As a Uruguayan I thank you both for this wonderful interview, Chris has understood that life is about the little things, he sees them and enjoys them, that is the Uruguayan dimension, that's what it's all about
What a perceptive comment, Sebastian. Thank you so much. Chris is really in tune with Uruguay. It was such a pleasure to talk to him. Did you see the video we did together for Uruguay XXI? If you liked this one, you'll appreciate it a lot too czcams.com/video/eCWk2E35F4A/video.html
Lived in Montevideo for 7 years and miss not being there everyday. I have traveled alot and to me Uruguay is the only place I would be happy to live there forever. Chris was lucky to be stuck in the best country to settle down in the world. And I really mean settle down, a new and relaxing life experience. Beautiful land, food, people and life!!Vive Uruguay!!!!
Thanks for commenting. I'm not sure if it's the best for everyone, but as a Brit living here for the last 20+ years, who chose Uruguay for quality of life for myself and my family, I'm very glad I made the move.
for sure? i'm french and after my travel in uruguay, i love this country and i want expat in uruguay for my pastry business what's your point of view? i have a little very very good friends in uruguay
Even though you said that watching the sunset is not possible in all the country, it' more common that you would think, as most of Colonia, Soriano and a big chunk of the Rio Uruguay coastal cities have their own version of the "rambla" facing west on the river, and sunsets are full of Uruguayans having mate and watching the sun going down. It's almost as Uruguayan as the mate (they go together)
A few things are not clear about the DN visa. I'm truly interested and I'd appreciate some more clarity since I haven't found answers anywhere on the internet. 1. If I apply online and have someone help in paying the fee locally, will the granted DN visa allow me to enter Uruguay or do I still need to get a tourist visa? 2. Will the DN visa allow me to sign documents such as a rent lease, opening a bank account, and other administrative things like any other resident? Or is it just like a tourist visa but with a longer stay period? 4. If I apply today, will the granted DN visa period of 180 days begin immediately or starting a chosen date that I pick in the future? Thank you!
Hi there, I checked with Uruguay XXI (the national investment agency who are promoting the DN visa). They recommend you write to them mailto:info@liveinuruguay.uy @UruguayXXIGUB
Dear Guru'Guay (or anyone else who can answer :) )! I'm looking for a long term home in Latin-America and I've just seen Uruguay's nomad visa but I couldn't find many important information about it so I thought you might be able to help me. I'm looking for a country where I can become some kind of resident (it's not important that it's temporal or permanent) and I can incorporate a company or become self-employed. I've just read about the nomad visa in Uruguay and it looks pretty nice but some things are not 100% clear for me. Legally is it a proper temporary residency or just some kind of "superlong tourist visa". Is sole proprietorship (self employed status) possible with it (as long as I have only foreign clients)? And as you who are in the country, how do you see how stable is the program (politically)? I'm in the situation that I could have a proper temporary residence permit (I have passive income much above the requirements) but its obviously seems more complicated so if its granting more or less the same I would go for the nomad visa. Thank you very much for your help and ideas.

Awww! No chance to come back??
Uruguay is, by far, the best choice for expats.

Amazing interview! Great working with you guys!

Thanks for commenting. My understanding of what Chris was saying is just what you’ve underlined. Cheers!
Yummy Chris 😍. If you guys have the chance sunsets over the Rio Uruguay are also pretty nice.
Thanks! Chris has been all over, including Colonia! For sure those sunsets are amazing (maybe you saw my short from last week??)
I like Urguay by watching your videos. I plan to visit in the future.
That's really great to hear. It's not for everyone (no place is, right?) but definitely we're fans 🇺🇾
Thank you for the information.....
Pleasure!
The best sunsets I’ve ever seen were in Mexico- however I’ve never been to Uruguay!
Maybe it's time to come check them out and compare! 🌞🇺🇾
@@GuruGuay Indeed!
He should definitely see Colonia del Sacramento sunsets 😎
Great recommendation!
Very good decision, I am from California and I am moving to Uruguay next year, contact me here with anything, greetings.
Welcome!

@@GuruGuay thank you! Do I email them in English? Or should I address them in Spanish?
If you can handle Spanish, then go for it!@@hatimotarid
@@GuruGuay perfect I will do that! Also, I’ve joined the Facebook group and my request hasn’t been approved yet.
As a New Yorker named “Kris” I see this as a sign lol!
❤️❤️❤️ 🇺🇾 🇺🇾 🇺🇾

Hi there, answers to pretty much all your questions here: www.guruguay.com/living-in-uruguay/
Someone told me Uruquay is not good to stay rather than choose Chile instead.
They are very different countries and some people will prefer one over the other.
