Uruguay Utopia? You be the architect (or the inspector)

8 years ago
I wonder if anyone is willing to expand on the topic begun by Carlitos, Kimbo, and CrazyFarmer on the the thread "Other good choices if we can't move to Uruguay?"

Very briefly: Carlitos suggested a farm community mixing expats and natives.

CrazyFarmer suggested some reasons to be cautious about such an arrangement.

My additional question, beyond exploring the subject brought up, is were money no object for any of you what would be your ideal design of a Uruguayan Utopia? If you had some money? If you had no money? Or would your utopia even be in Uruguay?

It is a bit whimsical but I think it could be a very practical exercise that could be helpful for sharing ideas, potentially linking people, informing those in Uruguay and those of us looking in about a lot of practical information, and helping us all perfect our individual homes, plans and futures... dare I say maybe even the world.

I plan to offer my own thoughts which I have been turning over in my head for some time when I have a chance to type them out. To start: I believe in collaboration and think that a good form of Carlitos' idea is not only a great idea but is arguably the only way. I also appreciate the concerns of CrazyFarmer. I think the key to the future of relatively free humanity may involve a way of overcoming those very real obstacles (for Christians or those who appreciate the logic of the philosophy of Jesus I would think there is a great spiritual need to overcome these concerns as well). Those with money, those without, natives, expats and so on, I think all have something to offer each other and I think all suffer in very real ways from not finding a way in which all can work together for the gain of all. More to follow from me. Any and all ideas, plans, thoughts, concerns, hopes, dreams, stories of successes and failures on this topic encouraged and appreciated!
