00:20 - Why We Moved To Argentina
02:20 - Why We Left
🌎 Explore the highs and lows of living in Argentina as we share our journey of why we decided to leave the country before the one-year mark. Despite having legal residency and falling in love with the rich culture and mouthwatering cuisine, there were challenges that led us to make this tough decision.
🎵 In this video, we delve into two main reasons that initially drew us to Argentina: the cultural powerhouse it is in the Spanish-speaking world, boasting incredible music, art, and film, and the unmatched culinary experience with asado, empanadas, locro, and dulce de leche.
🍽️ Discover why Argentinian food captured our hearts as the best in the Western world and how easy it is to find delicious meals at any local spot. We spill the beans on our favorite dishes and why we believe Argentina stands out.
📉 However, it's essential to address the harsh realities we encountered, particularly related to hyperinflation. From demotivated workforces to the impact on the social fabric, we share our observations on how economic challenges affected our day-to-day experiences in Argentina.
👥 Join us as we discuss the unique social dynamics we encountered, including language barriers and the struggle to connect with the local community amidst economic difficulties.
💔 Ultimately, our decision to leave was driven by a desire for practicality and efficiency, values we hold dear. We present an honest and unfiltered view of Argentina, highlighting both the positives and negatives, to help others considering a similar journey.
👉 If you're contemplating a move or just curious about life in Argentina, this video provides valuable insights into the real experiences of living in this vibrant but complex country. Like, share, and subscribe for more candid discussions about life abroad!

Argentina is one of the best countries on the planet
This video made me subscribe mate, really like how you just tell like like it is with no filter (in a nice way). You are giving the people what they want
Thanks man!
I'm from India. I've always loved Argentina for its culture and football. Especially Tango, which I've always wanted to learn. It feels bad to see Argentina going through these tough times. I hope they find a way to shine, I really want to see them win. God bless Argentina. ♡
Good bless you brother
I'm moving to Buenos Aires in fourteen months. Can't wait to live someplace where I don't need a car.
Hope you enjoy it!
It's a dump and the people are all miserable.
Japan would be great for that!
That's quite a projection. 14 months is a long time.
@@dialecticalmonist3405 Not when you're almost sixty. )
Insightful video. Thanks.
Thanks!
you are 100% right , I'm from Argentina but living in USA for 40 y already and I know for a fact that the constantly complaning about money of the people in Argentina can be overwhelmed...hope for the best of such great country!
Yeah, let's hope for the best.
It will come here soon enough. $ 34 trillion in debt. The US has never seen what is coming and probably in the next 10 years
USA is awful in comparison. 😂 I've also lived in US for 30+ years
@@yaimavolThe US doesn't have a culture of money mismanagement, corruption, deception and amiguismo. This is what has destroyed the Argentine economy.
Being a US expat of almost 20 years in Argentina.... I get you man. The insecurity here is UNBELIVEBLE, and beyond the imagination of most US citizens. The inflation is beyond the imagination of most US citizens!!! If the same thing was happening in the US, they would be certain that the world is coming to an end. After almost 20 years in Argentina, I'm looking at the possibility of moving back to the US, after decades of living through such uncertainty. BUT, it has become unbearable. The insecurity, the inflation, the CRAZY exchange rate.... I'm exhausted after 20 years of this.
My debut trip to Argentina is planned, just as a tourist... I'm very excited.
Interesting to hear how got on living there. You seem fairly self aware and honest, which is rare on RUclips.
Enjoy the trip! Argentina is one of my favorite spots in the world.
Thankyou for your video and honesty! I am looking at different places to go, your mention especially of music really interests me as I love it. I have also spent a lot of time in Sth East Asian countries where many of my local friends and people I know don't earn much but the things we participate in together don't cost much money. This is good to know though as maybe things i would do with friends in Argentina like go to see live music might be prohibitive there to many people due to the cost? Thankyou for making we think about this, its really helpful.
Suerte, amigo.
Siempre Sos Bienvenido aquí en Argentina.
Abrazo desde ciudad de Olavarría, centro de la Provincia de Buenos Aires.
Abrazos
The video was cut in the end in case its not intentional. Thanks for the honesty!
Haha! Ran out of of good dialogue so did a sudden ending
good video man, all fair points
Glad you enjoyed it.
0:30 just to clarify, as a mexican I dont “hate”you for saying any of that, why would I. you’re just giving us your personal opinion, these are all not real facts but subjective arguments, everyone has their own opinions. by definition an opinion cannot be wrong. And I do also think argentina has a very unique and rich culture like all other countries in latam. Great video, Saludos!
...sadly I'd say 90% of the world's population isn't this sophisticated. Take my parents for example. They heard that an Australian commented about the US being too crowded and having too much traffic. Their immediate reaction "well they should get out of our country (the US) and go back to Australia! We don't need those people coming here."
Time to visit Argentina!
lol lol - welcome to the channel, man!
Thanks for your honesty
Always!
Thank you for your honesty 🙏🏼
Always! Thanks!
@@NearShoreLiving If you lived in BA, What part of town did you live in? Is San Telmo a good area for an American to live in?
@@SenorJuan2023
I've stayed in a few places in around BA.
San Telmo is a bit run down in my opinion also has some issues with Bats if you're in a high rise (no joke).
It depends on what you're looking for that being said, stick to the north of San Telmo (or San telmo is ok-ish) and you'll be fine and have fun.
Def Colegiales, recoleta, etc are really nice places to live.
Los que hablamos español somos afortunados. El español es un pasaporte para viajar y conocer la cultura de tantos países. Pero es difícil acompañar a otros en sus sufrimientos cuando no los compartimos. Ojalá tú (y quizá yo) podamos volver allí cuando las cosas se calmen y se arreglen. Te deseo buena suerte, seguridad y alegría en tus viajes. Daniel
My dude. I absolutely appreciate the complete and open honesty. The way you explained the overall general attitude towards work because of how beat down by the govt makes sense. I think I would feel the same things you felt
Where are you off to next? And do you think I, or anyone else, would experience these same things in Chile or Uruguay?
I'm going to make some videos of my next (current) destination soon, I've just been drowning in my own calendar at the moment.
But I'm out in Asia again.
I feel like everyone experiences places differently. What I like about some places are what other ppl hate and vice versa. I feel like an open mind to adventure is always the best policy.
@@NearShoreLiving well said as always. Looking forward to the next videos. Have a blast!
Honesto en tus argumentos.
Y por eso te lo digo asi: existen muchos de nosotros que estamos dispuestos a cambiar esta realidad. Saludos
suerte y espero lo mejor para Argentina!
LOVE YOUR CHAT !
I was thinking of moving to Buenos Aires and this is sort of what I was thinking based on the information online.
Where are you right now? It's not Argentina right?
Will make a video on it soon!
Thanks for the video! What's about safety in Argentina this days? Has it crumbled due to the crisis?
This is just my opinion but the bad parts of the country are getting worst and the nice parts of the country are getting smaller.
That being said it still remains significantly safer than say Mexico or Colombia.
Which area is safest in Buenos Aires?
Eh. I think Argentine culture is interesting and part of the reason why I've wanted to visit Argentina. But Spain and Mexico also have had great artists, musicians/bands, etc. In fact some of my favorite are from those 2 countries. Argentina is sort of the 3rd leg. I do like some of their films and series absolutely. Unfortunately because their Spanish is less diffused than Spanish from Mexico and Spain, most Spanish speakers are not used to these (and their media presence globally hasn't traditionally been huge compared to Mexico and Spain). They gotta work on their distribution.
In terms food, all subjective. I'm not a big meat eater, so I probably wouldn't find living there day to day very appealing. Mexico has a lot of the same foods Argentina has, just more diversity.
One thing that is on point is when he mentioned older Argentines are very cosmopolitan and highly educated--like any first world country. A lot of it a legacy of its wealthy past and focus on universal education early on. That created an educated society on a par with any developed nation. Unfortunately its these you often see that have moved abroad. Brain drain is an issue. Wherever they go though, you usually find them in professional positions and settings.
I had the same experience, lived there for 6 months. Fucking great place that is a fucking mess, it’s sad.
Thanks for the video was really informative. How did you get the residency in argentina in the first place?
the nerd is back again
Luckily I qualify for a residency based on Mercosur's freedom of movement
@@wagmi614 lol you seem to a fan
@@NearShoreLiving I see lucky you 😉
You must have a passport of Mercosur, probably of Chile
I am interested in travelling/moving to Argentina, primarily smaller town or rural areas. Great content! Smart kid, I gave you a follow.
Hopefully the new President can turn things around for Argentina.
Update: no, everything is worse than ever :(
@@JoanCabrol
Only less than 200 days in, inflation is down and there is a budget surplus. I don’t think anyone worldwide thought a turnaround would be overnight. It will be fascinating to watch but there are some positive signs.
@@therehastobesomethingmoore obviamente iba a bajar la inflación si devaluaron y frenaron todas las actividades e inversiones. El costo de vida es más alto que en Europa y los sueldos siguen siendo los de sudamérica. Qué signos positivos hay si tenés 60% de pobres y una nula asistencia social? No hay NINGÚN indicador positivo, ninguna inversión. Qué sentido tiene estabilizar artificialmente la inflación si la gente está mucho peor que antes? Es un gobierno inhumano lleno de gente incapaz, que siguen un populista de derecha que grita y habla con su perro muerto. Lamento si no puedo coincidir con el análisis frío que se ve desde afuera, pero la única verdad es la realidad.
Argentina is an option for financial reasons, but the 'atmosphere' will definitely be a factor. I would prefer a small town. I don't know if I would be able to deal with the issues long term tho. I am afraid that since I am an American, I would be a target.
I think Argentina is a great place to retire BUT I would also look into Spain - lots of low cost places there and a lot safer.
@anniesshenanigans3815
Hola ! Hello !
Bienvenido a Argentina.
En el Interior de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, hay cientos de ciiudades chicas, medianas y grandes donde se puede vivir y comer bien con tranquilidad y sobre todo, con plena Seguridad..
Dear friend, I am currently living in Argentina with Temporary residency valid until Oct 2024. However my DNI renewal is still under process. My query is - Can I enter Argentina from other countries with my temporary residency document without having DNI? Kindly suggest.
Not 100% sure. I would check with consulates
Estoy de acuerdo en todo todo lo que has dicho ,mejor descriocion imposible.
Asi es argentina.
Que tengas mucha suerte , saludos 👌👍
Hey bro I love you ! I'm moving to Argentina
If you need any help with code-related stuff I'd be happy to help
Thanks man
Nice & honest video as usual !
But please ; do you mean that the inflation problem in the country and lack of motivation from workers can affect the procedures that foreigners make to obtain a , residency , and nationality/ Argentinian passeport despite meeting the requirements ???
It is no true!
I don't understand why you couldn't just say I really love Argentinian food without making it into a contest.
I understand you: sometimes I would lie to people I was taking the bus, but I would hide the fact that I was using an uber. And everytime I had bad service at some café I would channel my anger by thinking exactly that: I would probably be as demotivated as this waiter. people here they are fantastic, I really wish them the best... And we spanish people don't care if you think Argentina is a intellectual powerhouse, because many like me think the same. You left just in time. Everything is 3x and the exchange rate hasn't budge an inch, since nov 2023
Yep. Ouch. I have an itch for leaving places hahaha I'm the Forrest Gump of the expat world
Is Argentina a good place to pick up Spanish? People always recommend Colombia because their accent and pronunciation is clear. Just wanted to know your opinion.
It's all fairly the same. It's like debating if English from London is easier than English from New York.
You know?
I think being around people that you want to talk to might be more important than the accent
will you make a video on Peru's citizenship?
Where are you from man?
Thanks for your very informative video. My Spanish is very limited,but Argentina has been on my list of places I want to visit for a long time. I'm afraid that many countries in Europe and on the American continent,including the US are destined for similar conditions to those Argentina is suffering through now. It's really sad and could've been avoided,but I'm afraid it's too late now.
Hopefully not but we'll see. I hope you enjoy Argentina
It was planned, the want to enslave the world
It is deliberate at this point. These people know exactly what they are doing. In the US, the prevailing idea is to get what you can get before the end and they are spending money we don't have like drunken sailors. How much of it goes into their offshore accounts nobody knows.
Is there any specific reason to choose the background of the video post to be two girls taking a pause ?
😅 just experimenting with thumbnails to see what performs best, etc. This channel will never become a "dating" thing but I was curious to see about the girls since so many similar channels use women on their thumbnails.
I was wonder the same thing, it looked super sketch ngl.
Great video content though
Clickbait
Hi,
What you explained is interesting, as we discussed this with a friend in Finland yesterday. People complain about salary, as they have a job that they more or less can not get fired from, they have paid vacation, they have paid sick leave. "What is the point of improving things, because I do not benefit from it", " I'm not going to study this thing because the employer might benefit from it, and I do not get paid for my time more ...".
The thinking processes is upside down. You want to develop and do your job excellently, because you learn personally and increase your value. You become more independent and flexible. Do you think that I will give bonuses to people who do not actually want to grow personally ?
If you are a street sweeper and your streets are the best in the city, even though it is a cheep area, do you think it will not be noticed ? The value of the area will grow, they know who did it, and an other area will also want to improve and get better. The money is a positive side effect.
Take pride in your work.
Finland is the tax champion in the world 56,5% tax, so yes it it is bugging me and others, that the state buys crappy fighter jets for 35 billion €, when the whole countries annual budget for education is 600 million. Or when they give away 8 billion € to southern Europe or 2 billion to foreign aid, or 10 billion to Greece, and pay for 100.000s migrants which cost billions.
It is a disgrace that the politicians behave like this, but the fact is, I will develop my skills, network and freedom. It is a question of attitude.
You got to grow up dude!
why?
Winds of change
Man, you have reinforced the praise! When the situation gets better, it's clear you will get back. It is not your fight, it's ours.
Thank you for saying the plain absolute truth about our beloved country!
Have a good start anywhere you want it!
HELLO I SAW YOUR VIDEO, I AM GLAD THAT YOU DECIDED TO LEAVE ARGENTINA.I AM ARGENTINE AND I LIVE IN THE TERRITORY AND I DONT LIKE FOREIGNERS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF US ,I SEE MANY LOCALS WHO WANT TO SELL THE GOOD THINGS ABOUT OUR CULTURE ,BUT I DONT LIKE THAT I SHARE IT.I HOPE YOU FIND A PLACE IN THE WORDL THAT IS COMFORTABLE FOR YOU.NEW YEAR EVE.

100%
We go get pretty good infrastructure in return.
I moved to Argentina from Miami 😂 See my adventures.
Good video.
is there some weird loophole or way to get the passport after the residency without staying there for 2 years
Not that I know of but doesn't mean that it's not the case.
You'll need to stay 6-8 months out of the year.
@@NearShoreLiving from my understanding there's not really a streamlined process for applying for the passport, you have to just prove certain things in the court in front of the judge, I was thinking if renting everything in my own name and asking someone staying there to make expenses with my secondary card could also make the process easier?
@@wagmi614 i'm pretty sure nowadays they are tracking your entries and exits really well
I believe one is having a child born in Argentina gives you fast track to sitizenship
The answer is no and yes, if you leave from an airport of Argentina, you are recorded, but you can go to border between Argentina and Bolivia, then sneak out with a crdula(Paraguay or the other, maybe even DNI of Argentina, not so sure), so you use these cedula to enter Bolivia and then leave Bolivia with same cedula and do reverse when you need to return Argentina, but two years to get citizenship in Argentina, assuming that you are not married to Argentina girl or have a Argentina child, then you have hire a lawyer to win your case which doy y have 100% chance
pues argentina con todos sus problemas es un pais libre y generoso, te dio a ti el DNI solo porque lo solicitaste, contame de otro pais que lo haga, vete si quieres eres libre y no tenes que explicar nada, es tu vida, suerte, En argentia tenemos un dicho " quien se va sin que lo echen vuelve sin que lo llamen"

Music is subjective. You can’t say one country has better music lol
Can you do a video on your thoughts on Brazillian citizenship?
In what way? Like benefits and stuff?
Yes, if you would recommend it, Watched all your videos and you mentioned your hesitations with Uruguay, and Paraguay. Do those concerns also apply in Brazil? Are there any other concerns?@@NearShoreLiving
Argentina has been going thru tough times for over 50 years. Nothing new.
Poverty fatigue gets to everyone if you are surrounded by it every day.
I agree, Buenos Aires is the nerve center of Hispanic culture throughout the world...On the other hand, you are also right about inflation, anyway I think it is going down, fortunately...
I hope things will get better
why are so many people wearing masks in your Nov2023 video?? old footage? i was in Argentina then, and still am, and 1% of people wore masks
Your vision of Argentina is 100% right The country is great but the only thing that destroyed everything were bad goverments during 80 years For the same reason native argentines have been also leaving the country even when they know they will miss all the great things of Argentina Its a sad situation I just want to let you know that Argentina was in the past a lot better in the economy and now the new president is trying to return the country to be ok In the future whem the things get better maybe you and all the rest that will be able to return
Im from Córdoba, and i can tell that you are 100% right. The financial situation is so hard that i was years depressed bc of that, i've given always mi 120% percent at work, but it always felt that it wasnt enough. So finally i decided to leave, i have my ticket now and a little money, but i think my effort will have value in another place. In two weeks i will not be here for good.
Best of luck, man! Suerte
@@NearShoreLiving Thank you! Best of luck for you too!
3:50 why don't you pay them in dollars then?
We don't hate you for saying your preferences. Those are your choices and likes. We Mexicans love Argentina for what it is. We accept and welcome Argentinians who come to Mexico to settle, which will be in the thousands soon.
bueno puedo contestarte que te equivocas en el éxodo del país de argentina, por tu elocuente comentario sobre miles de argentino viajando a mexica el país ahora mismo esta teniendo un impulso y el impulso es que entro un presidente nuevo con ideas revolucionarias ,algo que ponele tu presidente no hace .
el presidente de mexico esta mas cerca de los gobiernos de colombia (socialista), parecido a argentina en tema democrático.
pero la diferencia es que hay un presidente que es totalmente diferente a cualquier político mundial,y eso querido amigo es una gran ventaja que tiene argentina en este momento,si es dura la realidad en este momento pero como decía a principio el impulso es el sacrificio del pueblo a costa de sacar la corrupción, hay que ordenar las cuentas para que las empresas puedan confiar y/o invertir en el país de vuelta,pero solo se logra generando credibilidad!
es lo que esta logrando milei !
te mando saludos desde argentina,créeme no tenemos pensado viajar a tu país no es la primera opción, y en mi caso seria la ultima con el tema grave de narcotráfico y delito algo que tu presidente se ve conforme conviviendo con los carteles !
es mas te diría si todo sale bien te darán ganas de viajar a mi país que argentinos viajando al tuyo!
no es con ganas de ofender solo te explico lo que para mi ideológicamente representan los rumbos de los dos países en comparación y créeme argentina es un buen ejemplo de lo grande que puede ser un país como potencia y caer de rodillas x culpa del estado corrupto!
si lo veo de esa forma hoy nosotros clavamos un 180* y ustedes parece que aceleran en el mismo sentido no te parece?

But the good thing is that finally after +100 years we have a goverment that really is changing things for good. you should come back in a couple of years when things get better
I first when to Argentina as a kid and it was always my dream to live there. I hope you guys turn things around and I am still welcomed!

Hahah we shall see what Milei does. I hope the best for Argentina.
Plus new video related to Milei coming out soon
Está bueno esto que decías desde tu experiencia, aunque no había hiperinflación en ese momento. Hiciste bien en irte, el panorama ahora es completamente desolador. Venimos de unos años de malas políticas, y ahora sumado a un gobierno que no le interesa la gente y ha hecho todo mal en seis meses. Saludos!
You are trolling for saying Argentina is the cultural powerhouse of the Spanish speaking world. lol
This is definitely subjective, but i dont think there is a cultural center in the Spanish speaking world now. Each country is doing its own thing. In the past , between 1910 and 1960/70 I think Argentina was indeed a cultural powerhouse for South America, less so for Mexico and Central America which had their own thing. But now for instance, Mexican modern culture is practically unknown here in Argentina.
curious, do you find Argentians to be more honest and friendly compared to Colombians? I find Colombians to be cold and dishonest.
A lot of these cultures tend to be more indirect when speaking so if you're coming from the anglosphere or German/Russian etc. It can be frustrating when people say something and mean something else.
I speak Spanish and I find it frustrating that I can't just tell people directly what I want to say hahah
@@NearShoreLiving That is true. It is more of telling people what they think you want to hear rather than being openly dishonest
Okay so what about the new president. Will he turn things around. He has to stabilize the currency first.
I think Milei has a incredibly difficult task in front of him. I wouldn't want to be him. Cool guy tho.
A far right racist extremist leader. Kts getting worse already
Interesting video, I myself have been to Argentina (just once back in 2005) and had an amazing time. I am from Vancouver Canada. But what i need to say is this the people of Argentina need to stop doing what they have always done in the past and take this Leap of faith and Vote in The Ancap Javier Milei ! Understand what an Ancap is! I left Canada now currently living as a resident in Mexico all due to the sick policy of the current Canadian government, Canada is heading in a direction that will be the same in time as current Argentina , Wokeness, Socialism on steroids! A whole bunch of other sick ideas are happening in basiclly all so called modern western lands. And my fear is even though people think they will end up voting for the other guy ( I am talking about Canada or even USA ) believing a change will take it back to better times, I just dont think that is going to happen. This current sickness it seems it has to run its course then the people will wake up (the sheep that have been blinded with brainwashing). Argentina give Javier I hope he isnt some plant from the WEF! But if he is the real deal wow! Think of this Bitcoin as legal tender , all the useless Government crap over! Go with it bring him in. of course if he turns out to be the real deal , yikes he might upset the world powers and they will take him out sadly. But I have been thinking if he gets in and does whta he says he does I will myself leave Mexico and get my ass down there asap and be apart of the new economy !
How's mexico in the future? Is it safe to live and easy to migrate?
Interesting experience! Thanks for sharing
Are you talking about el Salvador 🇸🇻
I have heard he is a WEF member but cannot confirm. The elites love to take a country down and then build it back up, so Argentina may actually be the best place to invest right now. I think it's Euro-centric culture could make it a powerhouse in SA, but... it could turn back left just as fast.
We call it the Uniparty in the US and you can tell there are not really two opposing parties. They pretend. Despite all his promises, Trump did not drain the swamp. He was sabatoged at every turn and even by people he had appointed. There is a loyalty to the system that supersedes everything else. Of course, in Mexico, the government is not really in charge, so you have that issue to deal with too
Now that Milei is in office, have you changed any of your opinions?
Nope.
Many influencers will make you think that this is a definite turning point but these people have not followed politics in LATAM. Guys like Milei come and go.
I like Milei and even made a video about him a year ago or so because I am so impressed by him. But, the idea that a single man is going to fix what is centuries of systematic and cultural problems is a bit naive.
Maybe he can be the start of something but you're looking at decades worth of time. I could be dead in 20 years lol
@@NearShoreLiving That is true because, like Trump, he doesn't seem to have enough like-minded allies in the government. It only takes a few left-wing judges to over-rule what you are trying to do and say it's not legal etc.... to stand in your way. Look what happened to Bolsonaro in Brazil.
@@NearShoreLiving You are absolutely right this is not something that will change overnight, it will be a slow process with advances and retreats. The only thing i would say is that things are so bad they are bound to get a little better. If he is succesful this will probably last ten years or so, and then there will be a reckoning and see if the country has learned its lessons or not. The safe bet will be it willl not have learned but hope springs eternal.
Its worse
So what's better or worse place? Columbia or Argentina? Any other countries in south American you can. Recommend?
If I was living in Latin America then I would 100% pick Argentina or Chile. No competition in my eyes.
@@NearShoreLiving And why not mentioned Uruguay? It’s usually mentioned as the best in SA.

This video blows my mind. Been here two weeks and so far they're in competition with the Philippines for the worst 2 countries for food on earth. I started going to the same restaurant every day because the quality of food at so many expensive places was SO BAD. Well, the 6th time was a charm. My regular reliable place gave me a dessert that had such a fowl stench to it I was scared to death I'm going to come down with food poisoning. Threw it away after 2 bites.

You need to learn more you sound ignorant af my guy
Boring!!!
What! Clearly he's outside his wheelhouse for making such a bold (and false) statement. Just the history alone from Mexico is far greater and deeper than anything from Argentina. It's not even close.

Just for the record, I am not even Argentinian lol.
[Expat] lol you are a inmigrant like the rest of us
Words have different meaning in different languages. In Spanish, sure. That would be the best word for it but not in English because there are different meanings to words.
I can highlight many cases where Spanish speakers in Spanish use words that have different literal meanings than the meaning that is given to the by the culture.
“Breaking News” Argentina is not part of the Western world.
how so?
This video is just a bunch of awful takes.
Why?
Nothing is really cheap in Argentina anymore. Those days are gone for expats. Sorry, the food is actually pretty terrible here.
You forgot Los Enanitos Verdes!
un lamento de RUclips
You sound stupidly frivolous friend!
Why?
What country are you planning to move to next?
It will be a hugely unpopular country for my audience 😅
Video coming out soon - there is a preview on a community post on my channel.
Something tells me you work as HR. I thought almost every Argentian is very good in english and work for abroad or $usd there. People who work on government or rural places have their own reasons. Argentina is open country, isnt it?
I am not Argentinian
Why do these "travel vloggers" stick big pictures of women in their thumbnails, even when the video has nothing to do with the thumbnail at all. Weird and sad.
