More and more Argentina reminds me of my homeland Russia. A lot of corruption there too. There people just pay judge or investigators to look the other way. Same here it seems...

My family fled to Argentina looking for a peaceful country in early 2023 where we could blend in away from all wars. My husband fled to not have to go fight in Ukraine. We wanted to be around others that wanted to live in a pacifist country. Then later that year Argentina elects a President...

The situation in the bakeries is very bad. I met a woman in Palermo that recently closed down her bakery. 25 years and she finally had to close. She said people don't have money like they did before. Very sad.

The biggest expenses is good schools here. Any school that speaks some English is about $1,000 per month per child and the English or British schools can be over double that price. Rental prices have also gone up. Don't come without a very stable job paying in foreign currency.

I wish I knew about this before. Sounds like a good business idea. I hate cleaning mine. Especially if the baby vomits it can be messy and needs a deep cleaning. @Silvia I recently purchased this on Mercado Lbre and it is excellent! This is what I use to clean my baby's stroller...

Quick question. I have been living here the past year and for the most part been able to avoid using inmobiliarias (realtors). I did the Airbnb and thing for a while but it is not ideal for long term rentals. I found a few on my own but most of the desirable properties are with a realtor...

I am doing all I can to make up for all the Argentines not drinking wine. My Russian friends and I are drinking as much wine as we can.

Wonderful to see the Russian community growing in Buenos Aires. More friends have been moving here. Very easy to blend in here.

Does anyone know if this is true or fake news? About China rejecting Argentina soybeans? I didn't see it in the news.

There are a lot of different type of people on this board. Seems like both sides exaggerate a little. Those expats and locals that are frustrated with inflation tend to exaggerate and say prices are up 8X and then you have other expats that moved here like @StatusNomadicus that claim no...

I also order ok. Things take 3-4 weeks. They have deals sometimes where if your order is over $100 it may come with free shipping. But it's not free because you must pay "import fees". Not all items are included for free shipping offer. If they don't qualify for free shipping then you pay...

Here everyone adjusts the rentals up with inflation. It depends what area you are in. There is more demand in popular parts of Palermo Hollywood or Soho. Also the area near Alto Palermo is very in demand. Many fellow Russians love that area. If you are paying in advance you should get some...

My friend put her dog under once and the dog die! Never do that! Terrible not better options.

Yes I learn Spanish before I come to BA. But it was different. They didn't pronounce the ll the same. It take me time but sometimes they very rude. My Spanish is ok but sometimes they very rude here. It not black or white issue. We travel to other smaller cities and people much nicer. We go...
