    Mosquito repellent

    I'm coming back again this week and I'm bringing a couple of pump action bottles of insect repellent. OMG! Now I've let that out, I've made myself a target! If I get mugged outside Ezeiza it won't be for my gold Rolex or the diamond encrusted rings - it'll be the mosquito spray they'll really be...

    Skipping second leg of a flight

    A bricks and mortar travel agent in Panama City once sold me a ticket like that and there were no comebacks for me but serious problems can arise. Google for Hidden City Ticketing and Lufthansa.

    Making sense of "expenses" in RE listings

    The expenses are denominated in local currency, presently known as the Peso (but watch this space) and written internationally as ARS or AR$ and within the country just as $ The expenses are paid monthly. Based on what's happening in our building both the purchase price and the expenses seem...

    Problem with exlandlord not releasing guarantee

    @NYCRover Wot @nikad sed - in spades. I suspect that anybody from Argentina who wanted to rent in NYC would find it just as confusing as you have found renting here because they would not be used to the NYC way of doing things. Words do not necessarily have the meanings that you might commonly...

    Bad bus service

    You might want to check the actual bus schedule first and look into any extenuating circumstances before you make a complaint but every bus has a big notice with a phone number for complaints printed on it

    Free Concerts In Buenos Aires

Maybe everybody is reorganising everything everywhere but I'd be interested to learn how the changes at CCK could be influencing what happens elsewhere. Parque Centenario belongs to...

    Getting a non-VOIP US phone number from Tello for 2FA

    Absolutely brilliant exposition, @obiwanderkenobi and I thank you for taking the trouble. I am British but in all other respects I Am Your Dad. I don't know if what I do is feasible from the USA but this is what I do and it works for me. I bought a dumb phone (Nokia 110 if you are asking) in...

    Buying bus tickets online

    I have never bought bus tickets for travel in Argentina online. I always buy in person at bus company offices in bus stations on the day, or a few days in advance if possible. The only times when there could any difficulty are Christmas, Easter and the peak holiday weekends of January and...

    Scooters in BA

    This may be just a matter of semantics but here goes. Coming for three months doesn't usually involve residency. If you are coming to do business you'll need a business visa; if you are coming as a tourist to do touristy things - including working online while enjoying a change of scenery -...
