ROSARIO AND CORDOBA (ARGENTINA)

After spending considerably more time in Buenos Aires than I had initially intended I headed north through Argentina to Rosario and later onto Cordoba. I found Rosario to be quite interesting and as Argentina's 3rd largest city, I found there were a sufficient number of monuments, museums and parks to check out during my initial visit of only a single day. The city was however much like many of Argentina's other big cities and as such my return almost 2 months was more to catch up with my friend Paola whom I had met during my first visit, rather than to check out any more of the city's attractions. Nonetheless, the city monument commemorating Argentina's independence from Spain was however probably the best I visited whilst in the country. On my second visit I made a number of new friends and managed to venture out to experience the Rosario nightlife a few times both with them and with Paola, outings which I enjoyed thoroughly.

Probably the most amazing thing I found in Rosario was the abbundance of absolutely stunning women. Whilst by this stage I had already decided that Argentina was the country in which I was most likely to meet my future wife, I was continually amazed by just how beautiful the girls from Rosario were. Having entered a club on one of the nights I went out with some friends, I literally did not know where to turn my head as there were just so many amazing girls wandering around, all of which were very friendly as well. Needless to say this was one of my favourite night time outings during my trip in South America.

After my first visit to Rosario I headed onto Cordoba, the 2nd largest city in Argentina and another location with a reputation for dishing up great nightlife. As such, despite there being some interesting museums (unfortunately it turned out that none had explanations in english) and places to visit close by to the city, my main reason for going there was just to party a little and the nightlife certainly didn't dissapoint, mostly I think because of the large student population (apparently almost 1 in 6 people are students). Whilst I only stayed 3 days in the city I had a lot of fun letting my hair down and making some new friends. By taking my camera out with me not only did I find I was able to capture some of my nightlife experiences but also to a small extent the Argentine culture when it came to clubbing - something which I still have yet to witness anything similar elsewhere. Under the influence of Fernet with coke I later realised that I must have asked pretty much everyone I could if they wanted to be in a photo with me. Most of them were more than happy to oblige.... The result was a multitude of photos of people I have vague recollections of but of course the main thing is that I seemed to be having fun...
