The weather has finally cooled off in Buenos Aires and people started to fill up the city coming back from vacation. With only 15 days left in this city, I’m really going to miss this place but I’m ready to keep on moving. We’ve had been here for over 3 months. It’s been good.
On April 14th, I’ll be traveling west from Buenos Aires going to Rosario, Cordoba, Mendoza, then finally Santiago, Chile by April 22nd. I’ve never been to Chile so I’m excited to check it out. We plan to stay in Santiago till May 2nd and possibly fly back to the US afterwards.
On Art of Backpacking, we have our new apps page you can check out on the menu. We expected that our Eat The World app would be released a month ago but Apple has decided to waste our time and make development more difficult. We hope to have our app completed soon. In the meantime, if you have any recommendations for what to put in our app page, do let us know in the comments.
We have TWO new members on our team! Everyone please welcome Christine Amorose and Suki D to Art of Backpacking. Check out the team page.
Art of Travel Blogging has leveled up. Since the announcement of the price going up, we’ve got at least 5 new members each day. The forums and wiki pages are really turning out great.

Downsides To Teaching University English In China on Toms China Blog: You mean there are downsides outside of being paid well, having a bunch of time off, and being a celebrity? Yeap.
