    Flying with a baby, any advice?

    I am completely against giving medicine, but just one spoon of cough syrup (the one for babies, of course) does wonders.

    Is Argentina on the verge of another crisis?

    True that some first world people could never live here. Every time I go back, I realize I took the right decision to move here... Maybe there is a crisis coming, (they have been predicting that since 2001), maybe not. The country sure has a lot of issues (politically and economically), but if...

    Yes, we have no bananas...and other former imports too

    Not just on books I am afraid. All kinds of factories in argentina have stopped production or will have to stop in the future because lack of materials... Permissions for import are given randomly, without any rules or explanation one gets permission to enter a few containers while another one...

    Opening a US bank account as a non resident

    It is possible to open a bank account in the US with a foreign passport. You must have an official document that has your address (abroad) on it. The only difficulty is that, in order to have a credit card, you must have a social security number, or (if you decide to get a credit card that is...

    Entering as a resident but leaving after residency expires?

    My son left the country 6 months after his visa and DNI expired. He had to pay the 300 peso fine at the airport. The only question the agent had was, why is only his visa expired, and not the rest of the family's?

    New DNI is not required for perm residents

    Just to complicate things, when we renewed our visa and DNI, we were told that my daughter has to get a new DNI before she turns 17. We on the contrary, don't need a new one. When a 16 year old Argentine friend traveled with us on buquebus she needed a new DNI to leave the country...

    Thanks that was a real good tip. I ordered it, and they just called me to say they aren't having spelt flour now and are not likely to get any in the future. So tips are still welcome!!

    Clothing Problems

    If possible, buy all the clothes you need in the US, not because of the size (don't know about that) but just because it is cheaper in the US, and the quality is a lot better in the US.
