    Milei’s quest to defuse Argentina’s currency control bomb

    You can get your money out but it's through buying and selling bonds so I think you get something like the MEP rate. If your profits aren't great then it may not be worth it so you may decide to keep them in the country until such are time as it's advantageous to take them out.

    Does anyone else feel there might be a peso collapse this year?

    Greeks work some of the longest hours in Europe, although most of that is spent smoking and drinking coffee... I've worked in Greece for a time for a Greek company and culturally the Greeks are quite similar to Argentines.

    Does anyone else feel there might be a peso collapse this year?

    Far too difficult for me to understand but it does seem like there is a bit of a bubble from blanqueo + carry trade, when traders want to get their money back in USD will result in pressure on the peso. When this happens who knows?

    Question re: entry to Buenos Aires with 1 way ticket from US

    It’s up to the desk agent to check at your point of departure. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't, if they do check and you don’t have a return ticket they won’t let you check in. They don’t check at migraciones once you arrive.

    Us britishers have practiced this for decades on the Costa del Sol. Why eat tapas, paella and a plethora of other andalusian delights when you can have a full english, and egg and chips?

    Accessing Medical Care

    Alemán is very good for paediatric stuff in my experience. Italiano too. Both have “plans” which is private health insurance which covers you for everything if you have the top level. They don’t ask for any DNI in my experience you can do it as a foreigner on a passport. At present I’m...

    Disappointed with Food in Argentina

    Think it’s probably a lot better than it was in terms of variety. When I arrived in 2010 it was basically parrillas or pizza. Or at least that’s how I remember it!
