    New Dni For Foreigners - V. Lopez

    Just an FYI, as I waited in line from 7-8 a.m. this morning to take a number (as instructed when I went to the office on Garay in Olivos to ask how to renew) with 150 other people, the system has now changed. You can now book an appointment online here...

    Selling 1999 Fiat Palio

    I'm selling our 1999 red "3-door" Palio because we're moving to Europe. Great mileage, and Fiats are very inexpensive to fix if there's a problem. I'd prefer a bank transfer to my account in the U.S. rather than a handful of pesos. I've owned it for the last 4 years and never had an issue...

    CrossFit in Zona Norte!

    I'm pretty stoked that there's a new location in San Isidro (the last one was in Don Torcuato...not the easiest to get to, and not as nice a neighborhood). Free workout tomorrow at 11 a.m. to check out the new box! I'll be there to get my butt kicked tomorrow--who's coming? Don Bosco 531 in...

    Telecommute jobsite

    Dear all, Knowing that many would like to stay in Buenos Aires, but have a hard time finding work that pays well, I'd like to recommend a website to find legitimate online work. I checked out this job site recently, and actually got a couple short term contracts through it that involved my...

    Chocolate Review

    For those who like great chocolate, but also want to eat healthy, here's my recommendation: El Aguila Costa Marfil 60% The Ecuador 60% has trans fat in it, as does many brands of chocolate and alfajores if you read the labels. Yes, you can get some good chocolate like Lindt's and Fenix...

    Any Barefoot Runners out there?

    I've been following the whole running shoe debate for the last several years including research in biomechanics, etc. I finally just read Born to Run and I'm inspired--picked up a pair of Vibram Five Fingers and would like to meet up with some others to run with and help correct my running...

    Help! U.S. Embassy contact?

    I have a friend who needs to pay her $140 before her interview. As many of you may have seen on the news, Banco Ciudad (where you make those payments) is on strike. There's supposedly a way to print a RapiPago form in the application process, but it's not coming up. She does not have an atm...

    Found a real dental cleaning!!!

    I recently got a REAL teeth cleaning complete with flouride rinse. The place, unfortunately, is located here: http://bit.ly/oIfhbF but if it's only twice per year, it's definitely worth the trip. The 41 and the 130 will drop you off at the front door. The dentist who did the cleaning is named...

    Wonderful Dog to a good home

    We found Sheila (because she looks like a dingo) on the coast in Mar del Sur. Lots of dogs are left after the busy season in touristy areas--just a sad but true fact that there isn't much consciousness around animal control, castrating, etc. She wouldn't have survived the winter down there, so...

    What you don't see in Japan

    I think it's important to point out what you don't see happening in Japan that happens in other parts of the world. No looters. No one taking advantage of a broken store window. Let Japan be an example to the world to what is possible when people lack entitlement.

    Awesome Workout! BA Bootcamp

    Yesterday I went to Katrina's Bootcamp in Puerto Madero. http://www.bootcampbuenosaires.com/ I usually work out alone, but as I've been falling short of my fitness goals, I thought I would give this a try. It was fantastic! We had a diverse group of different levels of fitness and...

    Zona Norte

    I'm looking to connect with some expats in Zona Norte--I don't plan on getting into the city too often at the moment. I live near Unicenter--near my wife's family. Great neighborhood called Villa Adelina. I lived in Mendoza for 2 years, so I'm a bit of a wine-o. Saludos, Paul
