    St. Patricks Day-Going to the parade?

    also i kind of suspected it would be mostly argentineans! On another note i've met several people here who think scotland and ireland are the same country if not a least joined together, which might exlain the band!

    Airlines from Europe

    Air France is okay. We had a bad experience with misinformation and our complaints on board about our TV’s not working were completely ignored. If you fly out a night though you get a beautiful view of Paris!

    Cell Phone Credit

    It's gone until you top up again. for example if you still have 1.20 pesos left at the end of the month it will show zero balance but then when you top up again by say 15 pesos then your balance will be 16.20. but credit goes really fast here so normally thats not a problem.

    A New Yorker With A Few Questions

    Don’t walk around looking like your rich. In Palermo especially there are so many people to choose from who are wandering around with there whole jewelry box on or their iphone sitting on the table. They’ll get robbed a lot quicker!

    being a girl on the subway

    that’s a terrible thing to have happen to you so soon after arriving. My advice for right or wrong would have been to push him away quite forcibly while looking incredibly angry. I find men here to be quite chivalrous on public transport, always offering you a free seat before they take it and...

    Hola, hows life in BA?

    I would say overestimate your budget greatly. If you based your budget on the info that’s on the internet generally then your not going to have half as much as you will need. In this city the prices of things vary greatly depending where you are. Different situations that you may not have...

    USA entry process world's worst

    There wasn't any probem with basic procedures that we all go through at any airport in the world these days.
