GPWM. They call me Che Pelotudo.....that's good right?

OR I have no idea whatsoever why you would be embarrassed to hold an Arizona Driver's License. Is it baby pink velour with a lacy edging? And the wording of your original post doesn't really give any clue about what you're upset about, except for some accusations of racism, but with nothing to...

I think it was a very poor and inappropriate attempt at humour. e2a: Yes, confirmed by the subsequent post.

What's a USD? ;) ;) ;)

I might just pop in and have a look...!

I am genuinely baffled by this! Honestly, I'm not criticizing or having a go at anyone, but this is almost AR$8000/mth!?!? I've been here for 3 years and I've never met anyone who earns more than AR$4000/mth. I've personally never had access to more than AR$2500/mth, and I live alone in a nice...

Ha, ha! I was already wondering if it might get a bit warm if I wear a Canada top over an Argentinian top....ready for a quick-change!

Having subsequently come to know the customs and immigration officials on the border in Iguazú pretty well - I can assure you that the above statement isn't quite accurate. They will charge you 50% of the value that they decide, NOT what you declare!

Yet again I can look back and smile. I've had plenty of good luck to go along with the bad! I arrived here 3 years ago, on a standard 90 day tourist visa (having already bought a house in Iguazu), with 11 x 30kg suitcases*, full of clothes, electronics, CDs/DVDs/records, books.....all my worldly...

Well helloooooo! The first thing to do is avoid all the ne'er-do-wells on this forum! Except me....I'm really nice. ;) But seriously, don't worry, there are a lot of blondes here - peroxide is the second biggest import, after pizza ingredients.* If you're unsure about walking alone...

You're talking about US$2k? Jebus! I'm the first to talk about how (relatively) expensive things have got here over the last 3 years, but I would certainly live like a king on US$2k here. I'm currently scraping by on closer to AR$2k....and surviving. Just get on the plane and come and find out...

Damn it! A thread that I can't make a sarcy quip on because I haven't got a clue what they're gibbering on about!

Sounds brilliant steve! When's the house-warming party? And, considering it's lack of neighbours, can you get in a 5k sound system, CDJs & turntables and I'll DJ? ;-)

You've misunderstood billsfan - when said in the context above 'what a joke' is not meant literally. It's more an expression of exasperation or frustration with something. And I already found a reasonable owner. I understand the history lesson, but like I said previously it's basically a...

All the furniture stores are on Belgrano between about 1000 and 3000. And if you can't find exactly what you're looking for you can probably get it made.

It's a joke isn't it?! I found a place and got a 2 year contract paying a 6mth deposit and 6mths up front, but I've been looking for something similar for my ex for over a month now and still haven't got past an agent to even be able to put a proposal to an owner. It's made me realize just how...

Nope....I'm with you Miles (well, not literally, obviously!). But I didn't grow up with my parents and have very little family, so I've always been a wanderer. I'm guessing that for most people the concept of 'home' is family based.

Bloody hell! Gizza job? I'd sell my arse for that!

I got some of the roquefort and goat's cheese - haven't tried them yet!

Tsk.....kids today! ;)
