Dont cry for me Argentina, too loud, too hung over

Text written in: English

Caught an overnight bus into BA, and have landed at The Clan, a great place in Centro Buenos Aries filled with friendly staff and people from all over. This city is amazing.
It is posh and clean in Recoletta, where I saw craft markets, the modern art gallery and Evita´s grave.
I enjoyed a beer on the footpath in vibrant Pollermo after some window shopping.
The antiques fair on Sunday with tango shows in the cobbled streets of San Telmo was also fun.
I visited La Boca, famed for its art and colourful streets, and experienced the almost religious atmosphere when BOCA Juniors beat Capital 4-1. Crazy.
Also saw Racing Club beat close rivals Arsenal 1-0, witnessed a peaceful protest in Plaza de Mayo, did some tourist shopping along Florida, ate all I could at Siga LA Vaca by the waterfront, had a great BBQ in the Hostel, went to a bunch of different pubs and danced all night to London DJ Pete Tong (which in latin american spanish actually means big blowjob)
All of this so far and without drastic incident, luckier than some i´ve met and spoken to.
