    International Child Custody

    I contacted my mom as she was in a similar situation as you describe with me when I was born (but in a different South American country). She suggested going to the US Embassy without advising anyone else (i.e. the father) of what you are doing. Register your child as an American citizen and...

    Tax-free Refunds at EZE - warning

    Lovely. I was wondering about this. Thanks for the update. I had a bunch of receipts too. I made a point to shop at those stores taking into account getting the refund back on my credit card. Ugh! Well, that will eliminate any further spending here. Is there a Havana at EZE?

    Crime hot-spots in the capital

    I was in line waiting for bus 39 close to 1300 Av. Santa Fe around 2:15. When the bus came a man let me go in first with my children and then another lady. The bus was packed and we could hardly advance past the front door. The man attempted to get on the bus but then as the door closed he...

    Kiwi raised, London bred and looking for work in Buenos Aires!

    BASailor-Equal rights for women? Maybe a grander reverence for mothers than some other countries but I would not agree with EQUAL rights. They can also be an influence to their spouse behind closed doors but out in society and in the world of justice, I didn't see that it worked that way. In...

    Interesting to come across this post and feel I should share my own experience. I am a law student who has been in BsAs and working with a criminal attorney. During my time here I have had to often remind myself that I am not here to criticize but to observe and use this experience as a...

    Where to get SUBE card

    I have attempted to get a SUBE card at several post offices three different times. The first time the system was down, the second time I was told they ran out of cards and to come come back first thing in the morning as they run out early, the third I was told I needed to bring in my passport...

    Where to exchange dollars

    I've gotten a rate of 5.5 but I haven't looked anywhere else since the person is very trustworthy. I don't walk away thinking, hmmm...hope I didn't get false bills or other scary things I've heard from other people. Can I really do better somewhere else that is secure?

    Babysitting rates?

    I met a gal (from another South American country) who is a live out nanny for several expat families and she noted she earns AR$25 per hour. She seemed very content with that rate.

    Argentine was sooo mean to me! Is this normal?

    I am from the Pacific Northwest in the US and we are known for being very nice people. That being said, I don't particularly find the people in Argentina to be particularly warm or welcoming. I haven't had any situation close to what you are describing but in the short time I have been here I...
