Here's a little list of some things that would've been good to know prior to moving here. If you've ever lived here you'll know what I'm talking about, and if you're ever planning on coming here this list will probably help you out too.
2. When you buy a cheap cell phone on a pay-as-you-go contract, the money you put on the phone expires within a month. So don't keep putting 100 pesos on it and think that you're just talking a lot.
3. If you eat red meat multiple times a week it's going to change your body.
4. Coins are special. When your grocer asks you if you've got 20 centavos, say no, always.
5. Instead of spending hours trying to decipher the Guia T, use the website www.comoviajo.com.
6. The summer is hotter than hot and the winter is not that cold, despite what the Argentines say. Unless you plan on traveling far south it's not necessary to pack for two opposite seasons.
7. Always kiss on the cheek- even if it's your first time meeting and there's a swine flu pandemic running rampant. Otherwise you risk the chance of probably seriously offending someone.
8. When you're earning pesos and paying your rent in US dollars, you're probably going to lose some money
9. Maradonna is the best footballer ever. Period.
10. Don't call them the Falklands!
I'm curious... how does eating meat change your body? In what way?
