    The Ideal Life in Baires

    you can hardly blame the restaurant for being closed down by AFIP. Why not call in advance. It is not unusual for restaurants to be closed in feb for holidays so it is always worth calling in advance. Living in Bs As you just need to adapt a bit. Its not the end of the world. Its a great city...

    Just for fun - if you wanted to blow a lot of cash on a big night out in BsAs...

    Have you tried the Faena Hotel in Puerto Madero. Their tango show is pretty pricey as is the restaurnat/bar. It is where welathy Russians choose to hang out. However I must add just because something is pricey doesn't necessarily mean it is good. It depends a lot on what floats your boat! I have...

    Insecurity Here is Real

    I agree with Celia. It is very hard to make statements like 'there is less unemploment' when such a huge propertion of the economy is in negro and therefore impossible to quantify. Speaking to people around me it is more of a struggle now than it was 3 or 4 years ago. Ok compared to the crisis...

    Argentine citizenship for foreigners?

    Also my husband is foreign as well. Can he apply at the same time as me as the childs father or once I have citizenship does he get the right to apply based on him being my husband?

    Argentine citizenship for foreigners?

    I am the mother of an Argentine child and am looking to apply for either permanent residency or citizenship. Is there a difference in the documents that I need to provide to apply for residency compared with citizenship, if so what are they, also are there any downsides to getting citizenship. I...

    argentine citizenship...

    can anyone advise me on the process for getting citizenship if you have an argentine child. I am currently getting all my paper work together for permanent residency, but if it is easier to just apply for citizenship then I would do that instead. What are the negative implications? Any help much...

    Best Cafes for Working

    I find it really sad that so many people come to this amazing city to 'experience' living in a new culture, new language, new country and then cluster together in little english speaking gangs in places like Starbucks rather than finding one of the many special and unique place that typifies the...

    Property tax in Argentina?

    Does it matter if you didn't have a DNI when you bought the property but do now? Also if you haven't paid the Bienes personales at all would you be liable for the first years (when you didn't have DNI) at the foreigner rate and then the subsequent years (when you did have the DNI) at the locals...

    Living in BA with kids... Is it possible?

    fifs2, this is something I have been worried about when looking at private schools here. Which schools do you like and what would you suggest is more of a good 'middle class' school? Do they teach the British A level/GCSE System? Thanks very much for your help. Any knowledge of prices would be...

    The Islamophobic crusade

    Darmanad, who are you writing for? For me there is so much content it is like you are compiling a dissertation or something. It may well be worth you editing yourself somewhat to give space for other people to join in an open debate rather than having to wade through mountains of content without...

    Baby group - we don't seem to have had a new thread on this for a while.

    Hi Annie. In the week is better for me too. Parque Centenario is too far away for me to get to easily so if you are happy with Plaza Armenia then that would suit me best. Should we say TUESDAY in the afternoon?

    Is BsAs that dangerous??

    That unfortunatley is a fairly common 'new' scam on the underground. I work in the tourism industry and in the last 6 months it has been a reoccuring theme. The other scam seeming to be doing the rounds is the 'bird poo' scam. Someone spray you from a distance with a whitey brown liquid and then...

    Is BsAs that dangerous??

    I think the person that told you this either hasn't been here for a while or is still thinking of how Buenos Aires was during the troubles at the beginning of the 2000's. Kidnappings at that time were common place, now they are very rare and only happen to very wealthy business men. That said...

    Where to buy furniture?

    Also try craigslist. Lots of people here are always moving on and selling there 2nd hand stuff cheap so it can be a perfect place to pick up some bargains. Otherwise Mercadolibre.com.ar has everything.
