Field notes
Argentina's second city, with a younger and more student-driven culture than Buenos Aires. Nueva Córdoba and Güemes are the nomad-dense neighborhoods. Argentina's DNV (6+6 months) applies. The peso volatility story is the same as BA — foreign-currency earners have an unusually large advantage that may not last forever. Sierras de Córdoba weekend access is the lifestyle multiplier.
