Christmas in Argentina

Allow me to introduce myself.  I'm Bartolomé, Argentinian marketing representative of Claus International. 

Well, my title doesn't do my actual job justice.  I'm more of an elf-of-all-trades.  I do marketing, PR, and update the company website.  I also step in to help support when they get overwhelmed by the volume of correspondence to the Big Guy.  And, in the off-season, I help in the stables.  Rudolf requires a lot of, shall we say, attention.  Champagne baths, massages with walnut oil (for a shiny coat), hot toddies twice a day for his voice...  He is such a diva.

But you don't care about all that.  You're wondering if Christmas is going to come to Argentina.  Let me assure you, Papá Noel will make it all the way down south. 

Maybe it'd be best if I referred you to some of our propaganda literature for further clarification.

Frequently Asked Questions


Q:  Does Mr. Claus actually make it all the way, like, to Buenos Aires even?  It's pretty far from the North Pole.

A:  Yes, it's a long trip—Buenos Aires is far south—but we at Claus International are committed to excellence. 

Q:  Isn't it hot in Buenos Aires?  That's so un-Christmas-like.

A:  We realize that 80F weather makes for a different Christmas, but the essence is still there.

Q:  Only won't Santa be hot?  He wears all those layers and, let's face it, he's got some insulation on him.

A:  Please don't be concerned for Mr. Claus.  His sleigh is fully equipped with ventilation.

Q:  But what about heat stroke?

A:  We assure you, Mr. Claus will be fine.  Really.

Q:  Does he speak Castellano?  Because they don't speak normal Spanish in Argentina.

A:   No, but Donner is quite the linguist.

So if you're in Argentina, don't worry.  If you've been nice, you're good to go.  If you've been naughty...  Well, there are certain exemptions south of the equator.  Email us—we'll see if we can work something out.

  • I have a question about that diva Rudolph: Does he use energy efficient bulbs in that nose, or is he blithely contributing to global warming?

  • Ms. Jen:

    At Claus International, we're very concerned with our footprint on this earth. We're currently researching more efficient ways of lighting Rudolph's nose. Let me assure you that it's lit only when needed, so minimize any adverse effects on the environment.

    Thank you for your concern. Merry Christmas.

    (BTW, the Big Guy has you on his "list", if you know what I mean. I'd tread lightly this next year. It's not far before you're upgraded to "coal" status. Just saying.)

  • I appreciate the effort being made. May I suggest that he change his nose from red to green in order to spread the message of conservation throughout the world?

    Oh and I'd like to respectfully suggest that perhaps the Big Guy might want to consider a more environmentally-friendly alternative to coal.
