I just thought that it would be fun to take a trip back in time to the first part of 2006 and to see what the New York Magazine was saying about Buenos Aires.

A Moveable Fiesta
Buenos Aires has become an expat haven like Paris in the twenties–except with girls in bikinis.

Dominic LoTempio leans back in his deck chair and surveys the grounds of the second home he rented for the year: a sleek, modernist two-bedroom in a gated retreat 30 minutes north of Buenos Aires. Ten feet from his toes, a stiff putting-green-style lawn continues uninterrupted to the border of a heated, infinity-edge pool and then eases down to a man-made lake with a dock for canoeing. And half a mile down the street is the field where he takes off and lands his paraglider. “It’s like living in the Hamptons,” he says. Except the whole thing costs just $1,400 a month.
