    Quick question about Western Union

    I found a WU location that does cambio, and I tried to ask this question to them directly, but language barrier. So I need to send dollars to myself. Can I just receive my transfer in dollars there, or do I still need to go through getting my money in pesos and then going to other counter to...

    Has anyone seen Häagen-Dazs?

    I know it's silly, but I'm really craving some vanilla Häagen-Dazs. There was a Jumbo on Av Cervino that carried it earlier this year, but I went back last week, and I guess they don't anymore. Does anyone know where else i could find it?

    Could someone make a phonecall for me?

    Uh, can't seem to edit my original post, so I'll just say it here. I've been reminded Whatsapp exists. I'll use that instead. I'm now unwatching this thread. Thank you.

    Thank you, but Dr Ramon Carrillo's office are the ones who referred me to the college.

    Could someone make a phonecall for me?

    I'm sorry. I'm not sure what's surreal about it, but I do think I might have been having a panic attack while I wrote it. I've been getting a lot of harassment on Twitter for the last few weeks, and I think getting asked to come back next week again was sort of just the feather that broke the...

    Could someone make a phonecall for me?

    I've been trying to get into the dental college for over a month now. At first, it was my own fault. I caught the flu. But I've been trying to get in for three weeks now. The first one, we were a little too late. They said come back next week. I came back next week, and the guard told me it was...

    Does anyone know how long it takes the ambulance to arrive

    I mean, no, but as much as ever. She's disabled, and struggles to walk and stand even at the best of times. This flu has really knocked her on her ass, though.

    Does anyone know how long it takes the ambulance to arrive

    Yeah, we waited about four hours, and then my partner managed to find the strength to stand, so we took an uber. Thanks. We will probably not try to rely on ambulance in the future.

    Does anyone know how long it takes the ambulance to arrive

    Apparently, they're just really backed up today. I managed to find a cop, who followed up for me and confirmed that they are coming, but it's going to be a while.

    Does anyone know how long it takes the ambulance to arrive

    Hoping by the time I get a response, it won't be relevant anymore, but right now, it's been an hour, and I'm scared they're not coming. I couldn't call myself. I had to text the maid at this Airbnb, and she doesn't speak English. She said she called them, but doesn't know how long it will take...

    What is seguro de caución de Finaer?

    Google translate says it's some kind of surety insurance, but I don't know what that means or who to talk to about it. Also, is this another one that I'll need a DNI to get? I'm still working on that.

    How to receive mail 2023

    Guess that explains what happened to my last care package. How do I get something out of customs? I assumed it would move through on its own eventually.

    How to receive mail 2023

    I found this thread https://baexpats.org/threads/how-to-receive-stuff-in-the-mail.9361/ But it's from 2010. I wanted to know if anything has changed. Also, do I need a DNI, or is my passport sufficient? I'm still moving almost every week, and I can't figure out if the police will give me a...

    Dengue in the City of BA

    We might have to invest in mosquito spray. They don't bother me much for some reason, but my partner is a mosquito magnet. We were outside for 15 minutes waiting for an uber to show up, and she got 12 bites on her ankles.
