Has anybody here done that? Either at someones or offered a spare room at their place?

On Saturday my friend is arriving at EZE airport. I would like to go and pick him up, but I can't afford a return taxi. Is there some type of airport bus that goes there? Has anybody tried it and is it worth the peso pinching?

But the water used for crops contain fertilizers and pesticides. They have contaminated the entire eco system. Nothing that contains water or which has used water can technically be organic, it is all a marketing scam.

That is like the USA selling weapons to a country, then expecting them not to use them. Don't be so naive.

Yes I have heard of that! It was from a HSBC as well, stay clear of those! They never seem to work either.

That is good. I really must get one.

And why is this thread in expat life. It should be world news.

Oh dear we seem to have a classic case of American self-delusion. You seem blissfully unaware of the harm the USA does. And it is more a case of American companies moving production to a country, knowing that there is very high unemployment and appalling employment law, and abusing their power...

Interesting links. Haiti has a history of being plundered. Just look what the US and Europe did to the forests on the island.

Oh and she likes it? I have been flirting with the idea of getting a bike to get around on. How does she find the roads?

I´m at work. Thursday is developing business day.

Brilliant ROFL. Reporting at it´s very best...

It hasn´t happened to me but I know two people who got faux money from an ATM. If it happens it happens, you can´t completely avoid not withdrawing money. I imagine it is very rare though. All the time I´ve been in Argentina I have only received one fake 50. I got it from the currency exchange...

Well many USA companies already have outsourced to Haiti, keeping prices low. That is why so many people live in poverty.

That is pretty good of tha Ghanian gov, considering how little money they do have. Is there a large Ghanian community in Buenos Aires?

Apparently I look a mess, so I guess that has kept me safe. Pick pocketing happens in every city though.

jajaja yes. I seriously doubt how well the little money is being spent. I also doubt what these charities are actually doing in the country, I mean I hardly think stealing babies and stirring up trouble on the streets are the most helpful things they should be doing. The USA and the companies...

I'm sorry if it offends them but they need to see that whoever is in control of the islands, it won’t make any difference to them whatsoever. The political elite of Argentina will be the only people to benefit from them becoming Argentine and I think they are getting enough kick backs as it is...

The Recoleta ladies that leisure expats :cool:. I'll take my blue collar elsewhere...
