Best for: Buenos Aires base — the biggest currency-arbitrage city in the world right now.
Argentina's blue-dollar reality remains the structural story — published prices in pesos vastly overstate dollar-cost when you exchange via informal channels (~50% spread vs. official rate, post-Milei reforms). The DNV is real but most nomads use the 90-day visa-free path with cross-border resets. Buenos Aires is one of the world's great food/coffee/culture cities at currently-low dollar costs; Bariloche and Mendoza are the seasonal alternatives.
