Chascomus & Buenos Aires

From coastal vibes in Chascomus and saying goodbye in Buenos Aires

November 19, 15:46

We searched on the map to find another coastal beach (vibe) town with better weather. The wind has been blowing away our chance at relaxing on the beach. So we decided to look for something else and we found it! It’s called Chascomus. It’s very small and located next to a big lake and directly on the way from Mar del Plata to Buenos Aires. So, perfect! 

We just arrived in our apartment and soon we’re gonna leave to chill in the park and watch the sunset. Cause here it is sunny!

The grass and trees are trying to kill me. I’m not even kidding. These allergies are driving me crazy. I took not one but two allergy pills cause they didn’t seem to be working. And now I feel tired with a headache while still fucking sneezing. Other than being attacked by natures green, it’s a very chill day. We laid down next to the lake in the sun and right now we just sat down for lunch. We ordered prawns in garlic oil and grilled fish with risotto. What more do you want. I mean, not being deprived of breathing normally by grass would be nice, but if you can’t have that this is a pretty good alternative.

This band has two new fangirls. What a concert! And such a surprise cause we decided very last minute we were gonna go. We had seen this place last time when we were in Buenos Aires and they do different concerts almost every night. So we thought we would just walk by and see if they had any tonight. And they did! Taburete, that’s what they’re called, a band from Spain and apparently suuuper famous here in Argentina. What a vibe.

Now we are sitting down somewhere to have our dinner. A little late but the concert was definitely worth it. We also drove only 1,5 hours from Chascomus and slept in today, so we feel rested and still have energy.

We just came back to the airbnb to chill for a short hour and then we’re going out again to watch the last sunset on the Boulevard and have our last dinner here in Argentina. It’s crazy that this month together has already come to an end. Time is such a weird thing. One week feels like three weeks cause you see and do so much and other days feel like just one moment, that’s how fast it flies by. Since we went out last night and didn’t came back until 5:30 in the morning, we were a little tired today. And it makes this last day feel longer, which is actually kinda nice.

This was somehow still a little stressful. And I don’t mean this flight cause this is the most beautiful view I have ever seen from a plane. Right above the Andes during golden hour and afterwards a perfect view of the sunset. I’ll show a video. Look at this!

What was stressful was me being 6 hours early on the airport and still not being able to relax with Helena whilst waiting for the flights. What happened was that since I was so early, I had to wait to check in. While Helena already passed security and passport control, to make sure she didn’t miss her flight. So we ended up both waiting at the airport but on different locations. I guess an almost 2 hour difference in departure times, is not helpful. At the end I had to rush through security and pray for a fast passport control, to be able to still say goodbye. We made it by ten minutes. Ten minutes in which we had to buy some stuff at a shop, since her card didn’t work she had to wait to use mine, go to the toilet and say our goodbyes. She was the last one to board the plane but we made it.
