    Looking for a private Spanish tutor/teacher in Buenos Aires

    Plenty of tutors from any language institution, although it can be pricey, but it's in person, it's better. Or you can try Preply, it's online one on one. I hired a former professor from University of Salvador as my private spanish tutor for past two years, and she only charges me 15 dollar per...

    Hit by Chinese imports, Argentina’s textile industry is reeling

    it doesn't exist, it's delusional to think about Argentina would do good in fabric industry. Not every country is the same, or to follow the same path.

    Hit by Chinese imports, Argentina’s textile industry is reeling

    I don't think 10 USD for a pair of low quality Argentine made underwear in Jumbo super market make any sense neither. Quality and affordability is far more important for Argentine and expats than worry about China destroys the near none-exist fabric industry, In fact they need to catch up...

    Keeping US bank cards while living in Argentina?

    3850 dollar per month, my friend who worked at USDA got fired this year doesn't even make this much. I don't think many would make this much in Argentina either. My expenses in Palermo is around 1500 in total including rent, and yet fullly decent. 4K must be for a family.

    Landed in BA 3 days ago. I'm lost

    Freaking cold? Really? That's a great sense of humor. Curious where you come from? Bariloche right now is 13C while BA is 16-22. So I'd say no. And nowhere in Argentina could be as cold as Minnesota. BA is fine, apply common sense and go where people go, you be fine. Try to speak Spanish as...

    Tips for exploring Buenos Aires - from someone dating a local

    I don't think it's AI written, becuase AI would do much better job. The writter most likely is an Argentine and English is her second language.

    Tips for exploring Buenos Aires - from someone dating a local

    Original Quote:"Obviously, I was not allowed near the fire pit in case I created some sort of imbalance that would ruin the spell of the asador (head chef, basically). " I can't follow what it says, sounds pretty strange. But probably someone bad at writting had no clue on what so ever, and AI...

    Import/customs fees for clothing?

    That 3000USD scheme is misinterpreted, my package was valued around $100 dollar and I paid more taxes than the worth of goods. I believe that 3000USD cap is to facilitate something about 'easy processing scheme', with lelss bureaucracy when paying taxes, but not taxe free.

    Import/customs fees for clothing?

    Back in May my friend sent me a small box of cloths, three pairs of shirt, one pair pants, and a pair of Nike sneakers via Fedex, and I paid upfront importation tax of 150,000 pesos, roughly at the time around 140 USD or so. Just buy cloth here, or maybe shopping in elsewhere when vacationing.

    Buying a House in Argentina

    Well, maybe if someone buying an apartment around constitution or in Microcentro, I've seen as low as 25K to 30K, that might be more practical to gather 25-30K cash.

    Buying a House in Argentina

    If it's 250K, just bring 10K each trip from home, in 25 trips you'd have the 250K hard cash in hands.
