I'm Argentinian. And I'm proud of it. Here are the top 10 destinations (in no particular order):
1. Buenos Aires (cosmopolitan city, history, libraries, theaters, palaces, bars, football soccer, sports, cafés, tango, restaurants, discos,
Messi, Tigre deltas, churches, San Telmo, La Boca, french arquitecture, and it's the most gay-friendly city in South/Central America).
2. The Pampas (gauchos, horses, asados, payadas -traditional gaucho music).
3. Iguazú Waterfalls (Shared with Brazil. )
4. Northwest (Inca villages, traditions and vestiges)
5. Lake District (inside the Andes. Lakes, pines, green. Our Switzerland)
6. Valdés Peninsula (you can see pinguins, whales, etc.)
7. Perito Moreno Glacier (near to El Calafate there's a tremendous glacier)
8. End of the World (in fact, it's a city called Ushuaia)
9. Sierras Cordobesas (hills, green, tranquility, lakes, etc.)
10. Ciudad de Córboda (like Buenos Aires, but not as big)

Of course there's a lot more to visit.

I am American, from the state of Minnesota. Minnesota probably fits in more of the Canadian stereotype than
America ( cold snowy wasteland, polite and nice residents, etc.)

And of course we have the Scandinavian influence. We have troll decorations in our house, we make lefse at
Christmas, and we have our wonderful Minnesotan accents. Reading THE MILLENNIUM TRILOGY is like looking
through a Minnesota phonebook.

All in all a very cool state!
