About jacovo

My plans are to move full time to Uruguay in the next 12-18 months. I have lived in Europe and in Indonesia and have traveled extensively in Southeast Asia. Jacob

Advice for New Expats

travel lightly and do not take a lot of "things". As someone once said, "Our possessions own us, we do not own them." How true! Live in the country for a year before you buy and DO learn the language. Be patient, with yourself and with others and see each day as a new adventure, cuz it is. Jacob

I would love to live in...

Uruguay

Uruguay: cars & Diesel:

I was wondering if anyone could tell me if diesel cars are widely available in Montevideo and the cost of diesel fuel? What types of diesel cars are for sale and is there a plentiful supply of used cars? What about the cost of a used car that runs on diesel? thanks for the help. Jacovo
