Hubby just got back from spending a month in Rosario Argentina. I missed him so much. I wasn't able to go for this trip. Maybe next time.

Buenios Aires was a beautiful city...Rosario which is 4 hours away is a poorer city of 1 million people. The buildings are not taken care of and the building quality is poor. The hotel hubby stayed in was a year old but he thought is was at least 20 years old. Does that speak for itself? Such a shame.
They eat "meat"...beef....very little chicken or pork....just "meat". That's what's on the menus at resturants....any kind of beef you want. Very good beef...

Unfortunately, the fruits and vegetables are very poor quality...the worst of ours is the best of theirs. Bruised fruit, wilted, browned lettuce, potatoes that taste like dirt. No tin foil, saran wrap, baggies, no wash clothes or even little fridge storage containers. So much they don't have....

Their great accomplishments are leather goods, beef and good wine....hubby brought me back a leather purse. It feels like velvet and I love it. Thanks Baby! He also brought back 4 bottles of wine, but only 3 made it LOL He ended up with purple shirts and pants and a wine soaked suitcase LOL LOL Thank goodness for Oxyclean! It works!

Thanks for sharing. I can't imagine a whole month away. Does he have to go back?
