Does anyone know when Polo season is, and how one can acquire tickets?

We were prepared for the lack of North American food when we moved here - it's all part of the adventure, right? We did bring some Cheerios and maple syrup with us, but got worried when stocks got low. We were just in La Paz on vacation and stopped in at a small local grocery store; lo and...

We've been here 3 months, and our almost 4 year old daughter has outgrown all her shoes. We purchased some outrageously expensive running-type shoes at Mimo which fell apart after 6 weeks. We then purchased two pairs of inexpensive (= cheap) shoes at two different independent stores last...

Hello, we are looking for a part-time nanny for our 3 & 1/2 year old girl. We are still in the middle of sorting out her daytime schooling situation, and may need a nanny to take care of her some part days when school is not in session, or to help shuttle her from school A to school B at...

We just moved to BA on Monday, and Air Canada literally destroyed 6 of our 10 bags, lost 2, and one is still missing (one was returned mid-week). The still missing bag contained all of our daughter's wardrobe. Where can I go to shop for cheap replacement clothing (everything, from socks and...

Hi, I'm moving to BA in February for 1 year with a possible 1 year extension and will need to rent an apartment. We'll likely be living in Olivos, but on a budget limited to 6000 pesos/month (plus utilities). My question is: is it reasonable to find a 3-bedroom place for that little, or would it...

Hi, I'm moving to BA in February and will be commuting from Olivos to Recoleta area. What can you tell me about the commuter rail? How long would such a commute take? How reliable/on time are trains? What are the frequencies? I assume I would transfer to the metro system after the commuter rail...

I know it's often hard to find larger shoe sizes for women outside of North America -- I wear a women's size 10 (41/43?) - should I bring the shoes I'll need, or will I be able to find a good selection in BA? Thanks!

Hi Forum! I'll be moving with my family to BA in February. We'll likely be living in Olivos, or quite near there. Any recommendations for gymnastics lessons for 3-4 year olds? Thanks!

Hi, My family and I will be moving from Canada to BA in February. Reading through other posts it seems there are some "interesting" details we'll have to learn about moving money between BA and home. I'll be paid in pesos, but we'll need some start up money (rent deposits, etc.) for the first...
