For example popcorn is pochoclo (choclo is corn) in South America, and palomitas in Spain. Strawberries are frutillas or fresas. Pumpkin is zapallo or calabaza. I could go on and on but I don't wanna bore you with nonsensical gibberish
Ah, just like the different dialects in english then
Argentina is a great place for roadtrips if you enjoy those. To the north you have Iguaçu Falls which you can see from the Argentinian side (which I personally think is better, the Brazillian one gives more of a panoramic view from a distance, whilst Argentinian makes you feel like you're inside the heart of the waterfalls and you can appreciate the beauty of it much more).
To the south you have the entire region of Patagonia, where you can venture off to the end of the world (almost literally, since Ushuaia is the southernmost city in the world) and see the glaciers which are breathtaking.
To the west you have Chile which is well-worth visiting, especially if you are a lover of seafood
I know I'm slow in replying T_T
edit: forgot to mention that if you go to Chile you get to cross the Andes which are really special, I remember seeing some insane rock formations by the river near the pass, it looked like something out of a fairy tale. They called them the baths of the tribes.

New puppy is making Divine very exhausted. If I go by what people tell me, only another 2.5 years until shes out of puppy stage@@ D:
I know how you feel. Got a German Shepard pup about a month ago. Needs attention for days.
I plan on visiting the Patagonia and Ushuaia sometime in the future. It's not close though, Argentina is MASSIVE. And yea, I LOVE seafood
Also, Argentina has a massive coastline, I'm sure their seafood is vast as well! I'm not big on adventures though, so I don't see myself exploring the country for a while

My friends and I have been talking persistently about travelling as of late and it's driving me nuts in the sense that I HAVE to go explore somewhere new asap. Hopefully in February when I'm done with my exams
