    If your boss is picking up the tab, Lincoln might be cool if you're into that whole US public school vibe. But seriously, there are tons of bilingual schools that won't break the bank and still rock.

    For Sale Who are buying apartment and homes in Buenos Aires? Prices seem high relative to wages.

    I've never met ANY Argentine with a mortgage. They are almost non-existent here. Some architects I know have secured short bridge loans to renovate and subsequently sell a property within 1 or 2 years. However, the norm for the average person is to pay in cash. Like literally $100 US bills...
