These "lobby door" muggings are really happening more regularly these days, especially in expat-popular barios like Palermo. Although many expats know Spanish and keep a low profile, these criminals still can see that you`re foreigner. But there are also expats that run around like clowns...

good point! does CK or Bodou or Moreno and the funky K-bunch here ever answer questions coming from the (independent) press? are there official press conferences where they get fried for their doings and deciscions? it doesn`t seem to exist here. CK and the K`s just don`t answer questions...

what do you think about that? LOL http://www.lanacion.com.ar/1448903-boudou-llevo-la-campana-clarin-miente-hasta-el-calafate rockstar vice-president! who can take these K`s seriously, really?

hey, just don`t go to Plaza de Mayo or to any other of those BIG destinations (like train stations) where they hand out the SUBE card. Many Argies just love to stand in lines, they don`t question this or go over their options...well, i don`t get it. I got mine last week, one day before the...

YanquiGallego, i TOTALLY agree with you. it`s really annoying. However, as cheap as this soap opera production is, it seems to work with 54% of the voters. that`s why she keeps on doing that "poor old widow" performance. without the deceased "El" she probably wouldn`t have had such a landslide...

Argentinians, again, are just seeing the quick buck here. Probably they already feel that in a year or so something bad will happen and want to collect as much money as possible. tourists are an easy target. they think tourists are going to pay it anyway ("prices are going up everywhere, so...

i`d take Berlin. Lived there for six years. Wonderful city - and not so "German" as you might think. very open, very international. great nightlife, cheap fresh food, cool hang outs. however, some german phrases to get by in the beginning is recommendable. But go there when spring arrives, in...

i usually could take out as much as i wanted (e.g. 2x1000pesos at the same atm was no problem)...BUT something changed. since yesterday i`m only allowed to withdraw 700pesos per day. i tried other atm`s but with the same result. however, in general i`m not a big "withdrawer" of money - i only...

welcome! but i don`t really get it...you`re here for 2 months but the first thing you wanna do is get in touch with the same people (expats) again!? why did you get away from home in the first place? dude, get out there, meet locals, travel the country, learn some words and phrases, get involved...

Hi all! Can anyone recommend me an Estancia that offers a nice "Dia de Campo" including some horseback riding and asado in the Provincia de Buenos Aires? It shouldn`t be too far out - no more than 1-1 1/2hs driving. Could you also tell me what you paid for that and if you took a transportation...

yeah, that was also a great addition to the discussion... calm down. good night.

what a terible discussion. i`m not a u.s. citizen, and I`m not an argentinian - sure, things can be better here, but, hey, live with it! you`re lucky anyway, you`re a foreigner that earns decent money, right? i think that you can´t really understand how things/politics/people work, think etc...

Hey all! I`m looking for an Asador for hire for a birthday party that's in charge of the parilla for that night. Do you know anyone? Have you hired one and can recommend him? If so, what did he charge you?? Thanks for any advice or recommendation!!! Wishing you all a great week! cheers, Robin

Hi expats and porteños out there! I`m doing some research on some topics for a Dutch TV-program called “Metropolis” (http://www.metropolistv.nl/en/), I used to work for them when I was living in Berlin. It's a very fresh, interesting and award-winning short-documentary series that takes you...

hi Golfers out there! does anyone know if it's possible to play a round of golf once in a while at the Campo de Golf in Palermo??? i don't have any membership, nor do i have any golf clubs n' stuff. but i used to play a lot a couple of years ago (with handicap 10). so, is it possible to play...

Hey all! count me in! I also live in Belgrano, but would go anywhere to play some football. You can also contact me on [email protected]. best, robin

Hey there! Any filmmakers out there? I need some good quality MiniDV Tapes to record onto HDV. I`m out of my Panasonic AY-DVM63PQ tapes and can't seem to find them here. Do you know a reliable store that sells them here? Or any other quality tape? I don't really think of going to Fravega and...

hey carlos! sorry, dude...i don't have msn installed on my computer... let's stay in touch via mail or via facebook?

Hey! I watch a lot of games - mostly Bayern ;-) - via this: http://www.myp2p.eu/index.php?part=home There is a "how-to" guide...or you just download e.g. the "Sopcast"-Player (goolge it) to watch the games listed on the page. If you have a good internet connection, then you should get a decent...

hey guys! just bumped into your discussion...I also would love to play some football here. i used to play once a week in berlin, but since i moved here...nada. I'm really missing this. Thought they are football crazy here (and canchas are everywhere) but that must have been stereotypical...
