Hello: I moved about 1 year ago from the USA to Bahia Blanca with my 2 kids and husband. It's very rare to find expats coming here, particularly to Bahia as most move to Buenos Aires (Capital Federal). Adjusting has been a process. I experienced a huge culture shock for the first few months...

Now that you all know why I'm here, I can't begin to express my big concern with this unemployment issue: whether I'll be able to find anything at all, and/or how long it will take before I can find something. As a professional woman, I'm going nuts being home all day long. The good thing is...

Hello everyone! Thank you once again for all your responses. My situation might sound a bit peculiar -- I mean it's very unique, I should say. The reason for moving to Bahia Blanca is because I married an Argentine. We have 2 kids, who were born in the USA. We decided to move here because we...

Thank you so much for your responses and the tips posted here. I'm not currently in Buenos Aires, Capital Federal. I'm actually in Bahia Blanca, which is a city located south of Capital Federal (a 5 to 6 hr drive) -- it's got a population of approximately 400,000 people. I'm sure finding a...

Hello everyone, I recently moved from the United States to Argentina. The reason for this posting is because I am having a very difficult time finding a job and I'm beginning to lose hope. Sometimes I wonder whether I made the right choice of moving with my 2 kids and my husband here. I am...

Hello, I will be moving to Bahia Blanca, Argentina, with my husband and 2 children (7 year-old girl and 5 year-old boy) in approximately 1 month. I would like to socialize with other expatriates with children so that my kids can play and easily adjust. If anyone out there is in the same...

Hello jdr7137! My husband and I will be moving to Bahia Blanca in about 3 weeks also with our kids. I'm so glad I found other expatriates in this forum because most people end up going to Buenos Aires. We plan to spend Christmas with my husband's family and looking for bilingual schools for...

I would recommend you attend a good institute to learn the structure and technicalities of the Spanish language, and then try to socialize a lot with Spanish only speaking people or bilingual. Immerse yourself in the language. That's the way to go. You'll learn in a heartbeat. You can practice...

Diane, did you get your CPA certification in the United States? How do you keep up with CPE credits so you don't lose your license now that you live in Argentina? The reason I ask is because I am an Auditor/Accountant and my family and I are planning to move to Argentina in August 2012. Is it...

I would like to be part of the mom's group in Argentina. How can I join? I don't have a Facebook account. I closed it a while back, but I can open it again, if needed. How do you do a PM? Sorry, I'm new on this Forum, which I happened to fund by coincidence. Thanks, Jeny

Don't take me wrong. I know Catholic churches are Christians. Perhaps I did not explain myself well. Perhaps I should have said other Protestan religions. Sorry. Good luck! :)

Hi Gorilla Monsoon! My family and I are actually planning to move to Argentina this year in August. We have finally decided to leave the United States. I've been to Argentina a few times already on vacation and I really enjoyed it. Moving is a different story. What has been your experience...

:) No, you're in Argentina now!!! he he he.... but I have honestly learned a lot since I started reading the Bible. I can understand a lot of stuff that I did not before. I know latin american countries are more catholic-driven. Trust me, I know. I have an uncle in my family who is a...
