It feels good to finally do nothing in Salta and Cordoba. It is actually a bit embarrassing when people ask me what there is to do in these towns because I really don´t know. For my 26th birthday I watched English soccer and ate steak (yes, it was the size of a boogie board) with English and Australian guys and met some locals who were supposedly taking us to the ¨best bar¨ in Cordoba, which of course ended up being a brothel. I know this because when I asked one of the girls what she did for work she replied that she ¨worked in love.¨ The English guy and I promptly went back to the hostel, but the Australian guy said he was going to ¨stick around for a bit.¨

The first structure I have seen in months that doesn´t look about to fall over

I cannot figure out if this is English or Spanish

Even the dogs are happier in Argentina

Did I mention I was in Salta?

It´s about time someone estimated my compression

Non-rotten fruit is also a novelty to me
