Hi, My medical insurance will start on July 1st but I really would like to see a doctor about something before that. I heard Hospital Fernandez is a good public hospital to go to, but I was told by reception today that I should come back like at 5am and line up for a turno. Are there...

Hi, I'm living now on Libertador near Bullrich. The gyms I've seen in the forum (Megatlon, Well Club, Sports Club) have branches that are a good 20+ minutes walking. Anyone know of a good gym between Callao and Cerrito and Libertador and let's say Vicente Lopez? Thanks. SB

Funny. Ok. I'm not going to go too crazy. It's not a complete necesity now. Just that I'd like to have it and deposit some pesos. I will be employed very soon and then I'll get an account via the company.

Hi, I've bought calling cards to call home but they are for landlines. Using the same card with my cell is possible but too expensive. The 0822 number counts towards minutes deducted from my plan and also I get hit with a per minute fee. So, I'm looking for an intl calling card for cell...
