So I will be getting married in July and just wanted to see if anyone had any good contacts here, or have a good place to rent. We are looking for a 6 month contract (ending January) with a good chance of renewing for longer towards the end of the contact. So for sure 6 months or possibly a year...

Well that really is terrible to hear. I was possibly planning to marry her in the states while she was on a tourist visa, though we would come back to Argentina for 3 months after, and then make the permanent move to the states. So from what I am hearing is that if I marry her in the states it...

This makes me feel a lot better knowing that it happened easily for you. I plan to marry this girl so everything is light, it shouldn't be an issue. But for right now we are just dating and the trip is a great excuse for her to meet my family and see if she really will be happy in the states. So...

Ya that's the horror part I'm afraid of. She will just try getting a tourist visa on her own, and then if she is denied I think we will go for the fiancé visa and just rough it out and hope for the best. She has to come back to Argentina to finish up school, so there should be no issues and she...

Thanks a lot for the help, especially since your going through the process right now it's a big help. Basically she just has to prove that she intends to come back here, which she actually has to do anyhow to finish her degree. After she finishes her degree though we will be getting married. The...

Well I am from the states, I actually meet her just visiting Argentina for a vacation. I'm still on tourist visa here etc. She is 22 has a full time steady job, and also is studying, she finishes in December. I know all this is important for getting the tourist visa on her own, but if i go...

Once married was it a lot easier to get the visa done with no run arounds? We haven't decided yet if we want to marry here or in the states, we have preference for the states though but it's no set in stone.

I am in need of some advice/help from the community. I am wanting to help my girlfriend get a tourist visa so she can come visit the states with me. My best friend is getting married and really wants us both to be there for the wedding at the start of September. She doesn't have a passport yet...

Do they only play on Wednesday? This sounds very fun to me, regardless of the days I would love to go. Send me some info I am always in caballito.

So I just wanted to get others inputs on one area I'm thinking of moving to. It's between barrio San cristobal and balvanera basically close to calle Belgrano and entre rios. I don't really know buenos aires to much, just passing through to the Patagonia. How safe is this going to be? We are two...

Hi everyone!!! So we are two guys 25 and 26 years old looking to come to buenos aires in a week or two. We are very clean and respectful, we dont smoke, drink or do any drugs. We have been friends for a long time and travel together normally, we don't mind sharing a room at all and prefer it to...

So me and my friend decided to go visit argentina, we both have been to the patagonia but never the northern parts. We have 6 months to play around, but we plan to travel to a lot of different countries during that time, but at least 3 months in argentina. We are not very wealthy, but looking...

I won't be sending anything worth a lot. Its just to a few people I met in the Patagonia when I was there last year. They always asked me about maple syrup, and "real" peanut butter as they say haha. SO I was planning to just send maybe 15-20 dollars of basic american foods that can't easily be...

SO I am just wondering a cheaper way to send mail (small packages). I have a friend who wants a few things, but I dont want to spend like 50 bucks to send her a few food items that you cant get down there..... So how do you all send cheaply? Or is it even possible?

I lived all over the Patagonia for 2 years, its a different experience thats for sure. Time to go depends what you want to do, others have already chimed in on this enough. It all depends what you want to do. Places that I have been to are 1. Bariloche, in both winter and summer. I Don't ski...

When I got to argentina my only knowledge of the language was basic stuff like saying hi, and maybe my name and where I was from. If your at this level too, maybe my advice can help. I think full immersion is really the best. If your around lots of native english speakers, your going to speak...

So if I use xoom to transfer from my US account to my friends ARG account, they arent going to put some tax on it will they? I find this might be the only way to get a good rate while I am in the south.

I have seen that, but they never actually have had dollars in them (when I tried...) but thats cool that the option exists.

oh wow I didnt know you could access dollars :D thats actually quite helpful to know. There are a few argentine friends who would be happy to swap me the blue if i could get the dollars.

rather ask here than start a new thread too. So I was looking at doing the xoom thing, but it seems you have to pick up at a local western union type store. This causes a problem because I won't be in the norther part of Argentina, just the south (chubut) and they have no buildings down there...
