    Top Gear Patagonia Pt1 - 27Th Dec

    Yop, if three Argentines were to drive 220 km/h on British roads with one car having "Mvnas Argnts" as a license plate, they'd be welcome with hugs and kisses I'm sure. (Or a French guy driving 130mph in a Southern US State with a sticker "Jail GWB!" = he would get into serious trouble lol. And...

    In Desperate Need Of Help.

    Indeed, would be easier if the OP would give more details (age, language spokens, educational background at least). Is there any way you can work online for foreign companies?

    Cash Or Azimo?

    How can you hide & seal this?! At worst, remove a door from the hinges, dig out a hole beneath the door, put the money/seal & replace, but using a safe would be the last thing I would do.

    Cash Or Azimo?

    Just to shed a different light on the story, and not knowing if the OP knows really well the local idiosyncrasy (don't know judging from the post): For those who've lived here since a few years. Would you bring 15.000 USD in cash in a local accomodation (what is it? temporary rental, hotel...

    Living In Ba

    It's a matter of negotiating skills: when applying for a part time job (receptionist in a bed & breakfast), ask for 3.000 USD then settle for less.

    Growing Herbs, Etc In A Secluded Little Yard...

    If your balcony receives 5/6 hours of sunlight per day, even 4, that should be fine. Avoid black pots (they get hot = bad for the roots).

    The French president Félix Faure died while having sex with a prostitute inside the presidential house. Chirac's nickname was "3 minutes, shower included", since he was quite a sex addict (but he was quite handsome too as far as I can judge) The wife of president Pompidou was involved into...

    I heard those rumors too... But well, if France is thrown out, so should be the UK too. What keeps France being considered might be this as well (the M51)

    Yop, Sarkozy is trying to come back, he must first be chosen as the official candidate of the Right party. Not sure he can manage that. I voted for him in 2007, thinking he would completely reform the country, but in the end, the debt has grown by 800 billion euros during his presidency (if I'm...

    Oh yes, other times, other mentalities. 1 or 2 of his sons joined the military forces too, and he insisted that they would fight on the first line. Check also how well the newspaper articles were written in the 1950s press (with no spellcheck tool, etc.). Our modern journalists are pure jokes...

    Situation was quite different from what it is today. Only for the luxury market (based on my own research during my university time + when I worked in a French auction house): France had been the number 1 (all segments included) for the luxury/Art world since the mid 17th century (Louis XIV)...

    The Huffpost also quotes 1967 for one of those round trips by a French battleship -> http://archives-lepo...a-dette-us.html Finally a solid source, indeed, France started converting USD into gold in 1960 http://www.persee.fr/web/revues/home/prescript/article/ecofi_0987-3368_1993_num_26_3_2015...

    Seems De Gaulle started converting dollars into Gold in 1964 (some other sources like this one mention since 1958, but this is a site by bozos from the extreme left, not reliable enough http://www.alterinfo.net/De-Gaulle-l-or-et-le-Dollar_a80554.html ). Here's a press conference in 1965 where...

    De Gaulle sent the ship full of dollars in 1967 (If only he was still alive & in power...). More recently, Germany tried to get back his gold from the Fed... Unfortunately the Gold can't be seen & given back. Ponzi scheme anyone? :P
