Venezuelans fled economic crisis in their home country to find themselves in the midst of one in Argentina
In the last few years around 4.3 million Venezuelans have reportedly left behind a Latin American nation in economic ruin.
“Life became something very complicated, things such as acquiring food such as rice, pasta, oil, sugar, bread flour and the lack of electricity, water and gas supply further complicated daily life,” says Michael Eyzell, a 27-year-old Venezuelan Systems Analyst of his former life back in Merida. In Argentina he has made a new life with his sister and cousin in the capital, Buenos Aires.
Venezuelans say they are beginning to sense similar economic troubles that they thought they had left behind. Inflation sits around 54 percent, there's significant currency devaluation and a drop in real wages - as well as perceived political instability ahead of the presidential elections. A local study found close to half of Venezuelans survive on 15,000 pesos or less per month.
As Argentina goes to the polls at the end of October, now Venezuelans are keeping close tabs on who will take charge of the Casa Rosada, the presidential office.Marines shares some of this sentiment and has concerns about the political direction of Argentina.
