    Indoor football (=soccer), anyone?

    Hi, A couple of months ago I went to a very cool place where you have about ten small football fields inside a big warehouse-like building. Although not a good player it s a lot of fun to play on these tiny indoor fields and I d like to reproduce the experience. Most of the people I played with...

    LCD Soundsystem 2/23

    Thanks for brigging this to my knowledge, this is awesome. I saw them only once about 4 years ago and even if they were only opening for someone else it was really good. As for the Groove I m not sure but I think it s a medium-sized venue which is perfect. I can t wait to see this show, it s...

    Thai rice in B.A.?

    Now that I ve spent almost two hours browsing the infamous "pizza thread" (that digressed in a kind of interesting debate on food quality and divertisty in B.A.) I dare to spark another fierce debate with this simple question: Where can I find good rice in B.A.? I haven t been here for a long...

    Rio de Janeiro in early January

    I'm planning a trip to Rio during the first 10 days of January. My main concern is the sleeping options. I have the Lonely Planet but I'd like to know if you have some tips in the "budget" range. Hostels are a posibilty as long as they offer private rooms for two. If you have some insights on...

    Hiking in Patagonia

    I'm also planning a hike in Patagonia during the summer. I have quality gear (including a three season tent that weights 1,6Kg) and a bit of experience on major European trails. Do you think I can plan a 7 to 10 hike without a guide? Is Fitz Roy the best spot for such a hike?

    Shipping a macbook from D.C to B.A

    Well thank you for your replies, I won't take this risk and will buy one in Europe before flying to B.A. (I wanted to buy from the American refurb store, ship to an American friend who would have shipped it to me in Argentina then...).

    Argentina: the most beautiful country in the world (webdoc)

    I can't see your point here. Only because you shoot a documentary on poor people it's suppose to be some rubbish to make the well-off feel confortable? What seems interesting in this documentary is that it intends to show how badly a country is hurt in the long run after a crisis and how it...

    Argentina: the most beautiful country in the world (webdoc)

    Franco-german channel Arte has a long tradition of producing quality documentaries and today released the trailer for its latest webdoc called "Argentina: the most beautiful country in the world". The title is quite ironic because the film seems to be mainly about the crisis and how poor...

    France's crackdown on Romas continue, hundreds deported

    I don't think previous French Presidents did that before in the post-WWII era, that's why so many French people as well as foreigners are outraged. Our previous presidents had more an image of "wise men" that never compromised with far-right ideas for political purpose. Sarkozy does that and...

    France's crackdown on Romas continue, hundreds deported

    I noticed that debates on this "Romas issue in France" never go anywhere but to Godwin point (which has not been reached yet here). Anyways, I think it's important to highlight a few facts, wether you believe it's legal or moral. Romas have been in France for years. Some steal, some beg, some...

    Watching Champion's League in BA

    That's right, but I'd be happy to watch some Barcelone/Chelsea/MU/Real games too. FrenchJurist> I'd say Barcelona or Chelsea will win. I think the Catalans will have an easy Liga championship (they already won?) and might be surprised by some teams in the knockout stage of the Champion's...
