Anyone lived in both Arequipa, Perú and Cordoba, Argentina?

Depends on what you like to do on your day off ?

Cordoba has a really good city vibe and its chill and cheep but there isn’t a ton to do aside from chill or go to the dam a few hours away.

Arequipa has i think more to offer on days off. The food scene is as good as Cordoba if not slightly better? You have a lot of mountain climbing and hikes and some cool random day tours.

I would say both are neck and neck but if you are trying to chill and have a nice city life do Cordoba

If you are trying to take a slightly less chill city life and have fun adventurous stuff to do on your weekends do Arequipa. Fair warning the wifi is shit in AQP though but its not hard to find a hard wired connection here
