Justine and Dylan’s Travel Blog

Just thought I´d mention another highlight of our stay in Ushuaia: our B&B. As it turned out quite appropriately, named Tango B&B.

When booking it a while ago, as with most bookings, it was simply a matter of budget and bookability over the internet, cross-referenced with a few reviews from other travellers. Tango B&B looked like a great option based on these things so I booked it, figuring the Tango part was just a hobby of the owners or a funky name.

Turns out the owners take it a step further than that: the second night we (and the other guests) were invited to their “Tango night”. This consisted of him playing a whole bunch of Tango´s on his piano accordeon as part of a “history of Tango”, followed by some simple Tango lessons for beginners, all over a few glasses of nice red wine of course. Very cool. He did an awesome job on the piano accordeon (turns out he´d been playing for over 50 years, or since he was 5 or so, followed by a professional career as a player and composer) and the dance lessons were good fun too (although more laughs than serious dancing, especially after Justine had a couple of glasses of wine )

If ever in Ushuaia (hey, you never know), I can highly recommend it!
