Blog: Canada's Adventure Couple - 1 February 2012
The catch phrase for Ushuaia Argentina is Fin Del Mundo (The End of the World) and it truly feels like you are at the bottom of the world when visiting this southernmost city on earth. Many a sailor lost their lives trying to circle Cape Horn, the Northern Boundary of the Drake Passage. Something we'll be crossing soon.

Learning to Love Buenos Aires
Blog: Viva Latin America! - 30 January 2012
Everyone has a vision of BA before they arrive. I’d seen images of the ‘Paris of the South’ and had imagined myself tango dancing down the brightly coloured streets with a handsome Argentinean.

So What’s Buenos Aires Like?
Blog: Twenty-Something Travel - 22 January 2012
Unlike a lot of place I go, I know quite a bit about Buenos Aires already. This is in part because of my childhood obsession with Evita (I love Andrew Lloyd Webber and I’m not ashamed!) but mostly because my handsome Argentinean-American boyfriend has not shut up about the place since we met. This city [...]

How We Find Apartments Around the World
