    For Those Waiting For Their Dnis

    I was in the same scenario a year ago... In the end they never even attempted to deliver it to my house, and I ended up going 4 times to the Jujuy place in Once (aka HELL). I requested my DNI in March, finally received the DNI at Jujuy on the 4th attempt in December (so *9* months later), with...

    Most Comfortable Flight To Europe?

    I've recently (a week ago) flown Madrid-Buenos Aires on IBERIA (booked it as it was the cheapest). I was dreading it because of the horror stories, but I have to say that it wasn't bad at all. Yes, the stewardesses are kinda grumpy compared to the ones of KLM (which I normally fly with), but it...

    Long-Term Predictions For The Peso?

    Was looking for the Macro-economic, not super interested in the Blue, as as you said, it will always be extremely volatile. Thanks for your answer, I appreciate your explanation :)

    Long-Term Predictions For The Peso?

    Agreed. It seems to me that many active members here follow Argentine politics closely, and even global politics/the relation between the US and Argentina. I'm just wondering what those members think. I know that it will be random guesses, but just wondering how the random guesses of the...

    Long-Term Predictions For The Peso?

    Hey guys, Does anyone have any long-term predictions of where the value of the Peso is headed? While I didn't miss the whole Griesa situation, I'm not very up-to-date on all the political developments. I've tried scanning other threads, but most of it is political discussions rather than talk...

    Has Anyone Used/heard Anything About This Temp Rental Place?

    That website, and the guy Hernan, i've tried to contact him a few times. but he doesn't even read the emails it seems. My girlfriend (from here) tried calling, but that didn't work either, it doesn't seem like they're running a proper business.. I've rented for a while now from...

    Anyone Know Of Good Websites For American Tv Shows/movies?

    Malwarebytes is very good. It's not your typical anti-virus program, as it's an anti-malware program, but it's a lot better than whatever most people install (avast, kaspersky etc). As for the kindle, as long as you just read and download e-books from the amazon store you'll be fine, no...

    Stray Dogs In Tandil-Adoption Tips/help With Transport?

    Sheawj, if you end up doing this, send me a PM. If you're going to take a big remis there and back (if it takes lets say driver + 5 + dog) and it's 1000 pesos each way, that's 400 pesos each for a return trip? It'll depend on my work, but if we can make a proper day trip out of it, or do like...

    Italpark?

    I was recently told by a local that at Libertador & Callao there's a large abandoned theme park called Italpark. Supposedly, it has been partly reopened, but there is still a closed off, abandoned part. Does anyone have any more information about it? Does this still exist, and if so, would it...

    Super Bowl

    I am 100% sure Casa bar will show it, they've showed all games all season, and good food. Be there early (I will). It's on Rodriguez Pena (one street over from Callao) between Santa Fe and Arenales.

    Where Is My Dni?

    I applied for my DNI in mid march, and received it yesterday (mid december). They told me 3 months as well. Good luck ;) tip: if your precaria will expire, don't risk expecting the DNI to show up. Go to migraciones and get a "certificado de radicacion" or something; it's an official paper that...

    Your Best/worst Customer Service Anecdote

    So walking in there isn't a good idea, makes sense, same goes for Delivery. One fateful night I decided to try this restaurant via BADelivery. Ordered my food, was charged *25* pesos as delivery fee. Well, I could live with that I guess. An hour later the bell rings, I go downstairs, there's a...
