I love Buenos Aires. Can't wait to return. I'd love to retire in Argentina. Good cheap food, cheap rent, reasonably safe, good transportation system, high standard of living if you bring foreign currency. A sophisticated world class city where anyone from any part of the world seems welcome. I feel it wouldn't take long for me to integrate myself into the city's culture, it's version of espanol, it's way of life. A big country to explore with just about every type of climate represented. Only thing I saw there I didn't like - young mothers and children sleeping in the street. I'm sure it's by no means not the only place where that happens, but it was the first place I ever witnessed that. Inequality I guess is the flip side of that high standard of living for privileged people like me. There's got to be a better way, but it is what it is.
Las personas que viven en la calle tienen centros dónde pueden dormir y comer sin tiempo límite pero no les gusta seguir las reglas como no pelear y ser higiénicos ya que se les ofrece ropa y poder bañarse ext y no quieren, justamente por eso acaba de salir una nueva ley en la ciudad en la que hace ilegal dormir en las calles y quieran o no si duermen en la calle van a ser llevados por la policía a esos centros
Just to update you Keenan, Argentina restaurants don't move fast. People there sit down and actually enjoy the food, the environment and just relax and it's not uncommon for dinner to take 2 hours. Waiters don't bug you every 3 to 5 minutes like in the US and quickly deliver your food and hurry you out the door. Slow down and relax for your meal. I had to get used to the slow service in restaurants it's how things are done there, they're not pushy but they allow you time to take in the experience.
Keenan, I watch a lot of travel videos and recently found your channel. I must say you’ve become one of my favorites. I enjoy your style of telling a story in your videos. Especially that you go into everyday spots and not just tourist areas. Keep up the great content brother!
The food down there must be dread. Argentinian cuisine is increasingly more popular in Europe. Even in my city in the Netherlands, there are several Argentinian steakhouses. Years ago I used to buy wine from a Argentinian woman who ran a wine shop here. Fantastic wine, shame it closed because she wanted to return to Argentina. And yes, she was one Hell of a good looking woman, serious pretty!
A place this beautiful doesn't seem possible! Like what is going on with these sightseeing spots in Argentina, that is mind-blowing!! New fan from Bangalore, full support
Great presentation. I spent a couple of months in Buenos Aires and will likely be there during December er and January upcoming. What a joyful place to be.
I am argentinean living in Germany. A few months ago I was talking with a person who visited Argentina not so long ago and she told me she was shocked about how many street musician play jazz and a lot of cool music. IT's so crazy that I almost forgot about this and is so true. Here I listen good street music too but they are reproducing classical music, its execution not free inspiration,. I miss that.
En Argentina no ves la miseria, pobreza, suciedad y la inseguridad que se ve en Brasil. en Buenos Aires no debe haber ni el 20% de homeless que se ven en SP. me gusta la comida de aquí ya que en Brasil todo es arroz y frijoles. En Argentina es buena carne como dios manda.
A mi me causa risa como los seguidores de Lula da Silva se suelen regocijar por como Brasil baja la pobreza constantemente y tienen un 30% de pobres y Argentina 47% de pobres, me puse a ver como miden la pobreza en Brasil y resulta que es la del Banco Mundial, es decir una familia se considera pobre si tienen ingresos inferiores a 640 reales al mes que son poco menos de 110.000 pesos argentinos al mes mientras que en Argentina se considera pobre a una familia con dos hijos cuando ganan menos de 920.000 pesos al mes, si en Brasil se considerara pobre con los números de Argentina el 68% de los brasileños sería considerados pobres
The comparison is absolutely ridiculous. I love our Cuban brothers and sisters, but man are we ethnically and culturally different. Also the infrastructure of our country is a million times better... Both places have their charm, but let's not be delusional about how different they are...

You are right New York pizza is different, because the glacial sediment filtered water from the underground aquaphors and reservoirs that feed the New York water shed adds great flavor to the dough.

Ok, you got me with a shout out to "the undomiciled brother", great to hear an American with empathy. As a Canadian we suffer from a lack of empathy too but I found places like Atlanta awesome but a real every man for himself vibe in some places. I live Caracas for a few months in 2003 and loved it. Going to B.A. this December and really stoked on your content as I haven't booked where I'm staying yet. Trying to decide whether to book an airbnb Summer Central to the subway stations and stay at the same place for the whole time. Or maybe book a few different places as I'm staying for 3 weeks. Anyways, hope the rest of your trip was good. I'll check out the rest of the content and subscribe. Bom Voyage brother! P.S. Yes we make our edibles a little bit. Too strong but I find down south. It's not quite the same as the crazy Canadians LOL! Rule of thumb for that is you can always eat more but you can't eat less once you've swallowed it. Joe just have a little tiny nibble off the corner and wait for the 6 hours. That's one of the reasons it always catches. People is to eat it and don't feel anything for a half hour and then they eat the rest of the piece. 2 hours later they're crawling on the floor. Just saying could be fun?!? Just go slow
My hosts gave me blood soup in Portugal, because they were snickering I could tell it was a challenge food, but it was really good! Never been to Brazil, really liked Argentina. Liked Buenos Aires, liked the portenos! Also visited Lima, plus Nicaragua. Lived in Chile, Costa Rica, Honduras. Would like to visit various places in Panama, but so far Argentina is tops.
I lived in Buenos Aires Argentina for 10 years. The best and most afford international ciity to actuality live in, I also visited Havana, Cuba. Two different cities but great in their own way.
Thank you for the video! I've been wanting to go there for a long time. I wanted to move there (from the US), and work there, but since the economy is so bad it doesn't seem wise. I'll definitely go to visit (especially if it's cheap!!), and check out Santiago de Chile before coming home to the EEUU. Ya hablo español, so I think it would be a blast!
Those markets really do something for us. We’d really be into that. Strange seeing people bundled up with winter but I say that from Palm Springs where it was 112° today 🌴
You are right about our African mix. We didn't have a big african population ever but we mixed. They were always treated as equals and we didn't have segregation. That is why you can see people with darker skin because they had african blood but we don't make any distinction between each other based on our skin color
Sugerencia: Si estas en argentina recorriendo la ciudad de Buenos Aires la música tiene que ser del pais que estas mostrando. En diferentes momentos de este vídeo sonó música del caribe o de otras regiones de latinoamerica.Nosotros tenemos melodías maravillosas de diferentes géneros musicales, para Bs As podes ambientar con tango o rock nacional. Saludos!
Queda mejor si ambientas la musica tipica de cada pais a los videos. A mo tambien me hizo ruido esa musica de fondo que es linda pero no es de argentina.
Since 1816 (year of independence) until now, the bigger immigrant groups were Italians and Spaniards (the latter were already present before independence obviously), and behind them Paraguayans, Bolivians, Chileans, Peruvians, French, Germans, Syrians, Portuguese, Askenazim, Polish...
I loved Buenos Aires. But Rio de Janeiro is the most beautiful city I have ever seen. The Afro- Brazilian culture and musical scene are awesome. Rio de Janeiro is more like Havana Cuba than Buenos Aires Argentina.
Rio Janeiro had me in a complete vice grip.... I left Rio for Salvador and instantly questioned why I did it... Next time I think I might just stick around Rio.... Although, for content purposes, I should probably bounce around a little right? *Sigh* Havana is amazing.... I am in love with the spirit of the people....
Man I loved this! It had to be cold cause of the coats I saw. And what was that you were drinking?? Also, strangest soup I've eaten? Haitian Fish Head Soup ( actually was pretty good lol). Safe travels doc !
At one time there was a sizable black population in Argentina. But in the late 1800s the government there, like in Brazil encouraged whites from northern Italy, Spain and Germany to emigrate to Argentina with the hope of diluting the nation's black population. It succeeded in Argentina, but of course not in Brazil because of the sheer size of black population in Brazil. If people can't exploit, mistreat us black people, they want to get rid of us - same all over the world.
They are some few thousands (that mean, way less than 1%) scattered all over the country and most of them are immigrants. Another thing are people with a visible level of black ancestry but very admixtured, that in United States are considered black but here not. This people in colonial times were called _mulatos_ (mix among black and white) and _zambos_ (mix among amerindian and black). Both groups are probably 1% of the population each one and the majority are Argentines, but there is not much knowledge about their ancestry (usually even themselves don't know that they have black ancestry).
@@DONECPERFICIAM-qs2vt not, it's exactly the opposite. People in general aren't very interested in this kind of things, but ancestries from 19th & 20th centuries immigrants are way more easy to trace until some point. For example, most people with ancestry from Cape Verde (even in the cases where they have other ancestries on a bigger degree) usually know it, since immigrants from there (who were black for the most part) were free and arrived since late 19th century until the 1940s (when that place was part of Portugal). On the other hand, people with African ancestry from the sl4ve trade of the colonial era, not only is very admixtured but usually don't know this part of their ancestry. The same goes for people with indigenous ancestry (except in some regions where is very strong), that usually is admixtured too. _Mestizos_ (mix among amerindian and white) are like 20% of the total population (and most of them are Argentines) and usually don't know that part of their ancestors were indigenous.
@@KeenanLambert198900+ from Chicago. Same with Brazil. I’ve seen them as high as 1200 also. It’s wild because elsewhere I’ve been in South America(Colombia, Ecuador, Peru) ive gotten for under 500 in some instances.
@@KeenanLambert198 en realidad se prefiere el cambio de divisa en un lugar no oficial, porque las casas de cambio oficiales suelen estafar (te darán menos pesos por 100 dólares). Un cambiador no oficial, se acerca mucho más al valor de cambio de dólar a pesos, o sea que no te estará y usará el valor de cambio oficial para darte la cantidad correcta.
Went to Buenos Aries in May of 2023 and am going back this coming October. Definitely has a euro feel to the city, especially the downtown centro district where all the classic architecture is AND I agree, it has that South American flavor mixed in, something that Europe does not have when it comes to the euro feel. I would remind people that you can also do the Western Union style of sending yourself money to get the Blue Rate, its a little more consistent than going straight to the random dudes on the street but techinically you could get more for your buck of those dudes.
How it works in other parts of the country with the blue rate change? It is possible also in Patagonia or little village or i have to change all i need in Buenos Aires? If yes, it is safe to change a real big amount?
As a brazilian, its obvious that Argentina is much cleaner,organized and less violent.,maybe it has something to do with multiculturalism (am I allowed to say this?) . We just have some of the best beaches in the world and I would never survive away from one. Some argentinians agree with me...they are colonizing Buzios,a small beach town in my home state of Rio.
Hey, Brutha Keenan, thanks for the Aregentina video! Six weeks from my Panama trip. I'm excited, but the cost of living there, specifically Panama City, has become Americanized. Of course, I discovered Panama during the pandemic, so the cost probably rebounded plus rose because of the country's increased popularity. What do you think?
Yo Breda mi waan ask di I a ting how mi can shout yu or if yu can gi mi a shout whenever yu can zeen!! Give thanks Breda, always good content and keep yu head pon a swivel!!
Bruh, when you get cash counted by those machines, you'd be well advised to count the pesos manually, separately. You are guaranteed to get ripped off by looking only at the machine "displayed" number.!
"Cuba with a little bit o make up!" Damn! You killed, us man!! Cruel description. Truthful, but cruel!! I'm glad you enjoyed the visit! Hope you come around again.
Hispaniola , Really Keenan ? As a Spaniard ... how would you have been treated by the French ? Why not Cuba ? They would have been very rich at that point in time with the sugar and molasses. Argentinian beef is grass fed not corn fed like north america
Great video. Love your style. Did you feel any bad vibe in BA...? I mean not being white. I have seen videos stating that there's racism in BA... Also, how about Argentinas... Friendly? Do you have a nightlife video?
@@KeenanLambert198Great. Looking forward to your videos. I have visited many cities in Cuba. All full of friendly people. I am tempted to visit BA, but not sure if the racist rumors are true or not. Not being white myself I wonder if people in Argentina would be friendly as in Cuba or not.
@@viajandomundo421 Cubans I think that are somewhat "famous" for being friendly, as Brazilians. Argentines are not like that, especially in big cities, but it depends... About r4c1sm, there is, although less than many foreigners think, and it's a bit more directed against amerindians (native rac1al group from the Americas), which are a visible minority (like 6/7% of the population), than against blacks, which by the way are less than 1% of the population.
@@viajandomundo421No hay racismo en Argentina!! Solo excepciones de discriminación como en todos lados! Los videos que circulan sobre racismo son falsos y mal intencionados hacia la nueva política que rige al país (y la mayoría del pueblo argentino eligió). Sos bienvenido y serás muy bien recibido! Saludos 🇦🇷
There is racism all over the world. but in Argentina people don't care where you come from, as long as you respect and are polite they will be with you too. everyone is welcome to Argentina. greetings!
@@martinerdozain1623 yes!!! There isn’t much Argentina music for licensing in the UA-cam studio…. I needed something uptempo, so tango wouldn’t work there… I opted to cross the border and use a song that matched the bohemian vibe of Buenos Aires.
@@KeenanLambert198 , you should try tried de "Candombe", is embeded in Buenos Aires ( and in general de "rio de la plata" culture).. The difference with tango is that while tango is more related to europiean inmigrants specially french ones; the Cantombe is mor related to the african influence. IN the rest of the country you could find other rithems more related to pre-colombinian times. ( like the, chacarera,malambo, chamamé, )
I have a regular office job just like everybody else…. The ads you that run during the videos kick back money to google and then to me…. Thank you for helping me live a dream AJ.
If I was a Spaniard in the 1850s I would have to say Cuba right off the bat. Pizza is a toss up in foreign countries. It would't be my first choice in a new country and culture.
Dear friend , the food in Argentina it is of high quality , as for the music of the video , the cumbia it's not Argentina , is of Colombia. Argentina is Tango or rock.
@@KeenanLambert198 And Buenos Aires seems little to you, and you compare it with Cuba? a Caribbean country, with a multicultural Cosmopolitan City, the Europe of Latin America, with an Island? I do not understand friend
@@BigmasteMe da la sensación de que como No ven gente "morena" en Argentina, se sienten amenazados y fuera de lugar, todo lo comparan con USA y su racismo...

Those markets really do something for us. We’d really be into that. Strange seeing people bundled up with winter but I say that from Palm Springs where it was 112° today 🌴
We are in winter and it is cold, in the southern half of the country it is all snowy
Last week Argentina was the coldest country on earth 😬
You are right about our African mix. We didn't have a big african population ever but we mixed. They were always treated as equals and we didn't have segregation. That is why you can see people with darker skin because they had african blood but we don't make any distinction between each other based on our skin color
blessings man !! looks like its winter down there 🥶
Sugerencia: Si estas en argentina recorriendo la ciudad de Buenos Aires la música tiene que ser del pais que estas mostrando. En diferentes momentos de este vídeo sonó música del caribe o de otras regiones de latinoamerica.Nosotros tenemos melodías maravillosas de diferentes géneros musicales, para Bs As podes ambientar con tango o rock nacional. Saludos!
Bue cualquiera ajsjja
que horror jajaja, esas confusiones que pueden asociarnos al inframundo
Queda mejor si ambientas la musica tipica de cada pais a los videos. A mo tambien me hizo ruido esa musica de fondo que es linda pero no es de argentina.
I'been to Brazil. Just wondering is the weather similar in Argentina?
Great channel
Respect family!!!
Reason why there's a lot of pasta places is because of the Italian influence, most of its immigrants are of Italian ancestry.
Since 1816 (year of independence) until now, the bigger immigrant groups were Italians and Spaniards (the latter were already present before independence obviously), and behind them Paraguayans, Bolivians, Chileans, Peruvians, French, Germans, Syrians, Portuguese, Askenazim, Polish...
Don't forget about Asians.

I loved Buenos Aires. But Rio de Janeiro is the most beautiful city I have ever seen. The Afro- Brazilian culture and musical scene are awesome. Rio de Janeiro is more like Havana Cuba than Buenos Aires Argentina.
Rio Janeiro had me in a complete vice grip.... I left Rio for Salvador and instantly questioned why I did it... Next time I think I might just stick around Rio.... Although, for content purposes, I should probably bounce around a little right? *Sigh*
Havana is amazing.... I am in love with the spirit of the people....
Man I loved this! It had to be cold cause of the coats I saw. And what was that you were drinking?? Also, strangest soup I've eaten? Haitian Fish Head Soup ( actually was pretty good lol). Safe travels doc !
going to cuba in september but i am for sure going to argentina next man
Argentina looks like my next destination over Brazil - don’t eat much meat but I will want to experience that steak
No entiendo, tu próximo destino es Argentina o Brasíl??!!!
I heard you could count the numbers of black people in that country on your fingers and toes
Fingers will be adequate!
At one time there was a sizable black population in Argentina. But in the late 1800s the government there, like in Brazil encouraged whites from northern Italy, Spain and Germany to emigrate to Argentina with the hope of diluting the nation's black population. It succeeded in Argentina, but of course not in Brazil because of the sheer size of black population in Brazil. If people can't exploit, mistreat us black people, they want to get rid of us - same all over the world.
They are some few thousands (that mean, way less than 1%) scattered all over the country and most of them are immigrants.
Another thing are people with a visible level of black ancestry but very admixtured, that in United States are considered black but here not. This people in colonial times were called _mulatos_ (mix among black and white) and _zambos_ (mix among amerindian and black). Both groups are probably 1% of the population each one and the majority are Argentines, but there is not much knowledge about their ancestry (usually even themselves don't know that they have black ancestry).
@@dalerojo2.091i think they inow wweell their ancestries…..
@@DONECPERFICIAM-qs2vt not, it's exactly the opposite. People in general aren't very interested in this kind of things, but ancestries from 19th & 20th centuries immigrants are way more easy to trace until some point.
For example, most people with ancestry from Cape Verde (even in the cases where they have other ancestries on a bigger degree) usually know it, since immigrants from there (who were black for the most part) were free and arrived since late 19th century until the 1940s (when that place was part of Portugal). On the other hand, people with African ancestry from the sl4ve trade of the colonial era, not only is very admixtured but usually don't know this part of their ancestry.
The same goes for people with indigenous ancestry (except in some regions where is very strong), that usually is admixtured too. _Mestizos_ (mix among amerindian and white) are like 20% of the total population (and most of them are Argentines) and usually don't know that part of their ancestors were indigenous.

Great video man. Tickets to BA are insanely priced.
How much are you seeing it at?
@@KeenanLambert198900+ from Chicago. Same with Brazil. I’ve seen them as high as 1200 also. It’s wild because elsewhere I’ve been in South America(Colombia, Ecuador, Peru) ive gotten for under 500 in some instances.
I got it last min for 800 but we got 600 from here…..
450-550 on the low end for Brazil… 🔥🫡
@@KeenanLambert198 do you normally fly into São Paulo or Rio?
@@KeenanLambert198 950 and up. Looking to really go around December time.
Thanks!
Thanks so much for watching and your continued support James! ✊🏾🫡
@6:41 that soup looks amazing bruddah!
Colombia if I was a Spanish person with USD of course
Cerca 1850 though….. You’ll have the Spanish peso and to bring yourself and family over on a ship…. Colombia though….
Shout out Keenan, where you been man. I hear the beef there is 1st class #1 .
So for sure, I'm taking my talents and taking my chances in Colombia. Argentina is beautiful; however I feel I have a better life in Colombia.
keenan since milei is in office it´s not illegal anymore to buy dollar blue or the so called "illegal dolar" and neither is exchanging it
Was legislation passed? Or just an executive order to legalize the practice?
@@KeenanLambert198 en realidad se prefiere el cambio de divisa en un lugar no oficial, porque las casas de cambio oficiales suelen estafar (te darán menos pesos por 100 dólares).
Un cambiador no oficial, se acerca mucho más al valor de cambio de dólar a pesos, o sea que no te estará y usará el valor de cambio oficial para darte la cantidad correcta.
If you want to try a nice hearty soup...try El Locro!!!😍😍😍
Went to Buenos Aries in May of 2023 and am going back this coming October. Definitely has a euro feel to the city, especially the downtown centro district where all the classic architecture is AND I agree, it has that South American flavor mixed in, something that Europe does not have when it comes to the euro feel. I would remind people that you can also do the Western Union style of sending yourself money to get the Blue Rate, its a little more consistent than going straight to the random dudes on the street but techinically you could get more for your buck of those dudes.
Keenan nice to see you in another country.
Thanks my friend... Did you see the Ecuador mini series?
I’m trying to convince my cousins to go next year but they don’t want to smh…. Is it a 10/10 city?
Tiene absolutamente de todo, es como si fuera Europa en Sudamérica, además si llevan divisa extranjera, les alcanzará para darse muchos gustos.
@@Franco_Cttithis is great to hear! I convinced them to go; we will be going around February/March 🇦🇷
How it works in other parts of the country with the blue rate change? It is possible also in Patagonia or little village or i have to change all i need in Buenos Aires? If yes, it is safe to change a real big amount?
I would get all I need in Buenos Aires or another big city before going to a little village.
Puedes usar western union para acceder a tu dinero a una tasa cercana al blue. Y encontrarás locales en todo en país.
As a brazilian, its obvious that Argentina is much cleaner,organized and less violent.,maybe it has something to do with multiculturalism (am I allowed to say this?) . We just have some of the best beaches in the world and I would never survive away from one. Some argentinians agree with me...they are colonizing Buzios,a small beach town in my home state of Rio.
That money exchange scene was dope, a lot of notes for 100 US I see!
100 in Argentina goes very far!
How much to rent apartments
@@KeenanLambert198 how much did you get exactly for your $100 at the unofficial place?
@@cdobersteifyI think it was 118.000 ARS
Hey, Brutha Keenan, thanks for the Aregentina video! Six weeks from my Panama trip. I'm excited, but the cost of living there, specifically Panama City, has become Americanized. Of course, I discovered Panama during the pandemic, so the cost probably rebounded plus rose because of the country's increased popularity. What do you think?
BLB to Hav...... book it!!!!! The prices have certainly gone up but the price of consumption is not too bad...
Is it winter there
Sí, estamos en temporada de invierno (Junio, Julio y Agosto) ❄️🇦🇷
I love how he puts on Brazilian music in the intro LOL
The available music in the UA-cam studio from Argentina was terrible.... So I hopped the border to the Northeast.
Trip booked….Thanks ❤
Argentine food is way above any other food in S. America especially Brazil. Brazil isn't even as good as Chile or Ecuador.
Damn!!!!!!
I loved the food in Salvador though
Peru has by far the best cuisine in LATAM. If you are talking about beef then you have a point.
@@neonomad1939facts
I don’t know man. Brazilian churrascaria is as good as any Argentinian asado.
@@didiermontagnier6114 respected! 👀👀
Another great video, Keenan!
Yo Breda mi waan ask di I a ting how mi can shout yu or if yu can gi mi a shout whenever yu can zeen!! Give thanks Breda, always good content and keep yu head pon a swivel!!
Let’s go!!!🎉🎉
'when the customer service is trash, then the food must be all good 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
How many days were you there?
Bruh, when you get cash counted by those machines, you'd be well advised to count the pesos manually, separately. You are guaranteed to get ripped off by looking only at the machine "displayed" number.!
Tks. much
Thanks so much for watching family!
Deberias ir a cordoba a sus pueblitos son muy bonitos.
9:30 Brother, how much did the peso quote cost you?
@@cmbr68 family, end of May when I filmed this they gave me 1180 to 1.
I think it’s 1300 to 1 now
ive seen other youtubers say if you send yourself money through western union you get the blue rate?
Try to do videos always after 10:30 am so we can see the shops open and more people
I was filming at 5PM lol
It just wasn’t live
Keep up
Stay up
With the 1&only

Brasil for me but i have not been to Argentina before
Excellant steak dinners is a must. Four day visit few times a year❤
This wood fires way of cooking is away of life.i think for Norah American Argentina best place to travel❤
You should come during the spring season
Great video
Thanks for watching this one!
¿Eres cubano Keenan?
Yo? No, soy 🇯🇲
"Cuba with a little bit o make up!" Damn! You killed, us man!! Cruel description. Truthful, but cruel!! I'm glad you enjoyed the visit! Hope you come around again.
Se nota que no conocés Cuba
@@alejandrapena4814 I do know CUba, that's why said that calling as a "Cuba with a little bit of make up" was cruel, It does not make us any justice
You have to be careful if they change counterfeit.
My man broke wind😂😂😂😂
The wine loosened me up... No Diddy
Hispaniola , Really Keenan ? As a Spaniard ... how would you have been treated by the French ?
Why not Cuba ? They would have been very rich at that point in time with the sugar and molasses.
Argentinian beef is grass fed not corn fed like north america
The good thing about Argentinian currency, its worth so little that there is no fake pesos. Its no good business for the counterfeiters...
Great video. Love your style. Did you feel any bad vibe in BA...? I mean not being white.
I have seen videos stating that there's racism in BA... Also, how about Argentinas... Friendly? Do you have a nightlife video?
Both videos coming!!!!! Nightlife coming next….. Then a little bit on the race piece only a 10 min video.
@@KeenanLambert198Great. Looking forward to your videos. I have visited many cities in Cuba. All full of friendly people. I am tempted to visit BA, but not sure if the racist rumors are true or not. Not being white myself I wonder if people in Argentina would be friendly as in Cuba or not.
@@viajandomundo421 Cubans I think that are somewhat "famous" for being friendly, as Brazilians. Argentines are not like that, especially in big cities, but it depends...
About r4c1sm, there is, although less than many foreigners think, and it's a bit more directed against amerindians (native rac1al group from the Americas), which are a visible minority (like 6/7% of the population), than against blacks, which by the way are less than 1% of the population.
@@viajandomundo421No hay racismo en Argentina!! Solo excepciones de discriminación como en todos lados! Los videos que circulan sobre racismo son falsos y mal intencionados hacia la nueva política que rige al país (y la mayoría del pueblo argentino eligió).
Sos bienvenido y serás muy bien recibido! Saludos 🇦🇷
There is racism all over the world. but in Argentina people don't care where you come from, as long as you respect and are polite they will be with you too. everyone is welcome to Argentina. greetings!
In Buenos Aires. But you started with a brazilian song??
@@martinerdozain1623 yes!!! There isn’t much Argentina music for licensing in the UA-cam studio…. I needed something uptempo, so tango wouldn’t work there… I opted to cross the border and use a song that matched the bohemian vibe of Buenos Aires.
@@KeenanLambert198 , you should try tried de "Candombe", is embeded in Buenos Aires ( and in general de "rio de la plata" culture).. The difference with tango is that while tango is more related to europiean inmigrants specially french ones; the Cantombe is mor related to the african influence. IN the rest of the country you could find other rithems more related to pre-colombinian times. ( like the, chacarera,malambo, chamamé, )
Same as in BKK, Thailand. I go to the "Other Bank" to get more for $$$ rate.
No entendí 🤔Argentina es un país y Brasil otro país ❤👍🇦🇷
@@normadiplacido2902 dijo Tailandia, qué tiene que ver Brasil

Bro, what do you do for living and let’s you afford this life style?
I have a regular office job just like everybody else…. The ads you that run during the videos kick back money to google and then to me…. Thank you for helping me live a dream AJ.
If I was a Spaniard in the 1850s I would have to say Cuba right off the bat. Pizza is a toss up in foreign countries. It would't be my first choice in a new country and culture.
Dear friend , the food in Argentina it is of high quality , as for the music of the video , the cumbia it's not Argentina , is of Colombia. Argentina is Tango or rock.
The artist is Bolivian my friend
How did you learn spanish?
Whoa, Argentina low key crackin
pero si no es de europa, de donde deberiamos ser ? hay raiz española, con emigrantes de todo el mundo, donde la diversidad se hace notar en todo.
