    How many of you made the move to Argentina solo?

    Hi MrBart, As far as moving here is concerned, very generally speaking -keep in mind that there are always two main groups in the population of any city, the locals that haven't traveled much & the multi-national locals who have traveled & are more relaxed in a 'mixed' group. I was born here...

    laptop ´TAX´ at ezeiza?! BEWARE

    Meant to clarify that my two laptops did go through the ex-ray, they did see them, but just asked me where I was traveling from & did not try anything. These two laptops look very new, but they did not even ask me to pull them out of the bags.

    laptop ´TAX´ at ezeiza?! BEWARE

    Hi, I was worried about this happening to me too when I returned six weeks ago from Europe, but I was carrying 2 newish laptops that were both under 7months old. I too was surprised to see an ex-ray machine on the way out! Luckily the only thing that happened was that the official just asked me...

    Argentina economic outlook

    .... who are the editors in the finance news media? maybe they report back to the same paymaster. Who dictates the agenda? If Bloomberg.com & gang blacklist you, there's no fair game... Argentina will never win with the news mafia.

    Argentina economic outlook

    .....George Bush is just a 'trust fund baby' ... he had the 'Pailin' like effect that was needed to rouse the common garden variety republican vote. The lame duck that was saved by Osama. The neocon conservatives that pull the strings have already 'left the building' so to speak... the...

    Argentina economic outlook

    Hi Stan, thanks for the link you provided but the 'four letter word' that you label him (the author) with does not balance when I read his article. Independent 'thinking' that doesn't gel with the mainstream (mob) finance media does not automatically equate to 'left wingers under the bed'...

    Argentines start bringing their money home

    Hi Pericles, I'm one of those Argies. But my money will remain in an Australian bank for now. Being away for 35years & returning takes a bit of adjustment in language/culture/life style etc, but it's refreshing & exciting & I can see so many business opportunities in spite of all the...

    Argentines start bringing their money home

    The term 'wetback' will expand it's meaning to cover more types of economic 'migrants',... as an Argentinian I would wellcome north Americans here, but I'm not sure about the Spaniards from Spain:-)

    90 days

    just had a thought... with the economic melt down to the north.. the term "Wetback" will have a new meaning. But, only with the diference that in buenos aires, north americans will always be wellcome.

    Do argentines not use tampons?

    Hi Dudester,Yes you're right, sorry. I was being very childish. Yes, I was probably acting like a silly 10yr old. For what it's worth I didn't really mean to offend you, I was genuinely & honestly just hoping to help out with a quick thought/idea when I suddenly got impulsive, .... I have been...

    Do argentines not use tampons?

    Hi, I'm not a woman but I would like to help.I did a quick search on ebay for tampons in the US, I don't know but I think there are a lot of dealers selling them, surely some of them would be understanding/willing to ship to BA, maybe you can email some of them before you bid & check. Surely...

    Born in Argentina, grew up in Australia- returning...

    Hi everyone, I'm so glad to find this site! I was born in BA but grew up in Australia. My Spanish is very good, but it's much easier to speak & write in English! As long as I speak shorter sentences- other Argies will say that I still sound like a local. Anyway, I'm coming back to my place...
