Testing out the nightlife in BA
Travel Location: Buenos-Aires,Argentina
I arrived at my hostel at 2pm and knew that I only had 24 hours in BA so should make the most of it, despite feeling totally exhasuted! My hostel was in the city centre so i didn’t get time to chec out the cuter more characterful neighbourhoods but I diod a fairly good job of covering off the Obelisk, the Plaza de Major and Corrientes St where all the big theatres are. Ba struck me as being just another european style city- I’m sur eit has its charms which i will no doubt discover when I return for Christmas, but i didn’t feel as if i ws leaving the “ordinary” or get any flavour of latin america.
I decided to try out the legendary nightlife “just for a few” as i didn’t want to go too bed too early and get jet lag, so i paid to join in an organised pubcrawl. The first bar ws all you can drink red wine and all you can eat pizza so i think i got my moneysworth there! when i first arrived it was just young local guys who just wanted cheap beer and had no interest in socialising with me so I thought it was going to be a bad night but then I met an aussie guy called ohil and a Trinidadian called Riche and we had an absolute blast! The actual pub crawl got cancelled as there weren’t enough of us, but we all went on to several bars anyway and I must say, before i went out i didn’t know how people stayed out all night but now I do! I got in at 6am and didn’t even realise the time until I sqw it was light outside! Crazy night! I also managed to fall out of my top bunk bed and dislocate my finger… this is why i ALWAYS get the bottom bunk if i can!!
The next day I staggered up and got myself to the airport for my flight to Ushuaia, the worlds most southernmost city- quite literally the end of the world!
