TKGO,
I found your site by looking for arctic/antarctic photos. Could I use one of your photos on my site (which, if you go there right now, you’ll see is in a temporary state). My wish is to use “antarctica-dec-23-and-24-810″ as a background for one of my pages. I’d want to lighten it a bit, and I would credit you/your site. Either way I’ll visit here again, I love travel-daydreaming!
Best,
Leah

Hi Ana,
Thank you for your comment. Croatia is definitely on our list of places to visit, so hopefully one day we can meet in person! (My latest reminder of desire to visit Croatia was this clip from the series Pan Am.)
Best,
Karina

Comment on Milongas in Buenos Aires by Karina

Hello, Cherie! Thank you for your comment and for sharing your wealth of knowledge about tango in Buenos Aires. Many of the milongas are formal as you mentioned, though for the article I ended up selecting a smattering to also show how varied it is, to give a full(er) picture. The impression many people have is that tango only exists as a performance, specifically as a dinner-show, and even those who probe the scene a bit end up at more touristy locales, like Confiteria Ideal or Catedral, rather than the venues where the “real” tango is happening. I hope others who are looking for tango in Buenos Aires and stumble upon this post take the time to explore the traditional milongas you also mentioned.

Nice photos!

Because I have lived and breathed the tango in Buenos Aires since 1997, I get a little annoyed when popular articles of the foreign press highlight only the alternative milongas of the young, the tourist circuit, and tango nuevo.

It’s only good journalism to point out that the majority of the tango salons here are traditional, observe the codigos, and dance in the close embrace of the milonguero style to traditional tango music recorded in the 30s, 40s, and 50s. They are not “practicas,” but formal dances.

A thorough piece on tango in BsAs would include such salons as Gricel, Nuevo Chique, Region Leonesa, El Arranque, Lo de Celia, La Nacional, La Milonguita, and many, many more, where people of all ages but especially older milongueros go to dance, not to see and be seen. Thank goodness you included El Beso.
