    Where To Sell Fashion Shoes?

    You could try http://www.renovatuvestidor.com/ The thing is, women who could appreciate your Tod's will most likely frown upon used items... you know what I mean? It is a cultural thing. Buying and selling used items has become more popular very recently (I have friends who almost started a...

    Air Conditioning Install

    It is so funny how we keep buying a/c units and then we can't use them because power goes out all the time.

    Need A Doctor In Palermo

    Sorry to hear you were not satisfied. I know it is not in Palermo and not exactly what you asked for, but maybe you can try Fundacion Favaloro? I know they have this service where they do a comprehensive check up for you in 1 day (blood work, ECG, xrays, ultrasound). Chequeo integral I think it...

    Anyone Used The Service "miami A Tu Casa" ??

    I had a new Vonage box sent to me to Ezeiza last year. After having experienced the Retirdo experience, I refused it and had someone bring it to me from the US. I am collaborationing with the contraband I guess :P. I also had to contraband (gee I love this word!) a new jacket for my son which...

    Surgery And Health Care In Buenos Aires?

    I have been to Doctores Chinsky (regular ENT appointment with someone from their team) and as far as I know, they are good (not just interested in making dollars). They have a good reputation locally and they work with my private health insurance. I would trust them. Good luck!

    Hair - Cut And Dye?

    There have been a couple recommendations for English-speaking hairstylists. You can use the search tool. I remember someone recommending Ryan from Canada (?). A haircut is $250 at Cerini (they have branches at every mall). Coloring, no idea. Anywhere from 250 to 500 I guess...

    Good Crisp Ironing Service

    Palermo is huge, so I don't know if this one will be ok for you. Lavadero Marva 4802-8281. Pereyra Lucena & Las Heras (across from Hospital Rivadavia) They have pick up and delivery. You can choose to have your shirts folded or brought to you in hangers, with or without "apresto" (starch?)...

    What Is So Great About Miami?

    You non-Argentine guys don't get it, huh? I would LOVE to go to Bariloche,Ushuaia, Iguazú, NOA... The thing is, the roads SUCK (I have lost 2 relatives in traffic accidents here). Aeroparque SUCKS. Local hotels SUCK. Distances are long. Prices are a rip-off. You keep dealing with the Argentine...

    What Is So Great About Miami?

    What is so great about Miami? If you live in Europe or the USA, not much. However, if you live in BA, it is the shortest flight to the "first world". It means getting away from the noise, the horrible/non-existent customer service, screaming porteños. It means year-round good weather...

    Private School Has Failed My Family

    Um, sergio, I think that the OP meant to say that one of the parents is Argentine and the other one is Anglo. No matter what, I think he/she can seek advice anywhere?

    Private School Has Failed My Family

    I agree a bit with everyone. Sorry to go a bit off topic, but now that you mention it, syngirl, no child should be in school 8 hours.

    Ha ha! Nasty calzas... The football comment: spot on. I don't think it is THAT terrible though. I believe it sucks for us parents, but not for them.

    Good Place For Teenagers?

    Hmmm... I don't know about anorexia and small towns... I come from one, and off the top of my head I can remember 3 bulimic classmates/acquaintances (2 had to be hospitalized for treatment) back in our senior year of high school, a still-anorexic, never treated 41-year old friend (very similar...

    Good Place For Teenagers?

    I had the same fears when I moved back here... Body obsession is horrible in Arg and most people don't realize it. It has gotten worse with Instagram and social networks I believe. So, like Nikad said, nothing has changed. But if your daughter has been raised by sensible, critical people and...
