    Teeth Cleaning? Common Here?

    Ive never seen so many women and men without teeth before they even hit 50. They really need to get educated on oral hygiene. It's not like going to the dentist is over the roof expensive or maybe I just care way too much about my teeth.

    Best Time To Fly (Us-Arg/ Arg/us)

    Airfare can get pretty expensive, do you have any advice on the best time to fly? (Websites with best deals, cheapest time to fly, should they be purchased in the US or Argentina for better price Last year, around November I remember finding airfare for $950 (roundtrip from US-Arg eze). By far...

    Public Universities

    Thanks for the feedback. I wanted to know mainly because I'll be prolonging my stay here only for education purposes. Six years is a long time to be away from my family specially since airfare is so pricey and makes it complicated to fly in and out these days.

    What Brought You To Buenos Aires?

    Never in my mind would I have thought that someday I'd be living in south America. I moved here because I married my Argentine husband. We met in Portland and then decided to get married and move here for a couple of years. It makes curious though, what brought you all here? Love for the...

    Really? So, doing six years in psychology will be a waste of time?

    Waitstaff In Bsas

    The waitstaff is the worst. It is obvious they hate their job. Makes me feel uncomfortable, besides unless I'm eating asado at a restaurant, i rather just cook at home.

    Fingerprints Done At The Us Embassy?

    This is such a hassle. Wish it was easier. I guess I'll have to do the $50 expedited service.

    What's A Seattlelite To Do..

    Tacoma is interesting. Definitely soulless. Also a great place to get your car stolen. They have good grub places though. (Dirty oscars was my fav)

    I've actually been taking advantage of those classes. I do the huerta organica. I've started my own garden and I absolutely love it and it's so rewarding. :)

    What's A Seattlelite To Do..

    Pikes place is one of the things I miss the most, or paddle boarding in greenlake. I got to work with a lot of people and I would actually say that it is very multicultural, although in comparison to nyc then yes, I can see why you would think that.

    What's A Seattlelite To Do..

    I found the article pretty accurate and that's actually the kind of person that I am. Living here now is the complete opposite to what I'm used to. Ha, maybe that's why making friends has been a challenge. When my husband would tell me to make friends, I would always reply with "I don't need to...

    What's A Seattlelite To Do..

    Yeah I think my situation has a lot to do with it. As of now, I'm a stay at home wife which is sooo different to what I'm used to. I used to be a freelance makeup artist in Seattle so I was always on the go, not to mention I made in 3 days what people here make in a whole month! Which is so mind...

    What's A Seattlelite To Do..

    I have noticed too that people are a lot warmer and genuine. I remember when I first got here i felt kinda awkward about greeting everyone with a kiss but now it just comes naturally. When I go back home to visit, greeting people with a kiss will be interesting, :) but yeah meeting warm hearted...
