    Gym Terminology

    So, after yet another strange look on the face of my fellow gym members yesterday over something I said, I have decided that maybe it would be best (and helpful to others) to ask for input. While I could just Google the terms for standard Spanish (What I did in the past) it appears that there...

    It's Too Expensive Here!

    Has anyone here visited/considered Sicily? We visited there in 2014 and lately I have been thinking about the cost of living compared to here.

    Argentina Residency And My Frustration With The "system"

    I was required to get an FBI check because they consider it as a kind of "federal police'. I also submitted a police report form here in Argentina that I got at the local station in Belgrano before I was told I had to get one from my country of origin for the reasons stated before.

    Argentina Residency And My Frustration With The "system"

    If it makes you feel better it seems like everyone gets someone bad and 10 nice people at migraciones but that one person seems to derail things.

    Uber Is Gaining Momentum

    Forgive my ignorance...I loved Uber in the US last time I visited and I would love to start taking it here. But how is it working on a practical level now with all the problems with the government ban and such? For example, I heard you can used credit cards to pay for it...is that true? Also...
