va2ba you can't be serious! check out the east coast of the USA ... pretty much every major city will be under water if antarctica melts. then be sure to look at Europe as well. Goodbye, london, belgium, netherlands, denmark, etc. Sure, landlocked Belarus will be safe but for most of the rest of...

Great news if you don't want to wait for the online card. No line right now at the BA Design Shopping mall right by the Hard Rock Cafe in Recoleta. Very helpful people working there too! Just got mine and it works!

Hey! Can someone also tell me what is the deal with SUBE? My card broke in half like a month ago before all this and I need a new one. If we don't get it by a certain date we aren't eligible for the subsidy? or can we be eligible whenever we get the card? thanks for helping.

There is a phone repair store in palermo on Bonpland near the Honduras intersection, on the side where BellAria is located. It says something about Cell phones in the window. They fixed my blackberry in a day and seem really trustworthy. I paid about 90 pesos

I buy Serenissima (sp?) in the box. I guess I will try the bags though that never made much sense to me to put milk in a bag! Thanks

1) what is up with the UGLY platform neon birkenstock-type shoes that hit the street this week in BA? I see these hideous sandals at least 15 times per block. Also don't get me started on the camel-toe exercise shoes. 2) Whyyy is the milk so gross in Argentina? I just want to smell a glass of...

pelotudo is a stronger version of boludo in the negative sense of the word. not sure of the origin ... but in my mind I compare boludo to the US word 'bitch' which girls sometimes now use endearingly (but can still be an insult) ... I think it just evolved from an insult/negative word to...

whyyy would people wait 2 hours in line for a SUBE card when the subsidy rule doesn't go into effect until Feb 10th?!? People sure do love their lines here.

My favorite restaurant in El Calafate was Pura Vida (amazing lamb stew... cazuela de cordero). You also have to check out the nature preserve in El Calafate called Laguna Nimes (or something like that). There are flamingos!

I just came back from an awesome trip to El Calafate. I highly recommend staying at the Linda Vista apart hotel. It is run by a sweet family that will help you plan your days, transportation, dinners, and give any other advice you may need. Highly recommend Hielo y Aventura...

Definitely interested! Have Kindle to make it easier.

Having trouble finding a gym within a few blocks of this intersection. God forbid I actually have to walk far to my gym ;) thanks in advance!

I've never seen Vibram Five Fingers in BA (and if they were you would be better off buying them in the US to save about $100 I'd imagine). I brought down a pair with me. I don't use them though, I use a pair of Nike racing flats (Zoom Streak model) that get me less funny looks. They are still...

Yes, the prices I quoted were one way. There is also a very convenient 10peso/person (20 round trip) bus that runs between Puerto Iguazu and the park.

I recommend avoiding refugios! Love the concept, but i got over 300 bites all over my body from the bedbugs at Los Cuernos. The staff denied there was a problem as well. I had to leave early from Torres del Paine because of this. In addition, the refugios are also about $100US/person a night...

Just went to Torres del Paine this week. A lot is still closed but it does not smell like smoke or anything and is still worth visiting. The parts that are open currently are Refugios Las Torres, Cuernos, Chileno, and the trails leading to those and the famous Torres peaks. Also the entire...

I was there a couple weeks ago and I believe the price from airport to hotel in Puerto Iguazu was 120 pesos and 100 pesos to the park from the town. I also ate at a pleasant restaurant called La Rueda in the town, decent fish and good service.

I brought about 30 of my own paintings from Italy by detaching the canvas from the frame (staple remover) and rolling them up, paint side out. I packed them in my checked luggage. You will have to stretch them again when you arrive to your destination. if your paintings can't be rolled (ie they...

Scarface - I am talking about Citi's non-Banelco/link ATM's. I'm sorry that it doesn't work for your card.
