This time, I went to Argentina and was completely devastated.
What kind of city doesn’t give you a moment to rest from morning till dawn? I’ll share some of the experiences I had during my visit that made me think, “This is truly crazy.”
The biggest hit was, of course, the steak (Asado) mukbang!
It’s not just a meal; it’s a ritual.
When you go to a restaurant, brick-sized pieces of meat are brought out, oozing with the aroma of charcoal grilling. With each bite, the juices explode in your mouth with a “pop!”
Thanks to the “blue dollar” exchange rate, I can slice the world’s most delicious beef every day for the price of pork belly. I ate until my stomach screamed, “Stop eating!”
But the downside is… the meat is so big that I crave kimchi or spicy ramen like crazy.
And people here don’t eat dinner until 9 p.m.?
I was so hungry I was dizzy, but the restaurant wasn’t even open, so I almost collapsed on the street!
And then there was the tango show, which almost stopped my heart! Tango dancing on the street is amazing, but watching it in a dedicated theater is truly charismatic… wow! Seeing the dancers’ eyes and their sharp footwork made me hold my breath.
It was so romantic, it felt 200% like, “Ah, I’m really in South America!”
But the show ends really late! It usually starts at 10 PM and ends past midnight, so if you sleep in the next day, you’re basically guaranteed a reservation.
And you absolutely can’t miss the San Telmo Sunday Market Tour!
This place is a real ant hell.
On Sundays, the streets are filled with antiques and pretty trash(?).
Just looking around would take three hours, but I couldn’t help but open my wallet when I saw the cute mate cups and leather wallets they sell here.
Watching the street buskers was also quite fun.
But there were… there were so many people!
It felt like I was being swept along by the waves, so I kept clutching my bag like it was my own child, careful of pickpockets.
Lastly, the thing I loved most was just zoning out in a cafe.
Buenos Aires is full of cafes that have been around for over a century. Sitting there, ordering a cortado, and watching people pass by made me think, “This is the real trip!” I felt incredibly happy.
Buenos Aires is a city you really have to experience firsthand, savor with your mouth, and capture with your eyes.
If you ever go, make sure you recharge your batteries!
