Buenos Aires, site of the “corralito”.

Congress, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Over the course of our six-month trip we’ve taken pictures of all kinds of places except one: cemeteries. The first time we visited one, we refused to do so and then, to be consistent, we didn’t waver. It’s not as if every time we visit a place we’ve got to see a cemetery. The thing is, though, when one visits a lot of cities and villages, up and down, east and west, without a map or directions, you end up running into one even if you don’t want to. And it makes sense, because if you do the numbers, there are much more of them than there are of us.

Tierra del Fuego, the end of the world.

Tierra de Fuego, Ushuaia, Argentina

Divers at the end of the world, or Tierra del Fuego, which is just about one in the same. We’re in Patagonia. There’s no other inhabited place in the world closer to Antarctica. As the continent gets closer to the South Pole, it splits into multiple islets, pieces of a giant puzzle that neither want to stick together nor separate. Tierra del Fuego is the biggest of all, separated in the north by the Magellan Strait and in the south by the Beagle Channel. Two passages which link the Atlantic Ocean with the Pacific. The boldest adventurers of yore travelled through them: Magellan fulfilled Columbus’ dream of getting to India via the West; Captain Cook, seeking fame, travelled around the world not once, but twice, if there was any doubt that he was the best; and the pirate Drake fled from the Spaniards after stealing their gold and sense of shame.

Buenos Aires, Argentina, European capital of Latin America.

Congress, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Río de la Plata, or River Plate to the soccer fans. Across the river is Uruguay. Over here, Argentina, or the “land of silver.” It was called this because from these lands and waters came a big chunk of the money that the Spanish Crown spent in its dream of becoming a world power, money they would gladly welcome now, the Argentineans remind us whenever they can.
