Wow great information everyone, thanks... BA was not a choice for retirement, just a starting point for the visit since we had Tigre, Palermo, and a few others in mind and decided that a good starting point is right in the middle of it all... we like what SaraSara had to say and we too have done...

Great replies thanks so much for them... Spanish not as good as I would hope, but it's ok... we have read over the last year that's so important.

We have not been there yet, this is the first time. We have a couple friends that have retired there but are in Mendoza and Palermo area who don't have much knowledge of this side (BA) and another friend who lived there but was closer to Chile. The friends all speak highly of Argentina, so we...

Janet & Chad here. Just wanted to thank all for their messages and advise :D. We are booking our trip now for April, we think we found a great place in downtown BA with a balcony which we wanted too for a price we felt was reasonable, $330 US per week. We do have one more question: in several...
