Thank you all! @cbonanni, I am leaving from near Plaza Italia.

Totally random but just saw that my local Chinese Supermarket has a sign outside saying that they will no longer sell alcohol after 8pm. Is there a new law?

Aside from flagging down a taxi on the street, are there any pre-bookable taxi transfers or mini bus services to Ezeiza that the learn-ed and knowledgeable could recommend? I have a lot of stuff (4 x large suitcases and 2 x guitars) so I do not want to take public transport.

You can pay for bus tickets and ferry tickets in Pesos at the same rate as everyone else but you have to do it in person (at the bus station/ferry office) because using a US credit card will mean that you pay in dollars, that's IF you can get the website to work for you in the first place. If...

Just took a domestic flight and did not show my passport (or any ID) at any point in the process. Checked in online, printed own boarding pass and only took hand luggage. No passport required *anywhere* at the airport/on the plane. And FYI on domestic flights there's no restriction on...

Ladies (and long-haired gents) How much (pesos) does a cut and colour (medium length hair) cost in a very good/top salon? And does anyone know of an English-speaking hairdresser that could do a simple trim and colour for me? Or should I just wait out the two weeks I have left and blow the...

Airport taxes in Europe most likely. Just a guess.

Do you actually need one? If you're getting a visa they take your photo for you at the US Consulate Services Center on Santa Fe as part of the service. Once you book/pay for your appointment online you get two separate appointments, one for your photo and prints and then one for the actual visa.

Regarding safety: I live in Palermo and have not felt unsafe or insecure at any time and I walk around at night alone (I am of the female variety!). Of course I keep my wits about me and my bag firmly attached and only carry what I need. There are plenty of people about at all times on the main...

Thank you but I need something a little larger (as in screen size)! Anyone?

I need a computer screen (panel/flatscreen) for the next three weeks. Does anyone have one lying around that they are not using that I could borrow or rent?

Thank you all - I'm going to do some research!

I have the OSDE top tier health insurance plan and wondering if I should head to the dentist for cleaning etc before I head back to the USA (where I dental insurance but still have a hefty co-pay). What are dentists like here? And does anyone know of an English speaking dentist?

Thanks Wineguy! Will try that. Can anyone give me the correct Spanish phrase I need? I fear walking into a police station with my rudimentary level of Espanol may cause more harm than good...

And what's with the frozen peas...I can't find them anywhere. Found some in a Chinese Supermarket last week and they were so disgusting I threw the entire bag away...

1. A bike rental shop (not the shared 'city bikes') that will rent me a bike for a month. 2. A mobile phone repair shop/kiosk/hole-in-the-wall. 3. A place to get a notarised copy of my passport (urgently!) 4. A clothes repair shop/tailor for a simple repair. 5. A cueva. Answers on a...

Will probably travel on Via Bariloche in cama ejecutivo - any experiences?

Groceries are not cheap in Amsterdam unless you shop at Lidl etc.

Berlin or Amsterdam :P

Yes, please let me know where I'm going to be able to get a notarised copy of my passport since I'll be effectively passport-less for a few days.
