Argentina
Argentina is a country in the southern half of South America. Community-based tourism in Argentina has created benefits for the local population, since it complements the agro-livestock activities of the inhabitants. Tourists can feel Andean culture and enjoy beautiful natural landscapes. They can immerse into rural life, try typical meals and participate in daily activities of their host families such as the preparation of regional cuisine, agricultural or hosreback riding.
The climate in Argentina is very varied. Buenos Aires and the Pampas have a temperate climate which means it' can be pretty cold in winter, but hot and humid in summer. In the deserts of Cuyo it can be extremely hot and dry in summer and temperatures can reach to a staggering 50 degrees Celsius (122° Fahrenheit). During winter it is moderately cold and dry.
The Andes and Patagonia are cool in summer and very cold in winter, varying according to altitude. Extreme temperature shifts within a single day are common here. Take note that seasons in Argentina are reversed from those in the Northern Hemisphere. This means summer takes place from December til February.
