    getting US drivers license translated? and legalized

    I read her blog and I am just a bit confused by what you wrote. If I understood correctly her blog, Sol got a new license (as if she were a new, first time licensed driver).

    My Argentinian wife really dislikes the US. Typical of Argentinians?

    Let's get some facts straight: - Nobody here rushed to "defend even US healthcare" blindly, nor did anyone give an excuse about the cost of health care in the US. - People simply pointed out the facts that were untrue. Leave your own emotions behind, read the comments carefully one more time...

    Do you fear a crash similar to 2001?

    Serious question for someone who knows the answer, please, in reference to the mention of Dr + lawyer and its use in Argentina: - does it mean that someone has a post-graduate/post university, doctoral level degree, a PhD in Law? - does it mean that the individual holds a post-graduate/post...

    Argentina vs. EU

    I have lived and worked in the US, Spain and Argentina. I also have a medical background, so my perspective will be from this angle. You as a (potential) patient or consumer of medical services should be aware that when we look at the quality of medical services we look at complex factors that...

    Do you fear a crash similar to 2001?

    I shared the results of the survey, not my opinion. You appear to be opinionated about the topic. Do you have any data to share that are not contaminated by your cognitive bias? Any stats about the validity of the indicator used in the survey which can back up your opinion?

    Me and My GF moving to BA for 6 months end of October 2018

    Marriage, foreigners visiting.

    Not only is the marriage certificate issued in Denmark valid in Canada, but if you ever need to use it in the EU/EEA it is accepted without additional validation based on the EU/EEA regulation on reciprocity and mutual recognition pertaining to vital documents. Having it in English and issued by...

    Spain vs Argentina - worth relocating?

    Yes and it would not be easy. But you would be doing it as an investment into the future and well-being of your kids. I have lived in Both ES and ARG. As someone mentioned it before, SP outperforms ARG on any health and psycho-social indicator of well-being. You would see this easily reflected...

    Atm Fees

    @Serafina This is what I understood: what is needed are copies of your currently valid registration card, your residence permit (* I did not see it stated specifically, but I think this means EU residence permit for non-EU/third-nation citizens with EU residence permit) or (* it says 'or' not...

    Racism In Ba?!??

    We'd be derailing this thread, so this is not the venue, but yes, gladly, and can compare it/contrast it with Cape Town if you are interested (there are lots of positive similarities in the legal provisions, as well as some shortcomings that in Israel can be attributed to ethnocentrism while in...
