Thank you! I’ve been told that a lot and appreciate your comment. I still need the wine to chill out my nerves. 🤣 An off duty pilot sat next to me when I was much younger and explained each and every noise and change in feeling of the flight. His help was invaluable in my travels. You guys are wonderful. Thank you for helping us see the world!
I wish I had known! The gate didn't beep for me, so I presumed it didn't work. :( But, I was so impressed - Argentina is the only country I've ever been to where I could use my subway card with a negative balance!! I understand you only get 2 rides like that, but that is amazing!
When I travel abroad, I always pay with credit cards. I don't carry paper bills in my pockets. Neither do I use them here, in Buenos Aires. Going to an ATM is a waste of time.
The honest answer is, it's complicated. Cash is preferred because they know they will get their money and don't have to wait. Dollars are acceptable as are pesos. The credit cards are not so great for them because of the fee they get charged, which is why they try to make some money off that - instead of charging 3-4% they will charge you at least 10% extra. They discount for payment in cash because it is preferred. When you use a card, they do make it a little tougher simply because they want cash. Does that help?
The ATM machine forces you to make many withdrawals because it has a limit in the amount of bills it can give you each time. I think it cannot handle more than 40 bills each time. So with the inflation and so small notes it is a problem. That's why we prefer paying with cards or through apps
Yes! I mention that in my next video. And as a foreigner, I’ve tried to get some of the payment apps and couldn’t. We don’t have a DNI, I think that’s what it’s called?
Pobre, hizo un viaje tan largo, solo para hablar de la economía, es comprensible, la pobre, no es agradable, y por falta de alegrías, algo tiene qué hacer. Y hace este tipo de videos.
