I've got to cover some expenses and as a result I'm going to sell my new (I bought it in April) Sony Cyber-Shot DSCHx7V digital camera. It's essentially the best digital camera on the market right now and I'm willing to part with it for $250US. This is almost half of what you'll pay for this...

Hey everyone - thanks for reading the post! I'm having some trouble... It's MUCH harder than I thought it would be to track down a used bike for a good price... Anyone have any ideas or connections? I grew up riding all types of bikes, and despite the fact that the streets aren't very...

Hey there. I'm living in VIlla Crespo, I'm from San Diego - and I arrived almost exactly a week before you. Let me know if you want to meet up for some coffee, or just cruise around Palermo to get a better grasp of the area! -SR

Buy a mac. The resale value here, when you're done traveling will be more than you originally purchased it for - if you keep it in good condition. Don't bring a machine that needs to be fixed, the prices here for electronics or electronic repairs are out of control. Good luck!

Hi everyone, First of all, thanks for taking the time to read this post. I've been down here for almost a week now and I'm finding that my iPhone won't suffice - for many many reasons. So, I'm looking to get a cheap phone in the meantime, that way I can just buy the chip/minutes...

Hey everyone! I'm Sean-Ryan, I just arrived two days ago and I'm staying at a hostel in Palermo Soho while I look for housing in the area (a room to share). In an attempt to get a grasp on this city I took a 3 hour walk and I feel like I haven't even put a dent in it... Which is great! If...

Thank you for all of your help everyone. I've packed some extra shoes, a nice/new flannel sheet, some over-the-counter medicine, and an extra Patagonia jacket to prepare for July. I'll be arriving in the Palermo area on Wednesday. I'm traveling very light... I've just got a large framed pack...

Hi everyone, I'm flying into BsAs from San Diego, California in just over a week! (Living in Palermo) I wanted to post a thread and see if anyone had any last minute advice on things to bring... I'm packing warm layered clothing (and jackets), a camera, my new Macbook Pro, my iPhone, etc...

Great post. Thanks for sharing!

I'm moving to BsAs April 27th. I'm a 24 year old University graduate from California. I've got a year experience in the finance field and I'll be looking to better my Spanish and find work while I'm in BsAs. I'm honest, responsible, kind, VERY CLEAN, and easy going. I'd be happy to chat on...

Thanks everyone for your posts! I'm going to stay at +1 Hostel in Palermo, as it came highly recommended by a few people that PM'd me, and some review forums. I've reserved it for a week beginning the 27th of April and the stay is VERY inexpensive. On another note, I'm having some trouble...

Thanks for all the great responses! I'm getting in on the morning of the 27th and looking to give myself a few days at a hostel before I make my decision. Any recommendations for a safe/inexpensive hostel in a good, central location?

Great advice! I love this community!

Hi everyone, Last week I posted a thread in order to gain a better understanding of the work environment, lifestyle, etc. prior to my April 26th departure from San Diego, California to BsAs. Your responses have all been very honest and helpful and I appreciate all of the time you've each...

Hey Ricky I am from Socal myself (San Diego). I'll be moving down on the 26th of April. Lets grab a beer. Hope you're enjoying yourself down South!

I'm coming down April 26th and I look forward to being in a similar state of confusion/happiness/unfamiliarity! Hope you ease into things well : )

Thanks everyone for your responses. I appreciate the time you've all taken to share your thoughts, and even more so I apprecaite your honesty. I couldn't ask for any more from such a helpful community. My round trip ticket is purchased, so this trip IS happening. Any insight into what...
