    Coming to BA - need anything?

    Hey Ricky V, You sent me a PM requesting something, did not give me the details and I cannot PM you back because you have set up your settings to now accept PMs. This is the only way I can attempt to contact you. Bruce

    ATM Limits and Best Banks. LOST

    The Mule Pool

    Hey Ben, I have used Mule Pool as a Mule for a number of Mule Pool people and LOVE the company. It worked perfectly for me.

    Change in expat attitudes?

    So many people post about crime in BA. However, there is significant crime in ALL big cities-especially late at night. Try walking around many areas of SF late at night--not to mention larger cities like LA, etc!! I feel safer walking around BA at night than in most large cities in the US...

    Residency Attorney recommendations

    Hi Steve, Thanks for the link as that should give me the latest info. I can speak Spanish fairly well but with complex conversations would want someone fluent. I have been reading up on the requirements from other websites so am familiar with some of what is required. Did a cursory look in...

    Hi All, Will be moving to BA permanently early next year and am looking for an attorney that is experienced in gaining residency. While I can speak Spanish I am no where near fluent so I would need someone who is bilingual. Any recommendations based on personal experience would be greatly...
