Went back to England, was amazed that after 2 years Starbucks coffee had gone up only 10p. In argentina, it seems to go up in price about 2 pesos every 3 months.

I'm a web / backend developer, would be interested in doing some networking.

Yea, in the branch in Alto Palermo they signed me up for a contract on a 40 peso plan, cancelled it immediately, and said that in a few days I can go back and they will move me over to a different plan. Anyway I went with an argentine friend to the main Personal branch in Callao and apparently...

Systems engineering. Oral spanish is good, but written is poor and having to do all the reading/writing in spanish would be a real issue.

I'm thinking of going to university to study engineering, and I'm interested to hear a little about experiences from other people who went to a university here.. So, some q's: * Which university did you go to? * Was the quality of the teaching good? Did the professors have time to help you...

So how does this work, can you stay for 3 years and just pay a fixed fine on the way out?

I'm pretty fond of Cadbury's myself. Available nearly anywhere too!

Freak out?
