Uruguay: Moving to Montevideo, Uruguay:
Jean12345 is one hundred percent correct! Anyone who says otherwise is either in the honeymoon phase after moving to Uruguay OR they have not spent enough time here recently OR haven't fully grasped the culture. I am also a native from Uruguay. It is impressive all the glorification that exists on these forums about my country. Yes, there are many beautiful things here. But to move here from the US (where I lived for two decades, working and going to school) to Uruguay would be very difficult. Even many Uruguayans have returned after decades away only to leave again because it is not the country they remember. It would not be a simple, low-key life. It would be a life with many struggles, frustrations, and hardships. I'm glad people like Jean12345 have the morality to tell the truth, rather than try to sell a fantasy lifestyle, which I see much too often these days. Don't fall prey to that. Please, spend a year (at least) here to see first hand. But, when you do, remember to hide your wallet and don't carry a purse! :) And, yes, get used to a view behind window bars.
