Despite the economic situation, Argentina continues to be a place where many foreigners choose to live. Why? Because, beyond the challenges, the warmth of the people, the unique culture, and the way we live make this country special. From the passion for football to the food, there’s always...
Another dismissal in Milei's cabinet: Javier Milei fired Diana Mondino for voting in favor of Cuba at the UN. He found out around 3 p.m., asked for an explanation, and then decided to dismiss her.
With her dismissal, the total has now reached 51 people, mostly fired with a few resignations. I...

The government has just announced that starting in September, it will stop subsidizing buses in Buenos Aires. This could be very negative for people who rely on this transportation to get to work every day. If companies don’t take responsibility, the users will end up paying the consequences...
Here, people are very religious. Just like the passion for soccer, there's also a deep devotion to the most popular saints. This one is especially significant because Argentina is going through a severe crisis with high unemployment. Hope is the last thing we lose.
