Answer 2

beyond the obvious like learning Spanish...

You may want to open a bank account when you are living there.  Bring a lot of info with you from your bank at home.  It will make it a lot easier to get going once there.  Talk to your bank at home before you leave.

Answer 3

I'm very ashamed to say this, but one thing that always annoys newcomers, is that we are rarely on time.  And when I say rarely I mean never.  Only the movies, the mass and the baseball games start on time.

So, my advice to you is be patient.  

Other than that is a great place to live!  It is a small price to pay!

Answer 4
