    Giving Birth In Argentina

    Honestly the idea of finding a doctor you like in a foreign country, who will attempt to follow your birth plan, and where you'll have to pay out of pocket seems a lot harder than you probably even think it will be. If your bf has a tourist visa, I'd just have him travel to you near the birth...

    Starting Work In The Morning

    In our building they're not supposed to start work until 8am so depending on what you're having done, if he's banging at 7:10 you're going to have unhappy and probably complaining neighbors. With that, when our Portero says someone will be doing work in our apartment, I always assume it will be...

    Best Place To Buy Kitchen Appliances.

    He wants a handheld blender or an immersion blender. Unfortunately electronics are not cheap in Argentina, 500 is probably the going rate, if you find one you like search on Mercado Libre to see if you can find a better price. Otherwise just search the expat sales as your best bet to get better...

    Question About Mercorsur Overstay With Expired Passport

    You don't need a DNI to renew your passport for the US, so I can't imagine why you would be required to have one for other countries, makes no sense to me either, the two are unrelated. Don't know about renewing an passport with an expired visa though, and she would need to make sure she got...

    Peppermint Chocolate Or Flavouring

    Look in baking/party shops for extracto de menta, or if all else fails esencia de menta. Haven't looked but haven't seen much in the way of peppermint specifically.

    Washing Machine And Dryer Recommendations

    We got a Mabe washing machine almost 2 years ago, haven't had any issues with it yet. You can find dryers here but they're not that common and are expensive, you probably are better off not worrying about the same brand. It's the culture not to use them and just hang everything to dry, that's...

    Is It Time To Separate Passengers From Luggage ?

    The idea of no carry on of any type is never going to work, I'm not going to fly your airplane if I can't carry my small expensive personal electronics with me, in addition to simply flight comfort items, as well as personal items like jewelry, cash, wallet, etc. We carry on the plane with us...

    Philadelphia Cream Cheese

    I didn't go to that Coto I didn't realize how far away it was, and haven't seen it elsewhere yet. I use it in savory dips as a layer itself and as a mixture, so the flavor and texture is key and I don't really like or personally find comparable any of the local options. I am sure there's a...

    Philadelphia Cream Cheese

    Do they have philly or the generic one, I wasn't thrilled with the generic one when I tried it, wasn't quite the same and soured really fast!

    Philadelphia Cream Cheese

    Yeah for what I want it for none of the substitutions work. I already use ricotta for all my cheesecaking needs, just wondering when that next, probably held up in customs for months, shipment will be released so I can stock up! :( I'll check that Coto today with fingers crossed!

    The Kiss And Hug Greeting

    In response to your original question, no issue switching back and forth when I'm with friends from home. I do give them explanation and expectations for what to expect when we meet people here when they visit and leave it up to them what they're comfortable with. I grew up hugging and kissing...
