    International Child Custody

    You probably know this already, but if you want to take your child out of the country without the father being present, you have to have a letter of authorisation prepared by an escribano showing his consent. Sorry I can't be of more help, just keeping this bumped up. I wish you the best of luck.

    Can anyone bring over a braille machine from US?

    If anyone is able to help, but concerned about carrying something for a third party, I can show you the many fb posts about the robbery and also where the machine is being purchased from. Thanks!

    Can anyone bring over a braille machine from US?

    You're right to be cautious, El chabon. Of course I would give proof of the story, it's all over facebook, and the machine is being sold on ebay and hasn't been bought yet.

    How is this area in bsas?

    That brings back memories, embassy suites was the first place I stayed when I got here 6 years ago. Elevator was so slow coming we would have to walk down 5 flights of stairs, woman on reception was always a b-----tch, bed was so saggy I could hardly stand up straight. But for the price...

    How is this area in bsas?

    It's not so bad, I live about 3 blocks from that hostel on San Juan, the area is improving a lot and it's on the ok side of the autopista. The other side towards constitucion station is def dodgy. If the price is right, I'd say go for it.

    Can anyone bring over a braille machine from US?

    Just to say I'm still looking for someone, I think the earliest the machine could be delivered to a US address would be 16-20th August. Thanks again!

    Can anyone bring over a braille machine from US?

    Someone I know had their son's braille machine stolen and the new ones here cost a fortune. It would be possible for them to buy one on ebay and have it sent to a US address, so I'm wondering if anyone is currently there and could bring it back with them? They do weigh 3-4 kilos. If you are in...

    Totally Paranoid Question: Creative Security Solutions?

    We had an armed robbery last year. Now we have a video camera in the inner doorway, I want to put another one outside and a sensor light. We always chain our door. We also use a medieval-looking wooden barricade. It's impossible to enter the front door when that's in place. The burglar alarm...

    Crime hot-spots in the capital

    A friend of mine was victim of an armed robbery by two men a couple of weeks ago. They had already entered the apartment block and were waiting for him in the stairwell. When he reached his door, one of them held a gun to his head. Once inside they tied him up and ransacked the place over a...

    Store closings?

    I buy online from both and have noticed that Falabella has only about 10% of their usual stock. I'll be very sad if they close. A chinese supermarket employee told me that imports from China had been blocked for about 8 months but now were slowly trickling through...
