    anyone traveling to NYC?

    Yikes. I mean it's good advice lol but a little rude. On the flip side, it also takes enormous trust on my part to hand over my things to a stranger, pay them, and just cross my fingers my stuff arrives. Regardless, I'll be sure to strike you off the list of potentials ;)

    Am I the only person in Argentina that finds the term "chinito" offensive?

    As always, you are free to do and think how you please. As always, there are consequences to all these things. By the way, censorship isn't the same thing as evolving and growing as an individual. It is conceivable that people could learn, grow, and willingly choose to do and be better. Here...

    Am I the only person in Argentina that finds the term "chinito" offensive?

    This is a false equivalent. As a society, we can either move toward equality, fairness, and respect for all or we can choose not to. Choose being the operative word. You choose the words you use. You can use racist words or you can make the choice not to. This is a lesson most learn in...

    Am I the only person in Argentina that finds the term "chinito" offensive?

    Agreed! I always correct them, particularly if they are using offensive words in English, but also in Spanish. I was born to Lat Am parents and don't view 'difference' as an excuse to be casually racist. Pointing out people's supposed 'differences' is more about keeping alive the fantasy of...

    Moving and confused!

    Hi! I didn't need a lawyer. We filed thru radex and paid the fee to speed up the process (not sure if it helped, really) and what I was told was that it essentially makes it irrelevant because you're no longer a tourist. I actually received my precaria online a few days ago (maybe 2-3 weeks...
