Hi Dalila,

No problem – you have a great blog too that is slightly different to the rest in that it is trilingual, so I am always happy to link to good posts of yours. Thanks also for the link!

Hello Cesar,

Again, thanks for the nice comments…this blog roundup is something I will try and do every week so look out for links to your blog and others each time!

I do kind of agree, but at the same time, guide books can be out of date or occasionally paid to give good reviews (this does happen), and forums can be either full of posts by people that work at hotels/restaurants etc posting propaganda, or have ‘regulars’ that talk a load of irrelevant crap and bite the head off new people asking ’stupid’ questions…

…so I like to try and help people that ask questions here if I can, but, it is a lot of work, so I am considering hiding the questions form a little better so that only the most desperate people find it!

There re forums where people can post questions. I get a lot of questions too even though I don`t offer to answer them. I guess is normal. and every once in a while someone ask something interesting, then I answer. But everything related to hotels, the weather, shopping, etc etc, they can search on a guide book, or a forum. You are doing a wonderful job with your on line guide, you already won the tittle of “nice guy”. You don`t need to do extra good deeds.

Hello ladies!

Thanks for the nice words Karine and Laura. And keep up the great work on your blogs.

Laura – did you get my email?

Diva: Problem is, reading is so much more interesting than writing, AND I seem to spend the other half of my time responding to people that email me with questions about Buenos Aires. I don’t mind doing that, but the time it takes (stopping me from posting more) is making me consider removing the contact form from my ‘about’ page. Still haven’t decided.

This week, I will be posting more. Guaranteed.

Alan, Nice roundup of all the fabulous blogs that exist here now. When I first started blogging last year, there were only a few blogs out there, now there are so many good ones that it’s difficult to keep up so thanks for doing that for us.

If you read all of that, you deserve a medal. It needs something to break up all that writing!

Sorry guys…
