A few warnings, 1/ check that the falls pathways are fully opened again. Some were damaged over the Christmas period due to the heavy rainfall and subsequent water flow. 2/ This time of year its extremely hot and humid. I`ve done it with a 3 and 6 year old and they both wanted to go home after...

ok thanks, will investigate further as i`ll have a couple of suitcases and 1 hand luggage. I`ll probably just have to pay the excess baggage fees that they show on their website.

camberiu as usual has managed to sabotage a thread and made it into something about Brazil or is this RioExPats forum now? ;)

New York, Vancouver, Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, Sydney,etc are good examples of cities built with British rule or investment. Buenos Aires couldve been in that list if it wasnt for a certain Peron to come along. Disliking the fact that Buenos Aires was being run like a British colony they...

Hi All Any ideas how many suitcases you can take on board per passenger for domestic aerolinas argentinas flights? Their website states a maximum of 15kg (rather stingy) but doesnt say how many bags? http://ww1.aerolineas.com.ar/arg/main.asp?idSitio=US&idPagina=52&idIdioma=en Thanks

This is fantasy football, not that egg chasing game that only North Americans call football :P

Its the way of life here. I`ve lived both in the centre of BA and out in the country and the attitude towards noise pollution is the same, ignore it. I`ve had neighbours in Recoleta that will have all their windows open and have music or loud talking(shouting) throughout the night at weekends...

I see attempted robberies here all the time, whenever I go into a store and check the price tag.

I found the only option in Argentina is , if you cant beat them , join them!

I`ve tried goat a few times over here because lamb is scarce but its not the same. Has a strange taste if you ask me.
