The best lifestyle in the world for the price… This is the journal of The Southron, an American Emigrant from Florida who has spent the last decade living in the West Indies, former Yugoslavia and Costa Rica. He moved to Montevideo, Uruguay at the end of February 2006... |

Those of you from the States who recognize the intelligence, veracity, modesty, helpfulness and overall sterling character of US car dealers (in other words you’re deluded) will enjoy finding the same sort of car dealers here. Actually, there is a really big difference: In the States, they really do want to sell you a […]
If one is going to be sick I highly recommend having a fever.
A fever keeps you warm, it gently blends reality and hallucinations into a fabric that can keep you amused for hours; best of all, it’s is a wormhole in time that transports you from “before” to “after” without having to bother with all […]
While digging through the mound of e-mail that has collected in my inbox I found what might be a real gem: www.coastaluruguay.com.
The gentleman who sponsors that website, Steve Bowman, was kind enough to write me and tell me about. I took a look at it and realized that it has some useful information in an […]
In keeping with our rapidly developing tradition of finding any plausible reason to throw a party, the UruguayLiving crowd will be hosting a Saint Patrick’s Day party at our new offices this Saturday beginning at 9PM.
Directions at: http://www.sociedadsouthron.net/forums/ … f=12&t=546
The traditional green beer and Jameson’s Whiskey will be provided, as will the less traditional […]
Right now I have the greatest number of unanswered e-mails in my inbox I’ve ever had. Because of ongoing health problems I am not currently working the number of hours needed in order to take care of my business, UruguayLiving.com, and all my other commitments. Consequently I prioritize my time, respond to the most urgent […]
For more than a year Copperhead and I have told Uruguay’s story as seen through our own eyes on UruguayLiving.com and elsewhere. We have been, and continue to be amazed at the growing interest in this wonderful little country. Apparently we are not the only people who see something special here.
But, no matter […]
After months of waiting, the printed version of “The Southron’s Guide to Living in Uruguay” is finally available online at: http://www.lulu.com/content/579686.
This is a full-sized, 8½ x 11 inch paper back, with color covers and black-and-white inside. Because of its large size is much easier to read than the pocket-sized edition produced locally. The price for […]
Sunday at midnight, Uruguay goes off Summer time. This is the very same day the US goes to Daylight Savings. (European Summer Time does not go into effect until March 25, as I have been informed minutes ago.)What this means is that Uruguay will now be only 1 hour later than New York […]
Since at least Saturday evening, huge transport planes have been flying in to Montevideo. Until I read the news today I didn’t connect them to George Bush’s impending visit here. Apparently he cannot travel without a dozen heavy transport planes, Naval vessels, armored vehicles, and hundreds of security personnel.
I cannot help but wonder […]
The Lone Ranger had Tonto, Batman had Robin, the Cisco Kid had Pancho and The Southron now has Borko.
You may recall that on the 27th of January I reported that Borko finally had his visa application approved. However, due undoubtedly to the Southern Hemisphere Effect, it took more than a week for that visa […]
