Nicoenarg - I have a connection that works for Movistar - this is what he had to say: If you bought a simcard that has 20 pesos credit on it, it should come with the following 1. 1 number that you can choose to talk for free 2. 1 number to sms for free 3. 20 sms's per month for 6 months 4...

Citygirl - thanks for the reply. I kind of thought that would be the answer but just wanted to doublecheck. :( Very frustrating! I do understand that the government is allowed to have a certain amount of control over what citizens do with their money in order to protect the economy but to not...

maybe we should all start hanging around EZE waiting for the tourists to arrive and offer to trade currencies with them?

I just saw the post about not being able to withdraw money outside of Argentina (im praying that it doesnt relate to credit cards as well) but it made me think of some other questions that i had. 1. If you go to the bank with a valid plane ticket and your passport (so therefore with proof...

Thanks for all the info! The money really isnt going to be that much but its that im going to be paid for some work through PayPal and im trying to figure out what my best options are in order to take the money out. Would be good to have a US bank account from a savings point of view.

I would like to open a US bank account. I am a non resident and I have a few questions about this. Any help would be much appreciated! 1. What documents do I need in order to do this? As far as I know it is possible but you do need to open the account in person. (I will be travelling to the...

Im cleaning out our closets and would like to donate our clothes somewhere. Anywhere know a place in Palermo (we dont have a car so i would prefer to be able to walk over there). We are near the childrens hospital. Do they accept donations?

I have recently started working with a US based company. I am NOT a US citizen. I will be getting paid through PayPal. I would like to pay tax here as I am a permanent resident (married to an Argie) - have been here 7 years and might be here forever. How do i pay this tax here? I know i need to...

Like everyone else said - use your passport and do not speak Spanish. I was once called over going through customs - I had been in South Africa for 3 months and was super excited to see my husband on the other side of the door - I started rambling on in English and the guy got nervous and told...

Anyone know when the tickets are going to be sold and where i can get them? I am most interested in the tickets for the game between South Africa and Argentina being played in Mendoza I believe.

im really not trying to be antagonistic and i apologize if i offend anyone but i am really curious as to why people with no work visa (and often no spanish!) think they can arrive in argentina and find a job. i am not talking about people who come here for a year and who are happy to teach...

There are many threads about this topic. Use the search tool. As well as a recent conversation called "how many of you want to leave buenos aires". Coming here to do study abroad and coming here to live are 2 completely different experiences. Most expats that come here and stay are usually...

I sent Macri a tweet to ask him about this. Maybe if more people message him as well he might comment on the situation?

i cant recommend any specifically but if you go to google and type in - "name of city" expat group - it comes up with a whole lot of options for you to look at.

Im doing a bit of reseach and was wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what english teachers earn and what english institutes charge in major cities around latin america? (Lima, Santiago, Mexico City etc)

I am South African. I have lived 5 years in Johannesburg, 10 years in Durban and 3 years in Cape Town. I too am extremely suprised that Johannesburg was rated below other South African cities. I do think that Buenos Aires is safer than Cape Town in that you probably arent going to be raped or...

I did an online TEFL course for 1/10 of the price. Obviously the nice thing about doing the TEFL class onsite is meeting other people but if cost is a factor for you than it might be worth considering. As allcraz said it is definately a lot of work. I think the thing i dislike the most is the...

May I ask what questions you have? Im a little bit confused by your request. Are you Jewish and looking to meet other Jewish people?
