After a Saturday night of partying in Buenos Aires until dawn with Argentinian friends I met back in New York, I spend my penultimate day visiting La Boca, one of its poorer neighborhoods but also the most vibrant (I was just recommended not to hang out there at night). Religion here - as you can guess from the pictures - is called football.
Tomorrow night I leave Bs. As. for Mendoza, returning at the door of the Andes to continue my journey North.
La Boca, home of colorful houses...
