I would like to second Nikad's view that the use of the term Argie is negative. I am British and I can confirm that it has negative undertones and should be avoided. I personally dislike the term. I would recommend advertising to do some language exchanges then both parties can work on their...

I can have a go at this. A semipiso is when there are just two flats on a floor. You would call your flat a semipiso if it was one of them. A PH is more difficult to explain as I believe it covers a wider range. Basically it is not a flat. It could be an older style design where there is a...

Hia I did enjoy Fred's post and I do agree with it. If you do not have additional funds it will be difficult to survive on a TELF income. All the hopefuls that were on my TELF course here two years ago have now gone home, half of them did not even do any teaching at all. This is just being...

I have been in Argentina for a while. Its great if you have some cash, but with no money it could become a nightmare. Work is hard to find and you don't get paid for ages. If you are not feeling strong and have been having a bad time for awhile I would say it would be best to go back to the UK...
