My husband was telling me that deliveries are showing up everyday at work from Aliexpress. i wonder how long its going to last....We should all probably order while we still can!

To anyone who (like me) doesn't love cooking I found this site that does home cooked meals. Haven't tried them yet but it looks good and the price is awesome!! https://www.facebook.com/TeLlenoElFreezercom

on a side note: I believe that the amount of dollars you are allowed to bring in is 10,000. not sure where you heard 500? Argentina doesn't mind people bringing them IN, its trying to get them OUT that's the issue! Also if you do end up doing something freelance there are several threads about...

Type in the words "teach english" in the search forum and you should get quite a lot of reponses. this is something that i wrote to someone else a little while ago. still applies. If you are working through an institute you will be getting paid around 40-60 pesos an hour. Please remember that...

Thanks! A friend of mine also told me that Palermo zoo was not the happiest experience for her so we decided not to go and will take the trip to Temaiken soon!

I am pretty sure that the answer is no but just wanted to double check! Does anyone know if its possible to buy tickets to the Palermo zoo online?

i would second Club de Amigos. Also i recently saw that the Buenos Aires Zoo has a summer camp program.

Oh how disappointing. No blue pesos unfortunately. Thanks!

Does anyone know if the 20% surcharge applies to HOTELS booked on Despegar?? Going to Brazil for a week and trying to figure out which website is the best to book through!

Wow!! Mjohnstone - thats fantastic info!! Thanks so much! :D

So I went to the Green Film Festival last night and it has inspired me to try and find ways to reduce the amount of trash we produce in our apt. Does anyone know about recycling options here?? Or other ways that I can be more green. It seems to be a lot easier in first world countries where...

Heres a website that rents strollers. 240 pesos a week it looks like. http://www.bebebaweb.com/gearlist.php#.UgP-tZLUma8

Or March. Feb is pretty dead here too!

Kathleen, not to be mean but you have no work experience, no work visa, an intermediate level of Spanish (at best) and the economy here isn't great. If you did come you would probably be teaching English at around 50 pesos an hour. You can take a look on Craigslist but I have never heard of a...

As far i understand i think that airlines enforce this rule because if someone arrives in a country and is not let in (because the country believes that they wont leave or for whatever reason really) they are responsible for flying that person back to where they came from. I am quite sure that...

syngirl - i went on argenprop and put in 'menor precio' and that was the lowest price i saw. i agree 5000 pesos is ridiculously cheap for a 4 bedroom. maybe it was one of those apts that they list as palermo but is really in another neighbourhood.

- UBA is a bureaucratic nightmare. Not sure if it is free for people that are not from Mercosur? I think as someone from the states you would have to get a student visa and pay a small fee. Could be wrong. - 500 pesos in Palermo seems insanely cheap. A 4 bedroom apt in Palermo rents for...

My brother and his wife came for a visit recently and they rented a studio apt for 10 through AirBnb. It was on Malabia and Paraguay about 4 blocks from the D line (station Scalabrini Ortiz). They really liked it and I thought it was really nice. (Nice building, modern, good location). I have...

I met my husband when i was 21 in another country and then moved here to be with him. We married at 23 with very little thought as to what we were doing to be honest and certainly without taking any of the abovementioned into consideration. Thankfully 7 years later we are still together and now...

I have met some of my closest friends since living here. Ok. They are other expats but I would never have met them if we all hadnt been crazy enough to move here! Does this count? Its a positive story about living here right?!
