I spent a weekend at El Ombu de Areco with a friend and we had a great time. The website is www.estanciaelombu.com It was my friends favourite part of his trip to BA. The prices were all inclusive and the food and wine were all good. We went horse went horse riding every morning and afternoon...

Hi Rafa, I have a tennis court at my apartment complex, Feel free to contact me and we'll arrange something although I would have to warn you that I am a beginner and wouldn't be much competition if you are a regular player!

I'm currently in discussion about buying a ticket for 800 or 1000 pesos (standing / seating) from an agency, PM me if you want to details

Please can somebody help give me an up to date rough idea of how much gas, electricity and broadband will cost and whether the subsidy has already been removed or will soon be removed (if it is about to be removed an idea of how much it's worth). To give you an idea, I will be living in a...

I plan to. I saw a few games in Sugar but am open to alternatives.

I am currently in the process of trying to rent an apartment in pesos (short term foreigner rental) and whilst the agents have managed to find some landlords willing to do business, it is severely restricting my choice.

I was expecting the dogs on the way out but thought that whilst they want people to bring dollars in they might want to catch people bringing in the dollars to supply the black market (e.g. undeclared sums over $10k). Also I can report that the Arg Peso buy rate was 40% higher than the sell...

Yesterday I went for a day trip to Colonia and couldn't help noticing that they did more baggage checks than I have experienced during the last 12 border crossings that I have completed here in south america. After scanning my rucksack through the x-ray machine, they then searched it (despite...

Hi Neeta, I haven't been here long either so would be good to meet up with you sometime. Inbox me and we'll meet up.

Haha, it wasn't that long ago that the last orders bell used to ring at 11pm back home!! On this occasion 7:30pm suits me to meet up with some new people as I have another appointment later on. But will meet up at some local bars at a more Argentine time with you on another night. You choose...

I went there in 2008 for 3 weeks and had a great time. Ecuador is very different to Argentina. Quito is in the mountains and has a lovely old town which on Sundays was off limits to motorised vehicles. Lots of nice architecture and churches. Otavalo is a nearby Andean town with a famous...

I'm new in Buenos Aires and would like to meet some people. I'm open to both the usual bars and going of the beaten track to find some less touristy bars. Can meet up at 7:30pm tomorrow but have another appointment later. Where is Milion? Cheers, Neil

I've not been long here either. PM me and we can meet up.

Thanks for all your advice. I didn't realise that San Telmo was such a no-no. Looks like I should concentrate my apartment search on Palermo or the nearby Las Canitas / Belgrano (although I don't have a car and have no intention of attempting to drive here.) Does anyone have a recommendation...

Hi All, Having already visited as a tourist, I've just returned to Buenos Aires to live and work for a year. I was hoping to meet some expats as well as some native speakers to practice my broken Spanish with. I was hoping that some of the people on here who have lived here for a while...
