RE: Travel Pro Places of Interest #21: Famous Recoleta Cemetery! Don't Cry for Me Argentina! Final Resting Place for Evita! Buenos Aires Argentina! Part One (12 minute video)
AS an expat resident in BsAs for years now, it was very intriguing for me to see this video through the eyes of a visitor. Yes, I've been to the Cementerio de Recoleta several times, and seen the Tomb of the Familia Duarte, and the final resting places of so many other great figures in the history of Argentina.
I've also been to the shopping mall across the street from the main entrance, and seen the six McDonalds. Yup, six of them in one mall; two fullsize Mickey D's and four McDonalds Junior. If that's not cultural imperialism, I don't know what you'd call it. Successful marketing, maybe? ;)
Anyhow, I follow your adventures with interest, keep 'em coming!
Oh wow! Thank you for leaving such a nice and interesting comment. BsAs really left a great impression on me. I certainly see why you as an expat would make this place home. Great food, great culture, and quite affordable as well. Hope to see stop my blog again soon. Have a great day! From Prague Czech Rep. -Dan
Ohhh, Prague! The Czech Republic! That sounds sooooooo interesting . Will you be visiting Slovakia?
I'm just playing it by ear. But I'm not looking to move around so much. I travel Slow and Relaxed. May hang here in Prague for a month.
