Took now 4 weeks of classes a 20h/week there, had a great time! nice people, from time to time in the evening organized Dinners - usually in San Telmo. And the most important thing, the teacher made me having fun while learning without lingering around. A high focus on conversation. Adviced it...

OK took the Bus now. Since I coudn't find a description like this in the web I will just write it on my own for whoever it may concern now: Duration was around 2:15 from Paseo Colon/Av.San Juan until the last stop inside the Airport close to Terminal B. This was without any traffic jam or longer...

Thanks! Ya I just simply went to the bus station, waited for one of the busses to come and asked the driver. He also said 2- 2 1/2 hours and that more or less every 30 minutes a bus should come. So I will go a bit earlier and then see how long it takes.

Hey there, does anybody know or can assume how long the 8 takes from ~Independencia/Paseo Colon until Ezeiza? Will I be fine when I take it around 2 hours earlier or does it take longer? Also, my landlord told me I should be aware because these are not the nicest barrios the collectivo passes -...

haha you better get going if you're running late instead of asking how much it costs here ^^ depends also on the value, guess if it's important to be on time you will be willing to pay a higher price, won't you? but since you are posting here before going, I guess the Cab will be too expensive...

Colectivos, subte only when in danger of being late. Taxis just to/from the nearest bus stop when it's too far from where I want to go. No need to pay 10-20 or even much more times to the cab what I pay for the Bus. And most important for me: until now there hasn't been a busdriver trying to...

I am at Ibero Spanish like Intrepid and am having a great time there. Have been here in BsAs for 4 month almost learning nothing, hanging around with fellow exchange students speaking English most of the time, went there and now after 2 weeks I'm able to express myself quite well, only need to...

Just to finish this Thread. Menawhile I've been in Colonia 2 times to get Dollars, both times working out great and including a nice day trip while still making a surplus by exchanging to the blue rate afterwards. I chose the Banred Bank at Gral Flores / Gob. Vasconcellos, liked it because the...

@ElQueso Yeah of cause, don't worry. That's reasonable and I totally understand this. It would have been too easy anyway, wouldn't it have been? ;) But why shouldn't I ask, this is totally new for my, so it was worth a try. And no, I'm not from the government, but of cause there's no way you...

Thank You ElQueso! This sounds good. Seems like I should give that a try. Pesos at the blue rate are just fine, didn't need another currency yet. So what's is the right way to try to get to such a cueva? I mean, can I just ask some people and there is a good chance to meet someone who knows sthg...

Hello everyone, I'm an exchange student from Germany and arrived not long ago in Buenos Aires. Before I came here, I read in several travel guides that I shouldn't bring Euros with me, because it may be dangerous. Now I am here and telling the locals what rate I get at the ATM made them laugh -...
