    Tourist Apartments On Airbnb?

    yes Paypal is the most comon way to get paid by AirBnB, but I would think that most if not all people renting through there are keeping the money in Dollars, I know I do, not sure how this would work if you had a AR Bank linked Paypal account, but mine is link to a US bank account were I...

    Xoom.com Limits/maximums

    One more thing I forgot to add, is you should always look for Xoom coupon codes, as I have never paid the fees by using ones I was able to find through googling "Xoom coupon codes" even when using a credit card, just don't use a chase CC as they seem to be processing Xoom as cash advance lately.

    Lower-Cost Alternatives to BA?

    having been to a lot of the places mentioned, I would think Cuenca is the best choice I have heard so far, I have been there a couple of times, and while been Ecuadors third city it is the nicest in my opinion, also it is not that far from GYE for hooking up to international flights, which can...

    Leaving to Europe with pesos

    Just so everyone is clear I was talking Dollar/Peso rates, Euro rates would be 30% or so higher. I wish you the best of luck, as I suspect you will need it.

    Leaving to Europe with pesos

    The problem is that you will not be sure of that until you get to Madrid, as what worked for one person two months ago very may not work for you today.

    Urgent need to change Pesos to USD from L.A. USA

    I think you are confused, I have never recommended anyone in LA or anywhere for that matter. I was able to buy Pesos because I went to someone that was selling Pesos unlike the place that you emailed in LA. At this time for a number of reasons I won't be sharing the exact place I used, mainly...

    Ghana Court Rules Libertad Detention Legal - CFK Fumes

    My understanding is the Bonds in question were issued under, and governed by New York Law not Argentine Law, and in so doing that the court has found that Argentina ceded its sovereign immunity. This is quite common for 2nd, and 3rd World countries to issue Bonds under either New York, or...

    How do you sell US dollars in Buenos Aires

    Sell them to a Cueva for around 6.00 per Dollar. It isn't that hard to find one just walk up Florida st. and go in and out of the galleries and you will come across one soon enough. Also I think there are a few threads on here if you search that deal with selling dollars.
