You already have the Bolivian tourist visa? If so you should be okay...I don't think the "officers" are allowed to handle money at the borders. It would be too complicated. The Argentines may give you a hard time coming back in, have your acting skills on point!

Thanks, will start the process now! Will be an interesting exercise to measure efficiency;)

(By "American" I mean from the United States - trained myself) I know I'm a bit early, but just want to get organized. Have any of you ever gone through the absentee ballot process? How annoying/complicated is it? Tips/suggestions appreciated (sarcasm/ mean comments - put it in your pocket and...

After living in Brazil for almost 2 years, I can honestly tell you that if you had gone to a different immigration officer it would have probably been different, they are all SO different, it really makes you wonder if they all have the same employee manual. There's always someone who wants to...

Where in the world is it sunny ... seriously?!?! ... Mark Z lost 2 billion dollars on Monday ... Economy is shaky everywhere.

It's a humanitarian mission. They're giving "Clarin Lies" socks to poor children. http://bucket3.clanacion.com.ar/anexos/fotos/98/medios-y-politica-1536198w645.jpg

Like she would put her manicure or hair in jeopardy! No, silly...she'll throw someone in the ring to wrestle the Spanish...wonder who. Maybe I'll start that Raw diet now too to cut down on using the stove.

This is getting interesting ... when does the arm or mud wrestling start? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-18127122 Buying some sweaters and a hot water bottle tomorrow.

It's not in Palermo, but Jobs may be the place for us...thanks! Not doing any bow and arrow business though, my insurance won't cover me if there's an accident;).

Any recommendations for places that have Ping Pong tables and maybe pool in Palermo? A fun laid back place for a casual date.

Luanda is apparently the most expensive city in the world, from an expat perspective. Mumbai has the most expensive house in the world at 1 billion, http://framework.latimes.com/2010/10/25/most-expensive-home-in-the-world-has-27-floors-ocean-and-slum-views/#/0, Nigeria ... a country that is SO...

I don't think it's a "cultural issue," I think it more be a wealth disparity issue. I think the larger the wealth gap, the more crime you will find. Cue Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo ... etc. I don't think Armenia and Vietnam have as many wealthy people as Buenos Aires does. Just look at the...

"(Reuters) - Brazil plans to end automatic import licensing for about 10 perishable products including apples, raisins, wheat flour, potatoes and some cheeses and wines in retaliation against rising trade barriers in Argentina, a senior Brazilian government official told Reuters on Monday...

NYC to Europe is a piece of cake. South America is complicated..the company I used to get things to Brasil is now under an FBI investigation (cue: awkward silence) When I lived in the UK I sent everything back and forth no problems with USPS. But it was "stuff" not furniture. This place has a...

Thanks, I'll give that site a try. I've been obsessed with it since I read about this project http://casualdata.com/newsknitter/ years ago. Most people have no idea what I'm talking about though. Keep me in the loop if you find someone/place!

Me too! I've tried to do the tutorials, but really hit a brick wall.

I sent my stuff from NY to Rio via boat, 2 wardrobe boxes FILLED, it took 3months and $500. I think it would be better to look for a company in the US that ships here than the other way around.

It's the same thing in NYC with the Bronx and Harlem. I TOTALLY know that ... Ingelwood has some really nice parts ... and so does Compton. Ladeira Heights is also very upscale. However, the post that I was replying to was NOT referring to the positive aspects of those communities;), his...

Have any of you ordered AND received(most important) things from overstock.com? On the site it says that they include customs fees in the prices.

I'm Black and speak English, and am NOT from Ingelwood, or any other "hood" for that matter. Maybe you want to pack that "ism" into a first class mail envelope and send it BACK to the US. I think the correo will be open tomorrow and can assist you.
