Argentina
Evita may sing “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina,” but it is you who will be weeping tears of delight when you lay your eyes upon the South American splendour that is Argentina.
As the eighth largest country in the world, and the second largest in South America, Argentina is home to over 40 million people. It has both the natural and cultural aspects that people have come to expect from a South American country, but it offers something more. Much of the country has a very European flare and visitors from Europe and North America should have no problem fitting in and feeling at home.
