Wow that is SOME view! Congrats on that flip. It sounds like a great rental apartment. I saw many units in that building. Is that the building with the blue glass facade? I am trying to rent there for my last few weeks. @BuySellBA are there any more 2 bedroom units in this building listed...

Food porn is a real thing! How nice to go from resenting good food to soon enjoying it. Let me know how things turn out with your boyfriend. If he won't go with you, I'd gladly go in his place! I have to warn you, I'm not a Che fan but you can convince me otherwise while we are eating amazing...

Wow! I LOVE this rental. I walked by this area the other day. I went on the Airbnb and I see it's not available it shows for the foreseeable future. When did you stay? Maybe the website calendar is not accurate? I'd like to book this.

Fabulous Zoom! I pictured you different @earlyretirement I was expecting you older as well. You were amongst some great company. I know the other CEO from a conference I went to before. I thought the other Michael was very dry and boring and too industry specific. You were very articulate...

I've noticed that Infobae consistently provides the quickest updates, with others usually catching up within an hour. When checking La Nación and Clarin, it's advisable to focus on their daily articles rather than relying on the numbers displayed in the banner at the top. However, there's an...

The law is you can bring up to $10,000 US dollars per person before having to declare it. I just carried it in my money belt. $10,000 surprisingly doesn't take up that much room.

If your stay extends beyond 30 days, recharging with Claro should be more cost-effective. I'm also using a tourist SIM and registered on the Mi Claro website for added convenience in managing packages and monitoring data usage. During my last recharge, I obtained 15GB for 30 days, along with...

I likely discovered Airalo through the Facebook groups. As someone who heavily relies on reviews and Google star ratings—finding a restaurant with a 4.0 instead of a 4.5 gives me pause—the impressive 4.6-star rating in the Google Play Store, coupled with over 1 million downloads, convinced me to...

Speaking for myself, I'm not actively endorsing Airalo or any other provider. My first experience with Airalo was during a trip to Colonia two weeks ago, marking my initial use of an eSIM. Despite my initial uncertainty, I managed to figure it out, and it worked seamlessly. However, I generally...

Think about Airalo, a highly-rated travel eSIM provider available in the app store. While I currently use a physical SIM in BA, I've successfully used Airalo for short trips to Uruguay without any issues. Recently, a friend visiting BA from the U.S. had a positive experience with Airalo for the...

I have only been in Buenos Aires a few weeks but so far I think it's perfect and understand why so many of you Expats have chosen it to be your home. I don't think the "party" will end. I believe the party will become much more enjoyable, despite a potential noticeable increase in prices...

I've been here the past few weeks. You are WAY over thinking this issue. Stop stressing about this matter. Currency exchange places are everywhere and no worries about exchanging. I overstressed this along with many other things including safety. This feels safer than any European city and...

I don't think 90 minutes is enough to depend on making some pre-determined time. I wouldn't book anything ahead. It's fairly cheap to get to the city from the airport. Even in a private transportation I only paid around $22 US in a private car. I think earlyretirement's advice is correct and...

I haven't heard of Beach Club. From what I heard, Buenos Aires used to have many "clubs" of all sorts but most were closed down several years ago. I am not sure if 90% is accurate. Most restaurants I go into or stores people speak some English. Also, I have met many educated Argentines and...

My Airbnb host recommended this company - https://www.cafedelivery.com/ They can grind the beans for you if you want. I'm personally happy with a French press. Or just a drip coffee if the beans are Colombian beans or decent beans.

I believe that contracts in foreign currency are legally binding in Argentina, and even bank mortgages denominated in Dollars, requiring repayment in Dollars, have been upheld by the local courts. For many expats, an optimal scenario involves a rental agreement in Dollars with payments made...

Which banks ATMs are trustworthy not to swallow your card? I had a friend that visited Buenos Aires and they were at a HSBC machine and the machine retained his card and he said it was a nightmare to get it back. It took a few days. He couldn't just get it from the bank branch. They made some...

I have only been yesterday but the food was great! I think one of my favorite meals so far in Buenos Aires the past few weeks. What is your favorite dish there Darksider? We got a bunch of stuff including salad and everything tasted so fresh. In Canada we don't have fresh vegetables and...

Happy birthday Darksider! To your wife too. I went to Don Julio 2 weeks ago and it was very very good. However, the prices are much higher than other places. I'm not sure if the steak was 100% better than the other places I went. I went to El Preferido de Palermo and it was very good. Maybe...

I just had a date here for lunch yesterday! She loved it! She had never been here before. The food was amazing. You are right, those were the best french fries I ever had. The only downside is they had no ketchup! I can't eat fries without ketchup but they sure were good!
