    I Must Be Doing Something Wrong...

    indeed.com is a good one for jobs here. I think they collate a load of jobs from different sites but you can set up multiple searches for the types of roles you are looking for and the responses are pretty accurate. They can also email you jobs by type. I get emails from them with the specific...

    Azimo

    Hmmm, this all sounds insanely good. Do you have the name of the place you collected the money from in Corrientes? I'm on the verge of trying out some smaller payments.

    Calling Toll-Free Number in Arg from Overseas

    I called a toll free number from Skype yesterday. Just entered the country as Argentina (from the list, rather than country code) and then either entered the 0800 number complete or started with 800 (can't remember which). It worked for me.

    Xoom At 8.06 Today

    Ha ha - yeah, I just thought it was funny that from a starting point of claiming a 7 dollar exchange in October the poster moved seamlessly to Euros to back up the argument. I've been getting over 7pounds since October, but I think that may be besides the point.

    I'm baffled. Are we talking about dollars or euros?

    Tourista - 3 Meses Vs 90 Dias

    I just whipped my passport out. I've got a mixture of 90 days and 3 month stamps dating back since 2005. I think it just depends which stamp they're using. Anyway, pretty certain it's 90 days officially and you'll have to pay the fine. I'd say it's better to do it right before security rather...

    My Half Hour Residency Trip

    Yep, you're absolutely right. You have to go 100% prepared. I knew which docs to bring as I have been trying to get this done for years now (rule changes/missing docs etc. had held me up on a couple of occasions). They're very quick to turn you down. I was expecting a loooong day even with...

    My Half Hour Residency Trip

    Well I thought I would share this, as I'm still in shock and it might encourage some of you who are dreading the trip (as I was). I went to get my residencia precaria today and the whole thing literally took half an hour. From my 10am appointment to walking out of migraciones with the paperwork...

    What Do You Do Here?

    I write advertising and marketing communications for PayPal in Latin America... and apologise to people in Argentina for not being able to use the service properly. Ahhhh, the joy.

    Six Months After: Ba Vs. Madrid

    Yeah, thanks for the post - it's very well thought out. Glad things are working out for you on balance and I hope it continues that way. Madrid's an interesting city. I kinda love it but I've never lived there for any significant amount of time. You've got access to some good art...

    Here you go Phil: http://cavecomedyradio.com/nyccrimereport I almost feel embarrassed posting that link. It's proof of a sick sense of humour.

    The New York City Crime Report. That podcast is seriously funny (and verging upon the inappropriate).

    Why Does Everyone Here Seem To Hate Buenos Aires So Much?

    I'm not sure I've said one bad thing about BA, have I? :huh: ...apart from maybe something about the pizza once many moons ago. The pizza kinda sucks ;) (I know, I know, I won't start that again)
