Featured: PATAGONIA, Argentina

PATAGONIA, ARGENTINA

From its tropical north to its glacial south, Argentina boasts more diversity and beauty than its fair share, and it takes time to grasp the multitude of environments and experiences that are on offer. Despite the country's tumultuous political heritage , the people of Argentina remain friendly, open and willing to share a laugh with a new amigo. Do as the Argentines do - accept the concept of time as fluid, and draw in all that life brings to greet you.
