Ariel, the truth is they know the word. I have heard some portenos say it, in acceptance of making a mistake. But do not bet your life on it that you will hear it because it is not an easy feat for other people to say it because to ADMIT a mistake is atypical for some people. You be the better...

Is there really is an age limit in the "Girl's Meet up on Sunday" group?

I have a family member visiting me for a few weeks, he is such a sweet young man, 18yo but speaks no spanish. He loves archery and photography - he is here to help me out with some photo set up for a business. Can anyone suggest hook ups related to archery, photography or even fencing (sword)...

hotmama, I have seen one on Cabildo. It was in the store "used to be known as MILOFT". I am not sure what the name of that store is now, I pass by there everyday and stubbornly call it MILOFT, even if they were bought out. The store is a block after the SONY store, but across the street from...

I do not know soccer very much but isn't Maradona the heavy set Boca player that evaded taxes in Italy and his watches were confiscated during the last soccer game there? Isn't he the one who was into drugs and alcohol? Went into rehab and all that drama? I might have my soccer players mixed up...

alejandroaru, sorry but there is no way around the taxes and factor in conversion (buy and sell rate). You will need a bank account number (safest if in your name) you do not want to play or risk loosing any portion of that money. The US will ask the sender what the money is for,a nd you will...

Noise, you forgot the noise. 3:1 exchange rate is still good. Imagine if you have the euro - golly!

C, importing into the US regardless of what part of the world you are coming from and what good you are going to bring in will require both continued presence in there during license application, sound business advisors and depending on how big your investments are, you might think of getting...

I would like to ask the opposite question that Christopholous is asking - does anyone have any experience in IMPORTING various items into Argentina? We are not talking about textile here -since to import textile and fabrics into Argentina is "discouraged". Licenses procurement is my main...

JG, congratulations! Commiting to real estate in any county is a big step. Commiting to real estate here in BsAs is a VERY BIG step. Find yourself a very good advisor in terms of taxes and its application of the law to you as a foreigner. You must know by now that the laws that applies to the...

An idea like that deserves my full support. The boys in this site are "good men" in the making they deserve some sweets. Count me in.

Dear galalita, I apologize I did not mean to confuse anyone with my question -what I was asking was it was ok for me to invite new friends over at my house/condo even if they are NEW friends and that practice goes against the norm here in BsAs. I hope I did not offend anyone by sounding like...

We all know that it is a fact that it take takes years of friendship to be even invited to a portenos home for tea and migas or dinner. My question is, amongst the US community of expats is it common to invite and be invited in their homes for a home cooked meal and wine? I am seriously...

This thread is old. The best advise anyone has ever given me, was to pack your common sense as if it was a page on your passport. Essential and mandatory. Otherwise this report just like the "report" referred herein is o-l-d. Next topic please. :-)

PK, the last time I asked you will owe Argentina's government 80% of the market value of your car for duties and taxes (diplomats excempt as stated) and this applies to Arg. nationale and foreigners. For furniture - we opted to buy in BsAs - if you have favorite furniture pieces in your life...

Besides taking the buquebus, one can drive to Uruguay, right? Has anyone tried this?

I took Tamara Pilates classes when they had a branch on Maure. It was great. I have moved on to others things as form of exercise but I can highly recommend Tamara.

Hi, you can go to any Miloft ( I am not sure what their name is now) thye have stores on Cabildo. They are everywhere. The tin/aluminum is what you are looking for right? In the US the metal muffin pans are still around but the thing is everyone who loves to cook has converted to silicone ones -...
