That's what I call a very long Sunday...very long... I spent the last two weeks running all over Asia with stops in Hong Kong, Shanghai, Saigon and Bangkok. And if you are asking, yes it was business oriented...and indeed, I don't blog on those days...I had a lot of meetings...saw many friends...had way too many lunches and dinners....and after dinner parties...and did the full shopping list to bring back to home. Left home with a bag of 20kg, coming back with double that amount...you find a lot in Argentina....but there are way too many things we simply don't find in Buenos Aires! I'm not a big fan of sitting on planes for 28 hours in a row..or more...did it, will do it again next April...but not this time. Today, I'm on for another "fun" marathon. It's ... read more

Time flies at a speed I couldn't even imagine once we arrived in Buenos aires in July. Imagine, next week it will be already three months that we arrived. For those who are wondering, we already have our flights to leave the country end of June 2013. We love Argentina, but for multiple reasons....the current economic climate being one of them, I don't see myself settling here for the long term. Once we leave, I will do a full blog about the pros and cons of living in Argentina, and trust me, there is a lot to write about, but now is not the time to do it. We are very well settled in our little flat, ready for the swimming pool to open with the warmer days coming pretty soon. The climate here is actually ... read more

This is the first of a serie of three blogs coming in the next few days. If you are wondering, yes, we are having an amazing time...in Buenos Aires...around Buenos Aires...and actually all over Argentina! Argentina is not a gem, it's a mine of gems...left, right, up...down, everywhere we are digging for our adventures, it's all...simply brillant, simply amazing! The week-end is over...I'm slowly going through the pictures....and these souvenirs will stay forever...trust me...next is way better....but for now, we give you San Antonio de Areco. To make it easy I rented a car for the week-end starting Friday just after lunch. First surprise, we landed a 4 categories upgrade. It first didn't make me happy, but we had no choice, they had nothing else available. I tend to love to stay below the radar in ... read more

It's already time for Tiffany and Leslie first week of school holidays in Argentina...and as the country is so impressive...we are starting slowly to push our discoveries a little further than Buenos Aires. As you are aware, I spent my last two weeks working in Africa. Leslie and Tiffany have been under the great care of Ines while I was away, and she is also joining us for our discoveries of Argentina now that I'm back "home". I have also to thank Mercredes and Sergi from Koh Lipe who introduced me few months ago to Puerto Madryn and Peninsula Valdes. Thanks guys, missing you! Due to the amount of pictures...and experiences we have lived over the last few days, I've decided to do two blogs, one of Puerto Madryn, and yes...one more impressive of the Peninsula ... read more

It was last Saturday...and we've done so many thing since that week-end...I thing this kind of comment can summarize properly our new lifestyle in Argentina... So we made it easy on the 2 hours and half to Montevideo on the Saturday afternoon. The bus ride is smooth, and the scenery is looking pretty much like any country side scenery in Luxembourg where I grew up...just with a pretty low density of population. For two days in Uruguay, we took boats...we took the bus ride between Colonia and Montevideo...and we walked...a lot... I never actually went to Montevideo! I went 6 years ago for Christmas to Punta del Este...landed in Montevideo airport, rented a car and drove to Punta del Este....bear in mind, I wasn't very impressed by the place...it has the reputation to be a hip ... read more
