    Craigslist, Garage sales, etc

    Even in the US you have to be very careful when trying to sell things to strangers whether it is through Craigslist, the newspaper, garage sale, etc. I gotta believe here it is especially risky. Any tips on how to make this process safer? What can we do to sell our stuff prior to leaving and how...

    Doctors...health care in BA

    My wife and I have a rule that we never accept anything but the best care for our family especially our baby. If we don't like the hospital, we find another one, if we don't like the doctor, we don't go back. In the beginning I was so afraid to offend someone, now I don't care. It is their job...

    Exchanging money on overstayed visa

    We don't use places that ask for ID when exchanging money. I don't think you are but if by chance you are up here in Zona Norte let me know and I'll point you to where where we go. For some reason my wife knows who asks for id and who doesn't and does not trust anyone that does. We were...

    Argentinian Accent is it the best

    One of the funniest things I have read on this forum! I admit when I first came here I didn't know what language they were speaking. For me, I love how they speak spanish in parts of Columbia and probably my favorite is Venezuela. When they speak it is almost like a song they are singing. To me...

    Returning to US - dogs

    Hi Carly, In my opinion, the best resource here in BsAs you already know about. And that is this forum and the many kind people here. There is an email list I'm a member of that is also extremely helpful. Thanks to everyone for the help with airlines to get back home. Since we are flying into...

    Returning to US - dogs

    Hi mini, Yes, I absolutely agree. DELTA is awesome, and our preference. That's who I used when I came down with the dogs from Atlanta in September and they were on top of it. Only downside is that DELTA has a blackout for flying with animals from May 15 to Sept 15. My wife flew to BsAs last...

    Returning to US - dogs

    Yes, of course we can, and we will. In the US we spent weeks planning the move with the dogs. We did not know about this forum at that time. Someone here who has already been through this may be able to help steer us in the right direction and away from the wrong airlines/companies and save us a...

    Returning to US - dogs

    We are starting to think about going back to the US. We brought 2 dogs with us last year and we know what was involved from the US to Argentina, but now it’s time to figure out the details from here back. We have whippets - one dog weighs 25 pounds and the other weighs 35 pounds. We’d like to...

    How to talk to Argentines

    Of course Argentina is a third world country, no matter what the definition is. That's not an expression I would use here in public, but it has been said to me by Argentinians dozens of times. And they are not referring to the wikipedia definition either.
