    This video was filmed when the blue rate was about 1,200 so that is where these numbers come from ❤️

    Look for a rental in the neighborhood of Villa Urquiza, it's the new Palermo. Palermo is very international nowadays because foreigners choose that neighborhood to live in

    Thanks for doing such a detailed video! That rent increase is definitely a lot--as other people in the comments section have said, it might be worth looking into other options. Even though moving can be a lot of "quilombo," it might be worth it in this case.

    Hi! Next time in Belgrano I highly recommend going to Belgrano R, especially to Melian Avenue between La Pampa and Olazabal. All the blocks around are great.
    Also Plaza Arenales in Villa Devoto is great, and so is Barrio Parque just behind Malba Museum and near Paseo Alcorta Shopping.
    Visit Unicenter shopping if you havent as well!
    Some restaurants:
    Sarkis: abosultely legendary. You need to try Kafta de cordero, falafel, keppe crudo, etc
    Anchoita: probably my favorite. Great fish and steak. Just go 20 minutes before opening (impossible to make a reservation)
    Japanese:
    Tintoreria Yafuso (really hard to get in)
    Nueva Casa Japonesa (amazing)
    Ichisou
    Bistro Tokio
    Maru Omakase
    Buri Omakase
    Asian:
    Basically you have all China Town in Belgrano C but Royal Mansion is pretty good. Ma Po Tofu which is spicy is at least excelent there.
    Gran Dabbang
    Sudestada
    Una Cancion Coreana
    I could keep on forever ;)

    move, landlord usually play that game thinking you are lazy to move.
    you have little stuff, you can just do it yourself step by step. maybe a friend with a car or truck to move a few boxes and then the last day hire a small truck to move the big things last, like refrigerator and the bed. its called "fletes", they are not expensive if a small truck.

    You should go to a bazar and buy a stovetop toaster. Warm up your leftover facturas there, I even make my toasts there instead of in an electric toaster because it barely takes up any space. Warmed up leftover facturas are *the best*. Just make sure you don't burn them ;)

    Argentina is currently expensive in US dollars. This fluctuates often, which is why sometimes chileans cross to Argentina to buy stuff here, and sometimes argentinians cross to Chile to buy stuff there. Same with vacationing locally vs in Brazil, etc. I suspect the blue rate will go up at some point (some estimate around 1,500), and become "normal" again

    Como hay inflacion, especulan con eso. Te conviene establecer un precio de referencia en dolares, y pagar el equivalente en pesos (o dolares directamente). Podria ser similar a lo que te costó el equivalente en dolares a cuando comenzaste a alquilar, quiza un pequeño aumento, pero que no te quiten mucho mas. En Argentina se pueden hacer contratos en dolares.

      "super cabrales" is ones of the best product of the brand. a purple/red bag.

    If you make a rental contract in pesos you will always be better off. The dollar will rise. And if you do it in dollars, your rent probably won't increase as much. In any case, there you have one more argument for negotiation.
