My window on the surroundings.

Stay hungry, stay foolish and discover off the beaten tracks places.

I adore discovering new things that only few people know about. I think that Buenos Aires offers plenty of interesting experiences and places that are beyond the usual recommendations. Here are only a few ...
Here, in the local football team Argentino Jrs, Maradona started his professional career and the neighborhood has plenty of landmarks related to his life there. You cannot miss Casa Maradone if you want to see how he lived with his parents while playing (2257, Lascano St. www.lacasaded10s.com).The Argentino Jrs museum and the memorabilia shop next to one of the entrances. Ig you just walk around you'll find plenty of wall painting...

Open at night and famous for its live music and the rockstars that played there at the beginning of their carreer. It started in 1930 as a small wharehouse and turned into a bar at the end of the 1970s.

From the outside tables, you look at the building where Julio Cortazar spent part of his childhood, incredible provincial atmosphere. Excellent breakfast and lunches, you can dine at night during weekends, better with reservation!

Easiest way to move

Metrobus (dedicated lanes for buses) and subway (tube) are the fastest means of public transport. From the aptm you have 146 and 105 buses going downtown. You can get off Avenida Juan B. Justo and get 34 or 109 to Palermo. From the aptm you can also get 78 bus to Lacroze train St. and take the B subway line to downtown. You can use the sube card I leave at home and charge it in any kiosk showing the Sube logo. If you want to move by taxi, I reccomend the BAtaxi app you can download on your mobile. From and to Retiro, the fastest way is the San Martin train line, you can get at Villa del Parque
