    Travel Purchasing an eSim for data only for cellphone for Argentina visit

    Thank you! This is a new concept for me as an American. I saw some YouTube videos to better understand it. It sounds like a social activity. But is getting germs and passing them around safe? I can't imagine during COVID or maybe even since that this is a popular habit of passing around a...

    Wow! This is the hotel I'm staying at in Recoleta! The Algodon Mansion. I didn't know they were in Michelin Guide. I feel even better about my trip. It wasn't cheap but it looked beautiful and I heard that area was the best. The rooms all look very big.
