    Cost of living in Argentina for foreigners improving?

    No hay de que, Rich. Your memory is fine. Since moving Villa General Arias in 2010, I often mentioned that I shopped in Bahía Blanca on a regular basis, almost always when I had to go to the bank. My last grocery run to Wal-mart was just before the c-19 lockdowns of 2020. Since then, online...

    Landed in BA 3 days ago. I'm lost

    I have been thinking about this recently and I am very happy that "the same situation as London (specifically) doesn't exist here" but I don't thank god.

    Navigating New Migrations Law

    I have't seen any posts that indicate that tourists are now required by migraciones to make a Declaracion Jurada upon entry. It would be interesting to know what migraciones might ask anyone who is entering the country for the first time to declare. Perhaps that they swear not to overstay their...

    Western Union money transfer

    To clarify, I did provide Banco Santander Rio a benefits letter from the SSA when I opened the account in 2012. I was then using XOOM to make the transfers. I started making the transfers by Western Union in 2019 and Banco Santander has never asked about them. If the bank can see the same...
