This is true @TonyTigre. I haven't checked out exchange rates in a while. The last time I did it was around 1000 to $1. Now I see it hit 1440 to $1 in 2 months. I guess it's time to visit Argentina again! I would assume that inflation will get bad again? None of the people I met there saved...

That is sad to hear about how bad the economy is but I think most locals blame the government not the tourists. Tourists help out the economy. I was surprised with how many expats were living in San Telmo. I think the difference is that many of the locals in San Telmo seemed more of the starving...

This is comparable to salaries in Brazil. I have a friend in retail there and she earns about this. Although I think the cost of living in BA is more.

Many things are already changing there. My Porteño friend in BA is having all kinds of issues lately. She sells stuff online and was getting payments via Western Union for years with no issues. I don't think she was declaring the income to the tax authority there. Western Union was hassling all...

Very true!

Thanks. I hope the test came up negative.

I thought Buenos Aires was one of the best cities for gays and lesbians. This is surprising to read about. All my lesbian friends love BA. They were surprised when I sent them this.

Reminds me of one of my dads friends. One of the smartest guys I ever met. But he always feels the need to use the F word and he is always using foul language and everyone automatically assumes the guy is an idiot. A shame too.

Yeah my Airbnb toilet was also leaking.

I don't know about Peru as a choice. It sounds like a lot of chaos there this past year. I flew through Lima earlier this year and everything was shut down. The police were even checking each Uber to get into the airport.

I totally agree! I'm sorry to hear about your loss. But I think you're just distraught. I'm not saying it's impossible to work out and I hope I am wrong but you are here asking for advice. I hope the visit goes well.

I think the media covered this in detail previously. In great detail from what I see online. You know? If you're cool with just tossing out quick remarks without diving into the nitty-gritty of those countless articles, interviews, and thoughts from people who were in the mix when they were...

I can't remember the name of the restaurant but if you go upstairs to the top of the food court in the Paseo al Corta shopping mall there is a super nice food court. There is a pizza place there that has really amazing pizza! I was very surprised to see such a nice food court. I went two...

@Darksider415 I second Guerrin! It's an experience and I always get the same waiter there. Ask for Diego! Bar Roma is also totally decent pizza. I don't really like near Scalabrini Ortiz in that area. Sometimes at night it can still get sketchy in that area. I've never had issues but one...

I live in Southern California in Newport Beach. I own my property with NO mortgage. But I still have to also pay my property taxes which is hefty, my home. owners expenses, insurance and it ALL adds up. My car is all paid off so at least I don't have that expense but insurance, gas, etc. is...
