Where shall we sleep?

San Pedro was not quite what we expected.  We knew it was a desert oasis town, but we also knew it was a major tourist centre, so the dusty mud brick homes that make up the entire town were a bit of a shock coming from very European Argentina.  We were a little concerned on the way about finding a room for the time we would be here.  Arriving at 6pm the day before Easter long weekend in a major tourist centre, that is also a very small town seemed to be a bad combination.  After wandering around San Pedro for an hour or more it seemed to be a complete disaster.  So we asked the hostel we had just found where else we could look, he called a friend and we were on our way to a room with a bed.  Woohoo!!  Our host is Nadia and we spent the walk to her house in very enjoyable conversation, her teaching us Spanish and us teaching her English.  She wants to set up her house as a hostel and as such currently only has one room available but I’m sure she plans more in the future.
