    Selling Property

    We have a good accountant (we think) who also has our power of attorney for selling. The accountant has paid our taxes so knows our property well. What does the accountant do in regards to selling?

    Selling Property

    I can't find any more recent information in the forums on selling property and know that a lot has changed since last year. We own an apartment in Buenos Aires that several local Portenos would like to buy. We do not have a DNI. We do not need (we think) a realtor since we have buyers. We...

    Where Can I Get Some Maple Syrup?

    There is a gourmet shop on Puyrredon, about 1-2 blocks from Las Heras - a couple doors from the Queso Queso that usually has maple syrup from Quebec. It won't be cheap but it is good. The blue cheese at the same shop is also very good.

    I went to Dr. Oscar Zimman for liposuction and was very pleased. I interviewed many plastic surgeons before selecting him. His english is good, he is not "glitzy" and his credentials are excellent. If you want to send me a personal message, I'll be happy to answer in more detail.

    I hear good things about Dr. Oscar Zimman . I had liposuction done by him and am very pleased. Most of his practice is breast reduction or augmentation. Most of his clients are Portenos. His english is excellent - but his office staff does not speak english.

    Como en Casa Watch Your Purse

    There are three Como en Casa restaurants in my neighborhood. While the food is good, I don't go them very often because the service is usually bad. The wait staff congregate together - usually by the door - and are too busy chatting with each other to see the customers frantically waving for...

    After buying several poor quality (non-sticky) yoga mats, I found the best one at Vida Natural Yoga Centre located at Charcas 2852. It will not be cheap though. I have taken several excellent classes there also. The receptionist will tell you which classes are more difficult and which...

    Slow Internet

    Our computers have been very slow and inconsistent in loading websites - an eternity of grinding for even simple web pages. It feels like a virus but we have both an Apple and HP and both are slow - Apple is not generally impacted by viruses. We have had Fibertel problems recently but the...

    Travelling Around Salta by Car

    Day 5 will be tough. Either Cachi and Molinos are worth an overnight. We are wine people and often do the Salta to Molinos to Cafayate to Salta loop. There is a nice Hosteria in Molinos. The CAA hotel in Cachi is also decent. The Colome winery is amazing.
