    safety in BA

    We live in Belgrano (right on the edge of Belgrano R), and have two children (5 and 7). I have never felt that my kids were not safe (except when they did foolish things, like stopping to pick something up in the middle of a busy street!), and we've traveled around the city and country a good...

    Selling $USD when we arrive

    For us, finding people through BAExpats and then exchanging in our lobby (with the security guy in the vicinity) has felt both safe and easy. It is especially good to work with people who have a decent amount of history posting to the website...

    Another Moving Sale!

    Things have sold quickly - thanks to all who have bought stuff and lightened our luggage! What's left, you ask? Both Roku's (see earlier description) Tennis balls (and these are tennis balls made in the U.S. - as well as being cheaper than new balls bought here, we also have it on good...

    Hi Sarii! I tried to send a PM - but you don't have it enabled! It's a very good quality organizer, just heavier than we want to bring back to the US. You can email me at [email protected].

    Get your pots out for the lads!

    GSDirtboy's story is great. I, too, was troubled by the tone of tomdesigns post. Poor people aren't less intelligent, but often have less social, educational and cultural capital with which to negotiate the world. And for many of us, even as fortunate as we are, worries about a place to live...
