The 'porteño' is proud, direct and generally kind to visitors who respect his city.

People with a lot of identity and popular culture.Willingness to give directions in the labyrinths of the hills.
A certain distrust towards mass tourism that leaves no local benefits.The pace of the port can seem rough at times.
