The best holiday I’ve ever had was be on Winter of 2012… I
traveled to Buenos Aires, Argentina.
I traveled to this city to play on a Classical Guitar
concert so I arrived three days before to sightseeing the city. On those days I
went to La Boca neighborhood, a really famous place for his tango shows,
colorful houses and grills restaurants. I walked for Caminito, Plaza de Mayo,
Puerto Madero –A beautiful port with museums ships-, and San Telmo, a bohemian
neighborhood.
I have a lot of good memories of those holydays, one of the
most funniest are maybe the airport strike… When I was on Santiago’s airport a
worker says me “The Buenos Aires airport was on strike so I you will need take
other Airbus”. This Airbus arrived at other airport at 32 kilometers of Buenos
Aires…
So, when I arrived to there a worker of this airport says me
“The highway is blocked by strikers so you will have to wait maybe three of
four in order to the policeman liberate the road of the barricades… Oh! What a
bad luck! Finally I waited just an hour, I took a bus to the downtown and I
came to the Hotel without other problems.
This travel out of Chile was the second on my life and the
first to play a solo recital. This was in a quaint museum with a very nice
public ¡They congratulate me a lot!.
The return to Chile was nice but I was a little bit sad… I
played a good concert, I met new people, new places, new food, a new big city,
a different culture... All the memories are really good so I’m waiting with
enthusiasm the opportunity to come back to continue sightseeing the enormous
city of Buenos Aires.
