A Little More On Living In San Carlos de Bariloche, Argentina

Alberto (196.40.43.70) -

What is the square area of Paradise? In so many of the world�s beauty spots there is an annoying city or freeway that degrades the view. There are a few still pristine places, but the crush of people is so heavy, you are always surrounded. There is noise. There is car exhaust. There is...Patagonia to escape to. San Carlos de Bariloche is perched above the lovely Nahuel Huapi Lake with brazos(arms) stretching off as far as the imagination can wander. El Bolson a couple of hours south doesn�t have the downtown lake but just turn to the west and the massive wall of rock rises thousands of feet above you. Mountains completely encircle the town but the �wall� draws your eye and you feel like an ant. Most people just gasp as the clouds pull back and you see the true height of the peaks. A few minutes drive south and across the Rio Negro Province border, and into Chubut Province, there is Lago Puelo spread before an array of snowy peaks. From Lago Puelo north to Bariloche, then on to Villa la Angostura and finally to San Martin de Los Andes: my Paradise. When the crowds come, the exits are everywhere. There is the Lake or you can travel deeper in as pavement turns to gravel, then to dirt, and buildings begin to disappear among the trees.
