    NY Post: What's the deal with Buenos Aires?

    She really summed up the BA experience very, very well. I recently lived there for 1 year and still go back and forth from NYC to BA. What she said about all the scams going on was spot on. From the corrupt taxi drivers to the rude waiters who shortchange you every chance they get. That said...

Go figure. I love ALL people, Argentines, Americans, EVERYBODY.... but it's sad to hear such misinformed...

    Expats not happy, why stay?

    Yeah, well, if it wasn't for all the classism and anger and robbery and corruption throughout Buenos Aires, I bet a lot more expats would stay. It's sad really. It's sad to see a country with so much potential destroy itself. However, many DO stay and hope for the best. Some even try to make a...

    Why are Argentines so Angry?

    Why are Argentines so Angry? I used to think it was just me who thought this, but after being here for 6 months and speaking to plenty of locals and foreigners (like myself, from the USA).... I have concluded that this city, generally speaking, is very ANGRY. Mostly the women in the 28 - 58...

    Why Argentine Women are so Angry!

    I agree -- there IS an anger in many Argentine women.... It's not just a coincidence, but as far as I can see, something going on in the culture. Many of them are so mean for no apparent reason... They show a blatant lack of respect in many situations, especially women working at restaurants...

    entry into argentina

    I purchased a one-way ticket as well... arriving in a few days. I, too, was curious as to whether there would be a problem by purchasing a one-way, as I heard of the possibility that I may be rejected.

    Unlocked Cell Phone Help

    the only risk is "attempting" to unlock the phone up to, about, 10 times unsuccessfully -- at that point, you run the risk of having your phone permanently locked. but it's pretty easy as long as you put in the proper IMEI number with the assigned (what you pay for) code. and that's it! good luck.
