    Fantastic! Thanks

    Any Google Fi Users?

    Google fi replaces a current cell provider. You’ll need to research more (do a search on reddit) in order to reap the full benefits of the service. If your phone is not designed for google fi but is compatible, you only get to use TMobile as your provider and don’t get to benefit from the...

    Any Google Fi Users?

    Yeah, if you get a google-fi-ready phone, you’re able to switch between 3 carriers in the US (TMobile, Sprint, and US Mobile-?). They have less rural coverage in the US which may be an issue for me. My biggest concern though is international (primarily Argentina) coverage. My billed...

    Any Google Fi Users?

    Yup. I’ll be trying this out in February. I’d love to use my iPhone but I’ve heard the switching between cellular and wifi calling was not seamless and that I’d be stick with TMobile nationwide if I didn’t use a “made for google-fi” phone. I thought about using the Pixel 3, but I’ll have to try...

    Any Google Fi Users?

    I’m contemplating subscribing to Google Fi for the next 6 weeks in addition to my normal plan as a test run to see how good this plan is in Argentina. Is anyone here currently using this service? If so, how do you like it?

    Why aren't grocery store cashiers more friendly?

    Awe, not a knock on New Garden. Although Zentra has stolen my expat heart recently, New Garden people are friendly, too. For me, it’s the places that have ridiculous long lines that tend to have the unfriendly people. I, like you, prefer the smaller businesses (except when it comes to New...

    Argentina Me Too Movement

    Nothing particularly shocking was actually posted, but some reactions to the original post (see any of the above) appear to have a shocked reaction to the original posted linked content and its repercussions. Look man, I'm not in favor of condemning the innocent, but I'm also not in favor of...

    Argentina Me Too Movement

    Anyone who has been sexually violated, regardless of their gender, has the fear of not being believed or taken seriously. They also have raised the series of questions frequently seen in comments on articles, forums (like this one), etc., to themselves prior to everyone feeling like they have to...

    Guests coming to BA for three days...top things to do?

    For rustic Patagonian flavors, we go to El Federal. The ambiance is great for a small group (max 6). We’ve also had a large group there, but that changes the ambiance for everyone (not just the people at your table).

    Looking for Work

    Facebook is the preferred method for many things in BA. I’d recommend pulling it up and doing a search for BA Expat...you’ll find other options for job postings or posting your search there. Good luck.

    “Número de dirección”

    Yup, take subte D to the Tribunales stop...you’ll see a vendor on the platform in one of the shops there most mornings (I don’t remember the hours) who you can make a request and will have it ready in a couple of days. You can’t miss the shop...there are several of those signs viewable from the...

    Does anyone in the BsAs area have Juul pods?

    Not for the Juul pods but for the tobacco alternatives to smoking. Maybe also try one of the now many “green” shops.

    Does anyone in the BsAs area have Juul pods?

    Try the “Jevi” kioskos around town

    Boca River Superclassico Violent incidents

    I’m glad they’re postponing the game. Respect for another human life is obviously not more important than the game for the hincheros, so yeah, postpone the game. Hitting someone in the face with a brick over a game (a sport I love to watch, btw) is ridiculous. Keep postponing it until they get...
