    Agreed for a first timer, it's better to use Airbnb.

    Airbnb payments in USD

    Why does there need to be legislation? If after your booking is up with Airbnb and you want to rent directly, rent directly. If you value the extra protection that Airbnb provides, use Airbnb. They don't want you finding a place on the platform then asking the person to accept cash, as they...

    Airbnb payments in USD

    If you do it outside of their platform they aren't going to make money. You are paying a premium to have AirBnb as a middleman if something goes wrong. If you want to make a side deal with the owner after your AirBnb booking runs out, how is AirBnB going to know? Do whatever you're...

    I was an illegal human being in Argentina for a time. Bajo liked to refer to me as irregular though.

    Got into a scuffle with three chorros at Starbucks- will they seek revenge?

    The US certainly does have it's issues and problems. For immigrants to go for a few years and make some quick cash it's not so bad. There are many I knew of years ago making around $15 - 20 per hour cash working construction jobs. Many times, they rent out an apartment or small house together...

    Bitcoin will now be taxed

    Lol idiots, they will shot themselves in the foot for web3 too. Lots of interesting projects in web3 run by Argentines, all whom have left the country, most are in Spain at the moment. Then when this next wave of web3 wealth washes through the world and Argentina is left out, people will be...

    It's a low cost of living for you, the rich expat. It's not low cost of living for people working entry level jobs, it's expensive.

    Got into a scuffle with three chorros at Starbucks- will they seek revenge?

    How's the crime in Montevideo vs Buenos Aires? I read that things were getting more dangerous there. A few young men selling some items that fell off the truck and also looking for other opportunities that arise, like shiny new iPhones, sounds like pretty standard Argentina, even in Palermo Chico.

    US needs more immigrants to work entry level jobs. Open it up!

    Poor immigrants are usually more capable. As antipodean described the ones that leave their slums in Venezuela to come to Argentina are more motivated, ambitious, and capable than many that don't. You'll also find Venezuelan Uber drivers and waiters who have university degrees from Venezuela...

    Awesome post. There are a lot of people that can't fathom the upbringing of those who grow up in slums in Argentina. It isn't so simple as why don't they just get a job and stop being lazy. It's not to excuse criminal behavior or anything else, but it helps to understand why it's a lot more...

    Hippi's reading comprehension is atrocious. Argentines enjoy Fernet. How do you know?? Have you spoken to every single Argentine and they claim to have liked Fernet? Take it easy man.

    December historically has the most crime every year in CABA and Provincia, so keep your wits about you.

    Your reading comprehension is lacking. He said "if I did the same thing to three punks from some El Salvadoran gang" - "if" ...not that they were Salvadorian.

    Lol gotta love Fiscal. You probably shouldn't have fought back, but respect for doing it. You never know how you're going to react until it happens. Something similar happen to me once in the street and the guy backed down. I wasn't thinking just reacted in the moment. Not the smartest move...

    PASO Election Results

    Bizarre...Milei's entourage and followers are using symbols from that are uniquely American...Don't Tread on Me flag, the American Flag, Confederate flag. Whatever the ideas of Milei are, this is not a good look. If it's a far right candidate in the US that's one thing, but an Argentine huh...

    I meant more on a practical level. Will the election results change policy, trajectory of the country in any way?
