I just imagined the reaction of my Argentinian family when i would get out some canned meat out of the kitchen cupboard..... Thats probably worse than making fire in the parrilla with Nafta or claiming the Falklands are British .... Seriously, why not put the meat in the freezer?

Myself (on tourist visa, no DNI) I spent a week in December in Pinamar. As I could not download the app, there is an internet page you can get a permiso (www.argentina.gob.ar/verano). I think playing around you can finally enter some kind of foreign passport number. However, I felt a bit...

I would say it is a 95%+ chance that this is a scam.

I think the answer to this question is partly personality related, but probably much more to where someone is in life, what means you have. If you are still young and ambitious, if you have young kids, there is not much that holds you back here. If i were 65, then I wouldn’t mind staying here...

This thread is about a USD - USD transaction. (this is why i did not grasp the point about the official rate above as it has nothing to do with this) Based on the input from Sojourner (and this is also how I interprete it), you can indeed go to an Arg bank and have the USD in cash afterwards...

Why does this matter? You deposit USD in the US and here you get USD again. Or am I missing something?

Living in San Telmo is in many ways quite the opposite to living in Puerto Madero. However, I enjoy the proximity of PM very much and go there quite often for a walk, supermercado, enjoy the parks etc. I find the area around Faena particularly nice

What is the best way here to watch football? Especially i am interested in * local football league * English Premier League * Copa Libertadores * UEFA Champions League (If as a bonus it also includes games of the German and Spanish leagues, even better) ideally it would be internet based. Any...

Its thin pizza. The food is - for a pub - indeed quite good.

As a Gibraltar regular myself, i found this article really well written. And an article about Gibraltar without mentioning Mike would have been a joke. Even better he is the ‘main character’ of the article The only thing i noticed was that the bar is somehow in a decline. 2014 / 15 Friday...

Totally agree Agree on this one too. If you look into this from an owner’s perspective, the return p.a. is only 1-2% maximum. And this doesnt even cover the risk that you will end with a squatter in your property. So under these circumstances it is in almost all cases better to rent

Duhalde was ridiculed when he said in August there wouldnt be an elections in 2021. https://www.infobae.com/politica/2020/08/25/eduardo-duhalde-es-ridiculo-que-piensen-que-va-a-haber-elecciones-el-ano-proximo/ If there are no elections in 2021, who can guarantee then that there will be in...

The one in san telmo closed for good (already another bar in it)

Last summer i read Caro’s Power Broker. Which then lead me to buy the first two volumes of LBJ. If it is only half as good .... i havent found the time yet, but i am very much looking forward to read it. An incredible author it seems.

Just for my understanding: do you consider Boudou, Sala, de Vido etc (not to mention CFK) as political prisoners?

If something sums up this year nicely, everything that is wrong with this country, this is it. You really don't know whether to cry, to laugh or simply admire their shamelessness.

The one in my neighbourhood (San Telmo; Peru y Mexico) closed down four / five months ago.

I think this tax is totally idealogically driven. I think neither Maximo nor Heller believe that there will be much taxes paid in the end. But obviously it is a good "Robin Hood" story to tell the voters. The most absurd point about the tax hasn't even been mentioned here: the tax applies -...

Just out of curiosity (I am not American, so this doesn't affect me at all): how would you justify this payment from an American taxpayer perspective? Why would it help the US in any way, especially if the recipients of the subsidies are living abroad? And further: if it is a good thing: why...

Hi dsp27, first of all thank you very much for your contributions on this topic. Very much appreciated. I might have missed the point somewhere, but according to the new rules: 1) can I (living here as a tourist in Argentina, with Arg wife and Arg kids) go on vacation with my family to Brazil...
