    Living In Buenos Aires With 3 Kids Under 4

    i think living here is in many ways easier with young kids. They're more tolerated, private schools, classes, nannies are far less expensive, and there are more restaurants, etc that are kid friendly. the bad stuff is street crime, pollution, terrible nutritional and sleep habits. 1. What are...

    Best Cell Phone Carrier? Moviestar Or Claro?

    UPDATE: i'm pleasantly surprised at how well the little "Razor i" on the Personal service unlimited data plan is working. Perhaps it's from all the warnings and the fact that i was coming from AT&T in LA. But, i get decent connectivity around town. I desperately miss my iphone though, the...

    Where To Get Plain Greek Style Yogurt Or Organic Plain?

    we've only been here 2 weeks, but i can't figure out where to get not-super-sweet yogurt.
