Field notes

Patagonian Lake District base — Cerro Catedral skiing in winter, lake-and-trekking in summer. Argentina's DNV applies the same way as Buenos Aires; foreign-currency earners get the same peso-volatility tailwind. Centro Civico is the tourist nucleus; Melipal and Las Marías are the quieter long-stay neighborhoods. Coworking is thin and seasonal — expect to work from cabin or café. Real winter (June–August) is ski-resort cold.
