Salta + Cafayate, Argentina






















Salta was our first stop in Argentina. Having met some fun English guys on the bus we headed to what we thought was going to be the party hostel although it was actually really nice and really quiet! Salta is a pretty city with some gaudy buildings - which is why I took this church in b+w!
There is amazing scenery on the road from Salta to Cafayate and around Cafayate there was a lovely walk (more like hike and climb!) through canyons to get to lovely waterfalls and natural swimming pools. Cafayate is also home to Argentina's second most important wine growing. Unfortunately Gideon and Jessica don't really like wine so I wasn't in the best company for drinking it! Had a lovely time just chilling out in Cafayate's main square and just generally being back in a more developped country.
