How can Argentina surprise a Russian graphic designer?

Getting back to my first post, I’d like to tell you about one of the most amazing countries I've ever visited. Four years ago, my family and I got on a huge ship in Hamburg and headed towards South America. It was three weeks of an incredible voyage across the Atlantic Ocean! We were sailing to Argentina. 

Tell me, what do you know about this country besides that it’s the homeland of tango and football player Leo Messi? Well, I knew as much as you do :) 

Now that I have lived here for over 4 years, I can say that Argentina is a country-kaleidoscope, in other words, the mosaic of my favorite places. Each of you can get it just by traveling here once. Situated on another side of the world, far away from the majority of countries, Argentina took many things from them. While walking around Buenos Aires, you can find yourself in the middle of a loud Paris boulevard or a quiet Milan alley, and a view from your apartment can show you one of Bangkok streets. A small town in the central province can remind you an alpine village and some other places look a lot like Moscow suburbs. In the north of Argentina you can find the tropical jungle with exotic waterfalls, and in the south you can conquer the glacier and meet the penguins. 

But, perhaps, the most amazing thing here is people. While talking to the Argentines, you deal with the descendants of the Italians, Spanish, Germans, Ukrainians, and even Russians, who came here many decades ago and saved the memory of their roots. I like how they communicate, their temperament and at the same time their tranquility, their musicality and the way they treat their country, with love. 

In addition, here I would like to share some photos (a special thanks to my dear friend Alex!) from the streets of Buenos Aires, or rather, the photos of its inhabitants, casual, but so touching.
