My friends were in Rio prior to coming to CABA. They were not impressed with Cristo Rendentor (for having the status of the 7 Wonders of the New World). They said they liked Buenos Aires especially asado and wine but found the city in general quite expensive. I made a mistake by bringing them...

We live in CABA, aka the bubble. But the rest of my partner's family lives out there in the 'jungle'. My staying here is a bit complicated. Is it alright? Yeah, I am used to it. I've been coming here for the past 15 years, so I'm used to it to a certain extent, but would life be more fun and...

My first South America trip was actually to Brazil. I remember going to a shopping mall and saw the prices of electronics in Sao Paolo and Rio and felt that it was so expensive. This was back in 2007-2008. What shocked me even more was when I saw that people paid for clothes in instalments. We...

Electronics are ridiculously expensive and janky here. And I refuse to buy clothes in Argentina. A few months ago I needed some shirts and when I looked at the price, I was like...you gotta be kidding me. The cheapest decent shirt I found at the mall was like 30K-ish. A basic Zara shirt costs...

When crime is so prevalent in this country, I don't think it's a grudge but a common occurrence which is sad. I don't know if I resent living here but life back home is definitely much easier and safer. I'm here for the time being so we shall see what happens. A couple of my friends visited...

I mentioned a few months ago that my partner's police officer sister was robbed at gunpoint and her car was taken. Guess what? Last month, the same thing happened to my partner's brother in law while he was driving Didi. People don't rob your car like that where I come from. And here two people...

Just about anywhere in general. You just go. You'd never have to think that oh this 'hood is dangerous etc. And the fact that there are still lockers in front of supermarkets and shops and you can't bring your bags in or you have to show that your bags are empty at check-out still bothers me. We...

Over there, a simple walk at any time, day or night, anywhere is safe, which is somehow considered a luxury here. I've been here for a while, but I'm still not used to that idea.

That's really strange. I've never heard of anything like that happening at that hotel before, and it's right in the middle of everything. I've been to the bar in the basement there a few times, and it's very nice.

More info on the visa.

In case anyone is interested in this new visa program, Digital Nomad included, announced yesterday by Thailand.

If you're married to a local, you can definitely do it yourself. For PR, it can be quite frustrating because you deal directly with people at migraciones and boy don't they love creating problems for you but I did it all myself with my partner's help of course and I got it in 7 months. For...

You already have a powerful passport so there is no need for it if you have PR. My passport, on the other hand, is weak so it makes more sense for me to get the citizenship. The language test isn't applicable anymore. However, while sifting through a bunch of random expedientes, I came across a...

Yes, I got my PR since April and it took 7 months. Now I'm more than half way through my citizenship process so let's see. Hopefully within this year there will be good news.

I figured out how to search with names. Instead of 'Por expediente', choose 'Por parte' and put any names you wish you search and everything will come up.

It was actually 9 months for her. The 6 months was another one, a guy I think, that I stumbled on while randomly looking through the site but I don't have his expediente.

I'm not sure how they searched with family names. What I do is search with random expediente numbers just to compare notes with my case.

Once you enter the website, choose CCF and put the expediente number and year in. Search expediente number 12264/2023 and you will see that this Russian woman having a child here already received her sentencia in 9 months for citizenship. I've seen another expediente of another Russian that only...

I can't speak for those having anchor babies here (I think it's easy if you hire a lawyer. A Russian woman's case I saw on juzgado website only took her 6 months to get her citizenship and only a few months for PR) but even if you marry an Argentine, it is still complicated. It took me 4-5 trips...
