    If You Were To Relocate, Where Would You Go? Ams Or Barna

    I love Amsterdam but have ruled out moving there as it's too cold. The wind makes it seem even colder than London, my hometown.

    Worst Stupid Bureaucracy Story?

    I wanted to name my son after my father (it was only on the list in short form) and had to write a long begging essay on a form given to me at the registro civil about why I should be allowed to do so. Actually, the worst part was, in between getting the name approved and getting the passport...

    I know this was covered before, and you have to enter once per two years, but I couldn't find anything that refers to this on the migraciones site. Does anyone have any relevant links? Thanks in advance!

    A Tango Show Which Is Not A Rip-Off?

    Try Sabor a Tango. It's not so expensive and in a lovely old theatre. Sometimes people want to see a proper glitzy tango show with lots of slits and trucos, not just authentic tango dancing in a milonga. Nothing wrong with that! https://saboratango.com.ar/

    Edesur Bill

    My Edesur bill is double this month. Has anyone else had increases? We have had so many lengthy power cuts (up to 4 days) it seems a bit cheeky to double it at this time.Thanks!

    Tango Peeps: What's Your Favorite Milonga, And Why?

    I like Milonga de los consagrados at the old Nino Bien venue, Centro Region Leonesa on Humberto Primo (old-fashioned respectability). And Milonga del Resurgimiento in Paternal (very at-home kind of place, sofas and book shelves stuffed with books and a nice bar). I've still never made it to...

    Rip-Off German Hospital

    mulderfox, I know about private hospital bills. I have had 2 kids, born at Otamendi and Trinidad Palermo, my husband had stitches at Otamendi and my eldest had an anaesthetic and procedure at Hospital Aleman. This bill was a giant rip-off compared to all of those experiences. WAY more expensive...

    Rip-Off German Hospital

    Public hospitals can be good, but for facial surgery I wouldn't take the risk. A friend of mine had a cyst removed from his back a year ago and the scar it left behind was monstrous.
