Thanks! All I saw was Danica margarina.. although there was one that said Repostera on it, though it didn't seem to be any different than the others. We'll try it out! Is that the right one?

Hi all, I'm looking for shortening for baking, but haven't seen it. Any idea where I can find some, or what it's called here? Thanks!

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know who/what is behind the nightly 10:30 fireworks show in Recoleta? I have an amazing view of it from my apt., and it shakes the windows, it's so close! Just wondering what it's all about....???

Wow, I´m flattered. :) Glad I could be of some help!

First, I think you will find that nobody on here is committing violent crimes and asking for advice of how to get out of the consequences. Secondly, most "permatourist" expats DO try to comply with the "rules" (that word can only be used loosely here), but are often still the ones who the...

Are you an event planner who is relocating to BA? I'm still putting together an on-screen portfolio (I only have a hard copy, which has yet to be sent to me from the States), but will let you know as soon as I do. When will you be here?

Hi, I am a graphic designer, and your post is intriguing. Can you tell me more? Thanks!

I´ll be there! And I´m bringing the whole gang: the two roomies, plus 4 more! (so... 7 total) Not sure what side dishes we´ll be bringing... but we will be coming with something, plus drinks! And don´t worry about that cranberry sauce getting eaten, I can definitely help with that :D. Can´t wait!

The real estate agent's story has been slowly changing, saying that the people (Argentine, supposedly, renting a place in dollars?!?!) came here for an operation, and the father is too sick to move. I have no idea why they would rent a place for only one month if they knew the treatment would be...

So how come the current owner can't call the cops on the people there who are living in his apt. without paying??

So my roomies and I signed a reserva for an apt. a couple of weeks ago, and paid a holding fee. We're all set to move in on December 1st: we've given our notice at our current apt., which we desperately need to get out of. I just received an email from the rental agency that basically says the...

Well, I know this thread has now gone from the CUIL to the CUIT to a working visa to the apostille :) but I just thought I'd update that I did just get my CUIT!! Yes, I got it on a tourist visa. That's the benefit of living within the Constitución AFIP office's jurisdiction, I guess! That office...

Teaching English is somewhat complicated on the en blanco/en negro level... most institutes will not go through the trouble of getting you a work visa—this would require you both to sign a contract, and it's a lot of paperwork, etc. BUT they do want to be able to pay you legally. To pay you...

I had a great time, as usual! Thanks!

Oooh so late but I just realized I didn't RSVP yet! I'll be there with my roommate! :) and this time we'll come in time for these delicious burgers!

If you search for "language schools in buenos aires" or "english schools in buenos aires" you will find a list of schools. You really won't be able to set up anything before you get here though—it's really important to interview in person here, and they probably won't take you too seriously if...

I would like to find a good course and/or group or tutor, as well! Help, please...?

Thank you both, that is all very helpful. I'm currently living in a three-bedroom with 2 (soon to be 3) other people, for US$900/month ($1150 each). In my two months here, I've realized I can live off of about US$1000/month ($3800), including paying my student loans at home. That's why I figure...

syngirl: I'm 2 years out of school, but have about 4 years of experience, as I started doing design professionally as soon as I had enough schooling to do so. I am still young though (in age, 24, and in my profession), but I do expect a higher salary than someone right out of school looking for...

Hi there! Me and my roomie will be coming, and we're excited to finally meet some other expats!
