    Immigration office in Buenos Aires

    I totally disagree. We all know that English is the most widely-spoken language in the world. So, I think the guys at migraciones should be required to speak it. This is NOT some local shop we're talking about. It is MIGRACIONES, which is a public office specifically aimed at helping foreigners...

    EXPATS BOYCOTT ARGENTINE TRAVEL

    It amazes me how some people keep defending argentines at all costs, no matter how wrong or unfair their behavior is. Now let me get this straight... If a foreigner criticizes Argentina he or she is a "racist", but if argentines bash other nationalities they are not... because their hatred is...

    School violence in Argentina

    ...And this differs from Argentina how exactly??? With all the crime going on here I don't see why an argentine would be so shocked by LA... Don't you see all the people that are attacked in Buenos Aires on a regular basis? I think it's time you argentines stop being so hypocritical and start...

    Why don't Portenos know the words "I'm sorry"

    I have traveled all over Europe and the US and nobody has ever refused to give me directions. I guess Argentines are not so special after all... Most people I've come across in other countries have always been helpful. But that alone does not indicate that they are polite, though. There's much...

    Why don't Portenos know the words "I'm sorry"

    Promising to be there for someone and then not showing up without even apologizing is simply WRONG, regardless of one's nationality. For your information, not all argentines think this is normal behavior... In fact, some of them are very critical of it, which flushes your theory down the toilet...

    Why don't Portenos know the words "I'm sorry"

    Mr. Anthropologist, your ridiculous statements make it evident that this job doesn't suit you. Showing up late or not showing up at all without even apologizing is irresponsible behavior. It is clearly a lack of consideration for others, and shows that the argentines who do it think only of...

    Argentine women

    Good post. I concur with everything you said. First of all I have to agree about the fact that Argentina having the most beautiful girls in the world is just a myth. Yes there are some pretty ones, but c'mon, the majority are not that great... I've met a lot of foreign men who have been here and...

    Anybody been to Lima?

    I went to Lima about 4 years ago. Nice place. Much cleaner than Buenos Aires. Public spaces and squares are neat and well kept. Just for the record, I only visited the popular tourist spots and upscale barrios (e.g. Miraflores). I'm well aware that those places generally don't represent what a...

    Why don't Portenos know the words "I'm sorry"

    JG, you hit the nail on the head. Most argentines are just too arrogant to admit their mistakes. For them, it's always someone else's fault, not theirs! They are experts at making excuses and blaming everything and everyone but themselves. As for argentines being late for appointments or not...
