An aging family member of mine, living in Capital, has two Colt 45 handguns that need cleaning (legal with all paperwork in order) . He thinks they have not been fired in about 20 years since his days at the local gun club and the guns themselves are about 30 years old. ideally we are looking...

hey there, welcome. I'm also a filmmaker. (writer/producer) shot a feature in Bs As and in Salta, but that was in 2006 when things were just as beautiful, but a lot cheaper. Am here writing a script for our next project and would be interested in meeting up for a beer/coffee whatever also.

wait...I thought THIS was the new 100 peso note! :)

i'm sure there are people who would take this job, but my first instinct is that 100 ARG seems very low pay for both expats or locals for the job.... you might want to consider raising that if you want someone actually capable and 'reliable'. either way good luck with the event.

think you win 'best title for a thread'...

lol. "we buy at 000000"..... because, "we would never buy that crap" just wouldn't fit.

when i first joined BAEXPATS, i did a survey over a week of people on here. the group size was about 70. that was about 2 years ago. most people are NOT traveling tourists here for a few months: -45% were Americans, 20% were British, 11% were Canadian, 5% were Irish. the rest were represented...

ok..so I'm bored on this rainy 4th of july, but FYI: July is a busy month for Independence Days around the world. the ONLY logical conclusion is that we tend to have revolutions when our kids are on school vacations and are with us 24/7.... :) Burundi - July 1 Canada - July 1 Rwanda - July...

An expat comes to work and/or live with the intention of one day moving back to his/her home country (or somewhere else). An immigrant moves to another country with the intention of residing there permanently.

they are doing some big party for big wigs from 11-3pm i think today. the whole hood is under serious "protection". the streets near the embassy are closed and they even have one of those Argentine "riot gun tanks" which they roll out and put on the street every year. don't think we got so much...

did find this if it helps, but have no idea the year the survey was done... based on yearly salaries in pesos http://www.salaryexplorer.com/salary-survey.php?loc=10&loctype=1

perhaps if you indicated what field, what level of experience you have and even what someone would be getting in the UK for similar employment, we may be able to help you with our best guesses. but the info you supplied so far is too vague for even a guess...

there not the deli style pickles north americans are used to. the pickles here are "agridulce" or sweet. i haven't found any other kind here so far, even the large jars of the German pickles are still sweet. love to hear if anyone knows of a place....

Facebook and my mother think i am... google thinks I have potential.

i think i was one of the two responders. :) i would be interested in joining. (i'm a movie producer trying my hand at script writing)

I posted this about a month ago, it's very good for those that missed it. and truth is, I have added many of those expressions to my spanglish. :)

I say go for it. Your adventure will be what you make of it. my only advice is to have enough money to give yourself a safety net so u can go a few months without work and fly home when you are ready. the $5000 USD may not be enough to give you the chance to enjoy 'being here' without feeling...

the good news is, no matter what AFIP does, there will always be an informal market. Just today i found a few people offering "blue" ojo de bifes on Florida....

this one says it all.... :)

i agree with city girl, sounds to me like funds were sent, but not "liquidated" yet by central bank. i once had a USD wire sent from canada here to BA and it took me three months to have to drop in local account. and that was from my personal account outside to my personal account here. anyway...
