"Presidents José Mujica and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner are keen to reduce capital flight from Argentina to Uruguay. New agreement expected to encourage further black market currency moves Argentina’s push to share more banking data with Uruguay is sparking concern that the move will make it...

Normal in Buenos Aires is it takes 45 minutes to take 10,000 pesos out of the bank and you pray that you will make it home without being robbed at gun point.

Yeah, it is not like it is your money anyway.

This could be good news to me depending if the guys were running after him or running with him. In my limited experience with witnessing crimes is that no one does anything besides grab their belongings and thanks Christina, I mean God, that it was not them.

I would like to talk about photography and web design. :) [email protected]. Antares in Las Canitas is a great location and if you get there early 2 for 1 happy hour!

I suggest big cargo pants and put equal amounts in each of the side pockets.

Need more info to give you quotes for those items. Most importantly the capacity of the Ipads and the Iphone and the size of the Macbook pro.

The sad fact is that you need to be careful all the time here and getting angry is not going to help you stay safe. There are more and more cases being reported of people being shot for resisting a robbery. Even though you know you can defend yourself I doubt if they would think twice about...

I understand what you are talking about. It seems that I have seen more crazy things in this city in the 3.5 years that I have been here than my wife in her 40 years living here. You have to love this city that requires that we live our lives with our eyes wide open. You did the right thing...

That is one reason that I try to make some sort of connection with the vendors that I do business with on a regular basis. But I have developed the DTA (Dont Trust Anyone) attitude in my interactions with those vendors that I do not know. It is necessary to ask the price of things to catch the...

Dell has some good computers but their lower end stuff has some low end components. It is great that you were able to get it serviced here. That is not something that is easily done. Although many people have had good experiences with Apple repairs in the local stores here, they have never...
