Which city is “Paris of the Southern Hemisphere”?

Which city is “Paris of the Southern Hemisphere,” the birth place of sultry, sensual Tango and Latin America’s Polo capital? The center of non-stop action, beautiful people, and European architecture is none other than Buenos Aires. A city that seduces in so many ways, Buenos Aires remains a hotspot for those looking to live abroad.

The trend for those looking to move outside their motherland is growing. People are looking to expand their horizons given the ease of travel, communication via the Internet, and the global economy. Even though the world is becoming smaller, there are still a plethora of choices when choosing where to live overseas. Buenos Aires has slowly made its way up the ranks as one of the best options. The city offers a multitude of enjoyable activities, an exciting nightlife, a high standard of living, and excellent housing options in a variety of neighborhoods. Most importantly, the city offers a rich and varied culture and is home to a population who are open to foreigners. Finally, Buenos Aires is a still a great value for those coming with Dollars, Euros, and Pounds.

Argentina’s largest metropolis, at over 13 million Porteños (the nickname given to inhabitants of Buenos Aires), is magnetic and is known to capture the hearts of visitors. The greater population of Buenos Aires is a mixture of Italian, German, and Spaniard decent—which makes it a true European culture within Latin America. Deby Novitz, a tango dancer from the United States, initially traveled to Buenos Aires to enjoy its tango dance halls. But after a series of trips she knew that she had found her new home, “I first came to Buenos Aires in 2000 to dance tango. I came back in the spring of 2001, again to dance. I decided to come in December 2001 for the holidays, once again to dance. It was probably one of the worst times in history for the country. I was really moved by the spirit of the people. That began my love affair with Buenos Aires. Although my first reason for coming to Buenos Aires was to dance tango, I moved here because I love Buenos Aires and the people. I can easily live here without tango.”
