Do a GOOGLE search, get the Right Ascention and Declination figures for the appropriate dates, AND SEE FOR YOURSELF.
And what location south from the 60° parallel in the Southern Hemisphere would you recommend me to go to ?

"...And what location south from the 60° parallel in the Southern Hemisphere would you recommend me to go to?..."

Did you even bother to read the article you posted? Here are the relevant passages:

"At its closest on September 29..."
"...Soon thereafter, experienced backyard astronomers north of the equator will have a chance to find Toutatis..."
"...By early October, it will suddenly be re-emerging into northern skies as its apparent trajectory will bring it back into very favorable view..."


Looks like you don't have to go to the Southern Hemisphere.
