Final comments
Argentina is the most diverse country for travelling: Buenos Aires as the metropolitan city, salt lakes, huge waterfalls, desert, mountains, lakes, glaciars, Ushuaia as the most austral city in the world, wildlife: whales, penguins, sealions, horses etc. I can´t but tell anybody that they have to go there one day and I promise everybody will love it! Brazil, Chile, Peru and Bolivia are close, each country has its special note!

Personal comments
I was good at understanding spanish before I studied in Argentina, but after one year it improved a lot. All the classes and exams were in spanish, but it did´nt cause many problems. I was very satisfied with my performance. And the local slang you get after the first couple of weeks!
