I knooow, I'm going to be in Buenos Aires for the Winter Olympics and in Toronto for the World Cup!! :( It's all back-asswards!! Anyway, yes, I will try to take on the task of finding a bar willing to commit to showing the hockey games, at least the Canadian ones, since there does seem to be...

I definitely miss snow sometimes! Well, it's like this heat: it's nice for a while, then you get sick of it and want to go on vacation.

Thoughtful post, and I think you hit the nail on the head re: the Italian character vs the Brazilian character! And I fully agree that it's about the attitude of the individual -- I could complain all I want about the garbage in the streets and the corruption in the government, but we are all...

Yeah , Coto had some on sale for like 80 pesos. prolly gone now

No need to get so defensive -- I don't really mean it as an attack, after all, I do choose to live here and there are many things I love about Argentinean culture - but that's not what this thread is about. I was in fact born here (in Bahia Blanca); I grew up in Canada but my parents are...

Negativity is part of the Argentinean character. The sort of sad, defeatist attitude that characterizes Tango music... I often hear complaints like "En este país, los tramitas son imposibles! Es así!" Ugh, how I hate that phrase, "es así."' so defeatist. I always ask, COMPARED TO WHAT...

We have to convince some bar owner with a satellite dish that if they show the hockey games every Canadian in Gran Buenos Aires will come and drink every beer in the joint

Yeah, I'm watching Kristina Groves! I'm Canadian also and so am primarily interested in the hockey -- and figure skating, of course. I'm going to try to watch it online but that requires a pretty good connection -- and even though I SUPPOSEDLY have high-speed internet, I've never been able...

try mercado libre

Don't know about the school, just wanted to say *I LOVE MONTREAL* from a fellow Canadian ;)

Hey boys and girls, I'm a 29 year old female, born in Bahia Blanca, Argentina. My family immigrated to Canada when I was about 5 and I grew up in Ottawa and Toronto. After graduating from university, I decided to travel to Argentina on my own to reconnect with my roots... well, that was 3...

I missed this one, hopefully you'll do it again! Wherever and Antares are both good spots.

I've sent packages to Canada through Correo Argentino and it was quite reasonable... about 60 pesos for a 3 kilo package, I think. Got to Toronto in about 10 days.

Hello, kids! :) I'm an Argentinean-born Canadian who's been back and forth between Toronto and Buenos Aires for the last 3 years, working (here) freelance in commercial film. I'm pretty open-minded about the area, but it's got to have wi-fi and good transit... (close to subway, bus lines.)...

I know it's hot out there.... but does anyone know where I could watch any Winter Olympic coverage in BA? Some bar with satellite, perhaps, that will show it, instead of another obscure 3rd-tier futbal match?? - j.
