One of the great natural wonders of the world and one of most well known and visited attractions in Latin America, the Iguazú Falls are not to be missed. If I am honest I was really only luke-warm about making the detour to visit the falls but in the end they turned out to be one of my greatest experiences in South America so far.

You don't hear a whole lot about Uruguay and it is certainly much more low key than its neighbours, but I was very curious to go and visit this black sheep of the South American family. 

A big sprawling European city in the heart of South America, Buenos Aires is a mixed bag of grit and glamour, old and new. It is a city you get to know, not by star attractions and famous monuments, but by exploring its neighbourhoods....

There is much more to Buenos Aires than just the Capital Federal area so if you’re staying for more than a few days then we can highly recommend taking a day trip to one of these excellent destinations...

We are very excited to present the first in a series of interview based articles called Coffee with Strangers, where we sit down for a coffee and a chat with local strangers in the cities and towns we visit in order to hear all about life in their city as they know it.

Lucky you! You’re planning a trip to Buenos Aires! And what a genius idea that is because you’re about to discover a fabulous city. The Paris of the South (Sorry Melbourne, you can’t claim that title), Latin America’s European gem, home of the Tango, where great wine flows freely and football players are gods.

Today was a good day. It started with a leisurely meander through the streets of Balvanera, Buenos Aires and is ending in a ménage à trois. A romantic tryst between myself, a most spectacular glass (ok, bottle) of Argentine Chardonnay and the irresistible Carlos Gardel.
