Very early this past Thursday morning I returned home to Uruguay after a 12 day trip to Panama. I had not been there in four years and was interested to compare it to Uruguay since it had been the prime alternative to moving here.
Panama was incredible! It was the most dynamic city I […]
One of the things that seems to amaze many of the Uruguayos I meet is that I left Costa Rica to come here. After all, doesn’t Costa Rica have better weather? Isn’t it a world famous Expat haven where more than 100,000 gringos have found a home? How could anyone leave there for here?

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.

PEOPLE ARE BEING SENT TO MONTEVIDEO FROM INTERNATIONAL LIVING’S “URUGUAY EXPERTS” (in BA of course) AND ARE EXPECTING TO FIND APARTMENTS ON THE RAMBLA FOR U$S20,000!

Living in Uruguay is a story worth telling and I have decided to do that even more completely than on this blog.
