Hosteria Del Lago, Patagonia

...Tierra del Fuego is the southern province in Argentina. It’s that little boot that we can see clearly in the map. Tierra del Fuego means “The Land of Fire” and it is believed to be named like that because of their amazing sunsets where the land and snow seems to catch fire and turn red. Its capital, Ushuaia, is the southern city in the world and it is not famous because of that but because of all its beauty. Moreover, although its sounds like a desert place there are many things to do in there! How to get there? Ushuaia is 3.171 km from Buenos Aires so a coach is not a very good option if you are only interested in visiting ushuaia. But if you are planning to visit the Patagonia go for it, a coach will let you know what’s all about! Although the best thing is to hire a car, the roads there are empty, and when I say empty is empty... Read review

Disadvantages: It's a bit far but most certainly worth it.

...The Torres del Paine National Park lies to the extreme south of Chile, in the Chilean Patagonia. To be precise, in the XII Región of Magellan and Chilean Antarctica (Chile is divided into 12 regions). The province is known as "Ultima Esperanza" (Last Hope). Hope is not a word I would use. Reality is more like it. Hopeful Reality. Or perhaps Realistic Hope. I am afraid Patagonia has stolen my senses, and senses I did not have a lot. So do forgive me if I seem to lose my mind. I left it somewhere there, wandering the Patagonian plains, lakes, forests and mountains. It is an area roughly 242,242 hectares large and was officially declared a National Park in 1975, and from this date to today, has been administrated by the National Forestry Service of Chile (Conaf). On the 28th of April 1978, the United Nations recognised it as a World... Read review

...Since there already plenty of positive comments on Rome here, I thought it is better to give you some useful addresses. I start with my favourite, which is also a well know meeting spot for locals. It is a place where dei sell ice-creams: "Gelateria Giolitti" in Via degli Uffici del Vicario 40. If you are on business card, you can go to "Checchino dal 1887" in Testaccio, in Via di Monte Testaccio. testaccio is one of the traditional parts of the town and this restaurant is one of the best, not only in Rome, but in the whole country. A full meal will cost you around £40. Otherwise I recommend "Hosteria Romanesca" in Campo de Fiori. A full meal including wine should cost you around £10. Otherwise, during the day you can just enter a shop where they sell food and ask them to prepare a sandwich for you with some local ham. Very cheap... Read review
