A few remarks on the style. Mini, you shouldn t state that anybody "implies", because, by definition, you can never be sure about things that are the result of your own interpretation. At least, a softening word like "may be" would make more sense, since it leaves some room for doubt. Lucas...

Sarah, looks like there is a God for you ...semi private loft for 160 USD (600 pesos) per month in San Telmo, with other girls from New York and Seattle, all included (twin size bed!). A cute lovely nest indeed ;o) http://buenosaires.es.craigslist.org/roo/1523941221.html

You mean they can t get to baexpats.org from there n daily basis? Damn, that would be a real reason to commit suicide! ;)

Delicious Torta de Limon in Cachi, a small village in the Andes west of Salta (2300m high). The whole meal was of exceptional quality, which amazed me since you can only access this village thru gravel roads. Good restaurants can be found in the most unexpected places. This is a pleasure...

1/ It all depends on how much you will spend on your education program. Without leisure activities, your minimum survival budget will be around 400 USD per month (food+accomodation) (1500 pesos). This is the average argentine wage. I spend the double for those two budgets, but i allow myself...

While i agree on most of your demonstration, Redrum, i digress on one point : There were lots of french chefs in Buenos Aires, before the crash, because, just like in New York, they could hope to make a better living than back home. Most of them lost their investment during the crash and...

Lucas, I m not a hunter so dont worry, i m not going to "shoot" anybody here or anywhere else ;) I m always open to learn, so if you convince me, i ll change my understanding of history. I never understood why people regard prostitution negatively. I watch these ladies with sympathy, for...

Untrue, Ryanair lost my brother in law somewhere between Marseilles and Marrakech a few month ago ;) http://www.carhire4airports.com/travel/European_Travel_News/Who_dares_Ryanair/ My experience with AA was way more pleasant that with Air Comet. I booked online, didnt have to pay anything...

I would like to extend the blessings to non Xtian members. So : happy Hannukah for the half million jews living in Buenos Aires. Happy Year end holidays for the large majority of atheists. Happy Aïd al mouloud for muslims. Happy Diwali for Hindus Happy Tsewa for Buddhists... I ll let...

I would like to apologise to Argentines reading this forum for the arrogance of some foreigners visiting your country and posting here. I, like many others, dont understand their motivation for travelling and living abroad if they can t appreciate differences and enrich themselves from...

Thanks Pericles for sharing those distant sounds from a foreign culture. What i fear with globalization is the desapearance of local cultures, which would make travelling pointless, since there would be no way to immerse yourself in different atmospheres. Already, most of the souvenirs you buy...

Here are some more reasons to despise Platini : http://momento24.com/en/2009/12/25/for-platini-the-favorite-is-brazil-unless-they-cross-with-france/

Steeve, you are such a sweet and generous person ;)

I will certainly be forced to follow David, attracted by the sweet smelling of the homemade cakes he will have prepared for that picnic. So count me in and David, put the cakes in a locked room before the party! :rolleyes:

In other words, prostitution is not illegal, trafficing of women is. I sense the usual feminist reply "but prostitution is all about human trafficing". It is not. Some women deliberatly choose to offer that service because it s easier for them (not for all women) to make a living that way...

There is tho a diffuse atmosphere of anticapitalism in Buenos Aires, even tho Portenos can show themselves extremely proud of what they own, be it goods or...women. Permanent contradiction, the previous poster was right :rolleyes:

Here is a good film about the organized invisible threat in Buenos Aires

Café Iberia is a monger s meeting place with working girls waiting for customers. He might have agressed you for being a foreign monger more than being from the United States. We had the very same experience with 2 us american friends last time we went visiting Gysell.. Neighbours were blocking...

Here is a bright idea for you, being US American, Zulu, Eskimo or Javanese : - Stop thinking that people that don t know you have sentiments for you. They couldnt care less where you are from, but they will care how you behave if you meet them, which leads to the second point - Stop...

Those pants were used by kabyl mercenaries during the french colonization of maghreb (zouaves). The large sitting area was making it easier to ride horses and the thin end to put boots on. They are called sarouel, or siroual : sirwāl (سروال) which simply means throusers in arab:cool: They...
