definetly check out a jazz show at notorious. you can walk in, but reservations are safer. if you don't have a reservation, go early. also good for music is classica e moderna. they are more eclectic though so you may want to stop by for a program of what's going on different night. have fun.

We flew Quantas from Auckland to Santiago, it was fine, although the jet lag was a nightmare. It was part of our round the world ticket. Perhaps you could fly to Santiago and get an extra flight to BA.

We only went to Buenos Aires in Argentina, but as far as a female travelling on her own I think you will be ok. Just make sure you listen to local information and try and make yourself blend in as much as possible, knowing the language will be very useful too. An example of this is a group of people…
