    • Death to the Supermercado: Top 5 Food Markets in Buenos Aires

      When most people think of South America they think outdoor markets with fresh local food stuffs, children chasing chickens about and a general hustle to sell customers things they don’t really need.  Unfortunately in Buenos Aires this has almost all but disappeared as massive supermarket chains have invaded nearly every barrio bringing you everything from canned cow to imported laundry detergent.  Fortunately for you, the Oasis team, with some help from Argentine super food blog Planeta Joy, bring you the best of the food markets that have yet to succumb to florescent lights, toilet paper in bulk and music classified as “easy listening.”  Check out Buenos Aires’ top 5 food markets after the jump!

Parque Patricios: Buenos Aires IT Powerhouse?

There is a growing trend among leading international cities to have a dedicated IT district and Buenos Aires is the latest to follow this pattern with its redevelopment of the Parque Patricios neighbourhood. It is a movement that started even before 2000 with sites such as the Caohejing Hi-Tech Park in Shanghai, China, and the International Tech Park Bangalore in India; two areas, which, despite being the ‘guinea pigs’ for IT districts, have turned out to be two of the most successful.

Travel: The Best Beaches of Colombia

I adore living in the big city of Buenos Aires, but my next home away from home is going to be the beach. Where is this magical life going to take place? Colombia. With hundreds of miles of Caribbean coastline, barrier reefs and temperatures that remain pleasant throughout the year, Colombia is becoming a blossoming tropical destination. Someday I would like to make that destination my home, but for now I present my top Colombian dream beaches (in no particular order):

Jazz Profile Buenos Aires: Guillermo Klein

Better known for its beef than its jazz beats, Argentina has still managed to produce one of the more talented jazz musicians of our times in the form of the innovative Guillermo Klein. In the 1990s Klein attended the Berklee School of Music before heading to New York and working at a local jazz club, but his newest work pays melodic tribute to his native Argentine roots.  The Argentine pianist and jazz composer recently wowed audiences in New York City with his latest project, a set of adapted songs based on the works of another Argentine great, composer and folklore artist Cuchi Leguizamón. The project was suggested in 2008 by the artistic director of the Buenos Aires Jazz Festival, and Klein wasted no time in beginning a thorough investigation and interpretation of the revered Cuchi.

Mañana Effect (Эффект «завтра»)

Недавно я поняла почему в Аргентине жить легко и приятно. Я долго привыкала что совершенно посторонние люди тут целуются в щеки и
обнимаются, дружески похлопывают друг друга по плечу, никогда не едят и не пьют на ходу, а выходные обязательно собираются всей семьей и жарят мясо под теплым аргентинским солнышком. Теперь я понимаю что в моем «внеаргентинском» будущем мне так же долго придется привыкать к стрессам, перегрузкам, внеурочным и дедлайнам.

Oasis Destino: Tilcara Parte 2

Tilcara es pequeño pero tiene muchas cosas para hacer. Aclaro que todo pasa alrededor de la plaza principal, como en varias ciudades de provincia. Los domingos juegan un bingo multitudinario que es muy divertido ver por como se juntan todos para hacer algo en común, algo que no es fácil ver en Buenos Aires. Allí, hay una feria donde venden productos regionales. Si quieren comprar sweaters, bufandas, medias o cualquier otra cosa, háganlo aquí. Vale la pena!

Oasis Destino: Tilcara

Esos lugares que uno quisiera volver…

Si tengo que elegir un lugar para volver sería Tilcara. Esta ciudad esta ubicada en la provincia de Jujuy en el centro de la Quebrada de Humauaca. Se encuentra a 1609 KM de Buenos Aires y se puede llegar en micro o avión hasta Salta y desde allí a Tilcara en micro. Sea cual sea el medio de transporte, el paisaje es increíble y vale la pena recorrer tantos kilómetros.

Shop Till You Drop In BA? Why Bother?

Palermo Soho has been flooded with clothing stores in the past several years- from independent designers, large Argentine names, and some international brands as well. It can be exhausting to attack all these stores at once, even for the most die-hard clothing fiend, so I usually just head to my go-to store where I know I will always find something great.
Lupe, located at El Salvador 4657, is a light, airy space, showcasing the latest collection of Argentine designer Lupe Villar’s women’s clothing. The staff is friendly, and the clothing is fresh, original, and comfortable. I pick up basics here all the time (sweaters, striped tees, leather bags, jackets), and I also give other pieces as gifts to friends back home in the US as the style is unique compared to clothing you find outside Argentina.
