1. I do not have a smart phone. The USB cable with the GPS has the device on its end to plug into a cigarette lighter. What I want on the end of the cable is an electrical plug so I can plug it in the apartment as I now do not have a car but could use the device for walking etc either in BA...

While in Chile I purchased a GPS at the airport. Perhaps had I had the time to go to Santiago I could have purchased it for a lower price. Also the one I purchased had no maps installed. Someone in Talca helped me with that installation. It created a new friendship. I need a cord to attach...

I have been to BA in the past. This time around I have been living with a close friend for the last 3 months. I agree I am not a young guy as you can see in the picture. Today, switching lines to another subte -- several large but older men perhaps in their 50s or more were in front of me. I...

9.84 9.88 to me crossing 10 is inevitable very soon.. it is not a horse race here at all. Governing like Chavez but great he is no longer in the picture now is great too. Three months ago I arrived for my third time to this beautiful country. The official was at 4.5 and the other was at...

Bradly It is nice of you to give advice... but it seems more off the cuff advice as compared to really down to earth advice. You say why don't you try this .. when in actuality you have no real clue but want another posting onto your page of pages here on baexpats is how it all seems to me...

why charge money when perhaps you could learn another style of cooking from other people.. are we as expats supposed to charge others for the talents we bring to the area? duh! I Hope Not too! how about an evening of French balanced with an evening of Thai? How does that strike you?

A year ago I was at the US Embassy for getting additional pages for my Passport as I had run out of them due to heavy traveling. I asked about sending my US tax filings thru diplomatic pouch. It is no longer accepted at all. Hope that helps you. As others have mentioned file etax with turbo...

These driving laws from what I understand are only about one year old.

I would definitely agree to the above posting yet you need to think about costs too. Manuel tiendas will bring you close to Retiro Station. to me this really means you will need to take a bus to get to your final destination. Unless the person above knows Manuel's routing and if indeed that...

The car I had had more dings on it than I have ever seen. They made the usual check when I was given the car -- the paper was full of marks. When I returned it the guy looked at the car with a once around but did not see anything strange to him. He also checked the spare tire to see if it was...

when I look at http://www.preciodolarblue.com.ar/ it shows 9.84 -- 9.88 therefore I am wondering where you find the figure 9.98 -- a few cents here and there is not important to me but I like to see the source you are using for your data. thank you walter

I just came back from a trip to Chile - I drove a few thousand kilometers while I was there. I am writing this post for others who might be going to that country. I went mainly to visit vineyards. Many are closed to the public due to never starting tastings or tours. The one thing people...

why bet on a sure thing? you all know it will happen. When - is the secret perhaps but think of all the people who suffer each day as a result of the devaluation of their own currency? Certainly not you expat at all. You talk about it but perhaps might laugh it off.. Who are the ones who...

I appreciate the suggestions Tonight, I am in Talca, Chile.. Please provide specific suggestions where you think I should spend my time and perhaps also where I should hang my head too.. I am in a da hotels.com location this evening. nice room but perhaps the vineyards offer better services...

www.0800-vino.com a wine store in almagro - on the 19th -- world malbec day celebration tasting there says is 90 pesos. I have never been to that store but saw notice of this event elsewhere.

at what time does this begin and what is the entrance cost? thank you.

Are there people in this group who are familiar with this wine region? If so, do you know of accommodations in this area too which you might suggest as enjoyable ones which you have also experienced? I am trying to figure out a driving route. I will pick up a car at the airport - Thought I...
