Re getting into town from airport: You won't have much luck finding Uber or any ride sharing at the airport. They are mostly blocked by the taxis. For the most part the taxis are fine. They should have all their government papers visible inside the taxi. Also the meter will be visible. If its...

Have not been to Russia so I can't say. Sorry. Maybe you can tell me if you go? First time was around a month and second time was about six when my sister had her child.

I was being inflammatory on purpose. I admit that, but USA has serious issues that flag waving americans cannot see somehow. Perhaps its being too close to the problem? I am not anti-american either. I have lots of family in USA who live there happily and are citizens. Personally, having been...

Lol! The fact that this question is even asked is outrageous. The USA does not give a damn about the less fortunate or those on the edge of society. Your healthcare system is broken and those who may need it are left with so much debt that they are cast out of society if they cannot afford it...

Yes I am new here. I understand that I have not lived your or any Argentines experience for very long. I'm just tired of people (mainly expats) who shit all over Argentina while literally living in the country? Questions like "Why don't all Venezuelans go to USA instead of Argentina?" are so...

I hope this is sarcasm. USA is its own "Sh!t hole". Which country am I describing below? Free healthcare, Free education (primary to tertiary), Spanish speaking, Low cost of living, Democratic, Generally welcoming to immigrants, Strong links to social protections. Pretty much everything...

The saddest thing is that these people holding these symbols would all be seen as inferior if they tried to join that movement in the US...

Having followed this news I doubt they are going anywhere. In all likelihood, in a semi-stable (regular free and fair elections) multiparty democracy you will see that more and more people voting for parties that they think represent them. You will start seeing the big parties settling in around...

We have looked at Uruguay as an option but in reality we have not been there to see what the life is like there. I am attracted to the relatively quick residency permit that one can get and the banking sector seems really open and stable. Things working against Uruguay is that life seems far...

Firstly, yes crime is a huge reason we are planning to move. Let me say that crime disproportionately affects black and low income people but, it is bad here for everyone no matter race. Everyone is scared of being robbed, car jacked, their house invaded etc. It is true that There is the issue...

I think going to the country and seeing for yourself what it is like there, what people are like, prices of things, public transport useage, looking at houses etc. You can't catch everything but you can get a good idea. We spent a whole month in Mendoza and just tried to get an idea of the...

Thanks so much for all the information that you guys have provided. I do appreciate the inputs. Some things we may need to consider more but like anything in life its all about perspective. Right now we are not happy where we are. The immigration aspect of 90 day runs won't apply to us as my...

No one said anything about an easy life. Its just a different one. I am under no illusion that life is difficult in Argentina and it has its own problems but contrary to many peoples opinions there are places worse than Argentina.

Hi Forum Members. My wife and I are looking into moving to Argentina from South Africa. We are looking to make a lifestyle change largely as a response to increasingly difficult living conditions in South Africa. We are specifically looking at Mendoza province. My wife is Argentinian and we...
