    Why expats doesnt like get in love or get an argie partner?

    These posts crack me up! I figure if you find the right person it doesn't matter if you're an expat or Argentine or from outer space, if you truly love someone you'll find a way to make things work. Regards, A Hopeless Romantic

    Location advice

    If you like to surf or enjoy other water sports like skin diving then go to Costa Rica. For fishing try Belieze. Both are safe and clean.

    Is it a good time to go back?

    Unemployment in the USA is much higher that 9% to 10%. What is not factored in are those unemployed who have run out of their unemployment benefits and people like myself who are either self-employed or underemployed (WalMart here I come!). The US economy is still in shambles and rising...

    Looking Back...

    quote: "Some other things that stick out in the US since I've been back is that everyone is fat. I mean, it's a real problem here (and one that has been talked about over and over, but just damn)." Welcome back. See ya at McDonalds.

    Been down here 3 months and got beat-up & mugged

    Reading these posts about the violence in the streets of BA has me rethinking my visit. If crime is up, and seems like it's increasing right along with Argentina's inflation, then I can only imagine what things will be like in 6 months to a year. This really bums me out. I plan on visiting BA in...

    Been down here 3 months and got beat-up & mugged

    I plan on heading down to BA in late October by myself and to stay for a few weeks. Aside from La Boca, what other barrios should I avoid in the daytime? Also, is pepper spray legal? I keep a small spray bottle in my car for trips to Los Angeles. Perhaps a squirt or two would keep robbers at bay.

    Jewish English Speaking Community in BA

    I love a good Rueben sandwich and meet Jews at my deli here in the states. I have to believe the same would apply in BA. Good luck.

    Affordable Dolce Vita in Buenos Aires?

    Jeeze people! Just let the guy go to BA find this stuff out for himself. He's only 30. It's not like he's signing up for life. I say, "have a great time." If it sucks, then try something else.

    Buenos Aires growing obesity problem

    I live in Southern California where there is a fast food restaurant on practically every corner and guess what? Just about everyone is FAT!!! Even the kids! We even have McDonald's in WalMart! I thought obesity was a problem specific to Americans but it looks like it's a world wide epidemic...

    Insecurity Here is Real

    Sorry to hear about a family being robbed in any venue. I think crime is on the rise everywhere and I think the rise is directly related to the world economic crisis. Granted, there will always be criminals but when times are tough there seems to be more of them. One of the earlier posts...

    New to BA and this forum

    Hello to all out there! I plan on heading down to BA for the first time in the fall of this year. I'd like opinions on the best month (October?). I'm looking forward to this trip because I want to see where a few of my ancestors lived and also to see, just out of curiosity, if I look anything...
