Hello, Mike: I've been here about 4 1/2 years now, in Atlantida - a 1 1/2 hour bus ride to Montevideo, and have an office building with a residential space in it near the bus route, available for short term renting, even with a dog - one ... Read More

I've been in Uruguay from the States for more than 4 years now and have constant dealings with immigrants to Uruguay. It may be that for some, the process is as easy as Daniel describes. For me it was not, though I finally managed to get through ... Read More

Believe me - I have looked everywhere but never found one. This could be a great business opportunity, but a person who wanted to start such a restaurant would have to cater to the ex pat community primarily because the locals tend to not like the ... Read More

Sorry about the mixup. And welcome. Absolutely there is a group that meets in Atlantida, or nearby I should say - Parque de Plata. This was the group I started in 2009. We meet at Hotel Via Park on the Rambla near Calle 11, Parque de Plata - just ... Read More

Hi, Ginger: I'm afraid you've already left the country, which I just heard today from a mutual friend, but it was great to meet you and your daughter, and I'm glad you got to meet us at one of our bi-monthly meetings - the first and third Thursdays ... Read More

There is no safe place. There is no free place. There are only degrees of danger, degrees of enslavement, and degrees of contamination of the environment. I decided on Uruguay in 2009 as the lesser of all the evils and am still satisfied I made ... Read More

Thanks for agreeing with me, Victor Traveler. That's always nice. There is a Montevideo meeting for ex pats every Sunday at noon at the restaurant, De Picos Pardos, at Pablo de Maria 1353 esq. Rodo. Uruguayos and others who mainly speak Spanish ... Read More

Kudos to iprickett for home schooling. I've heard many stories about the difficulties the government imposes for those who choose this option, and have heard that ex pats may actually be left alone to home school more so than natives. I don't know ... Read More

I know enough French to beg to differ with ventdusud as to how easy it is to get the license, or that you only have three months to do so. Maybe if you lived in France first. But coming from North America, other than the fact that I could use my ... Read More

Hi, Loner18: I see it's just you and me interested in this discussion. I've been told repeatedly that as far as Uruguayans, they already have their friends and family, and they don't need or want any new ones. I finally speak pretty decent Spanish ... Read More

Paraguay is starting to sound a little tempting, mainly because it's hot and energy and real estate costs low, if I'm reading correctly. As an interim solution, because going into this fourth winter in Uruguay is already taking a toll on me, I've ... Read More

Yes, there are many ex pat groups in Uruguay. These are the ones I am aware of: Every Sunday in Montevideo at noon: Fellini Restaurant located at Jose Mart铆 3408 esq. Benito Blanco, in Pocitos or Restaurant De Picos Pardos - Pablo de Maria, ... Read More

James, the reasons you give for leaving North America are shared by many, including me. I used to practice law there and after several decades of trying to use the system to extract a little justice for clients, found that it just couldn't be done. ... Read More
