Bodegon de la Calle Ayacucho is between Corrientes and Lavalle. It is smaller and even cheaper and simpler than Cervantes II, but it is often packed with neighbors and people who work nearby. The food flies out of there for delivery as well, so it is generally pretty fresh, i.e., nothing left...
Jubilados and retirees are the same people. In fact, more of the older ones go out at 5p.m. than at midnight. My jubilado milonguero esposo is on his way there right now.
When I came back from a trip the other day, something in my watch got hung up when I changed the hour. I am looking for someone who can fix the mechanism without ruining it beyond repair. Does anyone know a good watch repair person? I am in el centro but location isn't all that important. I...
Ditto for us. When we came back in last week, the customs people basically ignored us. We weren't carrying anything interesting and my husband is Argentine, so we entered in full Spanish. But we hardly had a chance to say "buen dia" before they turned away and went back to chatting with each...
I found Gabriel Celano recommended as an immigration attorney in these forums. I only consulted him once because that was all that I needed, but I found him responsive and I thought his advice was very helpful. http://www.celano.com.ar/Home.html
La Coqueta's lawyer may be better than the one I consulted. But the one I asked last January told me that to maintain my residency for my DNI to remain valid, I need to be in Argentina 1 day every 2 years. The rules for tax residency are different.
Try Tisera. www.tisera.com They have several stores on Samiento near Uruguay. I bought two in a model that now looks like it is named Gizeh. We have had them around 4 years. We like them for comfort, and they are still like new although we use them for hours every day.
I don’t know why I am obsessing over this. I just couldn’t believe that a ticket from Buenos Aires to Madrid and then from Rome to Washington, DC and back to Buenos Aires could cost only $1700, if it included a 35% cut for the Argentine govt. So I looked around some more. It appears that the...
I agree. Cancel it within the 24 hours while you can and start over again. Perhaps even call Delta in the U.S. to reserve. This week I called United in the U.S, and booked a flight from EZE to Madrid, via Frankfurt on Lufthansa. A second leg is from Rome to Washington, DC. on United And the...
I just changed my status from rentista to permanent. I did the process in January and my new DNI arrived this week, on schedule. Hooray! You need to get a turn online here http://www.migraciones.gov.ar/accesibleingles/?turno_online It is at the Migraciones building down at Antardida Argentina...
Bradly is right, I didn't get mine either, even thought may of the other people in my building did. But you still owe it. If you have your account number, you can get it online, print it out and pay it.
I met the love of my life in a milonga. We are both older. He was retired and I was approaching that age. He is Argentinean and a wonderful person, but I think a critical factor is that we were both very content with our lives before we met. All those years I spent looking and hoping for a good...
