    What do American expats miss the most about living in America?

    In my opinion, there is plenty of good food in Argentina. The cuisine is limited, causing many here to criticize the lack of choices, and of course many love to criticize the general quality of many dishes. I enjoy the pizza in Argentina for example, but I know it's not like a great Neapolitan...

    Argentine women are the only thing I really don't like in Argentina.

    True that you weren't making a direct comparison between Argentinas and American women - in fact, you were comparing Argentinas to all other women on the planet. The first Argentina I became intimately involved with was/is direct, open, loving and devoted. Most of the others I know well (20 or...

    If one wants to generalize, I'll take Argentine women over women American women any day.

    Declaring more than 10,000 USD in cash

    It's legal to carry massive amounts of cash, as long as it's declared on both sides. My wife used to work for a company that traded in hard currency, so I've spent hours in airports dealing with customs agents, many of whom were not the sharpest knives in the drawer. Remember, one ambitious...

    Buenos Aires seems safer and nicer than Los Angeles, what happened to the United States?

    You had me right up to the boomer part. You can blow the boomer bit out your backside. We don't all support moronic Trumpist attitudes, and many of us realize the serious problems in the USA. Lots of boomer's eyes are wide open.

    15 Reason Why I Like Ba Living ...

    True that Argentine wines are pricier in the US than in Argentina, but I have to play devil's advocate on PhilipDT's point about variety. When (if?) I am finally living in Argentina full-time, I will sorely miss German Riesling and a large selection of affordable and delicious Pinot Noir, not to...
