    just arrived....where should I live

    It's hard to tell you where to stay as I'm not sure what you are looking for. When I was planning my move, and even after I arrived, everyone told me that I "needed" to live in San Telmo, which I did.

    Wendy's is back...

    I'm Asia From America in Argentina-- and I need help

    I agree with Nikad. From the details you've supplied, it sounds like the landlord was presenting you with a pretty standard inventory. It is to protect them from theft and breakage. BUT that is all beside the point as it is in the past. If you want your money, get a lawyer. If you want your...

    Any product recommendations for infants? What kind of oleo, cotton, soap, etc do you use on your baby? I have a newborn and I'm still trying things out. The doctors are pretty specific that I should use hypoallergenic products without perfume, but are less specific on brands. help.

    Pregnancy in Buenos Aires

    I just had my baby 3 weeks ago. He came at 33 weeks during an emergency c-section. I'll spare you the details, but it was a situation in which we were both in danger.
