About Argentina
Argentina is the largest Spanish speaking country in the world and is often referred to as the most European country in Latin America. The European portions of Argentine society are due to a wave of immigration that followed the Spanish colonization of Argentina in the 16th century and lasted all the way up to the 1900’s that consisted of migrants originating from Spain, Italy, Germany, and France. The influence of these immigrants can be seen throughout the country in Argentina’s love of Italian pasta, its French architecture, and Argentinean Tango with its roots in Spanish guitar melodies. Argentina also has strong cultural ties to its cowboy, or guacho, history and holds up cattle ranching, large barbeques, and beef as national icons.
The Argentinean Peso is the official currency of the country so it’s important to exchange dollars for pesos upon arrival along with purchasing an electrical outlet adapter to fit Argentina’s European style outlets. Almost 50% of Argentineans claim to speak English; however, Spanish is still the official and most widely spoken language so don’t expect to always find an English speaker on the street. While the rate of violent crime in Argentina is lower than in most other Latin American countries, petty theft is still common and so are muggings and fraud so be careful and alert when it comes to protecting your valuables. Political protests can also occur quite often and as a foreigner it is better to just avoid them since they can quickly turn violent. In case you do run into any trouble, it’s smart to prepare for your visit beforehand by visiting both www.ustia.org to obtain travel insurance and the website for the US Embassy in Buenos Aires along with registering for their Smart Traveler Enrollment Program at step.state.gov. Stay safe and enjoy Argentina’s “crisol de razas,” or melting pot of cultures.
