    Should I Bring My Bike Or Buy One In Ba?

    Since you plan on taking it back and forth to the US, I am inclined to suggest you buy one here. If not, I would say to bring it! I miss my bike! I had a great TREK city bike, so comfy and perfect for me, but sold it before I came. I regret that now.

    Ten Year Resident Offering Advice For Cooperation

    I am sorry but this is just silly... There are pages and pages of threads on citizenship cases, inluding people who have shared every step of the process doing it themselves, like ElCordobés. I don't think there are any other online resource which so carefully explains the process here in...

    An Interesting Quiz: Test Yourself For Narcissism

    I got 12. Puh, not too narcisstic! Although I apparently think I am a bit superior to the rest of the world. :) Authority: 2.00 Self-Sufficiency: 2.00 Superiority: 3.00 Exhibitionism: 4.00 Exploitativeness: 1.00...

    Where Is My Dni?

    UPDATE: Tengo DNI! Yay! I went to Ave Jujuy this morning and it was there. They had tried to deliver it once a few weeks ago. Feels great to finally have (temporary but whatever) residency. I can get a bank account!! Now off to search the forum for bank recommendations. Good Monday to all!

    Favorite Expat Destinations

    Oh Joe, you have been missed! SO glad you are back! As the resident Norwegian: yes, Norway is very expensive. But the NOK has fallen against the dollar after the fall of the oil price, so things are slightly less expensive for foreign tourists now. The exchange rate was hovering around NOK 5.50...

    Where Is My Dni?

    GRACIAS Serafina!! I didn't know where to check this, and I kept looking at the $600 receipt, but now I found the other one, logged in where you indicated, and it says: El DNI y/o Pasaporte se encuentra en la oficina donde lo tramitó Does that mean I go to Migraciones to get it?? As for the...

    Where Is My Dni?

    ASperansky, were you able to get your DNI? I still have no news and I am getting a little anxious. I check in with the portero all the time but he hasn't received anything either. Lacoqueta, when you talk of this receipt with the number, is that the receipt from Migraciones from the payment? I...

    What Are You Watching On Netflix? Was It Any Good?

    Thorsten, thanks for the recommendation! I read the book and now I will check out the series! The Wire is my favorite series ever. If you liked that, maybe you would like the Israeli series Hatufim/Prisoners of War. I thought it was amazing!! (It is not on Netflix, though, but still thought it...

    The video is indeed kind of strange! :) That is a LOT of subtitles at once... but the recipe sounds good! Gracias!

    Share Your Favorite Vegan Recipes

    Serafina, I don't eat meat but I hardly ever eat any substitutions either - except for black bean burgers which I love! Anyway, some of my staple recipes include lentil stew - many of my Argentine friends say that they prefer my vegan version to the sometimes greasy guiso de lentejas with...

    Looking For Dutch Classes!

    The Instituto Sueco Argentino (ISA) teaches Nordic languages but a while back they also taught Dutch. You could email them and ask if they are planning to start up again: [email protected]. Good luck!

    Where Is My Dni?

    Thank you! Getting a text message would be great... Your first DNI was really quite fast then. Great, thank you! Hopefully mine is not far behind. I have had my precaria for a long time but only got the approval of the residencia temporaria in late April because I had to go in for an interview...

    Ten Year Resident Offering Advice For Cooperation

    I have to agree with Steve here - to come and post about being a great resource, but clearly not having ready anything here, is a bit weird! There are a LOT of knowledgable forum members who share their wisdom and we all appreciate it. (And I also don't get the thing about the package - it is...

    Where Is My Dni?

    How long did it take from your residencia was approved till you got word that the DNI was coming? Mine was approved late April so I have the PDF with the approval, but I have heard nothing since then, and on the page it just says that it was "resuelto" and that there is no movement. Thanks!

    State Dept. Suspends Overseas Passport, Visa Issuance

    El Queso, I am completely appalled that your wife cannot get a visa. Crazy! You seemed to have provided every single proof they could ever want to show that her ties are 100% here in Argentina. What a shame, and so sad for your parents who don't even get to meet her. Interesting also that...

    Country Life In Argentina - Who Would Like To Try It?

    AMEN. AMEN. AMEN. El Queso, I so agree. Ajo definitely ruins the forum for a lot of us. (My proudest accomplishment here at BAexpats was the thread were I gave him a piece of my mind and he actually stayed away for a while.) What a complete loser. A grown man being completely ridiculous and...

    Esteban, feliz viaje and we will miss you! So glad you all had a nice time today! And you are so right, the people, not the place, make the event.

    Comebacks

    I have spent some time in Mexico City and while there are some great things there, nice people, tons of stuff to do - exactly what you point out is why I wouldn't want to live there. Such a huge city, and such a love for cars - horrible combo! Definitely the kind of place where moving into the...
