They have photography for almost any subject since there are many photographers who contribute to the site. I would suggest taking a look at some pictures of Argentina and maybe buy some. I have added one picture to the group and I think I might start contributing some more soon. Disfruta las fotos!

So, I’m going to make a list of some topics that I will be posting about in coming posts. Also, I’m sure there are questions that readers might have If so, just send them to me and I’ll be glad to write a post on the subject. Here are some of the topics:

  • Backpacking in Argentina
  • Differences in Cultures (among difference cities)
  • Parks in Buenos Aires (BA)
  • La Playa in the Mountains
  • Differences and Similarities

There are a few to get me started. Please join in the conversation and ask questions!

I found this article from The Marcolian in one of my feeds in Google Reader about a student’s trip to Buenos Aires (BA). I would have to say that we had a very similar experience while in BA. I know some of you have been waiting for some much needed posts here. Well, I’ll be sure to get some up soon. After reading this post post, I have been inspired to post since many might not know what a trip to BA may be like.

So, stay tuned…and thanks for your patience!

What Could We Not Find?

One question that came from my sister that I thought might be interesting to others is, “What could you not find in Argentina that you would want?” Here are a few things that I came up with. Since we have not spent extensive time in Argentina, I’m not sure how accurate this list is. However, here it goes!

  • Peanut Butter – This first comes to my head because my uncle, aunt, and cousins used to be in Chile and they didn’t have any either (just a childhood memory)
  • Marshmallows – I guess that means no smores and Hannah will have to make fondant with something else or make her own marshmallows
  • Inexpensive technology – it’s true. I priced a Motorola Xoom before I left the USA. It was around $347. In Argentina it was around $800. I’ll surely be missing this.
  • Mustard
  • Salty (non-sweet) ketchup
Like technology, there are many things that you can easily find there but are expensive. It’s not like the whole country is a vacant land mass. The big difference is cost.
As bad as it may sound that we might not find the items in this list in Argentina, there are so many things that we find in Argentina that we don’t find elsewhere that outweigh these small number of things.
