    BsAs Safety

    I can't imagine one person 'met' and 'knows' all these people that have been robbed. This article seems highly exaggerated. Ok, these things happen, but not to the scale this person says. Personally, after almost 3 years living here and coming here since 2003, I only 'know' 2 people that got...

    Chase Bank in BA??

    Usually the banks here are independent branches, have nothing to do with the original banks. So probably, getting cash from the chase ATM's will be considered as from a foreign bank, not a US chase bank. It would be interesting to know if this is the case with this bank as well...

    Imports, really feeling the pinch now

    I don't think they depend on the country of origin, more on the person (company) that imports, and (most importantly) how much this person/company exports, And (not in the least) the energy the importer has to get his Import permisson (my husband is going to the ministry of economy several...

    Decent clothes for an 11 year old ?

    I would recommend to buy them online and let someone bring it for you. It will be cheaper and you will have a better quality, especially at that age when you need to wash the clothes all the time... Here the majority of the clothes are synthetic and don't give any warmth. Apart from being...

    Fashion in BA

    True, its mostly natural! they hardly ever cut it; when they do, its a big deal, something that is talked about : ”you know, X has cut off her hair!” ”reeally? how much?” ”well about 10 cm! thats a whole year of growing!” ”waw! ” The girls start growing their hair as soon as it grows... it is...

    Flight from Brussels to BA

    The best way is to look for a go and return ticket, and get the return at the cheapest return date possible (without the intention of using it). Usually you can change the return date up to one year after the initial day. We ended up never using it. That is mostly cheaper then buying a one way...

    Kissing

    We were discussing the kissing-subject the other day, my husband saying he quite likes it, why only kiss female friends? He only kisses friends. His problem is when he goes back to belgium...it is so not-done there, but automatically you feel like kissing. I find the kissing easy, no akward...

    Amazing how expensive BsArs is

    Usually they sell it in organic stores. you have spelt flour and all that can be made of it (bread, pasta, cookies,...) it is very heavy and antiallergic. Its an ”antique” type of grain, that does not bare chemicals and is hard to grow.

    So why did you move to Buenos Aires?

    Because we love it here! We used to come here for holidays, ever since 2003, several times a year. When we were here we didn't want to go home, when we were back we counted the days until we could come here again. Then we realized this was a crazy situation.... We decided to move here in...

    Count your change!!!

    Ever since I was a child and I went to the store my parents would tell me to count the change. I taught my kids the same. This has nothing to do with Argentina : it is universal. People make mistakes, on purpose or not...

    is it possible for a husband to transfer property to wife?

    If I am not mistaken, a wife and husband are considered "one" here (when it comes to real estate). If one or the other buys a property, the other is also owner. So I don't think you can "transfer" or "sell" between husband and wife. We went through something similar.
