Am back from Argetina and Uruguay.

Buenos Aires is definitely going into my Top 5 cities.

Promise to reply to everyone whom I owe a reply and to get back through flist backlog :)

ETA: I am through skip-140 and only a day in. No way I can catch on 5 days. If you posted something you think I'll love (and you know what sort of stuff this is: Who, dramas, Bollywood), please link.

I'm sorry I couldn't get back to you in time with restaurants recs, but I'm happy you had a good time anyway :) Let us know how it went, if you feel like it ;)

Don't worry, we ate at some awesome places (even if in one of them I accidentally put olive oil in my cappucino, heh).

And THANK YOU, we went to the tango show you recommended it and it was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.

Whuut? Did you mistake it for something? :P Where did you eat, btw... I'd like to know because if I haven't gone to that restaurant yet and you recommend it, I'd like to try next time I go there. :)

I'm happy you liked it!! Which one did you go? Señor Tango or Esquina Carlos Gardel? I can't watch those shows without thinking I should start going to dancing classes as soon as I can. I love dancing!

Yup, I was zonked and thought it was honey. Don't ask.

We ate in a bunch of places, but I don't think any of them were a name I remember, except cafe Tortoni, and a cafe whose name escapes me, but I'll look up, but Garcia Lorca used to eat there (when I read his poems in Russian translation, I never thought I'd eat where he did :))

We went to ECG and it was amazing.

A post on My Name is Kim Sam Soon: http://shewhohashope.livejournal.com/69744.html

I actually haven't posted anything else in the last four-five days, but I'm on a bit of a KDrama kick, and I wil be seeing Om Shanti Om and/or Saawariya this weekend at the cinema.

Welcome back! I hope you had a wonderful trip.

I've been going crazy over Magicians of Love (three latest post in my lj are full of it) which is wonderful crack - even Fernando's wine red velvet shirt and tartan pants haven't scared me away from it :). The OTP is totally adorable and I love how they've managed to cram every possible soap opera/drama cliché into the plot.

Did you ever finish it, btw? I'm currently on episode 13 and at this rate will have watched all 22 episodes in less than a week :).

I stalled on ep 6, because my subs were horrid and I didn't love it enough to slog through that. I keep planning to get good subs and continue sometime. I do remember the cracktasticness.

Welcome back! Did you take pics?
Don't think I posted anything you'd really care about but it's great to have you back.

I took tons of pics, and will be uploading sometime this weekend.

I always love reading your stuff btw...

Welcome back - glad you had a great time.

And flist backlog is a pain. Although I'm up to skip 100, and that is only since 12 hours ago. I'm addicted too.

Nothing interesting in my LJ - just a discussion on Smith and Jones if you want to look.

Of course, I want. It's an ep I am sort of ambivalent about...

*off to look*

Welcome back!

So what are the other 4 Top cities? And have you visited a lot of countries by now?

Travelling has always just sounded so cool to me, but constantly being in school makes it hard to travel. Someday...

Date: 2007-11-16 05:07 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] dangermousie.livejournal.com
Top 5, in order are:

1. Jerusalem
2. Tokyo
3. Buenos Aires
4. London
5. Sydney.

(if you want Top 10, it's)

6. San Francisco
7. Capetown
8. Amsterdam
9. Barcelona
10. Bruges (or Edinburgh or Auckland or Vancouver, it always changes).

I've been to 26 countries so far.

1 Russia
2 Ukraine
3 Georgia
4 Spain
5 UK
6 France
7 Luxembourg
8 Netherlands
9 Germany
10 Belgium
11 Iceland
12 Sweden
13 Norway
14 Denmark
15 USA
16 Canada
17 Mexico
18 Bahamas
19 Israel
20 Japan
21 South Africa
22 Zimbabwe
23 Australia
24 New Zealand
25 Argentina
26 Uruguay

Am trying to make it so I have been as many countries as I am old, and am getting very close :)

Wow, it seems like all you are missing are the Asian countries. LOL, I'm surprised you haven't been to Taiwan (given your love for twdrama :P) and places like India sound fun, too.

And I'm surprised that Buenos Aires beats London. (Not that I've been to either places, but I've always heard people rave about London, and Buenos Aires hasn't been mentioned much, actually.) Hopefully this Xmas break I can head down to Mexico for a lark. Probably wouldn't have time to go any further, but that's for the future. Buenos Aires is one my top LatinAm cities to visit now.

I did go to Japan and Israel, which are both in Asia :)

Thailand and India are likely to be soon on the list too.

Re: Taiwan. It's like South Korea. I like the dramas but am not interested in the places much. Doesn't look like there is much to see for a 15 hour flight. I'll get to them some time though.

Re: London v. BA. BA was just more exotic for me, I guess.

Have fun in Mexico, it's awesome!
