So, sick of the weather in Chile, I decided it was time to hop over the Andes into Argentina. I ended up in a place called Barriloche, where I was very excited to find my first bit of blue sky for 5 days. I also found an amazing hostel on the 10th floor of a run down apartment block with lifts that stop a foot below the level of the floor they are aiming for. Didn't seem too promising at first, but inside it was brilliant, mainly because of the view over the huge lake on which Barriloche sits to the snowy mountains beyond. The other good things about Barriloche are the steaks, which are massive and delicious. The bad things about Barriloche are the cold and the wind, which are intense. Still, at least it is not raining!
