Those DO look much more appetizing!

Thanks everyone!

Here's a link to the English page. My student got it from his travel agent. Hope it helps future travelers. https://virtual.provinciapagos.com.ar/ArgentineTaxes/

Hi all. I'm getting a new iPhone and want to use my older one as my phone in Argentina. It's been difficult for me to adapt to the primitive little phone I got for my Claro account. However my iPhone is an AT&T-dedicated phone, and would have to be modified to use with another company. That's...

Thank you, JoeGillis!

Does anyone have a link available to a page where my student can pay his reciprocity fee online? He's only found a page in Spanish, which doesn't help him. Thanks!

And what about fresh salmon? I've been avoiding salmon in BA because I've heard it's all farm-raised and badly fed. Then someone protested, "All the salmon here comes from Chile". Does that somehow guarantee that it's clean, healthy fish? What IS the scoop on salmon?

Hi Nitigram. Never did get an answer. Just what came after your post here. Back in the US I'm in heaven eating Wild Planet sardines and salmon. Everything wild caught and sustainably produced. Even the cans are particularly safe. Most of all, their fish is delicious. I feel like bring a...

Somewhereinba, did you receive your order from biovea?

Why do you say it's "not authentic"? It's traditional "tango escenario" (except for that one contortionist move). Nothing to do with social tango in the milongas, but that's not what show tango is about. Nice filming, Montauk_Project. If you wanted to film tango dancers again, I would...

I agree about taking them to a milonga. You can also find out which milongas feature an exhibition by a guest couple at around half-time - so they can see authentic social tango, and a performance geared not for tourists but for tango people. If you like the milonga idea, with our without a...

Now you're talking!! Sounds like good news, homeinbuenosaires! I'm back in the US for 6 weeks (eating grass fed beef from Whole Foods), but Aleina Dee and I have continued discussing this, and are looking for resources. Great that your guy is passionate about organic food and wary about "bad...

Thanks, Anna. I look forward to seeing you all in a couple of months!

I leave for the US Wednesday morning, and Tuesday I'm going to a milonga. I'll be back mid-March, though and if the BAExpat paleo dinner happens in-between my sojourns here, I look forward to hearing all about it!

Anna.l and Thuraya, I would love to also, and I could do it for the occasion of my despedida, since I'm leaving on January 29 (with the intention of returning in a couple of months). However, I'm in the throes of a professional project that I have to get done before I leave, and can't take on...

I sent you both private messages.

Thanks for sharing your list of favorite milongas, Cialu. My "makeover" consisted of: 1) wearing a colorful strapless dress, rather than my various black palazzo pants wih tube tops, or worse, with black long sleeves; 2) tying all my hair on my left side to fall neatly over my shoulder...

Thank you for the kind offer. I sent you a private message. (I had a loaner last week, which helped me delay my mercado libre adventure.)

In Italy everyone eats pizza with a knife and fork. I lived there for 20 years and used to note with amusement in pizzerias how at a rowdy table of teenage guys, when the pizzas arrived they suddenly all had impeccable table manners. Italians, even "contadini" (simple farmers), treat food with...

Wow, 2Guys!! This is a huge help, and very reassuring. Thank you so much!!
