Hi everyone, it's been a while since i have written the last blog.
So many things happened and i get a little bit demotivated.
In Buenos Aires my card got stolen and it spoiled the rest of my stay in this country.
I am back on track and decided to live the most of this trip for sure.
I am still waiting for my new card to come.
Thanks to mum who help me by sending me the money via Western Union in order to continue my route.
After Chili though i flew to Argentina.
I have been first in Buenos Aires where i stay a week, visiting the city which is massive.
very European in the Architecture and in the way of life.
I did went to a Tengo class but it wasn't so exciting.
It was in a "Milonga" at La Viruta in Palermo but i left to early to see the very good Tango Dancer who obviusly arrive very late around 1 to 2 AM.
Even if i have been robed in that city, it is a very enjoyable place to leave, i thing that i've just benn not lucky, because it could have happened in any other big city like Paris.
I moved then to Bariloche in the south of Argentina just at the begining of Pentagonia.
It it a lovely little city by a huge lake and surrounding by beautifull mountains.
It is the Argentinian holidays place for snow skiing, it look like any other ski station.
I had a good timr there because i have met a bunch of party people.
We use to go after dinner to this Irish pub, the Wilkinny for a couple of drinks and dance.
Most of all backpackers were there.
From there i moved to the north by bus (almost 20 hours) to Mendoza, Cordoba then Salta before comoing back to Buenos aires to take my plane to Lima in peru.
Machu Pitchu was awsome and Lago Titi caca too.
Peru is very rural country and people are living in very poor contidion but they are not starving.
It is a very beautifull country and you have this contrast between the north more desertic and the south a bit more green.
I was a bit dizzy at the begining because of the altitude but after a while i was ok.
As i was really close to Bolivia i decided to come and have a look, so i took a bus first to Copacabana which is a little village by the lake Titi caca where i spent one night then continue to La Paz where i am now.
i never been so high in my whole life, more than 4000 meters above the level of the sea.
It is amazing here to see this city surounded by high snowed mountains.
The houses are built all over the hills in red brick, no painting and most of the time not finished.
In the centre it is so busy, people everywhere trying to sell any kind of stuff.
The traffic is so dense too, you can here all the time horning cars struggling to find there way.
That's it for today, i still have to download the picture of Mendoza, Cordoba and Bolivia too.
I have got less then to weeks now here in south America before going to New Zelande; but till then we keep in touch.
