Buenos Aires is an incredible city that abounds with places to see and things to do no matter the time of day. It is a huge city. The closest thing we have in the States to compare it to is New York City, but Buenos Aires seems to be even more alive. It’s true that it is noisy, polluted, and massively populated, but it can also be very calm, beautiful, and you’re never alone. It would definitely go into our list of the top places in the world to visit. As we’ve moved on from Buenos Aires, we wanted to share some of our favorite things to do (in no particular order).
1. Casa de Lili (aka living with a local) 
Some of our best memories were living with our hostess. While not in the trendy or touristy neighborboods, we were able to enjoy and peek into the life of real porteño life. From unforgettable, simple meals, late night conversations and afternoon mate with friends and family, our stay would not have been the same without our time with Lili.
2. MALBA
A great introduction to the history and minds of great Latin American artists. This museum was inspiring and captivating. With a collection that is large enough to stretch your mind, but not so large that you feel rushed or overwhelmed.
3. La Boca
While existing on the extremes of hopelessly touristy and extremely dangerous, La Boca was a surprisingly enjoyable visit. While we can only recommend that visitors stay within the tourist areas or travel with local advice, it was fun to see the brightly painted buildings, the home of the Boca Juniors futbol club, and two wonderful museums (PROA and Belles Artes).
