I am heading to South America early November 2009. I will be meeting my girlfriend in Buenos Aires Nov 6 for 11 days, but want to travel by myself (male mid- 20s) for 6 days prior to meeting her in BA. Can anyone give some good options as to where I should go before hand traveling alone? Patagonia, Peru, Bolivia? I don't know much about any of the places, I am just looking to check out a new Country/city for 6 days before traveling to BA. Once in BA, I am still to plan, so advise on things to do, places to stay, etc. would be great!
Thanks!

Iguazu is 18 hours away, then you could check out uruguay. just 1 hour on the boat, from BA.

also santiago chile is 21 hours away. and medoza is between the two locations.
if you take night buses you can maximise your free time.

I have 2 days in mid-November that I would like to plan a get-a-way from Buenos Aires. I will be heading to BA from Mendoze, but am not sure where to go next. I considered going to Punta del Este, Uruguay, but this is at least a 7 hour trip. Do you know of a 3 hour trip that I can do for 2 nights and then head back to BA? Perhaps a beach town close to BA or a hiking resort near a lake or closer to some mountains?

in close proximity , uruguay is all i can tell you from my own experience, 1 hour to colonia by boat, or 3 hours to montevideo by boat. sorry i dont know the good beach locations there.
