Another cool coffee shop I found in the area is Pottery Coffee and Deli. There’s a nice outdoor/indoor area that feels very safe and you still get some cool breeze. And you can see through the window someone making pottery. Pottery Coffee & Deli https://goo.gl/maps/mEM8bgYkXzBDAyaJ9

I was there yesterday actually. I requested a vegan salad with lots of protein. Amazing.

Oh, sorry Admin. Looks like I went off topic again.

For now I found a nice coffee shop about 8 minute walk from where I currently live. It’s got an upstairs outdoor seating with lots of shade: BLACK RISTRETTO +54 11 5144-8527 https://goo.gl/maps/nkYbV9nAcVgFpPAp8 Feels very safe, and I can enjoy the good weather. Every week I book a new...

Yes, I’m very worried about it. The street seating with a laptop isn’t very safe unless you’re in some part of the street seating that’s a bit more enclosed which is a bit safer. And then there’s also the possibility that someone notices you and follows you home. Yes, I try not to go into bad...

Are these violent robberies a real threat in Buenos Aires, I mean statistically speaking do I need to worry about it? I had so far a good experience, and have been mainly worried about pick pockets or someone grabbing my electronics and running off. I noticed many wearing their backpacks on the...

What do you recommend I keep as an emergency cash in my phone case? I can only have one note in this case? The phone case cash is for if I forgot to bring my wallet with me, or if my wallet gets lots or stolen, etc. I’m thinking maybe just keep the $100 USD in there then.

I got a Benji in my phone case, but since I’m in Argentina I thought maybe to change it to a high denomination peso? What is a 100 dollar equivalent for peso? Not necessarily exchange rate equivalent, but something as useful as a $100 bill is in USA that can be used in an emergency, but yet...

One trick I use is to fold a large denomination bill and put it in between my phone case and my phone. Saved me a few times. Depending on your phone case you might be able to do multiple bills.

Earlier I was doing the same but realized the bills can get wet and sweaty on a hot day. I’m now using this Mighty Wallet which I took from my old stuff before leaving for Argentina, looks like the company is still around: https://mightywallet.shop/ Very good and light weight wallet, made of...

I still get no results found from the whatsapp chat, but this time for some reason it says if you did it more than 72 hours ago to fill out this form at a website that it links to. Using Google translate to translate the site throws off the calendar part of the form that you must complete, but...

I think I’m looking for an interpreter, or perhaps just a personal assistant who can speak English and gets paid per job, like a contractor as opposed to a regular employee. Is there like an upwork site for Argentina?

I tried calling 147 but it was in Spanish and I couldn’t figure it out.

Do you know of a good translation service that can do Spanish to English translation assistance, like when I need to call somewhere for example, they can do 2 way calling with me and help to translate?

I got my PCR test (nasal swap) done at La Rural on Sunday, but didn’t get my results back yet. I used their chat on their site, as well as the whatsapp chat, (similar robot chats) to get the results and it says it can’t find any results. Not sure what’s going on. I entered all the info...

Not sure what it is. Sometimes it can be the downtown or city nature of things, which can mess with GPS also. When I was working in highrise buildings in downtown Dallas, sometimes I wouldn't get any internet in some parts of the building. Not sure what this situation is but the building...

I think we posted about the same time. Thanks.

I stuck it out the window and after switching on/off airplane mode it did indeed show LTE. Preferred Network Type shouldn’t be set to 5G? I though you set it to 5G and if it can’t find that then it goes to 4G. It says in my phone the 5G setting is recommended. I did set it to 4G however to...

Activate Personal prepaid sim but still getting H or H+ at my current Airbnb.

I got the Personal sim. I went to the Personal store on Santa Fe street I think, and they said they don’t sell prepaid sims, and I should go to a Kiosk nearby. Went to a Kiosk store and the gentleman didn’t speak any English but was nice, sold me a sim but said I must go to Personal and...
