Bajo-cero2 -- if you are living in a house that may make sense, except that there hasn't been need for heat nor A/C for the majority of the last month (unless you have A/C running constantly which may be the case if you have an office in your home). It may be cheaper to update your A/Cs to the...

I think post this SOS on the main page, or look for the BA expats group on facebook, you may find some more Indian expats on there. My attempt to help: 1-- re social security contributions -- this is dependent on whether there are bilateral agreements between countries -- ie between Spain and...

Yeah but the civil wedding here is a rather ho-hum reading of your identity numbers, profession, address, same for your fiance, then the reading of the civil code that pertains to the legalities of the marriage. It is really not romantic at all, it may not exactly be what they have in mind! And...

One a penny, two a penny. I would think they can`t be all that difficult, with the exception of maybe are the crosses marzipan? I have never seen them here, and from the American responses I realise they must be a UK & Commonwealth thing. I had thought to make some this year but now it`s...

Macri went to Wharton, though I can`t tell you if it was just a diploma programme or a full degree. Prat Gay I think went to Yale, but he also worked in the USA and was with JP Morgan (or Morgan Stanley, not sure when he was there) for years. Anyway the fact of the matter is Macri`s government...

One of my best friends was born in what was then Zaire, they moved first to Belgium in 1981 and then came to Canada in 1982. They maintain a house in Canada but her father now spends much of the year in Kinshasa, her mother in Dar, her brother runs shoe factories in Mombasa as well and the Congo...

Well the infrastructure stuff unfortunately isn`t a whine -- the system was already bad previous to the Ks and they didn`t invest so it really will take time to recover it. That said moving can help -- generally if you live near a commissaria your power tends not to go out. Or if you move to...

The work visa is dependent on getting a company to hire you, and they have to do just enough paperwork for the process that if there is a local candidate they most likely will just take them instead. Argentina is easy to enter without resolving your immigration status. Working here legally on...

You need a PAPELERA rather than libreria -- these are places that stock all sorts of cardboard, take out meal boxes, boxes for packing, anything to do with wrapping things up. Google and see if you can find one near you. (the "Papelera Palermo" is not the type you want -- it is expensive...

Well yes, and I see he also claims he already has an apartment sorted, so he can't possibly as naive as he claims if he has already invested in real estate here.

Ok so you want opinions from newcomers, not long termers apparently. Well I'm not a newcomer, but if you tell any newcomers how much money you have and what you should be doing at the weekend, I think the answer is almost surely going to be: hookers & blow. If you want to socialize with the...

If you can find the dried ciervo (deer) it is delicious...

Hey guess what, Argentines that are NOT unionized and work in the O&G or Mining industries are getting a ZERO increase on their PESOS income. So guess what, there's STILL people worse off than you and your dollars. No one, not a single person I know working in O&G or Mining who isn't in a union...

If you've been together 6 years don't worry about it. If that is why they called you for an interview you will have no problems answering any questions that they may ask to determine the "authenticity" of the marriage. Don't be concerned, 6 years together, you will be fine. When we applied for...

Ok, the questions you asked are a bit different than the original ones you posted (from your original statement I understood you wanted to learn how to code apps, now if I understand you correctly you are actually not looking to learn coding but want to understand more sort of "how does it all...

Welcome to the age of dinosaurs. I'm there with you. I always say I will do course on Coursera etc and then end up with too much work. The worst is after 6 months of doing print design I had to go in and do some work on a client's wordpress site, including a newsletter that I had to code and...

This has to be the most hilarious Valentine's Day troll.

Yagmour is supposed to have sizes beyond M. A friend of mine runs AnyBodyArgentina -- an NGO that, amongst other things, is fighting for proper sizing in Argentina. Their facebook page may list some of the other places that they are happy with https://www.facebook.com/anybodyargentina

These look great, unfortunately the 20cm is sold out. I wonder how often they restock. I will probably go by there and check it out. Thanks!
