    Is that functioning similar to the domestic insurance or are you talking about a travel insurance (emergency only)?

    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    I have deleted most of your quote due to character limits on posting. 1) The devaluation of the dollar absolutely has an impact on the value to Argentinian pesos. The relative strength of different economies is representative in the relative differences in the exchange rate over the last year...

    Chorizo opinions

    soy protein isolates is likely just fat free milk powder which is added as a binder and typical in many sausages. There is nothing wrong with nitrites. They will add to typical flavours and also depending on process of preparation required to prevent botulism risks. Especially when they can be...

    Is it possible to get medical insurance without a DNI?

    OSDE is great. If you get it through an employer plan then I don't think preexisting conditions matter, but if you get it off the street I think you do have to go through a medical. I think the only different between the 2XX plan and the higher plans, is primarily the number of units of plastic...

    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    Try and see if there is a local shop that imports coffee and roasts it themselves. I don't live in BA, but there is a local place that has good Brazilian and Colombian beans, and they roast it here, I think it is in the 36-41k per kg and they will grind it if you like to whatever fineness...

    Where can I buy beans?

    Everything I see online suggests making hummus from dry beans results in a much better product than using canned chick peas/garbanzos

    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    When Milei won in August I think the peso spiked up to 700-800 range on the Blue Market, and then when he actually one it spiked up to 1100. Captains of industry and many of the economic consultants highlighted what would be required for dollarization of the economy prior to the electrions...

    Where can I buy beans?

    I typically use the red colorado beans here for chili from cans. Friends make the black porotos Venezuelan style. I love them.

    Immunizations needed for Argentina?

    I don't think you need anything special. But its always good to stay updated, ie tetanus booster every 10 years, etc.

    Authenticator apps

    I haven't had issues in the past. It probably uses GMT so regardless of time zone on your phone its always the same. If anything, just set your phone to automatic update. Ente is another Authenticator, that is open source and syncs between different platforms, Web, Android, iPhone, etc.

    Why Patagonia’s wildfires are almost impossible to stop

    Even the California fires required support from some additional Canadian water bombers. Hopefully Argentina and Chile invest in the required equipment for the future. If North America has been any indication, the forest fires will continue to grow and become increasingly difficult to contain in...

    Why Patagonia’s wildfires are almost impossible to stop

    I think it also has to do with lack of infrastructure, equipment to fight (water planes), very dry environment, winds etc. In many countries rural fire services are made up of volunteers or reserves of volunteers. However, for clarity, I am not suggesting that they are not deserving of higher...

    Any recent information on opening bank accounts without DNI?

    I don't understand. Are you selling things locally, or overseas? If its overseas, then once you transfer your money to a local USD account, you can transfer USD to other people just as you would pesos with an Alias or CBU. It is considered MEP Dollars. But you can also go to the bank and...

    Argentina welcomes Chinese vehicles

    It seems like the tariff to import was 35%. so Instead of paying 35% on all, they will include all the expenses and then just pay tax on the "profit" at 0-20% depending on price (last year they reduced taxes on autos to help reduce the price).

    Argentina welcomes Chinese vehicles

    Interesting. Only in the title did it mention the $16k limit price but not in the body of communication link. I wonder if it is just transfer pricing between subsidiaries, and because of whatever the tariffs were it worked out better this way?
