Nov 4, 2014 | Contributor: Parm ParmarAfter checking out of the Alvear Palace Hotel in Argentina, I made my way over to the Park Hyatt Palacio Duhau on Avenida Alvear. On the way, I heard loud drums and people shouting, for a moment I thought I was in the middle of a major uprising. After all, this is Buenos Aires and protests are quite common. As I got closer to where the drums and shouting were coming from, I discovered it was a small workers’ protest, much to my relief. ... Read More |
