Buenos Aires hotel restaurants take cuisine cues from around the globe
2011-03-06 10:24:00 It's hard to find a cozier breakfast or brunch spot that at the Resto-Bar at the hip-and-happening Home Hotel in Buenos Aires' Palermo Hollywood barrio. In this month's issue of Today's Chicago Woman, I invited readers to meet me in Argentina, where I not only sipped wine and slept at bodegas, or wineries, in the renowned province of Mendoza, but also dined fabulously at restaurants housed in Buenos Aires hotels. Just as you'll find in many of the world's top cities, some of BA's most interesting dining spots are located in these. A bustling capital city of about three million residents, Buenos Aires features not only traditional Argentine eateries, but restaurants that borrow influences from around the continent--and across...
LOOK MA, NO SITE!
2010-10-26 20:10:00 Leave it to the think tanks over at Kamchatka, a Buenos Aires-based creative firm, to think of something so completely outside of the box that it doesn't even need its own website. That's right, not only does the firm not have a traditional website, but it decided to keep its online presence completely confined to Twitter! Don't ask us why, but here's a video on how they accomplished it:
Buenos Aires Sets Up PINK POINT for the Gay Lesbian Traveler
2010-09-12 15:20:00 The city of Buenos Aires has long been regarded as one of the hottest international destinations for gay tourism. Now, with the passing of the Same Sex Marriage Law in Argentina, the country has already seen a surge in gay travel. Yet some, who have never been, wonder whether Buenos Aires really is as gay-friendly as it seems to be. Unlike many cities known for being gay friendly, there is no ?district? in Buenos Aires housing a slew of gay bars and nightclubs. This often makes it difficult for gay tourists to find exactly what it is they are looking for. There is nothing worse than being in strange territory, trying to navigate your way around. ?A lot of gay students and tourists that come to Buenos Aires get lost in this big jungle of a city, and without any specific districts or signs to help them out, it can be overwhelming,? said Erik Hovenga, Managing Director of Ecole del Sur Travel Agency and founder of The Royal Family , a gay-friendly language school. ?The truth is, Bu...
Plazas de Buenos Aires
2010-04-26 15:49:00 El fenómeno 678 facebook no para un segundo. Este Sábado 24/4 distintas plazas de Buenos Aires encontraron la participación de sus miembros: En la Plaza de la Memoria un grupo de vecinos se congregó reclamando su reapertura. Cuentan algunos de ellos que el virtual Vicejefe de Gobierno de la Ciudad Diego Santilli se había comprometido a abrirla, aduciendo que se encuentra cerrada por un problema de seguridad vinculado con la autopista lindante. La cuestión es que la protección que habría que colocar cuesta sólo 30000 pesos, por lo que la negativa a adquirirla, es inexplicable, salvo que se trate de una cuestión política. A pocas cuadras de allí en la Plaza Martín Fierro, otros participantes de 678 facebook, pertencientes al grupo de Parque Patricios Boedo y San Critstobal acompañaron la reinauguración de la Plaza Martín Fierro, arbitrariamente cerrada por el Gobierno de la Ciudad.El encuentro con el acompaañmiento de Murgas, y mateadas derivó en un franco intercambio de opiniones...

English Teaching in Buenos Aires, Argentina
2008-05-28 04:50:00 BEFORE YOU GET HEREThe best thing that you can do to prepare yourself is to study up on grammer and teaching techniques. If you are not familiar with the basic concepts of english grammer I recomend taking an online tefl course with the modest cost of $300. I recomend an online TEFL course as opposed to the month-long in-person one because the month long courses are a waste of time and money. It will take you at least 2 months of teaching here in order to break even with the $1000+ that you would spend on the course.BUSINESS ENGLISH IS BORINGThrough an institute you will be teaching students who work for large companies like Verizon or Tide Bleach. The students´classes are therefore paid for by their employers.Business English is really boring. You have to teach vocabulary words that have to do with their jobs, the economy, how to write emails. Students are sometimes technical writers who have you proofread work they?ve done which explains to another technical writer in the united s...

Monuments of Buenos Aires: Spaniard's Monument
2008-05-04 19:57:00 This is in my opinion one of the most beautiful monuments in Buenos Aires, not only for its magnificence, but also for its location, in the intersection of two wide boulevards: Avenue del Libertador and Avenue Sarmiento in Palermo.Its real name is "Magna Carta and the Four Argentine Regions", but everybody knows it as "El monumento de los Españoles" (The Monument to the Spaniards). It was donated in 1910 by the Spanish community for the centenary of the May Revolution. But the construction suffered several problems. The first sculptor and winner of the design contest, Agustin Querol, died in 1909, and his creation had to be continued by another artist, Cipriano Folgueras, who also died shortly after. The work was even more delayed when the Spanish ship which brought the bronze pieces sunk on March, 1916 in the Brazilian coast, and replicas had to be ordered to Spain, which were finished in 1918. The monument was finally inaugurated on May 25, 1927.The monument is made on a 24.5 mete...

Buenos Aires through a german's eyes
2008-04-24 20:12:00 What is so appealing about Buenos Aires that millions of people choose it out of the rest of the world as a destination when it comes to enjoying themselves, resting and discovering a place where they will be greeted with wide arms open.According to the survey carried out by the National Secretariat of Tourism of Argentina (SECTUR), virtually nine out of ten tourists who visited Buenos Aries found ?what they were expecting and even more? and considered that quality service improved or remained as good as in previous visits. The report, which covered virtually 800 cases, showed that more than 90% of the respondents said it is likely they come back to the country as a tourist. As we thought it would be ?unethical?, in a matter of speaking, for an Argentinean to promote its own country, we will let a German friend of ours speak for ourselves. We met him in San Martin de los Andes one of the most wonderful places of Patagonia.Marco has traveled to Argentina since 1994. The first places ...
