I have just arrived in Salta “the beautiful”, and this city deserves its slogan. I really enjoy Buenos Aires, but it’s true that after nearly three weeks of continuous noise and frenzy, it’s a pleasure to find a little bit of calm here. This city has wonderful squares and colourful colonial buildings, and I find history much more visible.
Here, there are no tall buildings to hide the sun, the historical Cabildo has not been chopped off by large avenues on both sides like in Buenos Aires, you can wear short sleaves again, you feel back in Summer – except when the sun is gone!
Tomorrow I’m continuing my drilling into the authenticity of South America travelling towards the North for a few days.
