects throughout the Argentinean music world. More on that later.
Also on the bus was an English fellow by the name of James, whose from Manchester, lives in London, and supports Everton...Football fans respond now. The man was relaying stories of Debauchery unleashed by the brits in Floripa (other side of the island, unfortunately) And we got beds at HI Tango City. You can never go wrong with HI in terms of basic sanitary standards, and the location was fine. Enough of that...
BUENOS AIRES IS A KILLER CITY:







Buenos has it all:

The music scene is strong, Amazing graffs and public arts, Parties that last until 6 am at least, delicious steaks which cost less than a tall late at Starbucks, Avant garde architecture, Beautiful women, World-class (and cheap) wine, crazy hostel scene, etc etc., more stories to come.
