I don’t have a live in. I pay my maid 3500 pesos per hour to clean my apartment. She also will cook meals if I want. I have her come 3 times a week. She also will do my laundry. I sure do miss the supermarkets back home. I buy my own groceries.

Weekends it doesn’t seem like anyone works here! Can be frustrating. Also annoying many places don’t have websites. Many restaurants only use IG or even Facebook. LOL.

Call me crazy but it seemed like it was all a show. I could be wrong but Milei throws off gay vibes. Not that there is anything wrong with that…..

What are prices there like in Spain on these things?

WU rate is still 1.031 today so not too bad. Fallen a bit but still holding above 1,000.

The mosquitos are terrible this year. They are very bad in BA too. This isn’t normal. BA is even more late night than Uruguay so be prepared. They party all night here.

Can I also get this info?

The difference between the front and the back of the building is remarkable with noise. Sounds echo here in the city. Best to rent on a street that isn’t busy. Many owners want you to pay monthly expenses. Be careful some are going up drastically.

I didn’t know when I moved here about the Cuevas so I was sending to Western Union and getting pesos and then going to buy dollars at the exchange houses but I was losing too much. My Airbnb owner introduced me to her contact and I have been using them. But there is a trust factor involved...

Just a note that most likely on Grabr no one is going to bring anything big or bulky. I tried to have someone bring me an iMac and I couldn’t get any takers. That is for smaller items.

Maids are so crazy cheap here. They are only about $2 USD per hour here. Wish it was like this back home. For these prices you can have a mansion and never clean yourself.

It all depends on how much you will spend. The answer will be different for each person. If you’re going to be here for any length of time you will probably hit WU a few times. $20 worth of ATM isn’t too much. Probably better to bring some cash and put it in the safe and just exchange...

I wouldn’t say you need to avoid La Boca. It is maybe worth visiting once but I think what people are saying is you most likely won’t be spending a lot of time there. It’s kind of a touristy trap type of place. You do have to watch your phone or camera in that area but you shouldn’t have...

I heard in Colombia getting drugged can easily happpen as a female. In BA never heard of anyone having this happen and some of my friends have been living here for 10 years. BA is very safe.

Can I ask how much this property sold for? Feel free to send me a DM if you can’t post publicly.

I agree! Feels more expensive everyday to me. This trend I am told could last a while.

You will love BA! It’s very easy to stay here for 3 months and then you can extend by crossing the border. They have a ferry to Uruguay and you can get another 3 months. I have met people doing this for years.

Looks really fun. I will see if I can get tickets to this.

Yes it tastes bitter as many places use poor quality coffee beans covered in burned sugar. Just horrible. It is outlawed in many countries but they seem to like it here in Argentina.
