    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    For the time being, I think that exchanging a few more dollars and making a CDI deposit in pesos, will at least give you a bit of extra money ( do not think long term, more short to mid term ). October 2025 we have mid term elections, so expect inflation and dollar sit still ( or as still as...

    December is a month of higher HOA fees historically as they include the annual salary bonus for your encargado / portero. Another reason why they have gone up in the last year is related to utilities with no subsidies. On top of this, encargados union has been given a retroactive salary raise...

    22% of the UBA medical students are foreigners

    Not everything and everybody are the same to be honest. I have had many classmates and colleagues from other countries.

    How much of a problem is the language barrier in your daily life as an expat?

    Afaik Japanese would not accept any other language other than their own. They refuse to learn and speak English and they truly believe that you should learn their language to communicate with them and not the other way around, as opposed to Chinese and Taiwanese for example.

    How much of a problem is the language barrier in your daily life as an expat?

    I can relate: DH is American and we have been together for 20 years. He is definitely not cut for languages, it took him a decent amount of time to speak and understand Spanish.

    Vaccination is meant to protect large groups of population, not for your own benefit. Societies do not survive illness based on individual actions but collective efforts.
