In recent months, due to the crisis in Spain for more than two years, many Spanish families have decided to leave the country to try their luck in Argentina , where life is much cheaper. Therefore, it is not surprising that I can tell you the case of a family that has decided to leave Barcelona to go live in Buenos Aires , where everything is not as magnificent as here, obviously.
Starting from the basis that Argentina is a much more unstable country economically (see "Corralito") and politically, it would seem crazy to go there, when many times it is the Argentines who come to countries like Spain or Italy in search of a better life. However, there is a lot of unemployment here and people have to find solutions. And a good solution is to go live there. Why? Well, simply because life is about four times cheaper there .
Currently for one euro they can give you about 5.40 Argentine pesos , an amount that I already tell you is very good there. As it is, it is not surprising that the family I am telling you decided to rent their apartment in Barcelona to live for rent there. Logically, its members have also found work, so the amount of money that comes in is tremendous. They have gone from being unemployed in Spain living a very expensive life to having a job and living without hardships because life is very cheap on the other side of the pond.
If you want to try your luck, what I recommend is that you first try to make an exchange with an Argentine family . That’s much better before you start looking at apartments in Buenos Aires . In addition, the other family will not have to worry about looking at hostels in Barcelona , they will also be able to enjoy a house in conditions with all the confidence in the world. Try it and tell us!
