Zen Shiatsu Massage

Is an invitation to discover relief
and temper through contact.

This therapy has its origin in Japan.
The session experience opens up new perspectives to improve health of body, mind and feelings in general. It connects body awareness and relaxation.
This is a healthy way of rewarding oneself, finding the balance among the negative consequences of accelerated rhythms and the stress resulting from modern city life, recovering the ability to breathe deeply, experiencing joints flexibility and multiple movement possibilities, stepping into a state of peace and plenitude.

Volunteer in a Shantytown in Buenos Aires
"See, Understand, Uncover and Volunteer"
Our project looks for people who want to explore the other side of Buenos Aires. For those who want to understand more about social exclusion or to see a different way of living!

Voluntario Global has a really strong presence and focus in shantytown community centres in Buenos Aires.

Voluntario Global's Mission Statement: We are a community-based organisation who creates voluntary work projects. We work in grassroots development in the shantytowns that surround the Buenos Aires capital city. Our main objective is to promote lasting changes in the lives of the segregated families.

We have one day programs (for your first time) and long term as well. Everyone can help with their own skills and in different areas. English translation is available.

YesBA in La Nacion!!
Llegan como turistas, pero se quedan a vivir en Buenos Aires

Cada vez hay mas exranjeros residentes

Ya no es una escena poco frecuente. Encontrar a un alemán comprando clavitos en una ferretería de Villa Crespo. O a un sueco pagando con tickets en un supermercado chino de Monserrat. O a un Philadelphia boy que atiende su celular a la voz de “¡ah! ¿qué hacés, che? Estoy un poco complicado ahora... ¿te puedo llamar en un rato?”, como Jonah Schwartz, de 25 años, el más porteño de los norteamericanos. Llegó al país para estudiar español, en un bar conoció a un grupo de música indie-country llamado Los Alamos y se sumó para tocar la mandolina. Ahora vive en Buenos Aires, de su música y de dar clases de inglés.

Todos ellos son expatriados. Es decir, extranjeros que llegaron al país como turistas o visitantes y que, por distintos motivos, decidieron quedarse a vivir en Buenos Aires, al menos por un tiempo. Así se definen a sí mismos. Para ellos la palabra expatriado no tiene la connotación del exilio forzoso. Es un término más romántico que los hace sentir cercanos a Hemingway y que les da sentido de pertenencia y también un punto de encuentro.

La Sociedad de Jóvenes Expatriados de Buenos Aires (YesBA, por sus siglas en inglés), por ejemplo, agrupa a muchos de los que emigraron a la ciudad. Entre sus socios figuran 4700 nombres. Todos los meses organizan una fiesta de expats , a la que asisten unas 200 personas.
