TREVELIN DAY TRIP: A Foodie Day in a Welsh Town in Patagonia, Argentina
Today, we’re taking you on another day trip here in Patagonia, this time to visit the town of Trevelin. If you’ve been following along, then you probably know we stumbled upon a series of Welsh towns in Argentina and we couldn’t resist visiting them. Dragons and afternoon tea may have been part of the draw, but we were also very curious to learn what life was like for the first Welsh settlers who arrived in these lands. So today, we’re introducing you to yet another Welsh town. This is Trevelin which translates to ‘mill town’.
First things first, we visited a Welsh tea house, because hello, we love food! Thankfully this place does serve afternoon tea in the middle of the morning, so that worked out well.
We then walked along the Percy River, walked around the town where the streets are lined with rose bushes, and we also visited the Andean Mill Museum, which showcases objects that were part of daily life for the Welsh settlers of Patagonia. You’ll see furniture, home decorations, musical instruments, clothes, random household items, and even farming equipment.
We then grabbed a late lunch at Los Troncos, which specializes in Argentine BBQ, and because that apparently wasn't enough food, we ended up in Trevelin's artisanal market where they had homemade cakes! We couldn't resist getting a slice of the walnut cake with dulce de leche. It was amazing! The day really turned into a bit of a foodie tour.
That was our day trip to Trevelin from Esquel. Super easy and worth the journey. We hope you guys enjoyed watching along and we’ll see you soon with more videos from Patagonia!

TREVELIN DAY TRIP: A Foodie Day in a Welsh Town in Patagonia, Argentina:
Hey guys! We are Samuel and Audrey, a travel vlogging couple from Canada. In this travel channel we share our travel and food vlogs while touring the world.
We had the privilege of traveling around Argentina for nearly 3 months from January- April 2019 on a trip covering a large section of the country.
We kicked things off with several days in Buenos Aires where we were joined by Audrey's parents eating and sightseeing around some of our favourite neighbourhoods in the city. We then flew from Buenos Aires to Cordoba where we spent a couple of weeks in the Sierras of Cordoba.
While on the Atlantic side of Chubut we visited Puerto Madryn, Peninsula Valdes, Trelew, Gaiman and Dolavon. To summarize our time in this area, we had incredibly close encounters with wildlife including penguins, sea lions and guanacos while also experiencing Welsh culture in Argentina.
Our time in Patagonia continued as we headed from east to west trading more barren landscapes for thick forests, impressive mountains and magnificent lakes. We spent significant time in both Esquel and El Bolson with day trips to visit Trevelin, Parque Nacional Los Alerces, Cholila and Lago Puelo. Highlights included sailing, hiking, riding vintage trains and partaking in the national asado festival.
We finished visiting Patagonia with time spent in Villa La Angostura, San Martin De Los Andes and Bariloche where we enjoyed more stunning scenery and hiking. On our way back to Buenos Aires, we took the Tren Patagonia to Las Grutas before meeting up with Audrey's dad again.
To finish off our trip in Argentina, we spent more time in the capital and later Mendoza where we got to experience wine tourism to its fullest extent. Overall, we had an amazing time travelling around Argentina having only scratched the surface of this vast and diverse country.
Overall our Argentina travel series explores cities, small towns that are off-the-beaten-path, and scenic attractions with a strong emphasis on Argentina cuisine and local culture.

MODERN ARGENTINE CUISINE + Visiting the PALEONTOLOGICAL MUSEUM in TRELEW, Argentina ????
Come join us in Trelew, Argentina for modern Argentine cuisine along with a visit to the Paleontological Museum. Our first stop of the day was a visit to Museo Regional Pueblo de Luis (The Regional Museum of Trelew) located in a former railway station to learn more about Welsh cultural and history as it relates to settlement in Patagonia. For lunch we ate at Sugar, one of the best restaurants in Trelew, trying modern contemporary Argentine cuisine. We started off with a bread basket and house red wine. For our mains we had beef (Argentine steak) with ground lamb and peanuts with a potato in a mushroom sauce and a spicy carrot coated in paprika. For dessert we ordered walnut cake with dulce del leche and cream filling along with cheesecake featuring a copious amount of berries. When then visited the Trelew Museum of Paleontology Egidio Feruglio (Museo Paleontológico Egidio Feruglio) with fascinating dinosaur fossil remains. Stay tuned as we'll have more from Trelew and nearby Gaiman and Dolovan soon.

From Cordoba, we then travelled a considerable distance on an overnight bus to Mar Del Plata just in time for a special food festival called Feria Masticar featuring the best of Argentine food and wine. We spent several days enjoying beaches and seafood before heading south to Patagonia to visit the province of Chubut.

Visitando el Pueblo Galés de TREVELIN + Tomando Té Galés | Chubut, Argentina
Hoy los llevamos a visitar el pueblo de Trevelin en la provincia de Chubut. Si han estado siguiendo nuestro viaje por Patagonia, ya sabrán que visitamos varias comunidades con origines galeses, y este pueblo fue uno de ellos. Trevelin en galés significa ‘pueblo del molino’ y fue aquí donde se construyó el primer molino harinero de Los Andes.
Nuestra primera parada en Trevelin, por supuesto, fue una casa de té galés. Muchas casas de té solo abren en las tardes, pero vinimos a Nain Maggie porque uno puede tomar té galés en la mañana. Aquí probamos 5 deliciosas tortas: torta galesa, pie de crema, pie de manzana, torta de chocolate y cafe, y torta de dulce de leche y coco.
Durante nuestra visita a Trevelin, también paseamos por la costanera a lo largo del Río Percy, fuimos al Museo Regional donde se exhiben objetos que constituyeron la vida cotidiana de los inmigrantes galeses, visitamos el monumento al barco Mimosa que llego con los galeses, almorzamos en Los Troncos donde se especializan en carne a la parrilla, y también visitamos la feria de artesanos.
Fue una corta visita, pero esperamos que disfruten este paseo por Trevelin! La próxima vez tenemos que visitar durante la época de tulipanes y también llegar al Molino Nant Fach.

Turismo en Trelew: Cultura Galesa + Museo Paleontológico (Dinosaurios!) + Rico Almuerzo en Argentina
En este video visitamos la ciudad de Trelew en la provincia de Chubut. Trelew es un pueblo con orígenes galeses; la traducción de Trelew es 'Pueblo de Luis' (Tre = pueblo y Lew = Luis) y lleva el nombre de uno de los fundadores de la colonia galesa en Patagonia, Lewis Jones. Hoy en día, esta es la ciudad más grande y poblada del valle inferior del Río Chubut, y nosotros la queríamos conocer!
Comenzamos el día visitando el Museo Regional Pueblo de Luis donde aprendímos un poco más sobre los colonos galeses y cómo y por qué llegaron a este lugar.
Luego fuimos a almorzar a Sugar, un restaurante que venía muy recomendado y nos encantó! Esperen a ver los platos que pedimos.
Esa misma tarde visitamos el Museo Paleontológico Egidio Feruglio, que es un centro de exposición e investigación científica, y un museo de historia natural. Pasamos una linda tarde viendo todo tipo de dinosaurios!
Esperamos que hayan disfrutado nuestro primer día en Trelew! Nos vemos pronto con más videos.

SUMMARY
=======
Argentina (Spanish: [aɾxenˈtina]), officially named the Argentine Republic (Spanish: República Argentina), is a country located mostly in the southern half of South America. Sharing the bulk of the Southern Cone with Chile to the west, the country is also bordered by Bolivia and Paraguay to the north, Brazil to the northeast, Uruguay and the South Atlantic Ocean to the east, and the Drake Passage to the south. With a mainland area of 2,780,400 km2 (1,073,500 sq mi), Argentina is the eighth-largest country in the world, the fourth largest in the Americas, and the largest Spanish-speaking nation. The sovereign state is subdivided into twenty-three provinces (Spanish: provincias, singular provincia) and one autonomous city (ciudad autónoma), Buenos Aires, which is the federal capital of the nation (Spanish: Capital Federal) as decided by Congress. The provinces and the capital have their own constitutions, but exist under a federal system. Argentina claims sovereignty over part of Antarctica, the Falkland Islands (Spanish: Islas Malvinas), and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.
The earliest recorded human presence in modern-day Argentina dates back to the Paleolithic period. The country has its roots in Spanish colonization of the region during the 16th century. Argentina rose as the successor state of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata, a Spanish overseas viceroyalty founded in 1776. The declaration and fight for independence (1810–1818) was followed by an extended civil war that lasted until 1861, culminating in the country's reorganization as a federation of provinces with Buenos Aires as its capital city. The country thereafter enjoyed relative peace and stability, with several waves of European immigration radically reshaping its cultural and demographic outlook. The almost-unparalleled increase in prosperity led to Argentina becoming the seventh wealthiest nation in the world by the early 20th century.Following the Great Depression in the 1930s, Argentina descended into political instability and economic decline that pushed it back into underdevelopment, though it remained among the fifteen richest countries for several decades. Following the death of President Juan Perón in 1974, his wife Isabel Martínez de Perón ascended to the presidency. She was overthrown in 1976 by a U.S.-backed coup which installed a right-wing military dictatorship. The military government persecuted and murdered numerous political critics, activists, and leftists in the Dirty War, a period of state terrorism that lasted until the election of Raúl Alfonsín as President in 1983. Several of the junta's leaders were later convicted of their crimes and sentenced to imprisonment.
Argentina retains its historic status ...

The country thereafter enjoyed relative peace and stability, with massive waves of European immigration radically reshaping its cultural and demographic outlook. The almost-unparalleled increase in prosperity led to Argentina becoming the seventh wealthiest developed nation in the world by the early 20th century.After 1930, Argentina descended into political instability and periodic economic crises that pushed it back into underdevelopment, though it nevertheless remained among the fifteen richest countries until the mid-20th century. Following the death of President Juan Perón in 1974, his wife Isabel Martínez de Perón ascended to the presidency. She was overthrown in 1976 by a U.S.-backed coup which installed a right-wing military dictatorship under Jorge Rafael Videla known as the National Reorganization Process. The military government persecuted and murdered numerous political critics, activists, and leftists in the Dirty War, a period of state terrorism that lasted until the election of Raúl Alfonsín as President in 1983. Several of the junta's leaders were later convicted of their crimes and sentenced to imprisonment. Argentina retains its historic status as a middle power in international affairs, and is a prominent regional power in the Southern Cone and Latin America. Argentina has the second largest economy in South America, the third-largest in Latin America and is a member of the G-15 and G-20 major economies. It is also a founding member of the United Nations, World Bank, World Trade Organization, Mercosur, Union of South American Nations, Community of Latin American and Caribbean States and the Organization of Ibero-American States. It is the country with the second highest Human Development Index in Latin America with a rating of very high. Because of its stability, market size and growing high-tech sector, Argentina is classified as a high-income economy in the 2019 fiscal year.

SUMMARY
=======
Argentina (Spanish: [aɾxenˈtina]), officially named the Argentine Republic (Spanish: República Argentina), is a country located mostly in the southern half of South America. Sharing the bulk of the Southern Cone with Chile to the west, the country is also bordered by Bolivia and Paraguay to the north, Brazil to the northeast, Uruguay and the South Atlantic Ocean to the east, and the Drake Passage to the south. With a mainland area of 2,780,400 km2 (1,073,500 sq mi), Argentina is the eighth-largest country in the world, the fourth largest in the Americas, and the largest Spanish-speaking nation. The sovereign state is subdivided into twenty-three provinces (Spanish: provincias, singular provincia) and one autonomous city (ciudad autónoma), Buenos Aires, which is the federal capital of the nation (Spanish: Capital Federal) as decided by Congress. The provinces and the capital have their own constitutions, but exist under a federal system. Argentina claims sovereignty over part of Antarctica, the Falkland Islands (Spanish: Islas Malvinas), and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.
The earliest recorded human presence in modern-day Argentina dates back to the Paleolithic period. The country has its roots in Spanish colonization of the region during the 16th century. Argentina rose as the successor state of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata, a Spanish overseas viceroyalty founded in 1776. The declaration and fight for independence (1810–1818) was followed by an extended civil war that lasted until 1861, culminating in the country's reorganization as a federation of provinces with Buenos Aires as its capital city. The country thereafter enjoyed relative peace and stability, with several waves of European immigration radically reshaping its cultural and demographic outlook. The almost-unparalleled increase in prosperity led to Argentina becoming the seventh wealthiest nation in the world by the early 20th century.Following the Great Depression in the 1930s, Argentina descended into political instability and economic decline that pushed it back into underdevelopment, though it remained among the fifteen richest countries for several decades. Following the death of President Juan Perón in 1974, his wife Isabel Martínez de Perón ascended to the presidency. She was overthrown in 1976 by a U.S.-backed coup which installed a right-wing military dictatorship. The military government persecuted and murdered numerous political critics, activists, and leftists in the Dirty War, a period of state terrorism that lasted until the election of Raúl Alfonsín as President in 1983. Several of the junta's leaders were later convicted of their crimes and sentenced to imprisonment.

The earliest recorded human presence in the area of modern-day Argentina dates back to the Paleolithic period. The country has its roots in Spanish colonization of the region during the 16th century. Argentina rose as the successor state of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata, a Spanish overseas viceroyalty founded in 1776. The declaration and fight for independence (1810–1818) was followed by an extended civil war that lasted until 1861, culminating in the country's reorganization as a federation of provinces with Buenos Aires as its capital city. The country thereafter enjoyed relative peace and stability, with massive waves of European immigration radically reshaping its cultural and demographic outlook. The almost-unparalleled increase in prosperity led to Argentina becoming the seventh wealthiest developed nation in the world by the early 20th century.After 1930, Argentina descended into political instability and periodic economic crises that pushed it back into underdevelopment, though it nevertheless remained among the fifteen richest countries until the mid-20th century. Following the death of President Juan Perón in 1974, his wife Isabel Martínez de Perón ascended to the presidency. She was overthrown in 1976 by a U.S.-backed coup which installed a right-wing military dictatorship under Jorge Rafael Videla known as the National Reorganization Process. The military government persecuted and murdered numerous political critics, activists, and leftists in the Dirty War, a period of state terrorism that lasted until the election of Raúl Alfonsín as President in 1983. Several of the junta's leaders were later convicted of their crimes and sentenced to imprisonment. Argentina retains its historic status as a middle power in international affairs, and is a prominent regional power in the Southern Cone and Latin America. Argentina has the second largest economy in South America, the third-largest in Latin America and is a member of the G-15 and G-20 major economies. It is also a founding member of the United Nations, World Bank, World Trade Organization, Mercosur, Union of South American Nations, Community of Latin American and Caribbean States and the Organization of Ibero-American States. It is the country with the second highest Human Development Index in Latin America with a rating of very high. Because of its stability, market size and growing high-tech sector, Argentina is classified as a high-income economy in the 2019 fiscal year.
