I lived on Clay St., between Polk and Larkin in San Fran. for MANY years. When I moved in mid June of 2003, the rent was increased from US$353.09 to US$1,400.00. Yes, the landllord painted the 60 sq ft apartment.

Are Sube cards accepted by American airlines? The balance on my card is $5,475.

Yesterday the U.S. Embassy (Argentina branch) held an event at the Hard Rock Cafe in Recoleta. It was held between 530 and 830. Since I didn't arrive until 7 15, can't attest to what took place before I got there. There were about 150 people in a very attractive room. Most of the men (not I)...

A "Pragpole?" I'm going to have to ask Esteban.

Let's go after Coffee Chat. Questions about voting? You've got to tbe kidding ! Give me a 'D". give me a

I get emails from Kathleen Peddicord on an almost daily basis. I think her organization is Live and Invest Overseas or something like that.She promotes retirement to places like, Panama, Medellin, Belize and sponsors seminars in the U.S. Currently, she's pushing the Algrave in Portugal I've been...

I've been going a TEGOBA (the English group of Buenos Aires) for quite some time.While Coffee Chat is almost all expats, this group is mostly locals with expats. Johnie Walker is a regular, as are other BAexpat folk. We meet on Friday nights from 8-10 at Fame auto servicio restaurant at Cabildo...

I have been attending Coffee Chats for 25 years, more or less. I can honestly say that last week's gathering was the best ! It might have been better if Jan Tango was there. Will she make another rare appearance? We can only hope.

Be prepared for a big disappointment I went, yesterday. IMHO, it was horrible.

Today and tomorrow there is a French Market at the Hipodromo on el Libertador in Palermo. Many of BA's French restaurants are being represented. Why would the French and the Mexicans have similar happenings on the same day (saturday)? That's a great question.

Not too long ago, I was under the impression that everything was coming up roses with the BA economy. Didn't we read on this forum that someone said that the exchange rate would be $20. to US$1.00. Yesterday, I got $14.20 to US$1.00 Inflation is 40%. Mayb the name of this country should be...

Why did you decide to move to BA? I would think that speaking fluent Spanish would be a requirement for almost any job. Do you speak fluent Spanish?

I would doubt very much if someone could live in BA on an English teacher's salary. I read,a few days ago, that inflation, here is running at 40%,a year !!! As everything gets more expensive,many people won't consider learning English as a top priority. Back to the drawing board.

$$$$$$1, Bring the Mexican food to Coffee Chat ,tomorrow. Surely, the folks at Star *ucks will heat it up.. Or you could heat it under the outside heaters.

What about foreign transaction fees?

About 2 years ago, when was paying for something with my U.S. bank credit card in a store in Madrid, Spain the cashier asked me if I'd like to be charged in Euros or U.S. dollars? I had never been asked that before or since. Last year, in another European city I asked for my purchase to be...

Donald Trump is the only hope to save America. God bless America. God bless Donald Trump

Sorry, on Tuesday afternoons Ethel takes Fijian lessons. She wants to be able to speak a language that Esteban does know.

On another post I saw another McKenna. The one that I was thinking of has been an expat in BA for only 37 years. Two McKennas attend Coffee Chats ?

McKenna was there.
