ARGENTINA LOS BICAMPEONES!! 🇦🇷🇦🇷
Siiiii.. 💪😄👍. Siempre la "Copa América" y los "Mundiales de Futbol", son en los meses más fríos (Junio, Julio o Agosto)
Creo que fue la única vez (Qatar 2022) que para nosotros, era verano. Por eso, salimos a festejar a las calles: "Porque hacía demasiado calor". Aparte, empezaban las vacasiones, playas y piletas... "Fin de año"... DESCONTROL!!!
Pero ahora, hacia frío... Y por eso no se festejo tanto...
La Argentina siempre, al revés de todos....😂😂😂
Un beso😘
Felicitaciones que lo hayas disfrutado también! Abrazos!
🤩🤩😊
Lots of foreigners in Argentina always seem to notice how stores here are specialized in one type of product: Butcher shops, bakeries, vegetable stores, etc. Well about the velcro thing, this is no different... you should go to a "Mercería". In those places you can get everything sewing and knitting related.
Very useful advice thank you!
My dad was Argentine. We visited Buenos Aires last June. Unfortunately he passed away unexpectedly three weeks ago. I’m really enjoying watching your vlogs remembering our trip. I will be back in Argentina one day. ❤
Qué tristeza! Lamento mucho tu pérdida 😢 Espero y le ruego a Dios te acompañe especialmente en este tiempo de dolor.
Abrazo fuerte desde el sur del país 🇦🇷
@@patriciapa7379 Gracias por sus amables palabras. Siempre tendré a mi papá y a Argentina en mi corazón.
I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss and what you are going through 🫶🏻
This is My dream city from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Estas haciendo compras en el lugar equivocado , Todo accesorio para la luz , que sea electricidad , lo podes comprar en la "ferreteria" que lo tenes cruzando la estacion a una cuadra , yendo para cabildo.
Hay una señora muy amable que te va a poder guiar en todo lo que necesites y obviamente los precios son más baratos que ir a comprarlos en un easy.
Después cosas para las casas , tambien tenes locales del otro lado de la estacion , hay locales que venden articulos para la casa.
Espero que te sirva.
saludos.
thanks for sharing the beauty of BA!!!
❤️❤️❤️
I would, like some others did, reccomend going to a ferretería or any local neighborhood store. And ask. Ask the people how to do it, what you need, you can even show them a picture
Thanks!
11:10 that light bulb is so argentina it hurts 😂
😂 I’m happy it’s not just mine then!
Completamente normal para nosotros, alquilar y comprar las luces que más te gusten con tu nueva casa. Para mí, así es cómo empiezo a sentirme "en casa"
apartments don’t include light fixtures here😅 you just buy them and when you leave you take them with you
This is interesting 😅
Oh! 😮 Es así en todo Buenos Aires?
Yo vivo en Patagonia, y no es así en mi ciudad (Comodoro). Los lugares que he alquilado siempre tenían todos los apliques de luz.
@@patriciapa7379 depende del departamento y del dueño Jajja pero en mi actual departamento me pasó y se de otros que tb, igual le pones la lámpara o ventilador y cuando te vas te lo llevas y listo
@@estefaniacortes9725 Sí, lo de llevarse todo lo que pones tú, seguro que sí. No lo había escuchado, sí de cambiar algo por una cuestión de preferencia estética.
Gracias por tomarte el tiempo y brindar tu amable respuesta.
Bendiciones!
depende del dueño
Gracias por mostrar mi pais ❤
Que lindo volver a ver tus vlogs! Este invierno vino fuerte, hace muchos años que no hacía este frío. Espero que les haya funcionado bien elburlete. 😊
🤍🤍🤍 espero que estes bien!
@@chanelmeyerr todavía no, pero espero que ya falte menos 😮💨

¡GRANDE MICHAEL.HAY QUÉ TENER MUCHO PODER PARA COMER 3 HAMBURGUESAS🍔🍔🍔TE FELICITO AMIGO.ABRAZOS🤗🤝👍🇦🇷🇺🇲
El solo comió el big Mac y yo comí la otra 👍
I don't like doing anything home improvement-related, but you and Michael did a great job troubleshooting the lighting issue. I also noticed that there isn't much insulation in homes in Argentina, so if it's in the 40's or 30's outside, it's quite cold inside.
Thanks for the update!
As per the lighting appliance, I've recently had to replace some similar at home (And I live in BA City too) the hole on the roof has like two little ears on each side with a hole small enough for a screw, where you can put two screws on each side and it will hold well
Thank you!
Pets aren't allowed on public transport. Not on Trains, subways, buses. It's dumb but it is what it is. During the weekends you can take your dog on the subway only if it's in a pet carrier, so if the dog is too big and you can't carry both the dog and the carrier then your dog can't use the subway. Hope they change this soon.
No es algo "tonto". Hay gente que es alérgica a los pelos de perros y gatos y además los transportes ya viajan demasiado estallados como para encima tener que sumarle animales al problema.
Oh my gosh, I also had the same problem with the light fixture when I moved here!! At first, I thought that my landlord was just "lazy" and didn't want to help me, but then, after moving around some places and visiting my friends' homes, I figured out that it was normal for them. There are many little things regarding electricity/lights that I just gave up and hired a professional to solve hahah.
I found your video by chance and I really liked it, it's nice to see other foreigners sharing the same experience about daily life here.
nice shots on the train station.
Thank you very much!
Temperature here in Buenos Aires feels worse because of humidity, or at least that's what everyone says, so it must be true?
I think so 😅
those holes in the ceiling with the cables out are what's most common in buenos aires' apartments. You have to do the aesthetic fixes you want for yourself and before moving away, take them out.
So interesting ‘
So interesting!
Howdy Chanel, how cool is it that you showed up on my recommendations? I think I've actually met you before, in one of those language exchange events in Palermo.
About the dog and the train, keep in minds you can only bring pets on weekends, so that may be the reason they told you no
Nice video and nice channel - subscribed.
If you think Jumbo Palermo is big ... back in Chile (where Jumbo comes from), I went in a Jumbo that had 70 checkouts!!!
Wow!!!
Well hopefully it goes well like your tips and love the family 🙏🇦🇷🙏🏿🙏🏽🙏🏼🇺🇸🇮🇱💖 so happy for Argentina and the great winn 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷😊
Home stuff? en la Ferretería. Velcro? en la Mercería. Specialized stores are always cheaper. Home Depot was here is Buenos Aires until 2002. Easy buy it.
🫶🏻🫶🏻
Burletes de gomaespuma, plafones, todo un léxico nuevo... Pero Easy es caro, mejor en ferreterías o casas de iluminación
El portero del edificio seguro que te instala los artefactos de iluminacion
No hay un portero en nuestro depto :\
The light fixtures is 100% like that in Argentina.
When you move you put the lighting that you want and when you left you took the lighting and leave the bulb holder thingy with 2 wires.
Only light fixtures that COULD be left are the ones that use dichroic lamps that are fixed to furniture.
Imagine if you are stuck with shitty owner light fixtures that you even need to take care of.
Just buy the one you like and place them. You do that 1 time in years.
The problem is that we can’t figure out how to install the light fixture because we can drill or screw anything into the ceiling! It’s like open air if that makes sense
@@chanelmeyerrsi le piden ayuda a algun vecino los va ayudar! O sino al encargado del edificio si tienen.
@@chanelmeyerr If you don't have room to drill, and if above the ceiling there is something like a plastic or metal socket, those, usually have two holed fins, for two screws or something similar. Instead of screws, because you should find a fixture with the exact same holes, you can loop a piece of binding wire (alambre de atar / alambre de fardo), and tighten it with pincers against the fixture. Binding wire is very thin and flexible, in most fixtures you don't see it there, even more, some fixtures have two pieces of metal, one piece goes fixed to the socket in the wall with binding wire, and the first piece, then goes with screws.
@@chanelmeyerr You just buy a bracket that goes in the hole. If you want I can give me a number for an electrician. Also, the best thing is to go to a Ferretería, tell them your issue and they will help you. That's why you go to the local small mom and pops stores because you'll get customer care there, not like in Easy that no one helps you. You can also go to Datelux that is a shop specialized in lighting. Av. Raúl Scalabrini Ortiz 250 (y Corrientes).
@@chanelmeyerr You dont need to drill anything. the ceiling holes 100% have holes for screws. you probably dont see it because the paint of the ceiling but it has holes and probably a horizontal metal inside where you can also hang the fixture.
The same with the holes on the wall for the lights, they 100% have holes to screw the fixtures.
Seach on google "ceiling electric box" and you can see how they are without paint.
Hi,.how are you? The light stuff Is a common isue when you rent. Here in Tandil too.
Te felicito por tu progreso con el castellano..bravo! Es muy notorio el avance cuando hablas en castellano en tu canal de spanishteacher

Hola Chanel te recomiendo comprar spots led, iluminan mucho, no son lo mas esteticos pero si dan luz natural al ambiente, generalmente en argentina si vos alquilas y no tienen un porta lampara como le llamamos aca, compras lo que a vos te gusta y cuando te vas te lo llevas, no es lo ideal pero es asi, pocos departamentos vienen con apliques incluidos y suele ser porque los inquilinos anteriores no se los llevaron, saludos!
Gracias por esta explicación! En los EEUU no es así así que otra vez argentina nos sorprendió 😂 pero igual es algo pequeño! Siempre es interesante ver las diferencias culturales
if it is a long term rental it's normal that those lights aren't included because everyone should be free to decorate the apartament on their own taste
Tbh buenos Aires aprtments are not usually insulated at all, there's a lot of old buildings with old windows and doors that make spaces even colder to be inside than out, and renters don't really care about this. I've lived in at least 7 places and it's always been the same. Also, a lot of cafes, supermarkets and buses don't have any heating, not sure what's the strategy there. So, yeah. Winters are dreadful in this city and its mostly cold for 7 or more months a year. Hopefully this will change in the future.
El burlete para la ventana te dió resultado? Vienen también para debajo de la puerta. Lamentablemente la mayoria de las casas tienen "chiflete" (pequeñas aberturas donde entra aire frio). Sobretodo si es un edificio viejo. Si tienen techo alto es imposible de calentar el espacio 🥶
Si ayudó muchísimo! La verdad es que necesitamos más 😅
These last couple days I've heard a lot about a sort of new burger joint called "Kiddo" that's supposed to be just like McDonnalds but made better(better meat, better cooked, etc), it's very close to the shopping center you visited for this video, you guys could try it for one of these vlogs if you like that style of burger.
Great recommendation! We’ll have to give it a try!
Que hermoso vlog, hay muchos lugares para recorrer en buenos aires, también una de las cosas que me gustan de mi ciudad es la cantidad de lugares sean culturales como para pasear o recorrer, espero que algún día puedas visitar más lugares culturales, te amo demasiado chanel y espero que puedas disfrutar probar los locales de comidas estoy segura de que te van a encantar ❤❤ saludos de una argentina que vive en buenos aires 🇦🇷🥰❤ cuídate mucho 💖🤗 el invierno es una de mis estaciones favoritas y aca empieza el 21 de junio y es el invierno más frío a comparación de otros inviernos 💖❄️
🤍🤍🤍🤍
@@chanelmeyerr 🤍🤍🤍
Yeah the lighting situation in rented apartments here is a little crazy. Supposedly people just take their light fixtures from one place to another but it just feels like such a hassle for no reason
I would def prefer to have something hung and in place already haha
¿TU PERRITO PUPPY YA TIENE NOVIA?🤔🇦🇷🇺🇲
hola,el velcro en español se le dice abrojo
do you guys go to nomad meetups? I just got here and wonder where expats usually go to meet locals or other expats
You two are so sweet!
Gracias! 🫶
I'm trying to do a channel about life in BsAs, but it's gone too far down the Political rabbit-hole (I was inspired to start by the election last year). Your channel is a good inspiration to how i can dial it back a little. Thanks.
Did you use a realtor to find your apartment? I used AirBnB which is expiring at the end of this month and would like to stay longer.
No realtor!
yaaay! thank you for this very realistic blog! I'm moving back from California to Buenos Aires after 5 years and I'm trying to figure out what American things I should not forget hahah, do you have any tips? I'm definitely too used to Amazon prime 😶
I’d definitely recommend to stock up on your skin care products and medicine! I always wish I brought more medicine and acne medicine! I’ve seen a lot of people mention hot sauce if you’re into that 😂 and of course any and all tech items (phone, chargers, cables, batteries, headphones, computer, kindle etc) because that’s so expensive here :/
Sunscreen and antiperspirant. They don't really work here and the ones that work come from the US
Es la ciudad mas.bella que he conocido!! Para mi es la mas bella del mundo!
Coincido 😄😄
Muy buen video Chanel!! como propietario q busca alquilar te hago una consulta de curioso. ¿Ustedes cuando buscaban alquiler tenían ya dedicdida la zona/barrio ? ¿Pensaron en alquilar en microcentro ( downtown ) o preferían palermo / villa crespo ? Gracias y espero q esten disfrutando mucho del país y de la gente!!!
Éramos flexibles pero después de vivir acá por 6 meses queríamos vivir en algo más residencial. Pero muchos turistas prefieren Palermo! Para nosotros Microcentro es demasiado ocupado 😅
This has been the coldest winter in almost 15 years.
Light fixes should have two parts: one you screw to fixed holes in the ceiling (a metal thingy included in the slab), and an ornamental cap that you push in place once you have all screws installed. But as we say, puede fallar.
I’m looking forward to the warmer weather this week at least! And thanks!
Hey Chanel and Michael, we (girlfriend and myself) follow all your videos. If you need any help or advise just let us know. We live in the same area and are glad to help. ❤
Easy compro Home Depot, antes había Home Depots en Argentina, pero lo compro easy Saludos !
Compro Home Depot Argentina, no Home Depot a nivel mundial ! aclaro ja.
Interesante!!
Dog hack: get a prescription to make Max a companion dog (kinda emotional support pet). That is permitted in any public transport :) (he must to wear a muzzle tho)
I should look more into this!
👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏

Jumbo is the most expensive, so have that in mind if you are on a budget. (I'm from Argentina, I know 😆)
Thank you!!
HI !!! YOU CAN'T TO BE MORE PRETTY !!!!
YOU CAN'T TO BE SO SO SWEET !!! ... YOUR HUSBAND MUST BE A GREAT BOY !!! DO YOU KNOW WHY ??? BECAUSE GOD REWARDED HIM ...
WITH YOUUUU!!! .(( HAVE A PRETTY LIFE!!! AHHHH AND I LIKE A LOT WHAT YO DO ON UA-cam !!!BYE!!! (I HOPE YOU CAN UNDERSTAND MY ENGLISH... IT'S SO BUT SO BASIC WHAT...) CHAUUU PECOSA HERMOSA!!!🤗🤓
Acá, el 21 de Junio, empezó el invierno. "Ya estamos en Invierno"...!!!!!
🥶🥶🥶
This winter is colder than others Last winter war warmer
Homes in Argentina are made of brick, and cement pretty much...so that is why you're feeling the cold and humidity so much.
Doesn’t matter where you come from… Easy can be very EXPENSIVE depending on the product.
Es increíble cobran cualquier cosa. 20 lucas una cosa que conseguí a 11 en un local común. No sé entiende
Gracias! Ahora sabemos jaja
@@chanelmeyerr la próxima prueben en la ferretería del barrio primero jeje
¿probaron las hamburguesas de mostaza? para mi son mas ricas que las hamburguesas de mcdonalds
Nooooo son terrrriibbblleessss
@@chanelmeyerr
😂😂 no te gustan verdad Chanel?? Una vez me lo dijiste cuando te lo pregunte😂😂
Wendy's les pasa el trapo
Las de mostaza están hechas con pan bimbo y paty de unión ganadera. Tranquilamente te las podes hacer en tu casa. En cambio las demás sí saben algo diferente.
Let me tell you that we all have the lights like that, we just dont look up lmao
🤭🤭🤭🤭
Hahaha, little by little you are starting to realize that life here is not as easy as in the USA. But you both shall survive.
Don't quote me on the science, but everyone says Buenos Aires is colder due to humidity. Like, it gets to your bones -_-
I think I’ve heard this!
@@chanelmeyerr Must be true! People from la Patagonia would move to BsAs and say they feel colder!
this winter is very very cold, like my ex hearth
🫣🫣🫣
¿YA TENÉS LA DOBLE NACIONALIDAD?🤔🇦🇷🇺🇲
Burlete!
Can't believe the Americans can't figure out smth as simple as having to install light fixtures 😂 😂
Unfortunately, the weather is changing everywhere :/ it's just climate change, noting special about Argentina.
The owner is a rat. You cant rent an appartment without proper lightning.anyway buy some lamps and when the rent is finidhed you take them with you.installation is so easy just a connect the same color wires .of course cut the energy before😂😂😂 regards
Todavia las direcciones de los trenes conservan la mano inglesa
