also a new yorker. i wouldn't come. i can't wait to go home. I'm only here for six months. I was last here over a year ago and things were much better then - I really didn't miss home and was pretty happy living here. Now, I am counting down. It's pretty sad.

yeah sorry i should have specified - I'm much closer to Soho than to Las Heras y Diaz, but it's not a bad walk. ideally, someone who can cut with both scissors and razors.

not looking for anything extravagant - barber shop to a salon - fine with me. what i do care about - no mullets, no rat tails, and trying to get a decent haircut. i see some pretty appalling haircuts on the street! thanks!

Thanks for the replies! Flights appear to be very expensive, but perhaps if I pay in cash at a reputable agency (with my Xoom rate), a flight may be doable. If not, I appreciate the bus tips!

Hi all, Wanting to plan a quick trip up to the Cataratas before it gets extremely hot and am turning to the forum for advice. Is it worth venturing over to the Brazlian side (I will need to obtain a visa). How much are r/t flights to Igauzu? Assuming a fortune, which is the most reputable...

I also feel the same way. Does the Mexican night really only run until 10? I'm at the facultad until 10 on Thursdays.

pretty self explanatory...seeing who else may be out there!

Hi all, Just looking for the best/safe places to order sushi delivery in Palermo. Thanks! Scott

yes - this is the only one in BA. Interestingly, I started Bikram here 15 month ago. Today was my first day back at this studio after getting quite used to my bikram studio in NY. Obviously Bikram is pretty much the same in every Bikram studio in the world, but I forgot about some of the...

i sent myself a transfer from the U.S. two days before I arrived here. no problems.

my favorite place is at the corner of libertad y juncal. i've never had a medialuna that compares.

hi tyler, also a new yorker. just got here a few days ago to do a semester in law school at University of Palermo!

thanks for the advice. seems the phillips filter is the way to go. Last year I kept my tap water in the fridge before drinking it and it was more tolerable, but at room temperature not so great. apparently i may have to take a trip to barrio chino for coconut water!

I know that it's potable, I just forgot that it does not taste great. Where can I find a Brita filter? Also, has anyone seen Coconut Water in BA? I drink it before my Bikram yoga classes, and would love to find it here. Thanks! - s

hi all, two quick questions: 1. mobile company for my iphone? 2. is obtaining a SUBE card easy? thanks! scott
