A Brief Hiatus…

Sorry for the lack of posts, but we’ve be traveling in the US for the past couple of weeks and away from the blog.  We’ll be back next week, hopefully with some new and insightful commentary.

We had planned to write about our experiences with the new U$S 134 tourist tax that Argentina will be charging to enter the country effective 1/1/09, but fortunately for us, that plan has now been put on hold until at least March.  That means we’ll save $268 this time!  Since this issue affects so many tourists and expats, we’ll be sure to stay on top of it.

See you all soon!

    YES! I had been frantically researching the entrance fee to see if I should make a run to Uruguay before the new year to postpone the tax but this is very welcome news. That’s why I check your guys’ blog I guess.

    Well, we´ve been paying and being publicly humiliated to be able to get into the US for years… so I guess it was about time we returned the courtesy.
    At least you won´t have to tell a room full of people how much your earn and try to proof to an embassy employee you have ties (financial and emotional) to your own home country.
