hi Lucy, sounds lovely! But as I'm in Nuñez, it would be too complicated to venture much further than off the Cabildo/Santa Fe or Libertador corridors! What area are you in?

a happy wife = a happy life!

I'm bringing a cheddar corn bread I think... well, Fynbo corn bread!

Khairy expat, lately your posts seem agitated, more disheveled than those in the past... I think the people here actually might be expressing genuine concern. Are you OK?

GMX, gotta ask you about Bolson and Esquel next time we meet!!

I'll be there. maybe around 5 though. (it's far)

I think minimum for the student visa with Spanish classes (through the UBA's language institute, CUI?) is 4 hours of class / day. Everyone overstays. they say they are gong to start cracking down on it, I don't think so. Wait 3 months and see if it happens. You'll probably get tired of it after...

Yeah, no fireworks raining down on the coast, just some crazy lightning showers to kill young beachgoers!

It's called a Slut Walk, they do it in other cities around the world trying to reclaim names and labels that denigrate women. (I think)

Is it not a feria with stands representing foreign countries?! I've been misled... they already have Noche de las Provincias!

LOL that is EXACTLY how many here would describe the Argentine women!! So funny. Although they are more beautiful here (percentage-wise)

West coast is more expensive always :( If your hubby works en blanco and can pay in pesos, you can pay in cuotas without interest on some websites (and when peso devalues over the course 12 months it costs less and less to pay it off) and he can apply to get the AFIP 35% charge back at the end...

Ah good call making it near the Book club which conveniently starts at 7PM!! I'll try to make it to coffee chat but can't confirm 100% yet.

I always wanted to do a stint here, heard it was a great city. I went traveling in Peru/Bolivia/Easter Island and met my now-boyfriend (an Argy) in Bolivia when I got my bag stolen and he helped me out *wink* *wink*. Here I am almost 3.5 years later, getting a bit tired of it but who knows what...

But is there a fee... I meant 'enter on a tourist visa' i.e. non-working visa.. AMericans pay something like $150 to go to China as tourists.

ah, I suppose I could try to go do it at Newbery Airport before I our road trip... that's only 10 minutes drive from my house. THANKS FOR POINTING ME TO THAT SITE!! :)

Just a few possible reasons: Can live/work in any Mercosur country legally without sponsorship. Can come and go without worrying about getting rejected by a pissy immigration officer. Can leave for 20 years and come back when things are better / when life somewhere else gets rough / when you...

No answers? No one has paid the overstay fee online before leaving??

It's just some papers?! I was under the impression that if they fold the paper in thirds and it comes in a normal-sized envelope and the weight that only a few papers should be, it goes straight to your door and not through Retiro.

This is hearsay, but someone told me that it goes like this. There are 11 (?) judges and 2 of them really do not like the fact that people apply for citizenship through the federal courts, so they try to block it or push it forward indefinitely. If you get assigned one of these judges, you can...
