Moving to and Living In Buenos Aires, Argentina Ebook

I started my blog Moving to Argentina over two years ago when we began the physical process of preparing to move to Buenos Aires. The blog has since evolved into a huge resource for readers, but I received so many emails asking for a comprehensive guide to moving to Buenos Aires, Argentina that I finally decided to write this ebook.

The book is dedicated to my daughter Caitlyn who was born in Buenos Aires just after I completed the book, and my husband Stephane whose unwavering support kept me going even when the final days of pregnancy threatened to derail all my hard work.

If you are considering moving to Buenos Aires for work, school, or just to enjoy the good life, then this book is for you. Moving to and Living in Buenos Aires, Argentina, will answer many of your questions about how to go about moving to Buenos Aires and what it's really like to live here on a day to day basis. Once through the book, you will have plenty of information under your belt to continue your preparations, or perhaps you will decide Buenos Aires is not for you, either way you will be much more informed.

So if you are looking for Laura Zurro's ebook Moving to and Living in Buenos Aires, Argentina (also applicable to Argentina in general) look no further, you've come to the right place!

Here's what readers have to say:

"Your ebook has been greatly beneficial for myself, my wife and our 2 year old daughter's move to Argentina. At times during my research I used your ebook as a reference, like every twenty year old traveler in Europe with their Lonely Planet guide book as their bible. Even after relocating to Argentina I continue to use your book as a reference. You have answered so many of our questions. Not only did your ebook help us with our planning and research, but when we had more questions you were an email click away from providing more valuable help. Thanks once again." --

"Your book is very cool. My husband and I are retired and looking to get out of the USA permanently. We don't know if Argentina is really right for us, but so far all of our research is leading us there. Your book has more usable information and addresses questions that I would not thought to have asked.  At any rate, the book is the best how to for expats that I have read." -- Jan B, Washington State

  "Hola Laura, I just finished reading your book! Thank you so much!! You did a great job putting this book together. You should seriously think about translating it into Spanish. We don't have this kind of information available to us. People just assume that because we speak Spanish is all we need to move to a Hispanic country. GRACIAS Laura. Your book will help me a lot. I love the way you organized the chapters and that you cover things like food, banking, pregnancy, etc; things that other books never cover. Reader,if you need, want to move to Argentina this is the Bible you need to read and to take with you!" -- Abigail T, Indiana

"Laura, the book is great! My wife, Gerri, and I have both gone through it and are on our second time to pick up additional details. It is an excellent collection of well-organized information and is proving very helpful in our planning to vacation (and maybe live for awhile) in Buenos Aires. Thank you for making the information available."  -- Gayle and Gerri R. - New York 

"My wife and I have been researching the move to Argentina for over a year.  We've consulted dozens of websites, travel guides, friends, etc etc.  But this book did for us in a few hours what had been taking us weeks of research.  It is easy to read, intelligently organized, and full of practical suggestions that you have to string together from multiple sources without the book.  If your time is worth even a few dollars an hour, the investment in this book will pay immediate dividends if you've already made up your mind to move, and if you haven't decided yet, it can help clarify things for you pretty fast." -- Hugh A. - San Francisco, California

"I just want to thank you again for the book "Moving to and Living in Buenos Aires". It is a very clear and informative book that truly details the intricacies I would not have thought of when planning my move down to BA. Heading down w/ my dog in early April -- and very grateful!" -- Bryan - New York City

Hola Laura,
I just finished reading your book! Thank you so much!! You did a great job putting this book together. You should seriously think about translating it into Spanish. We don't have this kind of information available to us. People just assume that because we speak Spanish is all we need to move to a Hispanic country. GRACIAS Laura. Your book will help me a lot.
I love the way you organized the chapters and that you cover things like food, banking, pregnancy, etc; things that other books never cover.
Reader,if you need, want to move to Argentina this is the Bible you need to read and to take with you!

My wife and I have been researching the move to Argentina for over a year. We've consulted dozens of websites, travel guides, friends, etc etc. But this book did for us in a few hours what had been taking us weeks of research. It is easy to read, intelligently organized, and full of practical suggestions that you have to string together from multiple sources without the book. If your time is worth even a few dollars an hour, the investement in this book will pay immediate dividends if you've already made up your mind to move, and if you haven't decided yet, it can help clarify things for you pretty fast.

Thanks for the great comments and feedback! I've always been glad to hear that my blog has helped people and to be honest I had a bit of trepidation that my ebook wouldn't measure up and be as useful as I wanted it to be, but it seems that my fears were more than a bit unfounded!

I hope that the book continues to be useful as more and more people look towards moving to Buenos Aires, and in the meantime I will continue to post more useful information in my blogs.

Thanks again!
Laura

Hola Laura! I just came across your site and felt the urge the write to you. My Husband and I are from Argentina but have been in the States, California, for over 20 years and it's here where our 2 teenagers were born. A trip to BA, 4 years ago, ignited in me the need to go back but couldn't get the rest of the family, specially my Daughter and Husband, to get aboard. We just came back from another visit to our wonderful Buenos Aires and now the wish to move and live in Argentina has touched us all! My Son and Daughter want to study in BA and I would love for them to do it. My Husband can now consider the idea (something that I thought it was basically impossible). Buenos Aires is more beautiful and exciting than ever. We have traveled a lot around the world and can definitely say that BA has it all: the best food, tons of culture and fantastic people. Unfortunately has also some big political and economical problems what makes a move back a serious, serious, actually very serious decision. At almost 50, mu Husband and I would like to semi-retire and that's not cheap. I have given myself one year to research and find a way to make a living without having to get a 10 to 5 job there...it will be our dream to go back to our country and give our kids the opportunity of a different lifestyle. I'll be coming back and reading your blog often. In the meantime, thank you so much for all your information! You can always find me on line at [email protected] or at my own blog: http://www.niceandeasyantiques.blogspot.com
Keep in touch, Chau!
Con todo carino,
Marcela
