Ski and Wine South America

My good friend from Buenos Aires, Argentina, Martin and two other friends have just started an incredible new outfitter company called Ski and Wine South America. You can choose 7 or 14 days packages from guided tours of the wineries in Argentina and Chile, heli-skiing or horseback riding in the Andes, or high altitude golfing in Mendoza, Argentina and Chile. Check out their website at Ski and Wine

Letter to dad from Buenos Aires

I love it here dad. Just love it. I went to a market yesterday in an area, San Telmo, that could best be compared to what Greenwich used to be (so I hear). Very bohemian and artsy but nice. There were professional tango dancers and street performers.
One thing that really has made an impression on me is yerba mate. Last night at the hostel I met a few new friends and we shared some mate. It´s a tea that is drunk among friends. It´s kinda like a peace pipe sort of thing. Anyway, I want to bring some back but I´m afraid customs is going to think I have drugs!!! Gotta go for now wasting time
when I could be exploring!
