For most Argentine teens and twenty-something's, life revolves around partying. When I say partying, I mean going to discos and just hanging till the sun rises. A typical night for someone your age would be like this: getting together with your friends at one of their houses, staying there talking and/or drinking till 2 am or later, and then going to some disco and hanging there till 6 am. When they get out of the disco, some people return home while others choose to wander the streets till 9 am... So basically that's what they do. You've been here for some time now so you must know this already. I like to hang like that every now and then... But some do it EVERY weekend, both on Friday and Saturday night!!!
Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying all Argentines do the same things. What I'm trying to say is maybe they give too much importance to clubbing. And teen life could be a little more varied, if you know what I mean...
I've been to the US and Americans have a very different lifestyle. For one, nightlife doesn't start so late. At least from my experience, Americans prefer to go out earlier. Besides, they seem to put more emphasis on other activities, like the outdoors, sporting events, etc, which I think is cool. Am I right?
Wow, this is way off topic
If you're looking to meet people you can go to discos, pubs and the like. Those places are good to have fun, pull girls and drink. But as I said, it all depends on your preferences and concept of "fun". If what you want is to actually get to know people, I wouldn't recommend discos. Everyone goes there with their OWN friends and may not be interested in making new ones. If you want a list of cool places, just ask.
