"Would you like to go large with you brag sir?"

I would advise to have a clear plan of what type of work you'd like to do in Europe and be sure that there could be opportunities for you. I know a few Argentinians that have developed a successful career in Europe but for every one of those cases there is a case of someone getting on a plane...

With a reasonable income in dollars, euros, yen you can live better here than in most parts of Europe. This obviously is something that is admittedly easier for a foreigner arriving here from abroad.

Another note to add is that the vast majority of posters on this site are what would be considered "macristas", supporters of the opposition, so any comment about the current government and political situation should be taken with a very large pinch (or truck load) of salt.

Ah that's good to know, my sister might get around to getting my document sent within a two year time frame at least..

Well my sister in Scotland who is 29 has had 6 weeks to send my criminal record check for an apostille and just never got around to it... Anyway, how old can an apostilled and translated criminal record check be and still be accepted by migraciones for residency? Trying to work out if I can...

My wife would slap the tee total S out of me if a cheque/bill arrived for 25k pesos.

From my experience most people with manners and basic education are extremely forgiving when someone speaks a language that is not their own.

I think its best to file tourist bank account" alongside the "digital nomad visa" under "Things that will never happen".

I can understand why he packed his S up and went home!

My last few trips to WU Avenida Cordoba have been a disaster as well apart from one day when I went around 16:30 and found it empty, however I put that down to lady luck being on my side. There is one woman that seems to have it in for me (typically at window number 6) that refuses to give me...

My wife and I will move to the province later this year and have to weigh up our options over her apartment in Once. Either sell it at a loss due to a building that is under never ending repairs (read damage limitation) and having a kitchen wall half open awaiting Metro Gas approval for the...

French and Italian people cringe at anglo-saxons that become wine and cheese snobs after a couple of vacations there.

Acceptable levels of noise especially when it comes to music. Every country of course has a sizable minority of people who believe they can blast music as loud as they want to at all times of day but Argentina would have to take gold if this was an Olympic event. The rules seem to be that...

A worker at the large WU on Montevideo y Cordoba told me that I shouldn't have issues taking out 400 000 pesos at a time (this was when the rate was around 205 pesos at WU).

I'd argue it's a Porteño issue rather than an Argentinian one, ask anyone that lives in the provinces what their opinions are of the city's population (male or female) and it won't be a positive one...

Cheers, my wife has legal income so looks like I'm going to be "officially" a house husband also :)
