Thank you, however, that was my initial battle plan, and it turns out it is quite expensive (like the cost of new university text). It's cheaper to have it printed by an online service and then shipped to Argentina! My question/concern was about if there might be a cheaper/better way of going...

Buen Dia BAExpats, I'm in need of a little advice. I have a PDF, with some color pages and about 120 pages long, that I wished to see printed and bound. For some reason, the only places I can find charge 4 pesos a page, translating to a cost of ~$100 USD to print this little PDF. With a cost...

Hi GalV86. While it seems you are earnest in your desire to seek a job, you might want to consider redefining your request for employment opportunities to something a bit more specific, which is, unfortunately, the contrary to what is your non-specific search. We can tell that your english...

Hi Natalie, I am currently researching how GPS systems/devices work for cars here, and was hoping you could answer a few questions that I had. 1) Are there fees associated with receiving new content (updated maps, business directories etc.)? 2) Do these devices have voice directions as an...

Hello all. Looks like this thread hasn't been touched for a while, and I was interested to know if, besides Zara (who's reputation seems to be contested), there exists any other new recommendations for mens clothing? I am heading to a wedding in a few weeks back in the States, and could really...

I also opened a Charles Schwab account, online from Buenos Aires, and everything seemed to be going great (I had a friend visiting me bring me all of my documents and debit card). However, today, the German company that I am working for tried to deposit into the account and was unable to do so...

Not that I want to even get into a political discussion, but I can just say that it is always so amazing to learn of someones political ideologies and through which resources they use to inform themselves AFTER you have developed a conception of the person. It is even more interesting, however...

Oh, but there are quite a few English accents, and there are those that have the ability to use quite a few. Enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dABo_DCIdpM

¡Buen día! I am offering private tutoring lessons in sciences and mathematics of any level (including University graduate level) in English. I am USA-born, Ph.D. (doctorado) in nuclear engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, and also hold a B.S. (Carrera de Grado) in mechanical...

Thanks for the reply, one last question, is there a specific pre-pago movistar SIM I should buy, or will any type work for both calls and data? I am interested in using the $9 pesos/day txt for data plan. Also, I purchased a movistar SIM quite some time ago on the train, and it doesn't seem to...

Gulah, I also have an unlocked iPhone 3Gs and am looking to purchase a movistar pay as you go 3G SIM. Is this also what you are using with the data plan you describe above? It seems I will be here for at least 4 more months, to have a data enabled iPhone 3Gs, is this the best way to go? Just...

Bump..... Anybody?

Hello everyone, thank you so much for the insightful posts. I had a few question regarding the criminal background check. 1) Before 'moving' to BsAs on a tourist Visa 8 months ago, I lived for California (Berkeley and Oakland) for 7.5 years. Does Argentina accept local police reports for the...

Sorry, but just want to ask one more question, can you pay with a Visa CC? Also, did any of you mention to them that you overstayed or just let them look without saying anything? Thank you again for all the help.

Which makes me want to ask, should you even mention if you have overstayed your visa? I feel like yes, but maybe I shouldn't feel that way?
