Argentina, my second home, let me tell you about one of most beautiful places in the world, sometimes called the Paris of the South. It was founded by Pedro de Mendorz in 1536, and in 1994 was declared autonomous city. Buenos Aires declared the capital of the Republic in 1880, its population amounts to around 3 million inhabitants with another 3 million traveling in to the city everyday to work. Up to mid-XX, la Argentina was a peaceful territory for thousands of European families seeking  shelter, running away from bombing. A short 14 hour flight from Dallas or Miami, it is well worth the trip, There is so much to see and do, music, tango, wines, food and the architecture. Argentina is one of most generous countries of the world, due to its assorted landscapes, its benign climates and, of course, the quality of its people, "if you think that I am boasting, just ask anyone who has visited the land. As an ancient 'quichua' poem says: "You don't love what what you don't know, you don't defend what you don't love". There is no doubt - absolutely- that the best way of loving a country is getting to know it.......
