I sent you a private message with the contact details for the teacher I wanted to recommend. Suerte ;)

GEBA is a good place, from what I know. Someone recommended GEBA to me in winter, when I wanted to find a decent indoors swimming pool, and I remember hearing they had a pretty good fencing club. If you don't mind sharing your thoughts after going there on Monday, I'd appreciate it - one of my...

I'd like to send you a teacher's contact details, but you have the Private Messaging option turned off. If you want to, you can activate it from the Control Panel tab - just go to User CP in the Forum bar and then to Edit Options.

As to the gay tango thing, maybe you'd like to check this: http://www.festivaltangoqueer.com.ar/ The festival is in November, but I guess you'll be here and could have a go. If you want more info on gay milongas, have a look at this link: http://www.buenosairesmilongas.com/ Yes, the list is...

Try contacting Nina on this forum - she's Swedish-American, so your English request would be no problem. From what I know, she also does house calls and she's excellent with all things hair - from coloring to haircuts to highlights, you name it. Suerte ;)

I've just read the comments, drôle, drôle, drôle :) "Adieu Paul, ton successeur n’est pas encornet!" - ROFL. Quite nice that some comments are way better than the cartoon itself. And yes, just curious: why the caramelo virtual? Do you know many people with a virtual sweet tooth? ;)

Well, that suggestion is rather good, if you come from the US. You can practice "r" by observing yourself (quite attentively) while pronouncing "tt"s and "dd"s, anything from "little" to "prattle" to "Seattle" ;) When I was younger I used to teach Spanish at college and a few of the English lit...

Well, if you want recent films, here are some released in 2010: Carancho - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1542852/ Dos hermanos - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1576382/ (I just love Graciela Borges) El plan B - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1408972/ (I think they're still showing it at MALBA) Rati...

I'm having some friends over and the menu is complete except for the foie gras. Any suggestions where I might find some of the good stuff in BA? At, let's say, reasonable prices? I'm not asking for an unrealistic bargain, but I'd rather not pay for it what may be an entire monthly pay in some...

Yeap, it does. However, Banelco does not charge me a 15.9 pesos fee. I can't remember exactly how much it was - tried it one time, as I got confused once and went to the Banelco ATM inside CitiBank -, but it was at least double. So I stick with Citi ATMs and their 15.9 pesos :) Oh, could we...

I second Liam. They're quite ok, and mind you, I'm saying that after having had the pleasure of going to Colonia on a nice stormy day, after waiting hours in a row for boarding as the Colonia harbor was closed. All in all, weather not being their fault, the staff was very accommodating. Not sure...

I'm only using Citi and the max amount it allows me to withdraw at a time is 4.000 pesos. A few years ago, when the ATM thing was crazy in Buenos Aires, I did ask my bank about a daily limit, but it's way above the 1000 dollars per transaction that Citi allows me now (and no, that limit hasn't...

And in the highest room of the castle's tallest tower, she slept peacefully for a hundred years, surrounded bythe undeniable safety of the spikiest, thorniest, most poisonous forest ever. And when the prince arrived and gave her the true love's kiss, she whispered to him in a soft, trembling...

A few Communist jokes I grew up with (and seem to remember) ;) What’s colder than cold water? Hot water. When leaving for Moscow, a Romanian astronaut writes a note to his mother: “I’m off to the Moon. Be back in a week”. When he returns, he finds a note from his mother: “I’m going to buy...

Have you tried the Diccionario de la Real Academia? www.rae.es There are many online apps based on RAE and available on different websites, but rae.es works just fine, so I didn't look up other options. As far as I know, this is the most reliable resource available online. It points to the...

Oh, well, I wasn't around to remember, but I'm not likely to forget ;) It's just basic history: you get attacked, fight back, win some and then ponder on the losses. G'mar Chatima Tova!

Guys (neutral appellative), Yom Kippur starts in a few hours. Give it a break (mostly from laughter, I presume) :)) There's already been a Yom Kippur War, Israel's not going to be that unoriginal. So stop the countdown to doom day and restart it in a couple of days. Or start planning a...

Oh, well, I should have guessed ;) Résigne-toi, mon coeur; dors ton sommeil de brute. (...) Avalanche, veux-tu m'emporter dans ta chute? I stopped growing for Baudelaire in my teens, just before I fell in love with Verlaine's mélancolie des soleils couchants :)

Oh, dear, been there, done that, even though I'm not sure I'd call it "la maniere forte", considering I'm weak as hell in the morning, at least intellectually speaking :D I know the photo you're talking about, has it already been a year?? I remember some very dreary debates about the image...

Hi/Hola/Bonsoir Not to repeat previous posts, but... I'm not sure about the roots, but quite interested in discussing life stories, politics or art. If you want to get together sometime, it'd be great. @HenryNisental Are you sure about 10AM? I'd love to come, but I'm a bit nocturnal and that...
