I spent ard 17 hrs taking a bus from Bariloche to Mendoza, I think that's probably the most comfortable bus ride I have ever had, I slept almost the whole time except the time for meals, and a game play with the busboy. Felt like floating in the cloud and eyes closed whenever they felt like to
Arriving Mendoza in the morning, I felt in love with it right away, because it's so so so so HOT. After 1 week in the cold south, I felt like back to heaven. It's a very big city but I find it much cleaner than Buenos Aires, people tend to have a quite life there. It says 70% of Argentinean wine is from Mendoza because the dry semi-desert weather's perfect for grape growth.
As a typical tourist, I spent few hours visiting the wineries, I was in a small group of 10 people, people're from everywhere, UK, Mexico, Russia & Germany. Before we even entered the winery, they're started drinking beer and wine in the car LOL. I personally have no idea why people want to drink that much.
I found much more pleasure checking out the local life and market. Trying out the traditional empanada & Mate, I was already very happy.
When we left our hostel in the way to downtown, I saw two guys in the neighborhood sitting in the street sharing a cup of mate tea, being curious I looked at them. They asked me to come over and offered me their mate, I tried to clean a bit of the straw and give it a sip--->this is a totally wrong gesture. I later found out when the Argentinean offers to share you with a cup of Mate, you can't clean a straw, it's a sign of friendship and trust by sharing the same straw-->well I'm just a tourist, so excuse me lol.
I think I love Argentinean people, they're simply amazing people.
