Welcome to Readers of Clarin…
The Buenos Aires Argentina Guide - As Seen In Clarin!
Today there is a story in the most popular (I believe) daily Argentine national newspaper, Clarin, about the many Argentine and expat bloggers in Buenos Aires (link, of course, in Spanish).
Thanks entirely to Dalton, this blog got listed in the guia de sitios section (down in the bottom right section of your screens on the Clarin story link). I have noticed a few extra direct type-in visitors from Argentina today, and I guess they found my blog from the Clarin story, so I thought I would say a quick…
Hello Clarin readers!

- My experiences of betting and losing at the Palermo Hipodromo
- An internet meme I started called My Perfect Day in Buenos Aires
- A review of Pizzeria Guerrin, that old Corrientes classic
- My visit to the Teatro Colon, just before it closed for refurbishment until 2008

Other Great Buenos Aires Blogs
By the way, if any Clarin readers are wondering, the lady called “Diva” that was interviewed at the start of the story has her blog here: Buenos Aires Through My Eyes - for some reason her website address was not mentioned in Clarin.
Also, I would recommend checking out the following blogs related to Buenos Aires, which deserve to be on any decent list of blogs about the city, but for some reason were not mentioned in the Clarin article (despite all being better than my blog!):
- Line of Sight - a Yanqui expat who writes a lot interesting posts about the history and architecture of Buenos Aires, and takes some amazing photos
- Saltshaker - the best website for reviews of restaurants in Buenos Aires… although he did get mentioned in La Nacion today, instead of Clarin (about his restaurant de puertas cerradas, Casa Saltshaker)
- Sexy Spanish Club - the sexy side of Buenos Aires
- The Argentina Travel Blog - not strictly about Buenos Aires alone, but it does have a lot of great posts about the city written by travellers visiting Argentina, rather than living here
Anyway, thanks for visiting Clarin readers! Sorry for getting a little over-excited… I have never had anything in a national newspaper before! ![]()

This is great, Alan! And we all know that you’ve gotta plug your own press whenever possible. I hope you get a lot of new visitors! Thanks so much for mentioning me on this page.
Besos,

Likewise, thanks for the link here. Looks like Clarín couldn’t make it around to all of us!
