Yes. Things are changing in Argentina but not quite sure if that’s unfortunate! Definitely not a gringo pensioners’ paradise any more!

Why are you limiting yourself to Recoleta only?

Haha true. Great if you can go to pool instead of working but then make sure you got the means for it.

Up to a certain quantity and price the government didn’t care but if it’s export in bulk then it was another story. Whatever you wanted to import from Argentina doubled in price. Because you said eyewear; there’s a brand called Absurda. They have a store in Soho. I have a pair of glasses that...

And yes; that’s the problem! Argentina got the talent, knowledge and everything else to have global brands but unfortunately the previous political and fiscal situations made it impossible for SMEs. It was so sad. I tried to export some products from Argentina and it was impossible due to the...

That’s the thing!! Government should make the notes unavailable! It can be done. I have witnessed that in Turkey 20 years ago. All of a sudden under the table payments have vanished and the country has benefitted from that a lot. Card payments only or bank transfers.

Now that we found the glasses, all sorted! :-)

it’s not as fun as it was before. I wouldn’t like here if I was single. It was great during the 90s. Not the same vibe anymore. But it’s a great place to raise kids. I don’t think I can find a country club house with a swimming pool in the garden and tennis courts within the community for $1500...

What are you talking about!? It’s irrelevant! S dl A maybe expensive for you but not relevant to comparing the prices. Los Frutos is nothing fancy, upscale nor a tourist trap! We are not talking here where to find cheap clothing or kitchenware but how expensive it is here due to the lack of...

Puerto de Frutos stores. Nothing fancy, made in Argentina and overpriced. Don’t know where you saw cheaper stuff but I always had hard time finding inexpensive kitchenwares or beddings or even clothing. Those tasteless (there are some great ones as well) unstylish clothing at those stupid prices...

After buying $1 ikea water glasses for $6 in BsAs, I really can’t wait to see the local industry go away! They built their businesses on ripping off the public with the help of the protectionism! They have to compete! They have to export or go away.

Cutting everywhere unnecessary helps to have public sources ( cash) to prevent the dengue outbreak for example. But if you waste those funds to buy yourself votes by funding useless things then you deal with more crucial things. I can see a lot of things changing in a good way. I am importing...

Obviously there are some people here who were expecting the transformation to succeed already! Clearly they have no idea how economy functions especially when you inherit a mess!

The government has every right to cut the budget. Argentine tax payers can not and should not pick up the tab for the education of foreign students who don’t pay it back to Argentina in any way! They caome, graduate and leave. AR colleges have good reputation but it is harder to maintain the...

First talk to them. Portenos are lovely people. I’m sure he’ll understand. If not, report it. If you find it too complicated then ask your landlord to deal with it. After all he/she wouldn’t want to loose a gringo tenant. When I first came here with my Arg wife; there was a big party every night...

You can find his number a few posts above if interested.

Yes.

Hello. I play at GEBA when in CABA. I have an amazing coach for 12000 pesos per hour.

Have crisp 100s not even a stamp on them. Keep them for when you need cash. But many places like supermarkets etc I always use my foreign debit/credit card and seems like I get the best deal.
