Totally understand your concerns, moving a teenager is a huge emotional leap, not just a logistical one. We made the move with our teenage daughter a few years ago, and I’ll be honest, the first couple of months were rough. She went from being super social in the U.S. to feeling isolated here...

I’ve read that this is hitting tourism really hard, locals are practically begging for the snow to finally arrive. Meteorologists say it might come this weekend, but so far it’s been a really bad and sad season for them...

I loved it! Super entertaining and actually helped me understand some of the chaos of the 90s here, convertibility, privatizations, all that. Plus, the guy playing Menem nailed the voice 😄

Hey everyone! I’m based in Palermo with my wife, who’s totally into anything artsy, she loves crafts, handmade stuff, pottery, all that. She’s been talking about finding a ceramic or pottery workshop where she can learn and get her hands dirty. We’re in Palermo, but she’s totally fine with...

In the U.S. we don’t have anything like the “aguinaldo”, those mandatory extra payments twice a year. Bonuses depend on the company and they’re not required by law. That’s a major difference! Good for employees in Argentina, now I get why everyone was so excited about the famous aguinaldo. LOL.

I did a 5-day trip to Rio and honestly, with a budget airline and some planning, I spent less than a long weekend in Bariloche. Brazil always hits the spot, warm weather, good food, beach.

This is getting really intense. Elon dropping these kinds of public accusations is a major shift, especially since he was one of the biggest business backers of Trump during much of his campaign. But yeah, challenging Elon publicly definitely comes with consequences… and now it looks like he’s...

Speaking of numbers and statistics, INDEC published today the poverty rate, which by the way, has decreased significantly, it went from 52.9% to 38.1%.. although for many it’s still a struggle, I believe we’re on the right track...

In fact, living without a car in Buenos Aires is often easier than with one. Parking spots are hard to come by! The city has an excellent public transportation system, including buses that run all day, as well as trains and the Metro, making it very convenient to get around.

I was in Mendoza a few months ago and had an amazing time, especially at the Termas de Cacheuta, such a great experience, highly recommended. I loved it so much that I want to go back. This year, I also want to visit Córdoba, I’ve heard it’s a beautiful place.

I never stay in Palermo, if I’m traveling all this way, I don’t want to be surrounded by tourists. Also, Airbnb hosts who take cash in dollars? Always a plus!

I don't believe it; the clothes here are unaffordable, and in fact, the clothing sector is the most expensive. But you'll see that even something as simple as having a coffee or buying chocolate is cheaper in Europe.

I believe ChatGPT is one of the best options. Here's a list of the most used apps, and in the case of Duolingo, the paid version is the one that really works. I hope this helps! 1) Duolingo 2) Babbel 3) Memrise 4) Lingoda 5) Quizlet

Are there really tickets available, or is it resale? I have friends who bought their tickets during the presale in November 2024, and supposedly they sold out in just a few minutes. Here, Argentinians go crazy to be in theCampo, but they think they experience it differently. It’s always been...

A Taste of Australia in the City, Surry Hills Coffee is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, you get that laid-back vibe and attention to detail that instantly transports you to an Australian café. The real standout here is the specialty coffee, perfectly crafted, and the matcha, easily...
