I traded books in English/Spanish and even German at one of the stalls selling/buying books in Plaza Italia, you should give it a go.

Mmm...the cradle of culture in Europe could be either Greece or Italy as France's first city (Marseille) was founded by Greek colonizers around the year 600 before Christ. Thank god Nuuu Yawwk.city. is called the "gateway for immigration to the US" on Wikipedia: I am pretty sure all foreigners...

To be honest with you I don't think I am going to change my mind about condemning corruption and favoritism because otherwise people might label me as a racist person against one people's culture...if that's what you like about Argentina you are absolutely free to say that, personally I have a...

You could also make hummous with red peppers and tzatziki, they are pretty easy to prepare too.

Honour acknowledged and paid back: you are also allowed to be in my country so come and visit whenever you want ;)

It is not the culture I don't like here, it is just the lack of it...;)

In my experience I have never found an ATM with no cash so far, not a single time (I probably withdraw money once every 3 weeks or so), I always choose international banks and their ATMs are always able to dispense cash. I am not going to open a bank account as I am leaving soon, but that's...

Pretty ugly crowd there...you should go to Amerika instead!

I think it makes sense that expats don't lodge their money in Argentinian bank accounts...they can't open one in the 1st place!

Me too! I don't find tango boring...that would be a real understatement...

A) Kind of randomly... B) It took my ex a very long time to convince them that the netbook he was going to bring into the country would leave the country when he was leaving it too, basically it is just a pain in the neck to import anything into here, it doesn't matter if it is used or not...

As I was saying Lavazza does the same: actually a cup of coffee made with its machine at home turns out to be more expensive than a cup of coffee purchased in a cafeteria, which is kind of ridiculous for Italy as a cup of coffee in a cafeteria costs around 80 cents...

It looks nice, how much are the capsules? In Italy Lavazza usually give you the machine for free as you are then forced to buy their very own capsules as the machine only works with those! What is the story here? Can you use the Nescafe' machine with different capsules or do you have to stick to...

They are pretty good, it all depends where you come from. I am originally from Italy and I think tomatoes taste better there, but I also lived a long time in Ireland and tomatoes really suck on the island...

I know for sure they sell yoga mats in the Megatlon gym I go to (Almagro), I am not sure how much they are as I have my own one, but I can pass by tomorrow and check.

I live in Almagro too and I am pretty happy with the neighbourhood as it has much more character and flair than the previous neighbourhood I was living in (Palermo.) You have the Subte passing through Corrientes (B line), plus good bus connections and it is a really nice neighbourhood to walk...

Linea fija.

My friend was told that they never counterfeit 2-peso-notes, but I am pretty sure they do as it is the most used denomination!

It is not uncommon to find the same signs in Greece as the sewage system in many places (mostly on the smaller islands) is a bit antiquate...I used to live on an island and I would never throw the used toilet paper into the bin. Every single time there was a strong downpour the whole city would...

Are you talking about Las Paez? I know for sure they have a shop in Calle Florida (towards Corrientes if I am not wrong), maybe they have one in Recoleta too? Check out their site, they might have what you are looking for: http://www.laspaez.com.ar/laspaez.html
