    The calendar of upcoming strikes at the airports

    That’s how I interpret it too. I m hoping they ll move flights around where possible. That’s what they did last time with the Air France one for example. It left after midnight

    Zelensky Is Working on Joint Weapons Production with Argentina

    Of course Fukuyama and friends were sure of themselves. Even though the very existence of free market back up tools like the IMF and WB were proving all along that capitalism wasn’t sustainable by itself as claimed. Then 2008 happened. That’s any ideology. Sure of itself until it isn’t. No...

    Zelensky Is Working on Joint Weapons Production with Argentina

    No one in this thread is saying this is a simple conflict. And going all flood mode on explaining Putin’s behaviour isn’t making Russia look any better for invading a sovereign country. There’s also a lot to be said about statements which are straight out of Russia’s most worn out propaganda...

    What are the cultural aspects that make you stay in Argentina?

    The way of the campo. Escaping the city and within a short time being able to take your horse for a day ride with friends through the quaint pueblos of the provincia. Old train stations and pulperías, crossing endless fields, dirt roads and waterways in between, mate and asados. The yearly...

    Most expensive property for sale

    Quite the contrary, it is precisely because selling real estate is much more than bricks and mortar (or selling ‘pared’ like they say in Argentina) that I m speechless as to why most local sellers don’t make any effort to market their places. The historical prestige of a dwelling like you...

    Most expensive property for sale

    ‘Renovator’s delight complete with local fauna’! Even that can be marketed jaaa But I guess selling a home comes down to business. And that means investment. That’s just not yet the culture here. Real estate or otherwise. It’s definitely not for lack of potential buyers either. There are plenty...

    Most expensive property for sale

    Thought exactly the same: dated. But a lot of Argentinians like that style and that’s the target market I guess. What did make me smile though was the usual total lack of home stageing. Not even lack of home staging actually, more home selling underming. Like leaving a random office chair in the...

    Argentina battles dengue surge and repellent shortage

    Agreed. i d say this is the worst wave of mosquitoes in the campo since October. The campo mosquitoes are something else, vicious little shits and bigger in size too. You walk outside and are literally covered in them. Had dengue type I years ago and don’t wish it on anyone

    Argentina asks to join NATO as a global partner

    It is an interesting point that often comes up in conversations with Argentinians. I just don’t think neutrality would mean much anymore in our globalised world and in the era of transnational terrorism. Argentina being Argentina and behind times would actually be what serves it better. First...

    Argentina asks to join NATO as a global partner

    It’s one thing to apply, quite another to be accepted. Even just as global partner.

    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    Wasn’t this deal organised during the Alberto/cristina era?

    Skipping second leg of a flight

    Entering the US, you clear customs and collect bags at first port of entry. Got to recheck bags for domestic sector regardless

    How are retirees coping nowadays?

    It will raise. But with a house you have control on when and what maintenance you want to do. So you can budget doing maintenance and projects when the brecha is advantageous.
