Had a week in Bs As just before Easter. Back in the desert now, but still living off the good memories.
First discovered the city in '95, after touring round some other parts of S America. Loved the place and have been coming back ever since, once maybe twice a year only, always on vacation and never here for longer than a week or two at a stretch. If I can escape for 3 weeks, I try to take in at least one other place, as a contrast. In the early days it used to be Brazil (Rio, SP, Fortaleza etc) more recently it's been Chile (Santiago mainly) It's great to visit more than one country on a single trip, as you get first hand experience of just how different the cultures are. Speaking the language is the other big key to having a good time - it really pays off if you can trouble to learn some before you arrive.
Bs As has an atmosphere and style of its own. It's a great place to hang out in when the weather's warm and sunny, with nice parks and terrace cafes. It's a lot more European in orientation and outlook than other cities in S America (think Rome, Paris etc) It's somewhere I can blend in and feel at home. The fun areas are near each other, walkable or short taxi rides, not scattered around miles apart. Hotels are not that cheap but there's a strong apartment scene and the peso is weak against the dollar or euro - your money stretches a long way which means you can do things in style on a short visit. The Argentinos like to be out there partying and socialising, which may explain why there are so many good bars, coffee joints, restaurants etc around in the centre. Walk down the shopping streets and you'll be carried along by the mass of people out and about. The Italian influence is strong, you can see it in the faces of the beautiful women in the malls, smell it as you walk past the pizzerias and cafeterias, and hear it in the sound of the language when you first hear castellano spoken here. Corruption and scamming are around too - there's poverty and crime, but I've found it a safe place to walk around any time of day or night. Places stay open very late and the range of night-time options is up there with the best.
For me, BsAs was actually at its best for mongering before the big economic downturn at the end of '01. Because of the overvalued currency, hot women from all the neighbouring countries, especially Brazil (many of them part timers) used to flock here. You could find 8s or 9s regularly in joints like Shampoo and NewPort although it was an expensive place to visit before the crash. Now you can still find good material but you have to search a bit harder and be patient.
I've always gone with the boliche scene, never privados or agencies / internet. That's just my personal thing. You pay extra for that scene but part of the adventure is the Chase and the chance to eyeball and chat to lots of chicas before you make your selection. There'll be nights when you go away empty handed but then you live for another day. Looks and chemistry (onda) are the keys for me, services and price follow on after that. I usually repeat if I've liked a girl (second or third time round can be better when both of you have figured out what turns the other on) In Bs As in recent years my satisfaction rate on salidas has been about 95%. That may be because I'm getting older (or choosier or less demanding, or all three) but there's something about Argentinian women and the conditions they are operating under in Bs As that makes them brilliant service providers and pleasure partners. For no strings, "ships in the night" shared pleasure experiences, they take some beating. Brazilian girls I would rate up there with them (especially the ones you meet outside of Brazil) With an Argentinian girl you have to work a bit harder to build up the onda but the top end ones have real class and style. I monger occasionally in Madrid and Barcelona (to keep me sane between BsAs trips) and it's the Argentinas that I will tend to pick there when the chance offers. In the UK & Northern Europe scene, the Czech girls are the prettiest for my taste, but there is no real equivalent to the boliches and the hottest girls for window shopping are in the lap dancing clubs.
This last trip, I sampled Madahos, Black, Hippopotamus, Cafe Orleans, NewPort, Cocodrilo and Plays (these last two for the first time) I was based in Recoleta and didn't have time to revisit the Triangle. Sadly I only discovered AP a few days before I left, and with limited access to internet, I'm still just scratching the surface. It's an eye opener, so much good information there. In my week, I scored 4 encounters - all of these rated 8 or above in terms of the overall experience (one was a 10) For three of these, I paid the figure I asked for. For the other, the chica got the price she asked for. I'll try and provide some detailed posts on these adventures when I get the chance. There'll be little or anything new for you experienced guys, but could be of interest to any newbies. Cheers!
