Ecuador and Uruguay are smaller countries with unexceptional opportunities. Ecuador is relatively undeveloped in terms of sophistication and punting action in Quito (Ecuador) is slightly surreptitious (locals will warn you about safety in different streets and areas).

Buenos Aires (Argentina) is a sophisticated city with a wide range of options, though greatly reduced from its former glory.
