Argentina: In a Nutshell

March 13, 2013 by Beth Meyer

Argentina: In a Nutshell

We came back and forth into Argentina three times (flying from South Africa, our trip to Uruguay and after our time in Chile) and all total spent about three weeks in the country. Argentina is massive and unfortunately we didn’t get a chance to get down south to Patagonia, but we did explore some magnificent […]

A Walk from Argentina to Bolivia

February 13, 2013 by Beth Meyer

A Walk from Argentina to Bolivia

Today we walked from Argentina to Bolivia. It sounds like a massive mission, but in reality, we just had to take the bus from Jujuy (where we stayed for one night post working on an organic farm) to La Quiaca, walk about 750 meters to the border, go through immigration and end up in Villazon, […]

Baking without Butter

February 11, 2013 by Beth Meyer

Baking without Butter

I love to bake. It’s one of my favorite things to do. Actually, one of my goals in life is to bake the perfect chocolate chip cookie. I’ve come somewhat close, but it’s still a work in progress. With most baking, you tend to use quite a bit of butter. Back when I had an […]

Working on an Organic Farm (our WWOOF experience)

February 10, 2013 by Beth Meyer

Working on an Organic Farm (our WWOOF experience)

One of our goals while in South America was to volunteer working on an organic farm, or WWOOF – World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms. It’s a way to volunteer and learn about sustainable living and organic farming. When you are a Wwoofer, you are working on the farm anywhere from 6-8 hours per day […]

Goooooooaalllll

Goooooooaalllll

I went with a group from our hostel to my first ever football (soccer) game while we were in Mendoza. We went to the Under 20’s Argentina v. Paraguay game. Since it was Under 20’s and Messi wasn’t playing, it wasn’t all that crowded. The unfortunate part was that they didn’t sell beer in the […]

Wine Country

Wine Country

After spending 56 hours on buses in a five-day period, we were quite excited to finally get to Mendoza. And even more excited to indulge in lots (and lots) of delicious Malbec! On our first full day in Mendoza, we decided to go on the sunset horseback riding tour, which ended with an asado bbq, […]

Waterfalls & Rainbows: two days at Iguazu Falls

January 7, 2013 by Beth Meyer

Waterfalls & Rainbows: two days at Iguazu Falls

Iguazu Falls are the waterfalls of the Iguazu River on the border of Argentina and Brazil. It was high on my list of places I wanted to visit in Argentina, however, getting to and from the falls was a bit of a mission. To get there from Buenos Aires, you have to either fly, which […]

A Day at the Races – #GetHot

December 29, 2012 by Beth Meyer

A Day at the Races – #GetHot

For Momma and Bill’s last day in Argentina, we decided to head to the track and engage in one of Bill and my favorite activities…betting on the ponies. I first came to enjoy the track during the glory days of Hollywood Park’s Friday Night Racing with $1 beer and hotdogs. I’ll admit, initially I was […]

Exploring Buenos Aires

December 28, 2012 by Beth Meyer

Exploring Buenos Aires

While my mom and Bill were in town, we explored a vast majority of Buenos Aires. They rented a VRBO apartment for us as our home base in the Palermo area of BA. Words can’t describe how nice it was to have an apartment as our home base for the week, where we could bake […]

Buenos Aires Street Art

December 27, 2012 by Beth Meyer

Buenos Aires Street Art

From the moment we arrived in Buenos Aires, you can’t help but noticed the massive amounts of graffiti on buildings, walls and subway trains all over the city. Buenos Aires has a huge street art scene and we thought it’d be really fun to take one of the tours offered to learn more about it. […]
