Mochileiros falam de Argentina
Já era plano antigo do nosso grupo, 4 amigos aventureiros do sul do Brasil, mais especificamente da Porto Alegre, fazer um mochilao pela Patagônia Argentina, Buenos Aires e, o mais esperado de todos, Foz do Iguaçú.
“Aproveitando o cambio favorável, decidimos botar o pé na estrada nesse verao de 2008 e o resultado foi uma viagem incrível. As geleiras de Perito Moreno, bem ao sul, sao incríveis, gigantes e mais lindas do que parecem nas fotos. Lindas paisagens patagônicas, e depois subimos e paramos um fim de semana na famosa Buenos Aires. Foi aí que conhecemos o Hostel Colonial, recomendaçao do Fernando, com uma localizaçao perfeita e gente muito fina! Até conhecemos uma gaúcha que trabalha lá, e cada vez estamos mais convencidos de que esse mundo é realmente pequeno! Pequeno mas com infinitos lugares encantadores para a vista e o coraçao humano, e ansiosos, seguimos nossa trip rumo às Cataratas!
1300 km de estrada, também se pode ir em aviao, mas como bons mochileiros, fomos de busao mesmo, que saia da estaçao Retiro, pertinho do Hostel Colonial. Gente, que visita inesquecivel! Para os amantes da natureza, é um verdadeiro deleite! Tem várias opçoes de passeios e trilhas com guias, de bote, de helicóptero, guias pelas populares feiras de eletronicos e um pouco de tudo no lado paraguaio, cassino, expediçoes pelos parques e do lado brasileiro, mais quedas d’agua. Todos falam e é a real: O lado argentino, é o mais bonito. Nao só pela natureza mas também pela cidade. Puerto Iguazú tem varios hostels, barzinhos e apesar de pequena, é uma cidade super agradável de ficar. Estavamos devendo esse relato pra vocês. Roteiro 100% garantido! Um grande abraço pro pessoal do Hostel Colonial e de Iguaçú!
Claudia, Aninha, Érica e Fernando,Poa city-Brasil!
