After living in Argentina for nearly 6 years, I am definitely not the same person that I was when I arrived. Argentina has changed me for the better in the sense that I am a lot less strung-out and more patient when it comes to sweating the small, daily stuff. If someone arrives late, or if...

I do NOT miss: * A lack of employment. * Doubting if I can afford to go to the doctor, dentist, etc. due to not having health insurance (or very poor coverage).

Hi, Stacey! I teach in the middle school at Lincoln (ELL). If there are any questions that you have that I might be able to answer, let me know! :)

In my household, we don't own a car or drive, but we are still very much feeling the effects of inflation. Our expensas just went up over 100 pesos this month. Our Fibertel bill went up over 50 pesos this month. Insurance, basic utilties, etc. etc. etc. Every time we receive a new bill, we...

I met my Argentine media naranja here over 4 years ago, and now we have a naranjita :) I honestly can't imagine sharing my life with anyone else. It is absolutely possible to find love here, but as Lucha54 mentioned, it's equal parts you, the other person, and fate.

Hi, Sarita, When I traveled to Santiago in July 2010, I only had temporary residence, and they did charge me the reciprocity fee (saying that it applies to tourists and those with just temporary residence). I think I made a mistake when I presented both my US passport and my temporary DNI at...

I recommend Ximena Tobias... She works in Belgrano, quite close to the Barrio Chino. I haven´t seen her for over a year, so I am not sure what she charges nowadays, but she speaks fluent English and is excellent. [email protected]

Good point! Jeje... He is particularly interested in the historical aspect of the city, and apart from that, it's pretty open as far as the activities (he just wants to experience Buenos Aires in general).

Hey, guys! My father is flying from the US to Buenos Aires for 6 days/5 nights this coming week, and I'm still trying to find some fun, touristy stuff to do with him. Since he won't be here for too long, I probably need to limit our activities to Capital Federal and certain parts of GBA (as...

I called the Nuñez location a few days ago. As the category of this particular location is "platinum plus," one single month is $1,100 pesos, a year is over $8,000 pesos (I don't remember the specific amount).

What a shock... Despite his advanced age and failing health, it is still such a shock. So very sad. He was an incredible soul, may he rest in peace. "Do not judge me by my successes. Judge me by how many times I fell down and got back up again." - Nelson Mandela

Hi, Mixiekins, As you can imagine, money will undoubtedly be an issue, as Buenos Aires is an expensive city and Argentina is an expensive country. However, living and working abroad could come in handy on a future resume, as it would surely set you apart. If your intention is not to do it long...

It seems to me that the OP is more concerned with saving a few pesos than expanding his search to some designers who are potentially more experienced, talented, and knowlegeable. Meh, that's his prerogrative. If he chooses to potentially compromise the quality of his website, whatever. You...

Has anyone had a positive experience with a recommendable escribano near the Nuñez/Belgrano area? Knowledge of English is not necessary.

Hi, Thuraya, In regards to your question, I work full time in a school, but the school is on vacation until the end of this month. I typically go home to Ohio about once a year, or at least I did before I had my son. But international travel is expensive and is only going to become more...

I've been living in Argentina for about 4 1/2 yrs, and met my Argentine husband after I had been living here for about 9 or 10 months. At that point (back in 2009), my intention was to stay in Buenos Aires regardless, but as we can all testify, Argentina is a far cry from the country that it...

Once upon a time (in 2009), I met the love of my life here in Buenos Aires. We got married and lived happily ever after. Fin. :)
