    You can go to Centro de Diagnostico Rossi, they do all kinds of lab tests and it's usually where most people go since they work will all obras sociales and prepagas (so be prepared for a little waiting time, esp if you go on Saturday). They have several branches in different areas of the city...

    Advice Re Layover At Dfw

    Hi everyone, I will be travelling to Germany with a 10-hour layover at DFW airport (6am till 4pm), and since I´ve never been to Dallas, I was hoping to take the opportunity to do a little sightseeing. From what I´ve found so far, the airport is pretty much far away from everything, and some...

    In connection with the legal field, you might be able to get an internship in one of the big corporate law firms here. Small firms usually deal with local litigation and counseling, but large corporate firms have international clients and may be interested in having an American intern. You can...

    Learning To Cook Using Limited Range Of Local Ingredients

    I think that barrio chino is a good suggestion, both Tina & Co and Casa China have a very nice selection and many products that I have not seen in other stores (they have kale!). Also, try the good branches of the big supermarkets (the ones in fancy neighborhoods are usually much better than...

    Tea Tree Oil Shampoo

    You may find a few brands that make tea tree oil shampoo in Mercado Libre, such as Swiss Just, Laca... At Tina & Co I have seen a brand that has a tea tree oil and rosemary shampoo, and it is allegedly "natural" (although not quite if you know how to read an ingredients label) here is the link...

    Organic Dairy, Yogurt

    I buy it there too, the store is called Granomadre (easily found with Google and they are also on Facebook) and they carry several products made by La Choza. La Choza also has its own spot at El Galpon de Chacarita, but I never really checked if there was a significant price difference.

    Is There Kombucha Yet?

    Hi! I've also been looking for kombucha for a while, and the only place I've found it is at a healthy food store called Felices Las Vacas, the address is Las Heras 2211 (one block away from Pueyrredon Ave). I was there about two months ago and bought a 1 quart bottle of kombucha tea for about 40...

    The Pill

    I agree with the suggestion of taking the pill box to the pharmacy so that they can give you an equivalent with the same hormones and dosage. Also, you could always contact the local office of Bayer and check if you can find the same pill you are taking and where, in case you have trouble...

    Container Garden Pests Aphids/mites Help!

    I've been dealing with all kinds of pests in my vegetable garden, mostly aphids. I tried "garlic tea" and neem oil unsuccessfully, but what has worked pretty well in my case is spraying a mix of water and jabon potasico on the leaves around 3 times per week. I bought it at Buenos Aires Market...

    Being Scammed By Hertz Argentina

    Maybe I'm too late with the advice here, but don't go to the police, you will waste half your day and they will not do anything. Go to the local office of defensa del consumidor from wherever you are and file a claim with them. In Bs As City it works very well, but I don't know where you are. It...

    Facial Moisturizer

    Hi! Like other people said, there are 3 French brands available here that specialize in sensitive skin: Vichy, Avene and La Roche Posay (sold only in pharmacies). They are somewhat expensive, but most big pharmacies usually have special discounts for these brands every month. I usually buy them...

    Where To Find Organic Blackstrap Molasses?

    Hi, I've been trying to buy some organic blackstrap molasses but no luck so far. I've checked supermarkets and many dieteticas, but all I found was just one only brand everywhere, not organic and without ingredient list, origin, etc... Also tried Mercado Libre but the listings are all for...

    Witch Hazel

    In what form do you want it? As far as I know, the herb is called hammamelis in Spanish, and you can buy it in bulk at a dietetica or herboristeria. I have bought some leaves to make home made skin toner.

    Organic Products Fair In Parque Las Heras

    Guys, you need to go early in the morning, as soon as it opens, 10, 10.30 tops. You'll be able to look around and shop comfortably without all the crowds. I went on Sunday morning and it was perfectly fine. It may not be ideal, but it's best for those who actually want to shop and not just...

    If you are using a cuenta corriente there is no way to avoid the tax. It applies to all debits and credits made in a cuenta corriente (put in a very simple way, the law is actually quite complicated and several other transactions are also subject to the tax, like electronic transfers, etc)...
