We had our first encounter with Argentine bureaucracy over at the customs department… We naively ordered contact lenses from the US to be delivered by Fedex with the idea that, you know, they would be delivered to us…

Unfortunately, contact lenses are designated as for ‘human consumption’ by Argentine customs, which means that unless you’re willing to go out to the airport, spend at least a day of your time, hire a customs broker, fill out endless forms, and spend an arm and a leg to get the damn things… You’re better off calling it a loss and moving on with your life, which is what we’ve decided to do…
