Thanks KatharineAnn! That is very helpful, and hopefully other people will find it of use, too. Yeah, I was thinking of asking for 4000, and seeing where that gets me. I am a professional, and I do have experience, etc., so I think that would be reasonable. We'll see! Thanks!

What about for hair straighteners? my boyfriend is moving down here in Dec. and I'm thinking of having him bring me my US one instead of buying a new one (although I hardly use it), but I'm also worried about blowing out the straightener. ?? Thanks!

Thanks everyone! Have you been to Pinamar? Know what it's like (on New Years) (well, or anytime for that matter... I've never been!)? I'm assuming the parties last until sunrise (or later...) on New Years just like the rest of the time... So as long as we're prepared for a loooong night, the...

I guess it depends on what you're used to in the States. I spent the last 6 years in Southern California (San Diego), so BsAs is definitely a breath of fresh air (no pun intended) in the expenses department. But I realize that the cost of living greatly fluctuates throughout the States. Plus...

Jaja I know... it's not what I'm used to. Then again, neither is the cost of living, so I figure it'll all balance out. I'm just wondering what I should say. I don't even have a starting point...

I'm currently looking for a job, and most of them ask for my salary requirements. I'm a graphic designer, and so if anyone has any specific information as to what I can expect (jr. designer, midlevel, sr., etc) that would be amazing. But I think what would help more, is some sort of general...

Hi all! I know it seems pretty far away still, but New Year's will be upon us sooner than we know! I was wondering if anyone had any good suggestions for Argentine New Year's? I've heard that BsAs itself is kinda dead (so many people on holiday, quizas?), but that there are some great places in...

awww... no more wednesday night? that's okay, sure i can catch another event! :)

Wow, thanks so much. It is seriously so helpful! So what do independent contractors or the self-employed do here to get a work visa? Or can you get one ONLY if you have a contract with a company? It seems like there would have to be some way to get a work visa and be self-employed, as it seems...

okay, 19h on wednesday it is! and yes, an address would be great...

Hi everyone! Thanks so much for all the help! Turns out I misunderstood... I will be getting my CUIT, and then working as an independent contractor for them. It's a good thing anyway, as I'm a graphic designer and should be legal for my freelance work. In any case, they're still sticking to...

what about in san telmo? any ideas??

Casa de Queso on a weekday sounds great! Wednesday at 20:30 sounds great!

Thank you so much, that really helps. I'm not really sure how serious my employer is about it, to be honest. I already started (paid) training this week, and they just brought it up today. I asked if the CUIL was the same as a work visa, and they said no... So I don't really see the point of me...

Yes, well Uruguay every 6 months, and do an in-country extension every 6 months. So some form of extension/renewal every three. For example, go to the immigration office and extend the visa in 3 months from now, then to Uruguay 3 months after that, then 3 months later go to the immigration...

Hi everyone, I've been in BsAs for only 2 weeks, I'm here on a tourist visa, and was planning on extending (where do I do that again?) every six months and then hopping over to Uruguay every six months (alternating between the two), to stay legal. This will work, right? Okay, but that's not my...

yep the weekend sounds good to me! does anyone want to host? or do people know of a good place?

Hey long-term ladies! Sounds like there are a fair number of us here, all looking for some sort of long-term friends. I'm 24, and I just moved here a couple weeks ago from California, but I'll be here for at least a year, probably more like 3. Maybe we should organize some sort of wine night or...

That sounds great! I'd definitely come.
