    Considering A 2 Year Move...some Questions.

    Have a look on this site, its all monthly prices and its an english language site. Bare in mind its probably expensive than ads you find in the local newspaper as its aimed at foreigners. Heres one in recoleta for example. http://homes.com.ar/.../?id_prop=15901

    What Is So Great About Miami?

    Well I didnt necessarily mean Torres del Paine, I meant the Andes in general which is a days driving distance for all Argentines.

    hah, you think those Tetons would interest Argentines when they have these on their doorstep.. . Perhaps build a walmart in front of the Tetons and you might encourage a few to visit.

    What Is So Great About Miami?

    Yes its 30% cheaper for Ferraris but certainly nothing else. My Arg wife auntie came back from Rome last month , she said it was horrible. Expensive and dirty. And shes italian born, and goes to Miami every year.

    What Is So Great About Miami?

    Well its year round warm temperatures help and the first language being English , although thats debatable. I held out from going for 45 years, lots of British go but it always looked like a chavfest to me, rather go to Asia personally. I only went the last two years to give me some retail...

    Driving To Iguazu? What About The Police?

    Best check out streetview to get a good idea of the roads you`d be using, not all R14 is paved by the looks of it. Unless they did something in the last year. https://www.google.c...12!8i6656?hl=en

    I`ve driven all around the North on a number of occasions,probably a good 2000 miles worth. I`ve been pulled over a couple of times at traffic checkpoints where I was giving a high level interrogation of nothing more than things like what do I like about Argentina, whos my football team, who are...

    Good Place For Teenagers?

    Think teenagers have it hard it many countries but have to say I think Television , which is the main influence to the majority , has probably gotten worse in the last 10 years here depicting women.
