A Passionate Love Affair with the Land
Cobb's love affair with Argentina began in the early 1990s when she stumbled upon a postcard of the Perito Moreno Glacier.

What began as a single visit quickly blossomed into a lifelong obsession with the country.
Over the years, Cobb has returned to Argentina time and again, immersing herself in its culture and exploring its hidden corners. She has danced the tango in Buenos Aires, trekked through the towering Andes, and sailed through the pristine waters of Patagonia. With each experience, her admiration for Argentina has grown deeper.
In "Love Letters to Argentina," Cobb shares her profound love for the country through vivid descriptions of its landscapes, people, and traditions. She captures the essence of Argentina's vibrant cities, the vastness of its pampas, and the rugged beauty of its mountains.

Cobb's memoir is not merely a travelogue; it is a collection of unforgettable adventures and encounters. She recounts her experiences with gauchos on the pampas, tango dancers in Buenos Aires, and indigenous communities in the remote regions of Patagonia. Each encounter is a testament to the richness and diversity of Argentine culture.
One particularly memorable adventure involves Cobb's journey to the Perito Moreno Glacier. Determined to witness the awe-inspiring sight of the glacier calving, she embarks on a treacherous trek through the rugged wilderness.

She takes us to the bustling streets of Buenos Aires, where tango dancers twirl in the milongas and street artists paint vibrant murals. She introduces us to renowned Argentine writers, such as Jorge Luis Borges and Julio Cortázar, and explores the country's contributions to cinema, music, and theater.
Cobb also delves into Argentina's complex history, discussing the country's struggle for independence, the turbulent years of military dictatorship, and the challenges of the post-dictatorship era. Her writing provides a nuanced and insightful perspective on Argentine society and its people.

Through her evocative writing, Cobb invites readers to embark on their own journey of discovery. She encourages us to embrace the unknown, to step outside our comfort zones, and to be open to the transformative power of travel.
