Maybe they/we are scared because GMX is not here?? But honestly, I always tell new members that coffee chats are nothing like the forum - discussions might be lively but ALWAYS good natured! And most of the members who bark loudest on the forum don't even go so no need to worry! New members, men...

Can the post be moved to Expat Events so that it is in its usual place?

Steve, great, thanks very much! Then I will just wait. Soon I will have a DNI, how exciting!! :)

Hello wise friends, according to this thread it shouldn't be necessary to go to the Registro Nacional de las Personas after getting notice of residency; that the DNI shows up in the mail. However, last week I was approved for temporary residency, and at the end of the letter it says...

Rodolfo, any idea where I can rent a car for this price?? Can't find anything that cheap. Thanks!

Congrats Serafina!!

Hi all, if any Norwegians are browsing here, the Norwegian community organizes a May 17th Celebration on Sunday May 17th, in the Scandinavian Church. (The celebration here in BsAs is always on a Sunday but for once the day and the date actually coincide.) Send me a PM if you want more info! I do...

Friendly reminder that anyone can organize an event whenever they want! GMX does so much for this community, we shouldn't expect her to also cater to everyone's schedules. I am sure you would get a good turnout if you organized something on the weekend.

Thanks!! Yeah, but I don't want to bother them... Or if I did it would be something for me jeje. That's a great suggestion, especially since I go there every week!

Very true but it for someone who really wants a paper one! ^_^

Hi friends, any idea where I can get a Spanish-Korean dictionary? I checked Mercado Libre but only English-Korean. (It is for a friend who doesn't know English.) I am assuming I could get something in Barrio Coreano in Flores but I was hoping for something closer to the center of town. If you...

I am in second semester of Hebrew at the CUI and I am really liking it. Our teacher is fantastic and it all feels professional and well-run. Yes, pricey, but very good. Most classes are three hours once a week although there are twice a week options as well. The night classes start at 18:30...

Coffee chats are BIG lately!! Thank you GMX for the great work that you do organizing and hosting these events, they are a real service to the community. Gracias!

I really liked El Crítico, it came out last year and was set in Buenos Aires in recent time, probably 2013. Cute.

I just had to comment on this because after a year living on an estancia I stopped eating meat! So funny. I was not a huge meat eater before, so after a year of eating A LOT of meat, it was like my body just told me to stop. I had never really considered cutting out meat and it was not even a...

I really like dancing chacarera and other Argentine dances, so I thought it would be nice to start a thread with ideas and recommendations! Patio provinciano in San Telmo, on Balcarce and Umberto Primo. Sundays from 15:00 onwards, seems to end around 23 or 24. Really relaxed and fun. A new to...

I really loved El abrazo partido, by Daniel Burman. 2004.

So the price on AirBnB is lower than what you pay?? That does like you are being cheated... And you could technically reserve it on AirBnB for the listed price, if it is available. In my experience, the AirBnB price is always the highest (if they offer the place in various channels) because it...

Very true, BsAs is always on the top ten, in this list from last year it was number 8 but I have seen it even higher. However, the good thing with AirBnB is that they do have reviews, and in my experience owners have been quite honest, for instance "Yes, you can hear the noise from the street...

The blue dollar has been standing still for months now, and has been trending decidely downwards for the last three months. Inflation, however, is still well over 30% and not stopping anytime soon. So for those living on dollars, they probably feel it too.
