I lived in Buenos Aires Argentina for nearly 10 years. I just returned from a 4 month tour of Buenos Aires in April 2023. I stayed in the San Telmo neighborhood it was awesome.
Those colorful sculptures are part of "Paseo de la Historieta" ("Comic Strips Walk"), those are characters from iconic local comic strips from XX century. The ones shown in your video were "Isidoro Cañones", and "Don Fulgencio, the man whom hadn't childhood", among others scattered around downtown, which followed "Mafalda", initially an homage to her author, Quino.
Asi es del hermoso San Telmo. En Pto Madero tambien tienes otras figuras
Muy buenas noches desde Ciudad de Buenos Aires. Este comentario es solo para agradecerte la calidad de tu video y la manera respetuosa con la que muestras tu recorrido. Hemos tenido la suerte de recorrer 12 provincias argentinas cada ciudad que visitamos tiene sus encantos particulares. Es un país abierto al turismo y con mucha gente buena y amigable, donde siempre hay alguien para ayudar y brindar su amistad. Buenos Aires, como toda gran ciudad tiene sus problemas, pero son infinitamente menores que sus ventajas. Nuestro país tiene los brazos abiertos para turistas de todo el mundo, una amplia variedad de destinos turísticos, rios, montañas, glaciares, desiertos, bosques, mar, selvas, ciudades con mucha historia y por sobretodo, mucho cariño para ofrecer. Un abrazo!☺☺☺🌎
Good evening from the City of Buenos Aires. This comment is just to thank you for the quality of your video and the respectful way in which you show your journey. We have been lucky enough to visit 12 Argentine provinces, each city we visit has its own particular charms. It is a country open to tourism and with many good and friendly people, where there is always someone to help and offer their friendship. Buenos Aires, like any big city, has its problems, but they are infinitely less than its advantages. Our country has open arms for tourists from all over the world, a wide variety of tourist destinations, rivers, mountains, glaciers, deserts, forests, sea, jungles, cities with a lot of history and above all, a lot of love to offer. A hug!
Hey, I've been loving these vlogs. It's been really fun to see how a foreigner experiences my country for the first time, how everyday things get you exited. You also made me think how open you are to try things here as you don't have biases towards certain thing that we Argentinians do have. I hope you are having as a great time as it seems. I wish you the best!
Thank you so much, I'm really glad you've been enjoying my Argentina vlogs ☺️ Having an amazing time and still have more than a month of travel left!
What can one in your country for 10 dollars
I'm loving your videos! One of the so very few "youtubers" who does actually focus on learning beyond what's super touristy and/or upmarket. I don't mean that would not be a part of most people's visit to a city/country, but that really makes a difference when it comes to learning about a place. You're straighfoward, no-bull yet respectful about the economy, exchange rate, etc.
Hot tip: to learn about the origins of things (customs, habits, food, whatnot) as well as how things work or what they are like, do talk to locals -more than one or two: we are very open and talkative [I'm an expat Argentine but still and always an Argentine] and "always have something to say" about everything. You can then double-check, average out, and learn a lot of Spanish along the way
i loveeee the way you vlog, very entertaining cause it feels like you’re talking to your audience as a friend. and at the same time very informative. earned a sub!!
Great video! ❤ We also visited San Telmo but it was so crowded when we did and was a little hard to enjoy the time, haha.
First video and I subscribed. Hope you show more on Argentina and restaurants to visit. Hope to go there at the end of the year. Also looking for how you enjoyed the football game.
Love your energy, you make me see my city with different eyes, also your spanish is super cute 😍.
😊 thank you!
love your enthusiasm!
Thank you for this very informative video post. I’ll be traveling to Buenos Aires from the US in a month after YEARS of wanting to go. I really appreciate the more local perspective rather than just a review of all the famous tourist sites. I’ll bet you could spend that whole 50 bucks on the BA equivalent of Las Ramblas, jeje. I’ll be very glad to practice my Spanish, explore this beautiful country (headed to Ushuaia, too) and pump a few tourist dollars into the economy. I’m alright paying gringo prices for the most part, but def hope I can hit the Blue Dollar tip. Keep up the great work!
What a beautiful video, I love how you walk and enjoy the city. Greetings from a Porteño
The museum you visited near the Fountandain of the Nereids of Lola Mora is the Museum of Copies (calcos). There you can find copies of the best sculptures of the world. I believe the one you showed is the Victory of Samotracia. The original is in the Louvre Museum at Paris. The Natural Reserve Costanera Sur is a place with birds and lovely vegetation, several blocks from downtown of Buenos Aires. From there you can see the River Plate, the widest river in the world. In very clear days you may spot the TV antena of Colonia, in Uruguay.
The Centro Cultural Kirchner has a very big concert hall and is the building of the former Argentina Postal Service "Correo Central".
Sos una persona muy agradable... Me encantan tus videos!!!
Wow muchas gracias!! 🥰
No se si ya lo has hecho, pero me gustaría ver tu reacción al sistema de transporte público de Buenos Aires, es decir el colectivo, el subte, el tren, el taxi. Gracias por la buena onda con mi país!
Argentine here absolutely outstanding video, thanks!
Congrats for your brand new Palo Santo Mate!
Cheers from Buenos Aires
otro lugar que podes visitar es el jardin japones, es hermoso y encima luego podes almorzar :) saludos!
En Palermo?
@@girlvsglobe Si es increíblemente hermoso! mas si puedes ir a la ceremonia del te, la hacen dias puntuales y en horarios puntuales!!!
@@girlvsglobe Buenas noches. Si vas a Palermo, donde está el Jardín Japonés, también puedes conocer el Rosedal de Palermo (A solo 300 metros) donde se encuentra el "Jardín de los Poetas", con 26 bustos de escritores famosos de todo el mundo. Las rosas ya no podrás verlas porque esta semana comenzó la poda de invierno. Una lástima que no las hayas visto en flor. Saludos.
Japanese here ! I live in the States ,but your Japanese garden is something I am looking forward to see with mom whenever we'll be visiting your majestic country ARGENTINA 🇦🇷 someday very soon we are hoping !!! I am usually not impressed by any " Japanese " garden as the authentic ones in Japan tops all !! But,yours in Palermo is beautiful & more loyal to the real Japanese one !! I believe I had learnt about it at school as a kid !! Argentina has always been my No.1 football country !! And we both love watching Argentine tango !! 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🇦🇷💕🎶
First off (I'm barely a minute and a half into the video) I must say that the "local explaining Argentina's economic situation" bit is on point. Anyone watching this should acknowledge the clear, straighforward explanation and the effort and care put into it.
Just saying...
Hola! Me gusta cómo ponés en contexto muchas cosas que están sucediendo en Argentina. Ya que también hay que contar las partes "malas" de un lugar.
Por cierto, respecto al mate que te compraste, es muy probable que se te "raje"/"parta" en algún momento. Bah, yo nunca he tenido suerte con los de madera (tuve 2), por eso siempre es conveniente comprar los de calabaza (además es mucho más rico el sabor). Así que mi recomendación es que antes de "curar" el mate (dejarlo con yerba nueva y un poco de agua tibia durante toda la noche) también le pases una pequeña capa de aceite en el interior. De esta manera se reducen las posibilidades de que se filtre agua por los poros y se termine rajando.
Un abrazo grande y que sigas disfrutando la ciudad! :)
Ah, ideas de lugares para visitar un día de sol: Ciudad Universitaria: hay 2 "universidades" dentro del predio: la Universidad de Diseño y la Universidad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales. Puedes entrar y visitarla un día de semana. Te vas a sorprender lo "rústicas" que son, pero recuerda que las universidades son libres y gratuitas, y puede ser algo curioso para contar. Además, atrás de esas universidades está la Reserva Natural Costanera Norte para que puedas estar cerca del Río de La Plata. Spoiler: tiene más cemento que verde, pero es un lindo lugar igualmente. Obviamente la Reserva Natural Costanera Sur es mil veces más "natural".
San telmo beautiful place, specially Saturday, Sunday streets going around.
tenes que hacer un video viajando en colectivo por distintos puntos de bs as :) saludos!!
Ohh buena idea!! 👀😁
The statues belongs to famous comics from Argentina. The one in suit is isidoro cañones, the little kid is matias and the one with the ballons is really old, I dont know the name
Thank you for the explanation, I’ll do some more research but that’s helpful 😁
Yes - and the most famous character of them all in San Telmo is Mafalda on the bench (Mafalda Monument). Mafalda is often compared to "Peanuts" (i.e. Charlie Brown) but Mafalda was more of a vehicle for socio-political satire whereas Peanuts aimed to lift the voices of unheard children in a world run by adults.
@@girlvsglobe you are a very nice and happy person!!. You can go to museo Larreta, and Museo Sarmienrlo in the neighborhood of Belgrano and drink differents tea.
You speak spanish very well.
But u need to learn talk in "argentino" jaja. Is a diferent kind of spanish
El museo de calcos de la U.N.A ( Universidad Nacional de las Artes) es el lugar que aun me falta por recorrer de la ciudad, he recorrido casi todo ya! jeje
Si queres lograr que te guste el mate, el primero (o sea la primera carga de agua que le haces al mate) escupilo, y despues toma normalmente, aca mucha gente hace eso. Y es mas facil de tomar asi. Saludos!!
Que lo tome con azúcar o miel, cáscara de naranja seca y más tibio.
Hasta que se vaya acostumbrando al gusto amargo y el agua más caliente.
@@fernando367ful así y todo también el primero le puede parecer feo
Julio/23 con 10 dolares blue poded comprarte un sweter u alguna otra cosa, algun almuerzo para 2 personas, una merienda para 3 depende de donde vayas.
Hey... Great video.
Not sure if you see these comments but...... I heard that now you get the blue rate on foreign credit cards. Is that true??
Thanks
Hi There!. I'm so glad you visited "La Carcova" Museum. And much more surprised it was a free ride. By chance, did you see David Sculpture? (Years before there was a 1:1 scale copy of Michelangelo's sculpture, only 5 copies around the world).
By the way....the characters at the streets are "Cartoon Characters" of all times. The guy is "Isodoro Cañones" (A kind of .... jerk...a white collar .... a tricky guy...a bit of gigolo....but...he always used to end clean every time....
There are many Cartoons (popular) in Argentinian Culture such as: Clemente, Mafalda, Isodor Cañones, Hijitus (a kind of Argentinian superheore), Anteojito, and many others .... most of them ... are well known in SouthAmerica, Spain, and even in Mexico.
Argentina i'ts a lovely country. Irs so sad many people thinks about argentina just like a "not secure" country, because its such dangerous as NY or LA. ¿How long could you stay in Bronx with an Ipad in middle of a square without troubles?. Come on.
It's such a shame you guys suffered in Montevideo the lack of drinkable water this is because of the lack of rain during last 2 years (during an year, Buenos Aires and/or Montevideo, it rains once in 3/4 days in average).
Hoping the best for you, and thanks for promoting Argentina secrets (in english). It woth a lot for us.
visit the british falklands islands its near by a great place port stanley city
I’ve been!
Hola, si el mate es de madera, tienes que curarlo con yerba mojada, sinó va a durar poco y se va a rajar o romper. Buena suerte!!!! Y a disfrutar la vida en Buenos Aires 🎉
I was waiting for an explanation of how to negotiate the blue rAte? How do American credit cards work there or is cash the only best way? Do you only find cambios near Florida Ave or can I find them in Recoleta or Palermo too? Is the blue rate the same with cambios as western union? Are cambios safe and legal?
Cambios are safe but not actually legal. I was in Argentina in June, and I found the western union rate just as good as the cambios, the only down side is that western union charges a fee, the cambios don't. But make sure to have crisp new $100 US bills, that's what they want at the cambios. Cash only, credit cards get you the standard bank rate of exchange. They have cambios in several areas of Buenos Aries, usually on the main street for tourism and shopping.
Those red zigzag bars are made so that you have to look from one side to the other before crossing the train tracks.
Smart! ☺️
8:54 son de la historieta y caricatura de Mafalda.
8:50 that’s Isidoro Cañones a character from the comic Patoruzú
I noticed that the streets are very clean.
how to find organic ingredient in the capital of Argentina
I will visit and stay
After looking all over to find the perfect Mate, I was just as happy to find mine. On a long haul bus, I pulled out the Mate and offered it to the Argentine next to me. It really broke the ice.
Ur eyes 👀 focus and vitality infuses energy presence (rare) and magnetism....👏 🎯
Do Credit Card purchases get charged at the Blue Rate now in Argentina ?
It’s a different rate but is only slightly worse than the blue rate. Works with both visa and Mastercard at the moment ☺️
@@girlvsglobe thanks,, that's good news
Hablas español muy bien ...you español is good !!!❤
Besos Abrazos Bendiciones desde Lincoln Argentina
Can you use a USA debit card in Buenos Aires?
Yes!
Muy bien , el Español !!!👋👋👋 Perfecto !!! .........
Those sculptures of dolls that are on the sidewalks are of Argentine comics characters, nice video, regards
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
As of Feb 28, 2024 you can still get an espresso and 2 croissants for $2.50 dls
Hello friend, I also invite you to visit the north of ARGENTINA, it is a very nice example: SALTA and Jujuy, greetings
I’m in Salta right now 😁
@@girlvsglobe que lo disfrutes
Que mujer alegre sos!
A bottle of water in NYC is $2 now.
I didn't know Argentina's national money are pesos like in Mexico. Great trip and video, Sabina
Sorry but no is necessary take money in cash, you can send money by western Union, they pay the blue rate ;)
A sandwich like that you bought with the steak in America be like over $10.
The Word it's not cheap, it's affordable. Cheap has the intrinsic concept of bad quality and I think its not the case.
Agreed, affordable may be a better word here ☺️
Come on. Cheap is ok in colloquial language, we all knew what she meant. Inexpensive is more precise than affordable.
Or economical. Either word your point is meritorious. Cheap is just down right disrespectful. I'm guilty of saying it myself and feel shameful afterwards especially when speaking to a native.
🎉,1000000$
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
as of today, US$10 gets ARS9265 at the blue rate 😲
It appears $10 or Argentine equivalent got you further in Argentina then would America. So who is really worse off?
The difference is that an Argentine earns on average 300 USD per month and that of an American is above 3000 USD per month.
@@augusto27. but US is suffering. Lots of homeless and close to homeless
@@MbisonBalrog In Argentina, 45% of the population is poor and this increases every day. The areas that appear in the video do not reflect the reality of Argentina.
The north of the country and the areas on the outskirts of the big cities are very poor and do not have basic services covered (electricity, water, gas,...).
Argentina is very big and beautiful but we have serious economic problems.
@@augusto27. I seen vids of Cities like Mendoza, Rosario Salta. They look better than US cities
Careful with the mate. It needs to be "cured" before you can use it.
That’s what I talk about at the end of the video ☺️
@@girlvsglobe
Sorry, I guess that I've missed that part.
And now 10 U$S = $ 5700 Pesos Arg. So sad
$ 6000 coming up.
Well not anymore
Today USD 1 = $780 😢
So much change the primaries 😔
Do you know what the current blue rate is?
@@roberthowarth5082 today is $1.035 per dollar
@@roberthowarth5082 1000 pesos
3 weeks after 10 are 6.000 pesos, hahaha...
It changes so fast! I really hope the situation improves :(
The real question should be: what you cannot buy in Argentina with 10 dolars 🤣. With that money you can save their economy
El dólar blue sube por las elecciones , no es una crisis real
Ya teníamos más de 100% de inflación 1 mes antes de las elecciones. Cómo que no es una crisis real?
@@emanuel1276 una crisis real es cuando los bancos se quedan con los depósitos , cierran las fábricas por qué la gente no puede consumir y hay despidos masivos , recortes sociales y tarifazos , represión en las calles... no por qué los sojeros no quieren vender por qué especulan con el próximo gobiernos si devalúa mas y les conviene esperar y así sube la cotización del dólar paralelo. Argentina entro a los BRICS. Ya no hace falta usar dólares para la industria y se le puede pagar al FMI con la importación de gas gracias al gasoducto Nk
Please pay attention to this video if you’re young and find out what the inflation will do when they tell you, it will do nothing they’re lying to you and this is what is happening to the United States in every European country on purpose. Please vote for your future, do not listen to rubbish./thank you for this informative video. We want to visit.
those are comic book caracters
Are there Black people or Asian people living in Argentina?
if people keep buying dollars... how is the peso not gonna lose value ???
please do not spread the idea that it is convenient for argentina to be buying dollars... stop it.
Bottle of water is 65 cents USD, the sandwich was $1.42... the USD is going far there now.
this turist guide is a liar
In what way?
@@girlvsglobe Ignore him. Your video is excellent and respectful, but there are people who want to annoy. Keep it up, your followers love you. Greetings.
No le hagas caso. Tu video es excelente y respetuoso, pero hay gente que busca molestar. Sigue así, tus seguidores te aman. Saludos.☺☺
Hay dos tipos de palo santo,uno es que tenes en el mate color verdoso y el otro es altamente perfumado y se usa para hacer sahumerios,perfumes,extractos,etc. Ese si debes olerlo es rico su aroma,el del mate no tiene aroma.
Pronuncias muy bien las palabras argentinas.oara mi punto de vista vos hablas bien o sos argentina o tus padres lo son.algo no contas.jajjaja.saludos
