    Expensas rise 40% - Clarin

    Clarin is an imperialist yanqui mouthpiece that lies as much as possible. It should be nationalized and the editors should be sentenced to 20 years hard labour in Santa Cruz labour camps. Thank god the glorious Kirchners have forced the evil cable companies into adding Telesur from Caracas to...

    University Teaching

    As another over-qualified English teacher, I would have to agree with the advice here thus far. There is an incredible number of unemployed Argentine English teachers here, and the chances of getting a University job or other regular job as an ESL teacher are low to nil, especially with the...

    Just a reassurance for Visa Runners to Colonia

    Well, I guess another issue is what happens in the odd chance the police or someone else checks you passport and you have overstayed the 90 days, whether one day over or years over. I have never heard of anyone actually having this problem. The only time I was ever asked for my passport by...

    Help please... 90 day visa

    I am pretty sure from past experience and from second hand info the they will count it as 90 days if it does not say 3 months. They actually use their fingers and a paper calendar, and count the last entry day and the day you are there, they are not generous with the counting. On your given...
