Patagonia!

First off I have a few pics still to add from Buenos Aires.

My Hostel in the city center of Buenos Aires, Arg. It is a narrow climb up 4 flights to get to the reception, but the rooms were clean, with nice bathrooms. The showers had very hot water and good pressure. The breakfast was the basic jam and bread with tea or cafe.

My dorm room at V&S Hostel in Buenos, Aires. I stayed only one night before heading to Bariloche by bus....

I took Via Bariloche (an Argentine bus company) from the bus station "retiro" in Buenos Aires on a 20 hour venture through various little surrounding cities, dessert, and mountains to Bariloche.

I chose the cama option, which means that my seat reclined almost all the way back, food was included, and there was an attendant. the seats were similar to business class on an airplane.

I arrived at the main bus station about 15 minutes from the city center in Bariloche. I hopped a local bus to the center and walked a couple blocks up hill to "41 Below" a Hostel owned by a Kiwi. It´s nice. Includes the basics and should be a good jumping point for skiing at Cero Catedral (one of the most well known ski resorts in South America).

San Carlos de Bariloche is a city in the province of Río Negro, Argentina, in the Andes. Nahuel Huapi sits at the bottom of the hill in the city. It is surrounded by mountains and resembles any mountain town; complete with wood and stone buildings a laid back feel and lots of beer. In fact, Bariloche is also home to countless breweries- which I am quite excited to taste.

Well, off to explore a bit, have a beer, study spanish, and relax before heading off to ski tomorrow morning.
Love and Adventure
