As an argentinean, don't feel bad for taking advantage of the economic issues and the currency rate, the more people that come to do the same, the better.

If you do there are many options besides Recoleta and Palermo, that are astutely recommended as THE options because prices are obscenely inflated rent wise. Many safe parts of the city, but always choose locations near subway stations or avenues, where public transportatión is profuse. And there many excelente restaurants that are not highly rated in the web just because the do not pay to be.

Gnocchi, ñoquis, are one of the most exquisite pasta recipes but since they are mostly mashed potatoes you can only try them in a restaurant or home made. Those you buy at supermarkets are dough and not even remotely the real thing.

I'm American and my wife is Argentinian and can relate to many of your experiences! Yes, the economic situation is beyond horrible in Argentina but the reason your money goes farther there is because the locals want your cash so they can get out of their rapidly devaluing pesos. You mentioned realizing the "street rate" (dollar blue) by engaging with the money changers on Calle Florida, etc. and it feeling "dodgy". I agree (although generally it's OK) which is why I and many others use Western Union. WU will give you near the dollar blue rate with the added convenience of direct bank transfers, etc. You install their app on your phone and then essentially transfer yourself money from your home bank. They do the electronic transfer/conversion automatically and give you near the dollar blue rate. You then pick up the pesos in one of their many physical locations throughout the country.

Hi! I'm Argentinian. There's not much to think about our "currency situation" as you put it. If you come here with US Dollars and exchange them at reputable locations, you will find most of the country accessible or even cheap. But you need to manage using our currency (the Argentinian Peso). Also, and this is beyond the scope of your question, you might want to look and feel as "anti tourist" as possible to avoid dodgy cab drivers, inmoral shop keepers and such... Hope to have you here soon! You'll love your stay in Buenos Aires.

[@carlosa.granitto8006]

Welcome to Argentina! Here are a couple of tips about brewing mate :) 1. The yerba mate: I don't like Cachamate but it's totally up to you. This brand introduces a blend of yerba mate and other yerbas. It's like helps digestion. But it's not the original flavor, let's say. Try instead Taragui, Rosamonte, among others. 2. Drinking mate is highly addictive, but it's not so easy in the beginning. You will need to drink a lot of mates before you start to enjoy them. 3. Yes, you should review the brewing process again. Don't be afraid to use your hand to turn down the mate to get all the dust of the yerba to the top of the mate. The goal here is to remove the dust from the bottom of the mate, otherwise when you sip, the metal pump could be blocked by the dust. After doing so, keep the "hole" in the yerba and serve hot water there, just a little bit to get the yerba humid. Then enter the metal pump in the hole, and serve the rest of the hot water, but take care of not covering all the yerba (to leave some surface of yerba dry) 4. enjoy it! good luck!

[@lisandromc78]

Buena receta!

[@kizufgsfds]

she definitely burnt (boiling water) the yerba and also overstepped it, you're supposed to start drinking it in small slurps as soon as possible, and repeat, it brews fast that's why you keep some dry and progress pouring over it when the flavors start weakening

[@javi97003]

she should have used more yerba for her cup

[@sinergiamdp]

The best way to try the "mate" flavour is by drinking it as a tea; it comes in bags, like tea and you can consume it as so; after use your palate to the flavor, will be more simple for you to try it the traditional way; both are, in fact, "traditional" but the tea is a little newer.

[@girlvsglobe]

Ohh is this mate cocido? I have some teabags at home but was told it’s not the “proper” way of having it 😂

[@sinergiamdp]

@@girlvsglobe Yes, that's "mate cocido", it's the same herb but more ground, in order to brew faster. It's prepared exactly the same as tea and you can add milk as english do with tea or a little lemon juice to give it a frutal and acid touch; that will be a more friendly way to get used to the new flavor and calibrating your palate for analyzing it better, as you try once and again; usually is sweeten with sugar, honey or dietetic sweetener; you'll like it. I hope that you enjoy all the time you spent at this beautiful lands. I feel glad of helping you, at least in a little cultural topic like this. Greetings

[@SandroSvragulia]

​​​@@girlvsglobe if it's not the proper way, why is it in argentinian markets (and in most argentinian houses 😅)?. There's always a guy who says "don't put sugar on mate" or "mate cocido is not real mate". The best version of mate is the one that suits you. Edit: great video 👏🏼

Re: Meeting people from online - I think if you put out there (as you do) that you've got a decent head on your shoulders and you have sufficient confidence, those who would take advantage of you will think you're going to be difficult to take advantage of and not worth the effort. Add this to the fact that the VAST majority of people really are good people, and it's not a huge danger. People are taught to fear because the few negative instances get all the attention. Your enthusiasm is very inspirational! Thanks for sharing.

Welcome to Buenos Aires, my hometown! I hope you'll have a fantastic stay and enjoy every single minute of it. You must have noticed our Chinatown is much smaller than London's but very picturesque and you can find some authenticity flavour because there's a solid Asian community. The area that reminds you of Canary Wharf is called Puerto Madero, the newest neighbourhood in the city. The first time I visited London over 20 years ago something similar happened to me in Butler's Wharf, nearby Tower Bridge. Vibes were very noticeable, all those decks... I think Puerto Madero was built with that area of London on mind and they've done quite a nice job! We are mostly friendly and trustworthy people but please always be careful and do your own research. Do not assume that something is done one way or another because someone tells you so. I'm talking about exchange and other stuff too. If it feels dodgy, it is probably for some good reason and you don't have to run unnecessary risks when there are much safer options. Yerba mate is very popular here but it's not for everyone. I've only tried it once when I visited an estancia in El Chalten in Patagonia. In my family we drink tea and coffee everyday, though we can have mate cocido sometimes, and I know we are not the only ones. I am one of those of Italian heritage 🙋‍♀️ with some English and Irish connections in the family but that's not the point. If you want to try good quality pasta, a specialised shop (Casa de Pastas) is a much better idea than the supermarket. There are lots of them everywhere across the city and they'll sell you everything you need to enjoy a full experience. We usually have pasta on Sundays but any day is a good day! I agree with you about shopping for food in a country. I also loved to do so everytime I was in London! If you like sandwiches as fast food, do not miss our 'tostado mixto'. Imagine M&S ham and cheese triangled sandwiches but hot and grilled. Add a cup of tea or milk and coffee for a perfect match. You'll find it in every bar or coffee shop in town. I've enjoyed watching this video; some very beautiful views of Buenos Aires that make me feel like exploring right now! It's always interesting to discover our city through foreign eyes; thank you for the visit and the positive vibes. Feel at home and enjoy, Girl!!

[@albertocastillo5763]

The dogmátic instructions for preparing mate are pure crap. Millones drink mate everyday AND don't care if they shake the gourd or not ir if the straw is moved, and so on. The first two or three mates are usually spitted as the herb Is unbearably bitter at thid stage. From then on the flavor is stable and typical. The water must be hot but not boiling or it will become an infusion and tasteless after a short while.

[@girlvsglobe]

Interesting and I’m inclined to agree - I like doing things my way hahah. I’m going to a Yerba mate tasting next week so hopefully I’ll figure out which sort I like best (if any 😂)

[@lisandromc78]

Haha your face at 9:36 is priceless 🤣... the reason being, that at 9:20 you poured *very* hot water, which will overextract the flavor from the yerba leaves (you "burn" the mate), just like it would happen to coffee in boiling water. The proper temperature for mate is 70-75 degrees Celsius. For the same reason, don't wet all the yerba at once, save some flavor for later. About the preparatory shaking: the idea is to allow some air between the leaves, so that the mate doesn't get vacuum-clogged while you drink it. You must shake it while it's upside down, such that the finer leaves will stay on top once you take it back to the upright position. Finally, note that "yerba mate", or just "yerba", refers to the leaves, while the beverage itself is called simply "mate". Anyway, keep it up and enjoy your stay!

[@juliopach8867]

Great job on the Mate 🧉 little tip , first three sip your throw away with the water not so hot yet , also I do add a little bit of auger on the bottom if you like , or honey 🍯 , when the water is ready like 75° , like 24 ° Celsius , it should be fine , I do also add in my mate , lemon peels , or orange peels ( make sure they're fully dry) did you try the Facturas?

[@kakaroto7578]

The purpose of shaking the mate upside down and cover with the hand is that the powder stays in your hand, of course it doesn't work with a paper towel LOL. The brand you bought is not pure yerba mate but a mix of herbs. You put the bombilla in the wrong way, you should try again with someone who knows how tu prepare it, but have in mind that mate is an acquired taste. Nice video!

Al principio ponerle un poquito de azúcar como para ir acostumbra do tu paladar al sabor de la yerba mate y de apoco vas a poder tomarlo sin azúcar y te va a encantar, te vas a acostumbrar a tomar mate y no vas a parar de consumirlo, tiene unas propiedades buenísimas para nuestro organismo.

Zapalliros Verdes are like Zucchinni. (You can also find Zucchinni around Argentina and Uruguay) but Zapallito is a regional/local vegetable from "Rio de la Plara region". By the way, take care of them, if they are "mature" please dont eat them, they are "dangerous" (you won't die, but they are not recomended). By the way, in south america, most of the times people eats Zapallo Anco (as pumpkings(. is not a pumpkin but it's the same flavour/taste. In case you want a real pumpkin, you have to ask for "Zapallo Cabutia". Same scenario with tomatoes, there are many type of tomatoes, cherry, rome (tomate tipo roma) also the bigger ones mostly used for salads, but there is also a local tomato called "perita" or "Criollo" (Creolle), just give it a chance. they are so sweet (Well....organic tomatoes are really sweet, the ones in the supermarkets taste like eatin a slice of foamy). By the way.......if you want to make the difference....move away from the touristic neighbourhoods.... Get a train ticket and go ro Trigre (it's safe, all the northen part of Gran Buenos Aires is safe). And, if you can speak in spanish, feel free to catch a bus or ride a train to the southenr parto of "Gran Buenos Aires". My suggestion.... If you wanna taste "real home-made" and cheap argentinian food... Browse in googlemaps "Turf" (in Boedo Neighbourhood). Ten times cheaper than "Don Julio" or any place in Puerto Madero... One of the "Century XX" Bodegon (a cheaper place .. kinda slummer reastaurant...but....you can taste the real taste of argentinian food over there... #1 Cabutia rellena con queso (A pumpkin filled with a mixture of several chesses / fromagios(, where you shink diffrent pieces of different meats (chicken, pork, cow, lamb....) only 10-12 u$s (and its ok for 2 people even 3. #2 Milanesa Napolitana (typical most wanted food in argentina). #3 Osobuco bajonero (bajon = its a slang to make referente when you are staving, of after smoking a joint, when you need to eat something, mostly sugared). Osobuco is the frontal leg of a pork, and it's cooked during 3 o 4 hours in red wine. All these dishes it cost around 10 to 15 bucks, not mor (and for sure these dishes are for 2 o 3 people) Then if you want to taste a "old school" dessert...."Tarantella Mixta: Its a kind of custard (Flan), mixed with bread pudding, and a floor of apple slices. (Italian Recipe).

Hi , if you use your foreign visa credit card you will get a rate exchange close to the blue rate , also you can receive money using western union at the best exchange rate

[@danielavila_arg]

Tal cual, y usando la tarjeta de crédito, evita tener que andar con mucho efectivo (especialmente para compras o gastos grandes )

[@mr-is7wm]

I would have made the same face as you did.... That stuff you bought is yerba mate mixed with some other yuyos, some medicinal and others that I have no idea what they are for. I would buy pure yerba and maybe sweeten it a little. It will be more pleasant at first. Welcome to Buenos Aires!!!

[@edgardomeriggi2333]

Hey, I think in 4:15 you buy a yerba mate with herbs, and it has mint and another herbs and maybe thats why you dont like it at all, you need a more "soft" yerba and maybe at first try it with sugar or honey

[@nachodamiani5457]

you are really funny and a great editor, honestly!! hope you had a nice stay

[@user-ln9up1sp8g]

Hola linda bienvenida con Sam argentina, pero el mejor vino del mundo esta en Cafayate provincia de (Salta) la linda😉👍😅🤠los esperamos pronto...abrazo grande 👌

[@SomeGuy-ws5zj]

Best yerba is Sol y Lluvia. But is difficult to find. And may be Amanda Especial. Or Rosamonte.

[@Claudio_Fimiani]

Qué bien hablas porteño! Congrats! Te recomiendo la yerba mate Nobleza Gaucha. Saludos desde Buenos Aires!

[@EllaPress]

I recommend Baohaus in Chinatown! It's super tiny, and you have to eat on the street since they don't have tables, but the baos are super good!

[@devgabriel6898]

Welcome!! Yeah the dollar/peso thing is quite confusing even for us... We have 14 different types of dollar values, being oficial and blue the most common. But there is others as Mep, CCL, Tourist (the highest one), Soja and many more. Just PLEASE be very careful when changing money, dont go alone! Even if the "Arbolito" (Thats the term here) goes to your house. When you guys have the opportunity to go south, i mean, to Bariloche / Villa La Angostura... That will amaze you to new levels :D (Its more expensive tho)

[@pau_stm]

es hermoso Buenos Aires - que la pases de 20!

[@takashicf]

5:31 Cachamate is actually a mid-tier yerba mate, it may be flavored with herbs (like the one you picked) or just plain yerba mate. There isn't really a really BAD yerba mate though, so you picked right!

[@franrojas5753]

When drinking mate its not advisable to let it brew because all te yerba looses the flavor and the drink gains a really strong flavor. It should be poured and drank in the moment

[@Chofa.doodles]

You can try adding sugar or honey on top of the yerba mate. Usually the traditional drinkers will say that's an offense but not everyone enjoys the strong bitter taste. I personally don't mind if it's either with or without. You can also try "mate cocido", this version is a more soft tea-stlye beverage where you use boiling water. Enjoy the rest of your stay! Ps. Advise, don't show your phone too much while you wander downtown's parks 🫣 (microcentro/san telmo)

[@vuelosinlimites9748]

By God woman, how fast you speak, I could not follow you in most of the video 😁, welcome to Argentina and thank you for showing our country. Por Dios mujer, que rápido hablas, no pude seguirte en la mayor parte del video 😁, bienvenida a Argentina y gracias por mostrar nuestro país.

[@bocamitadmasuno]

Bienvenida a la Argentina Un Pais Con Buena Gente!!!!welcome

[@DepressedCapitalist]

Buena gente que hace años vota mierda y sigue comportandose como rebaño mientras nuestra calidad de vida baja y baja cada día.

[@gustavoleandro8852]

Dale otra oportunidad al mate pero esta vez que lo prepare tu amiga 😁 Saludos 👍

[@Neyenn]

Yeah the place where you went at the end of the video with the water and boats, its maybe one of the most expensives places in Buenos Aires. Its where the rich lives in that zone of the city. You described it perfectly tho, terrble music and expensive food.

[@Roycopy]

Hola, compra la yerba mate playadito, es suave, y agregale 2 o 3 cucharadas de azucar, el primer mate va a ser fuerte, el segundo es el bueno, saludos

[@AraceliGonzalez-oq6fh]

La economia 🇦🇷 es una porqueria , pero te puedo asegurar que lo demás de nosotros y nuestro país entero te va agustar mucho a pesar de tantas crisis siempre le ponemos el pecho a las balas y salimos adelante y nos encanta que vengan personas de otros paises y conozcan sobre nosotros, somos solidarios , siempre vas a tener ayuda si necesitas algo. Somos un quilombo hermoso 🤣 Si tenes la posibilidad tenés que conocer Patagonia ( ahora hay mucha nieve) tanto la parte de la Cordillera de los Andes como la parte costera , mucha flora y fauna y ni hablar de los paisajes , uno mas lindo que el otro , también el norte del país es bellisimo, tenes diferentes paisajes y climas para elegir . Mucha suerte en tu estadía 👍

[@MarinaGabrielaQuinteros]

Me hiciste sonreír con tu sugerencia... Es casi igual a una que di yo a otros extranjeros! Nos salta la patagónica desde la entrañas!!! 😂❤

[@AraceliGonzalez-oq6fh]

@@MarinaGabrielaQuinteros tal cual ! Es que la Patagonia entera es increíble , ahora hace frío y no se aprecia bien, en la parte cordillera, los paisajes por la nieve, a menos que la persona sea fanática del frío está ideal para conocer porque hay actividades de la temporada, pero en primavera verano e incluso en otoño ,es la época ideal. Yo estoy en la parte costera , vivo en Trelew , lo que hay es más fauna , porque es pura estepa , ahora están a pleno las ballenas , si vas a península de Valdez vas a verlas y escucharlas en toda la península , ni hablar de los pingüinos , por eso digo que la Patagonia es bellisima en todo sentido y en toda su extensión, si te gusta el mar tenés para elegir playas,una más linda que la otra y quién le guste la montaña y lagos ni hablar , tenemos también para elegir . Somos un país que tenemos de todo para ser una potencia porque no nos falta nada en cuánto a territorio ,clima y tierra fértil para la agricultura y ganadería , lo que falla es la política y el estado , triste.

[@MarinaGabrielaQuinteros]

@@AraceliGonzalez-oq6fh Neuquén, Río Negro y Chubut para mí es como estar en casa. Desde lo personal, nunca sentí que hubieran diferencias entre éstas 3 provincias! Aunque no lo creas con mi marido casi nos mudamos a Trelew por trabajo. Pero terminamos en Córdoba (nada que ver!). Aunque él sí vivió antes de conocerme 3 o 4 años. Como patagónica te cuento que no me gusta la nieve, siento que te limita mucho para hacer actividades y te lo pasas comiendo. En cambio, en verano tenés mil cosas para hacer tanto en la costa como en la montaña... Andar en bici, caminar, correr, nadar, navegar, lo que se te ocurra! Amo el verano en Patagonia, es lo más lindo de la tierra. Si no querés hacer nada, también es fantástica! Te llevas el termo y te perdés en alguna playa (del mar, de los ríos o lagos) sin personas y simplemente disfrutas de los sonidos de la naturaleza! Sin bocinas, sin gritos y ningún tipo de alteración humana! También es espectacular encontrar esos parajes perdidos, en dónde la gente te atiende como si fuera tu familia... Me recuerda tanto a la calidez que tenía mi abuelo para darte lo que tenía y lo que no tenía ❤️

[@AraceliGonzalez-oq6fh]

@@MarinaGabrielaQuinteros así como decís , no tenes tiempo ni forma de aburrirte porque nunca terminas de descubrir lugares y no llegas a recorrer todo , en mí caso amo hacer trekking así que también amo la época primavera verano, imagínate en la cordillera lo que tenés para caminar , es un espectaculo. Acá parte costa también , sólo que no cambias de terreno, médanos y viento pero se disfruta igual. No conozco ni conocí a ningún turista que no se quedará fascinado después de haber hecho la ruta 40 y la 3 , incluso uno mismo nativo de Argentina, tenemos un hermoso país sin dudas !

[@gabriel-cor]

We also have a community of nomads and travellers in mundo lingo, every week we get together on a pub.

[@federicocarnebale]

Very good spanish! 👏🏻

[@juanpilosino]

1) Welcome to the city! My first recommendation would be: eat gnocchi on the 29th, every month we eat "ñoquis" as a tradition and we put money under the plate (google it for more info). Next time you go to chinatown, find the "statue of liberty" in Barrancas de Belgrano (Was made by the same artist as NY's but is smaller and days older). Check for the "iglesia redonda", same area.

[@victorhugocordoba2931]

Bienvenida . Recomendación cambiar dolares en CASAS DE CAMBIO hay muchas .. en Palermo .. cualquiera puede decirte ... haaa el mate se hace con otra yerba 😂😂 esa tiene muchos agregados !! Para mi la mejor Playadito ..😊 😊

[@haedo6]

you definitly must try the regular Yerba. Without herbs

[@Santu1977]

Bienvenidos, very good video and first of all beautiful dogs, my god beautiful. The reaction to "mate" is very realistic, similar to mine when I tried it as a child, after years I can't take it again :(, I'm from the Capital but I must tell you that the culture and idiosyncrasy of the Argentine varies by zone, and each one is Unique and very wonderful according to my experience. I appreciate your video and showing the beauty of my city.

[@Javier-p9l]

La mayopria de los argentinos si queremos comer buena pasta la compramos en un comercio destinado exclusivamente para eso, que lo llamamos Casa de Pasta, y no compramos tanto congelados porque la pasta no es lo mismo que comprarla fresca y hacerla en el mismo día

[@mikibv8007]

Got yerba mate with aromatics... definitely a choice!! haha Also, there is no need to let it brew, pour and drink, pause do whatever, pour and drink.

[@marianolopez380]

debes probar yerba mate playadito es la mejor mas suave y puedes tomar todo el dia en la oficina que no te va a caer mal

[@elprofereacciona]

Great video! We're practically neighbors!

[@Estebanlombardi77]

Te recomiendo la mejor pizza en "El palacio de la pizza"; Avenida Corrientes casi Maipú.
