“Beef – it’s what’s for dinner.” Unless you are a vegetarian. And believe it or not, in a country known for its beef, where the asado is a tradition, it IS possible to survive as a vegetarian.

La Morada Hostel sits in the mountains. That’s the best way to describe it. While crashing at Hostel 1004 for a few nights in Bariloche I began to notice the signs posted everywhere, and the conversations among the travelers about this mountain getaway. Having heard this much without even asking, I became intrigued and I knew there had to be something special about this place.

One day, seven lakes, five towns, the Andes Mountains, and the wild outdoors. An amazing trip, and there is no better way to maximize your sight seeing experience around the Lake District. Here are the facts on a road trip from Bariloche that will weave you through the Patagonia Seven Lakes crossing.
One of my favorite hostel experiences took place in Bariloche where the views are as great as the company. Hostel 1004 sits on the tenth floor of the highest building in Bariloche. It is a unique hostel location and experience; and quite possibly the cheapest price you will ever pay for a lake side, panoramic view of the Andes Mountains.
Everybody say Cheese! …Because when you discover the wonders of the cheese fondue at La Marmite in Bariloche, a picture is a must. I highly recommend La Marmite for its Swiss specialties, and also just for the fun of a fondue experience.
