With the help of the Knowmad team, I put together a round-up to help you set the stage for the perfect South America inspired day and evening full of fun activities for the whole family.
Start by learning about spring in Patagonia with the kids, then take a virtual museum tour before you pour yourself a glass of Malbec and turn-up the Latin American music, next, awaken your tastebuds with a delicious Empanada recipe, and lastly, call it a night with a Dudo or a good movie.
