Curious to know if it's possible to wire money from the US to Argentina via Western Union nowadays? I searched the forum and haven't seen any recent posts on this.

I've seen quite a bit about scorpions in the local media as of late. Is anyone noticing any around or in their residence? http://www.thebubble...n-buenos-aires/ http://www.lanacion....ran-a-las-casas

I checked on fares from Seattle to Buenos Aires and got a notice that it would be about 1000 dollars less to fly from Vancouver. Looking around a bit I see that it's possible to fly for under 1000 dollars from Toronto to EZE. Why is the price so different? I know the Canadian dollar is somewhat...

In an AP interview, Macri discusses his goal to crack down on corruption in Argentina. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/the_americas/ap-interview-argentine-president-promises-graft-crackdown/2016/03/17/3d8e5ea8-ebfa-11e5-a9ce-681055c7a05f_story.html

I've heard anecdotally that something is "going around" from the portero and folks on the street. It swooped down on my family for three days and it wasn't pretty. Anyone else experiencing something like this?

Most people like to eat well and enjoy a pleasant dining experience. I know there are many good places in the city to do this, but there are also establishments that don't seem understand this. How about a thread of restaurants to avoid like the plague? I'll start. Last night I thought I'd try a...

Not looking for a gourmet place. Just a decent steak. It's getting so hit and miss anymore. Used to be that it was almost impossible to find a bad bife de chorizo here. The last couple I've had were like chewing on old pair of Nikes.

Not something that usually comes up on an expat forum, but I imagine that some of you have some knowledge of this subject. I'm trying to get some recommendations for an elderly relative that may need to transition into some kind of assisted living situation. I know that some of these can cost a...

The CATO institute thinks so. https://www.yahoo.com/travel/most-miserable-countries-in-the-world-109994165012.html

Preferably not Parque Norte. Many of the clubs like GEBA require membership. Are there any others that one can use by paying a daily fee besides the uber expensive hotels?

The article even makes mention of this forum as an online resource. Not a single negative word to be found. http://finance.yahoo...8ff329&bcmt_s=u

I am a US citizen and am applying for residency in Argentina via marriage. I was born in Germany (Father US Army, mother German) and lived there until 18 months of age, so I am assuming that I will need a criminal background check for there too though it seems ridiculous! I have no German...

Sorry if this has been asked before. I'm applying for residency and I seem to recall it was 90 days, but can't find the info. I have the apostille and can redo the process if need be as I'm in the US right now. Thanks.

We have been doing online pedidos from abroad for years for a family member through Disco and have had no problems. Today this relative was called by Disco and told that the person holding the card had to go to a local Citibank (the card's origen) and have the card authorized before it would be...

I have a few clothing items I would like to send. It would take up little room and I would pay $. Thanks

I posted a trip report on another forum about a hike to El Cerro Champaqui in the Sierras Grandes of Corboba that I made recently. This is the highest peak in The Sierra Central and is located near Villa General Belgrano. Enjoy: http://www.nwhikers.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=779155#779155
