Consider Carlos' place is not only an apartment but a compelling 24 hour view, looking out from the 11th floor to one of Buenos Aire's best parks, and tree-lined streets full of cafes and restaurants. Wake up to sunshine climbing over the River Plate and look down at the early morning horse trainers, then walk to the special gardens or the museums or grab a taxi to the many plazas in Palermo, where stores and restaurants are clustered and where at night families pour in the parks and don't stop at the first ice cream/gelato store because there are many and their offerings are worth the endless search for the most unforgettable flavor. And of course there's Carlos a kind, gentlemanly host, a world traveler himself, eager to help and available for help. Buenos Aires is a citadel of many worlds, but don't miss Palermo.
