Buenos Aires

The women are indeed fantastic- I was dating a few of them, but ultimitely, I went with a Brazillian... a majority of them speak very good english, as well.

Anyway, just about any place around Ricoletta (Recolletta? Can't remember the spelling) will have great food. Also, take a cab and go to La Boca- some really neat cafe's and restaurants down there.

BsAs is very safe, especially if you stay in the downtown area. There area lot of homeless people in the streets, but I've never been bothered by them. Don't be stupid, though. Watch your surroundings, but overall you'll be fine.

It's a beautiful city to just walk around in- I used to go for hours and just wonder where I'd end up. Really miss the place. As mentioned, the taxi's are great (and CHEEEEEEAP!) but the real gem is the subway. Very extensive, very safe.

If you're there for a few days, I'd also recommend taking the ferry over to Uruguay for a day- the boat to (Colonia?) only costs maybe $50 round trip, and the town is very charming- old seaside fort, reminded me of a mix between St. Augustine and some forts on the NC coast...

Anyway, beautiful city, very European, very safe, beautiful women, THE BEST steaks in the world... you're going to have a wonderful time!

Oh come on they are not that stuck up. You just have to project some confidence and dress nicely. The payoff is worth the effort..............seriously

Is it project some confidence? Or do you have to be a flat out arrogant prik like here in the U.S. with a typical high octane, grade A 100% pure American Bizatch?

By "projecting confidence", all that means is going up to them and saying "hi". It's retardedly easy.
