I don't hate it here. I just don't love it here either. We came with a plan to stay 2-3 years and in the end it will probably be 3 1/2 before we go. The thing that bothers me the most strangely enough is that I really feel so very far from everything and everyone that I do love. So, we are...

Did you tell that to Lift Van? I wouldn't be surprised if they drop the price as they are used to working with international companies who don't care so much to bargain hunt. So, they are probably working with a margin that allows them to negotiate with individuals. It can't hurt to try. It's...

Yes, there is.

They do look really yummy! As for the oven, one word OvenThermometer....

Just cut & style? Or do you do color? Straightening?

I'll bump this! I helped build houses in DC with HforH. The families who were getting the houses were there helping too. It was fun & rewarding! What more could you ask for? :) I probably won't be there that week. But... Go help if you can!

Seems this is the string instrument thread: I'm looking for a cavaquinho. anyone have one they want to get rid of, are heading to brazil, etc. please get in touch. :D

I think he means the cut that is labeled "roast beef" is low end, & it is! Don't get that cut. I'm tempted to do a roast beef now... with roast veggies... me hungry. :)

All that adds up! When you are looking at prices for two year rentals, none of those things are listed nor is the cost of buying furniture & a fridge! I'm not sure tourists are really get that screwed. Sure, you pay a premium, but don't underestimate the total costs of a two year rental.

I think at this point Lisbon is less expensive. I can't see the prices for each thing listed so I can't compare. Send me the list with prices for Lisbon, I'll do the list for you for BA.

English, French, Portuguese-Portuguese, Spanish & Italian.

It wasn't available for the first two years we were in BA. It's only (re)appeared a few months ago.

My very first week I arrived I noticed this. I was looking at the prices and I turned to my husband and asked if I was reading the labels correctly . An Argentine lady next to me turned and looked at me and said "Welcome to Argentina" with a smile. Then we chatted for a little bit. Never go to...

If he's two years old, he wont' be much bigger than that. He'll get wider but no bigger. lol. He looks like he was mixed with a smaller dog like a cocker spaniel or something else furry. :)

No problems with taking mate back, but I'd stick to the commercially packaged varieties and not some wrapped in a plastic bag. ;)

Really cute anvil collection! I collect hotel bells, like you, I don't pay a lot for them. But they are very expensive in San Telmo. I'll keep my eye out for mini anvils. & maybe you could see if you cant' get some freebie hotel bells! ;) What were we talking about?

No comment... :eek:

You'll need them to trade for food & other goods. :rolleyes:

Nope. You'll just have to do like the "mexican househusbands" do. I can teach you to make bread, paper & glass beads to add to your skill set. :)

Great! And now we have another option for pre-made tortillas! Yeah! Email them there: [email protected] Yeah!
