Argentina is among the happiest countries in the world! Out of 147 countries, it ranks 42nd. I can confirm that life here is truly happy, happiness isn’t about wealth but about connections, relationships, and community. I’ve lived in several countries, and I have to say, this is the best one...

A great discovery that deserves to be shared. The place isn’t very large, but it has space and tables outside on the sidewalk. The waiters are very friendly. It’s a tapas bar with appetizers and draft cider. The mushroom-filled chipá deserves a medal of honor; it’s a delight. I’ve been several...

Hello! As a digital nomad for many years I have used NordVPN and it has never failed me. https://nordvpn.com/es-mx/special/?utm_medium=affiliate&utm_term=&utm_content&utm_campaign=off15&utm_source=aff70284

There was a great post about some good quality steak by this poster yesterday. https://www.expatsba.com/threads/rep%C3%BAblica-del-fuego.1795/#post-11236

Sad to see about this.

One of the girls that I met in a group dinner did this. She loved it. It's way too expensive for me.

Ohhh ok got it. I'm new to this overstay business. I never talked to anyone that had problems. Where did you hear about this? Did you talk to anyone this happened to? Most of the perma-tourists that I'm meeting have been staying in Argentina without leaving for up to 2 years. So I guess...

Thank you! How did you find this? Many times I just go where it looks busy in non-touristy areas. How big were the portions? I assume this is it? The reviews are very good! Thank you for taking the time to post the review. https://maps.app.goo.gl/VcV6cCAoTcHfL8U48

At least if President Milei is not successful he can try to argue that all the changes he was trying to do were blocked. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-68166604

What kind of "overstay".

All depends on how nice of a place you have and location. By far the biggest expense is rent. I am spending about $1,900 US a month including rent, dining out and everything else. That includes my US cellphone plan. I checked into maybe getting insurance but it is getting expensive now so I...

No way you will find a peso rent. After the election, most people are only renting in US dollars. What I did was I would first make sure I liked the apartment and that the internet worked well. Then you can offer the owner to rent long term. I did this with a local and although they already...

Yes I did this a few months ago. You have to call into Western Union. I called a 800 toll free # and had to give them the transaction MTCN # and they said they would cancel it but it took about 14 days for me to see it back in my account. I got a refund back to my debit card. Of course if...

So like, around 30% happens randomly in real life, you know, hitting up bars, parks, music shows, clubs, all that jazz. Another 30% goes down in meetups, Mundolingo is my go-to (tons of locals itching to practice English, you feel me?). And the leftover chunk? Well, that's Bumble's playground...

Haha, if we were to go by the criteria of the US Census Bureau, it might be amusing. Interestingly, in the US, due to several challenging experiences, I've steered clear of pursuing relationships with white Americans. I've found that I, being perceived as too foreign or not "white" enough, don't...
