Uruguay:
Diary of an Ex-pat - After living in the West Indies, former Yugoslavia
and Costa Rica, Uruguay seems normal. Montevideo is a city of about 1.5
million people. It is a combination of old and new, rather like Florida's
St. Augustine. It is at the same relative latitude as the North Carolina
Capes - the climate is perfect for me. On average it goes below freezing
about 2.5 days/year and above 90F/32C only 6 days per year. As we all know,
the Good Lord did not intend fat men in wheelchairs to live where it is
hot! 24-Aug-06

Uruguay:
Ex-Pat Diary Part 2 - Uruguay: A Southron in the Deep, Deep South
Part 2 of a three part series on Uruguay - Yesterday, one of my readers
asked a particularly sanguine question: "If Uruguay is so nice, why aren't
more Expats living there?" I was tempted to retort that the lack of too
many Expats might be at least one reason for Uruguay's "niceness", but
I refrain--though, like another ill-starred president, "I sinned in my
heart". 17-Feb-07

Uruguay:
Ex-Pat Diary Part 3 - HEALTH INSURANCE: What a winner! This is
probably the only civilized country in the world where I am insurable!
Somehow a brain tumor, back injuries, and recurring Staph infections scare
insurance companies away in other places--obviously not here........it
costs less to live in Uruguay than to eat in Switzerland. 16-Mar-07

Buying
Ranch Land In Uruguay - Europeans first arrive on holidays, attracted
by sun and beach. Slowly they discover that there is more than sun and
beach as they explore the country side, and the natural beauties of Bañados
del Este, a Natural Reserve designated by UNESCO. Increasing numbers of
nature and ecotourists and bird watchers are coming, mainly from northern
Europe to discover miles and miles of lonely oceanic beaches and, as they
say, a grasslands “paradise” full of fresh water and pristine nature. 05-Nov-05

Living
In Uruguay - What is it like to live in Uruguay? I would say, it’s
a mix of Barcelona and North Carolina. Okay, it could be a bit difficult
to imagine what such a mix could be like. But if you have an idea of what
Argentina is like, then you have a near picture of Uruguay. People and
culture are European Mediterranean, with a little dash of Gaucho in the
countryside. Spanish is the official language. The living standard is similiar
to Mexico, however, wealth is more evenly distributed amongst the population
in Uruguay. 18-Nov-04

Punta
del Este—why this is one of South America’s fastest-moving property markets
- Punta del Este is one of South America’s premier seaside resorts, and
its beautiful beaches, dazzling casinos, world-class restaurants, and upscale
shops have lured tourists for almost a century. And, perhaps best of all,
it’s located in Uruguay, one of Latin America’s First World countries;
a country with one of the continent’s highest standards of living, lowest
levels of corruption, and best infrastructures. 09-Oct-06
