I have to agree with JP and not JG on this one. JG went off subject here, but in things related to travel-tourism, I have even seen discounts for locals in the USA. For instance, if you live within certain areas you can get cheaper monthly passes for the toll roads, bridges and tunnels, and...

I use an excellent local painter, actually a father and his 2 sons. They work very well, fast, are clean, and mainly: 100% honest. One son is out of work for 2 months now, and has a family to support. If you can use him, you would help a needy person too. He can do the fine work, like repairs...

This place is FULL of them. No use giving you one or two, since the range is so wide. I live in the northern suburbs and I have around 4 or 5 places nearby where they give courses on GD. First you should pick a place to live, and then span away from there. Cheers. Joe (You´re my 100th...

Thanks for the helpful tips guys, I hope I´m still in time. I´ll see you later tonite to watch the debate. Is there enough room there? I heard there was quite a crowd last time! Cheers, Joe

Whatever U do: DON´T GET A "GESTOR" They are intermediaries, who say they´ll handle all the paper-work, and red tape, but many times all they do is SLOW DOWN the process in order to get more money from U. And they even may tell you it´s all over with and done, but there may be really someting...

US expat here: Can I still register to vote? Someone PLEASE tell me if I can do it over the internet, and what website to enter!!? Thnx!!!

KatharineAnn, and all other (native) English teachers here in BA, should be able to profit from the new decision by the B.A. City Mayor Macri to add COMPULSORY ENGLISH classes at all official city schools, and at all levels. Presumably starting next March, I doubt there are sufficient unemployed...

I´ve been posting this same announcement on several related threads, and no one even comments on it. ¿Can you see me here? It´s about weekly Spanish conversation for expats and tourists, at the Euro Club, with a dedicated moderator, (sometimes myself). Every Wednesday, check out these prior...

No, not only for that. She was very nervous and a "sleep-walker" as well.She´ld wake me up and SCARE ME in the middle of the night!! I never experienced that and if I am awoken interrupting my deep sleep, then I can´t resume sleep for several hours, I simply stay up all night. Either way, I...

Hi there all, With my limited knowledge, thanks mainly to former girl-friends, the tampons were more popular around 10-20 years ago. But then they started marketing the pads mainly for younger girls, most likely "not to interfere with their virginity". Soon after, as I can only speculate...

Hi guys! Anything set up for tonite? Let me know what´s up OK? It´s best to organize by mail: mine is [email protected] No more time for now, but I know of other great things to do, between expats and locals. Cheers, Joe

The Lincoln School surely has one. http://www.lincoln.edu.ar/ My brother played there when we attended that school. But it may be open only to current students. If so, maybe you can ask to form a non-student team to participate in their league, by gathering other kids in your same condition...

Anyone else worried about Argentina´s present and future? Have any other expats ever found yourselves wishing you could give your 2 cents, straight to the Government? (anyone for that matter) Have you ever thought or said: Why don´t they just do this or that and problem solved!!?? As a...

Any politically minded expats willing to help Argentina out of its eternal crisis? I am just "tapping the market" here before I commit to anything, but I do have access to a fixed premises where we could gather and ponder the Argentine political scene with very serious intentions. The...

Hi there. fellow Newyorker Joe, here. I frequent the European Club and they have weekly tango and salsa classes. I don´t know why they don´t have jazz but I guess no one has the required skills to teach them. Maybe if you come by you can interchange some students and business with the Club...
