Does not look so much different, actually :)

Is it actually possible to buy a real one here? Do you decorate your home for Christmas? How do you get into the Christmas spirit during the summer time?

Can somebody explain me what's going on by the Congress now? Is this about the pension reform?

Hi guys! I go to panaderias to buy facturas fairly often . I can usually pick them out by myself, but sometimes I struggle with the names. This results in me having to point to pastries and just smile at the employee hoping they will get the point and pick them up for me. So far, I've learned a...

Is anyone going? http://www.ticketbis.net/madonna-buenos-aires-tickets/ev12563 I've never been to the stadium so I don't know how good/bad the sound will be, but I imagine the show will be pretty impressive! I'm not a die hard Madonna fan but I do enjoy her music and the nostalgia of her...

I was just reading about this theater show: http://agendacultural.buenosaires.gob.ar/evento/en-familia/5915 It sounds interesting. My Spanish is passible, I know I'd struggle and miss out on stuff, but I was wondering what you guys thought of Argentine theater. 1. Do the culture differences...

http://buenosairesherald.com/article/117869/tourists-spend-$817-million-during-long-weekend I have to admit, when I first heard about the LAW that required a long weekend every month of the year, I thought it was a bit silly, but it seems to be doing the country some good. Did any of you take a...

I have never heard any jazz in Buenos Aires before. I'm sure it exists, of course, I just personally haven't experienced it, and I'm wondering if I should expect it to be very different from the jazz I'm used to? I saw this Jazz Festival is coming up...

I am sure plenty of Americans like myself celebrated Thanksgiving a few days ago, but I am curious, how many of you stick to your home country's holiday traditions? I insisted on making a full-on traditional dinner, but with the heat, I think that perhaps for Christmas we might alter the menu a bit!

I love Noche de Museos! I was planning on trying to hit several of them that night, I just saw this article encouraging bike usage: http://www.buenosaires.gov.ar/noticias/vivi-en-bici-la-noche-de-los-museos I have used the free bicycles before but never at night. Do you guys think it's a bad...

Mauricio Macri was invited as a guest of honor to 1975 Nobel Prize winner: http://www.buenosaires.gov.ar/noticias/distincion-de-honor-al-premio-nobel-de-medicina-david-baltimore Apparently this guy works in California trying to find a cure for AIDS.

I just saw this on the government website: http://agendacultural.buenosaires.gob.ar/evento/picnicba/6039 This sounds like so much fun. It's happening November 3rd from 3-9pm. There will be tons of musical acts, artists, and other entertainment. I love picnics and this looks like a great family...

I keep seeing more and more articles like this one: http://buenosairesherald.com/article/114950/teacher-strikes-to-affect-classes-all-week-in-ba-province Usually, I support teachers and feel they have a right to fight for better pay, benefits, etc but I haven't found any information about what...

Every time I see a group of people with signs, I admit, it kind of just blends into the background for me, but I did find this interesting: http://buenosairesherald.com/article/112689/students-takeover-34-schools-march-to-education-ministry-in-ba Students are protesting changes to curriculum...

Of course, I found out about this artist just a little too late. I only heard her song "I've lied to you" last week (which I love!) and now I find out she was here yesterday! Bummer. Did anyone see the show? I'm curious as to what she is like live. For those of you who haven't heard her yet...

I just found out there is going to be a Eugenio Zanetti exhibition at the Maman Fine Art Gallery. I've actually never heard of this gallery before, had anyone else? Is there anything else there worth seeing? It's in Recoleta so I imagine it must have at least a few other interesting things. I...

I came across this article that is both funny but also infuriating. It's about how the Argentine government claims that a person can survive on 6 pesos a day for food. I think we all know that's impossible! http://tinyurl.com/six-peso What do you think is a normal amount for 1 person to spend...

I just saw this article about public school teachers going on strike, with 350 students affected, were any of your children unable to attend? http://buenosairesherald.com/article/110288/state-school-teachers-on-strike-disrupt-traffic-in-ba-city-centre There isn't much information in this...

These reactions are pretty outrageous! They sound too ridiculous, but it IS New York! http://www.buzzfeed.com/hillaryreinsberg/very-new-york-moments-outside-the-empire-state-bui
