I think you have to make a distinction between BA and Argentina in your argument. According to others Argentina is a third world country. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_World http://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/third_world_countries.htm There is a BLACK MARKET for currency..look at the...

China is also by passing the dollars with Southeast Asia and South American countries, so they don't have to use the dollar in trade. When China stops buying our debit, which is slowly occurring...the US will be screwed. Amero? Amo? Food? What will be the currency of the future?

I love the food in Columbia better than BA. It has spices and flavor. You can have both positive and negative aspects with the people here. The wine and beer is cheap, but if you make pesos the cost of living is getting harder. It is extremely difficult to transfer money into the country...

If Argentina had a government that was capable of being business friendly than maybe they could switch from dollars. I'm back in the US right now, lets just say that I have switch from hoarding monedas to gun amo. The stores in Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas can't keep amo in stock. Guns sells...

Evergreen Gal- our 400 sq mt home (in Olivos) electric is 2,500 pesos or more than half my salary as a teacher (last year it was 800 pesos). Our dog food has risen from 150 peso (last year) to 450 peso this year. We feed them meat instead of dog food, cheaper. Since we get paid in pesos living...

I like Taco Box it is the only place I have found with picante salsa and crisp tacos. Soler 5581 Palermo Hollywood and Av. Libertador 3040 Olivos.

Nice post. Before we moved here we spent the last two years reading: The Argentina Economy comprised by Julio Mojano, Open Viens of Latin America, Eduardo Galeano, and Born in Blood and Fire by John Charles Chasteen. All three books give good insight into the past and future. Our local...

Yes Napoleon. I was raised in OK and TX BBQ damn I miss the smell and meat so soft you could cut with a spoon.

Continental tends to have the better accommodations for the pets. Don't drug them. One of our dogs (1/5) are scared of noises, but we didn't drug her, because our vet told us that if the plane has bad turbulence than the dog won't be able to stable itself; therefore, she would have more hard...

here is our list given to us by our pet movers: ARGENTINA IMPORT RULES AND REQUIREMENTS Before beginning the import procedures, make sure that your vet is approved by the Government Veterinarian Authority in the country of origin. For example, if an animal is departing the United...

What is your importing country? If you come from the US you need a rabies certificate original (2 copies), health certificate (original and 2 copies) this dated within 10 days of departure date. and Annual Vaccinations. The Kennel needs to have room for the pet to stand up and move around, head...

Found St. Pauly Girl...

We just got back from Iguazu this month. Depends on tour company, Montevideo does keep your passports and if you are on a tour you can get to that side. Or you can play it safe and get the required documents, or stay on Argentina side and just fly over $100US for the helicopter ride. I would...

Lets see..who has farther to crash US (full of individual credit/debit) or Argentina (mostly individual cash)? I believe the US will evolve into an Argentina if it keeps printing money at their current rate and if China stops buying US debt. Argentina's economy is slowing down but not to the...

finally read the Herald today notice Bank Clerks Striking Today..which I would have read it before I left for the bank this morning :)

I asked a local and they didn't know why either..

Mr. Fucks how would you like your coffee?

1. May 19, 2009 2. It is an outdoor park/area near The River's Stadium. It is a great venue for outdoor concerts. We saw REM there.

We got both the letter from Illinois and the FBI. We didn't have our finger prints taken until we came here, because we had to get our criminal records here. Our visas took a week. http://baexpats.org/newcomers-forum/2935-before-you-move-imporant-documents.html
