    Robbed And In Need!

It's been nice to be surrounded by family and friends, but knowing that there are people who I have never met that are genuinely concerned about me is giving me the confidence to restart...

    Robbed And In Need!

    Yes, I took off the blindfold before running home. I did contact the US Embassy, and they directed me to the Public Defense for Tourists. From there I'm not sure what happened, but when I returned to the police station, they no longer seemed very interested in helping me. I thought it was a no...

    Thank you for taking time to write such a nice message. I am an American. It was a traumatic experience and a great lesson learned.

    Robbed And In Need!

    I was waiting for a taxi on Juan B. Justo early Thursday morning, around 6am, to catch my flight to Mendoza. A woman and a man approached me very quickly and started grabbing my things and beating me. There were cars driving by and people on the other side of the street, but no one stopped to...

    Robbed And In Need!

    I'm so sorry to hear what had happened to you... I was robbed waiting for a taxi a couple of days ago. Not only was I robbed, they also held me hostage in an abandoned warehouse for 2 hours... Terrified and very lost on what I should do next...

    Excited/scared About Moving To Ba...!

    Sarita, isn't it nerve-wrecking to get everything situated when you are somewhere else in the world and have NO idea what the area/apartment really looks like? I'm going through the same thing... Some friends of mine recommended San Telmo for a more local feel, but I just heard from my employer...

    Looking For A Baby Sitter

    Hi Alicia! You mentioned 3-5 hrs a day, twice a week... what time and which days? I worked as a nanny for a 2 yr old and 4 yr old for 2 years, and I majored in Early Childhood Education so I have plenty of experience with toddlers. Let me know if you are interested! [email protected]

    Excited/scared About Moving To Ba...!

    Hi Lamarque, Thanks for responding to my post! So 7000ARS is enough to survive off of in BA? I'm not big on partying, but would like to occasionally go out for nice dinners maybe once or twice a week. Other than that would just be rent, but I'm still in the process of finding an apartment...

    Excited/scared About Moving To Ba...!

    I'm glad I only booked my apartment for a month, this will allow me to have some time to figure out where and how much I can afford to live. Thanks everyone for helping me out! One more question... I have been in contact with a lady who is starting a new Kindergarten, everything sounds like...

    Excited/scared About Moving To Ba...!

    Thanks EVERYONE for your wonderful comments! I'm definitely excited about moving, just want to sort out all the kinks before I can fully enjoy the anticipation!!! I did reserve the apartment for only 1 month, in case it was not a good idea. Thank goodness I did that! I would like to live in...
