• Day 2 - Palermo Soho graffiti tour

    September 11, 2023 in Argentina ⋅ 🌬 18 °C

    Yep, more walking tours. This time, it was a graffiti tour around our hostel area called Palermo Soho, which was achingly cool. Essentially, it's legal to graffiti in Argentina if you ask the wall owner so there are some beautiful works of art on almost all the walls which take days and weeks to create. Lots of football focused murals, which you might expect for a nation who are absolutely fanatical about it, and then some random ones commissioned by parking garage owners, restaurants etc.

    Thinking our house's walls could do with a spruce up when we get home, petition for a taco dedication artwork starting soon.... watch this space.

    And yes, the eagle-eyed amongst you will notice Adam's been wearing the same trousers since we left the UK, which he slept on the floor in, and I have the cheek to be wearing a scarf in 22°C when I'm Scottish #backpackinglife
