Uruguay seems very small because it is surrounded by giant neighbors and it only has 3.5 million people, but its territory is larger than England, Portugal, and Switzerland, just to name a few.
nice comment!
That's incorrect. England is bigger than Uruguay.
@@nathanmerritt1581 Engoand 130,279 Km squared. Uruguay 181,034 km squared. Make your own math!
Of course, England, I am not talking about the United Kingdom which encompasses other islands.
@@nathanmerritt1581 lnglaterra es una cosa Reino Unido es otra cosa abarca todas las islas.
Uruguay is on my list of possible countries I'd like to move to when I leave the US.
i see the uruguayan dream
Me too. I actually woke up from a dream in 2017 and when I woke up that name had been on my head. I'd never researched it or heard of it save from old classes back in school and that was geography so I was confused as to how that name just popped up in my head.....we were already thinking of living as ex pats but didn't know where so after the dream we decided to do some research and I was pleasantly suprised and very interested
Do it, and if u looking for peace, go for Jose Ignacio or any place in Rocha.
Same 4 us. Can't wait
"on my list of possibles", "like to" and "when I" make me believe this is a definite maybe for you. Lol
the eagles are there to scare the thousands of pigeons that were crapping all over the place , that Square used to be packed with flying rats. 20 years ago someone had the great idea to train eagles and released them daily over the area , it worked like a charm.
Make sense! They are killing too many things tho
very interesting video, not many travel videos in this country. I am excited to see more of this unique country, seems like a cool secret country if that makes sense.
It's not ...most expats leave again...usually broke and with no wishes to ever return ...worst place on earth
Matt Passin whenever you want, you are welcome to our country Uruguay
Yes. We’re learning so much about Uruguay.
a luisito comunica le tengo una cruz gigante
Uruguay: He's a little confused, but he's got the spirit
I was in Uruguay 11 years ago and loved it there. I don't remember seeing so much graffiti, though, which I am not crazy about.
Yes. We saw the same in Italy.
With way too much graffiti now, the buildings look filthy as hell
@@joaquinpampliega5722 It's very trashy looking, like undesireable areas of Los Angeles.
It's the sane the world over.
Definitely on the ol' bucket list... I've been interested in Uruguay for many years, it should pair nice with my trip to Patagonia in 2 years.
As a historian and also a Uruguayan-American, I really enjoyed this video. The historical accuracies and depictions of what moderan day Uruguay is like made me really appreciate this vlog! Awesome video, Saludos!
Thanks much! Give it a share!
Uruguay is Spanish colony right?
@@familyandfriends3519 incorrect. It gained independence from Brazil in 1825. The territory now known as Uruguay was at one point under Spanish control yes, but Uruguay didnt secede from Spain nor fight a war against Spain like other South American nations did in their fight for independence.
@@Cardozo1900 but it was colonized by Spain in 1500s they were know as the United provinces of Rio de la planta after getting independence from Spain the Portuguese invaded it rightfully the Spanish got it back the Netherlands isn't Spanish but they got independence from Spain
@@Cardozo1900 I mean colonization the Spanish colonized Uruguay which is true but Uruguay was part of the United provinces of Rio de la planta which they got independence from Spain in a way Uruguay did get independence from Spain has being part of united provinces of Rio de la planta
I love that eagle patrol the skies over Montevideo because of the beautiful trees for their homes lol
Nice video on Uruguay! I look forward to more.
Hola. Con respecto a lo que te paso con el dron tiene su razón.
En esa zona no se permiten los drones porque esta el edificio de la presidencia. Ese edificio de vidrio es donde esta el Presidente del Uruguay. Teníamos un problema de plagas con las palomas en las plazas entonces se comenzó un programa de cetrería , se introducen aves de rapiña para controlar las colonias de palomas. Y a la par se vio que estas aves también atacan a los drones,por eso siguen estando en la plaza Independencia y no en otras plazas.
Hello. Regarding what happened to you with the drone, there is a reason.
Drones are not allowed in that area because it is the presidency building. That glass building is where the President of Uruguay is. We had a pest problem with pigeons in the squares so a falconry program began, birds of prey were introduced to control the pigeon colonies. And at the same time it was seen that these birds also attack drones, which is why they are still in Independencia Square and not in other squares.
Nice video of my city ❤️sorry about your drone
Hope you had enjoy your trip
Que buen video, saludos desde Uruguay :D sigue así!
What a good video, greetings from Uruguay :D keep it up!
I've lived here for 5 years, and you do a great job introducing Montevideo Uruguay
Is it safe?
@@ralphramirez1979 yes
Palacio Salvo has a twin in Buenos Aires, Palacio Barolo (in Avenida de Mayo), same architect and pretty much the same building.
It’s in my other video!
@@TalesFromTheRoad yup you’re well informed!
Bienvenido a Uruguay amigo !! Gracias por el video❤
Love Yerba Matte!! It’s so delicious!! But better yet, it’s amazingly good for you!
Very useful video Fully explained
God bless you
My dream to visit this beautiful country❤😊
You don't understand Mate` because you're not from Uruguay or Argentina. Just because you don't understand it doesn't make it a strange custom. That's the joy of Travel my friend!
I am from the UK and I totally understand Mate and drink it every day.
I’m heading , for the first time , to Uruguay for Christmas and New Years. I can’t wait !!! Staying in Jose Ignacio for a week also.
I'm in Uruguay currently, came to.look foe a plan b for leaving the USA. It's mid December and the beginning of summer, when it rains it's a monsoon, it's quite windy (not my favorite) and the scenery is mid ok. But it's also very peaceful and calm, the people are super friendly. If your coming from The States it is not cheap at all but it's also still growing so get in soon if you want to ride the wave
What do you consider not cheap? I'm from US and Uruguay is peaking my interest to live or vacation... how much is avg home price and avg apartment 2 bedroom cost?
@@robertreitmanjr4413 most houses were in the 500k and up, a 1 bedroom condo by the beach was 250k and up. Dinner was $25 to $50 a plate. I live in Denver and it's comparable to here.
Paraguay is similar in freedom and safety but cheaper
@@pinnacleroofing9841 Agreed, though I'll say that it depends on where you're looking for properties. I found them cheaper than in the states or at least you get more bang for your bucks here. Almost everything else it's just as expensive as the US though. For example, a cup of capuccino at the coffee shop rounds out to about 4-5 bucks, that's what I was paying in the states. Eating out it's not cheap, maybe the small street vendors are cheaper. Getting things imported from abroad is also extremely expensive.
Argentina IS cheap however, but it's got its cons and pros, like everything.
I am Japanese and I am planning to study abroad in Uruguay.
Thanks for the explanation about Uruguay.
Very interesting tour. They sure like their mate.
Thank you!
Nice video dude. thanks for showing what life looks like there
No lo entiendo porque no se inglés pero espero y te haya gustado mi país divino 🤙
I'm a native English speaker. The vlogger speaks highly of Uruguay. He spoke briefly of it's history and culture. He pointed out some of the foods common to Uruguayans. The worst thing he said about Uruguay is that Uruguay is the highest priced country in the region.

Gracias 😊
Good overview, and quite accurate. Just a couple of things. What you were drinking was Grappa Miel not grappa. It is a liqueur made by adding honey to grappa. You can order traditional grappa as well and you will find it identical to the Italian original. As far as your lunch, I think there may have been some communication issues. The lettuce on your plate was simply a garnish, if you order a salad with your meal you get a traditional salad. You could have also ordered other sides as well. I've never seen anyone get plain rice as a side in a restaurant in Uruguay. As far as mate goes...well it's a national obsession (much like football) that is unmatched even in other mate drinking nations such as Argentina. You can go into a restaurant and ask for hot water and they will happily fill your thermos. There are even vending machines that disperse hot water. It is drunk in all seasons, at all times of day and locations. You will even find it being drunk by politicians while at the national legislature during debates.
But do they have coffee? ☕
@@terryashley4674 yes they do
Great info…thanks!
Thank you such an intelligent person and CZcamsr. Thanks.
I'm curious to know if the negative comments are coming from Uruguayans. You described the country's customs, cultural traditions and heritage quite accurately. I saw nothing wrong really.
uruguayans are typically not critical of their country or themselves. very strange culture. i would trust a nigerian scammer more than i would anyone local after 5 years of living there
Hola soy de Colonia del sacramento Uruguay y como en todos los videos de CZcams hay de todo tipo de gente y el odiador de turno todo le sirve para molestar pero la mejor manera de conocer mi país es viniendo a verlo y sentirlo personalmente saludos y te esperamos acá en mi ciudad qué te va a dejar con la boca abierta todo el tiempo buscala en Google y verás
Looks fun!
Good break down of Uruguay
That story about Drone #2 was unexpected and had me 'literally' LOL - good add to the video! 😂
Lovely thanks
Hi, about the "dron incident" 🙂 , it was probably a falcon or a hawk, not an eagle.
I lived in Uruguay for 3 years back in the 80's - it looks much the same! Your video brought back good memories - there in the cafe, man, - it could have been 1988!. Yerba Mate actually gives you a slight narcotic buzz if you keep on drinking it - it doesn't get you high, or stoned, or wrecked, but it definitely stimulates - and it makes you think differently about things and focuses your attention on stuff, but you need quite a few refills to get there, hence the flasks! One thing I didn't see was the political posters everywhere, which is a great improvement - the leftist parties used to really degrade the city with literally millions of posters pasted on the walls, beautiful old buildings, the sides of fountains and the plinths of statues all would get defaced - it seems they no longer do that. Uruguay was really safe too, a very non-violent population (when I was there). It's also as flat as a pancake - its highest point only being 500 meters above sea level. It was hard to make a good living there though, all your basic needs would be covered on a local salary, but it's really difficult to start with nothing - for an average Joe there's no surplus of funds, so you can't save nor invest and car ownership is for the middle classes, - or at least, that's the way it was when I was there. After a few years I just felt as if I were on a treadmill - lots of work, but not advancing, so I had to leave. It wasn't always like that though, I think between 1900-1960, the economy was good, and I hope its in better times now.
I´m the guy with beard that smoke marihuana when you comment it !!.. this is so funny. I see your video just by odd xD (I was drinking wine too, jeje. the reason I love Uruguay) greetings !!!
haha coooool bro! Suerte!
Why English talkers CZcamsrs, cant researsh a little bit when talking about architecture. 0:40 Thats not Colonial nor Renancence, but Neo-Classical architecture, 300 years after Colonialism and Renacence.
Is it safe over there
Excellent video about my city, sorry for the bitter comments of some uruguayans, who sometimes can be very negatives. About the architecture is more Italian and French style and a lot art deco buildings ,more than Spanish or Portuguese style.
8:58 Since they hold one, is there a roadside vendor selling maté?
Not really, you just buy the packet in the store.
Has the tagging been cleaned up and outlawed? It's a big deterrent.
Good video. Liked your comparisons between Uruguay and the surrounded countries. I would like to have heard more in your history section on the Afro Uruguayans and how Montevideo, was a required port of call for slave ships bringing Africans to the Río de la Plata region.
thanks for watching and the nice coments!
lol luv yor lil theory on market protection, if thts the case y r argentina and brazil cheaper do thy have deregulated economy's?
Hot water, or cold water like in Paraguay?
hot water!!!!
Well it’s expensive, but
They have the highest minimum wage in the region
Funny how that works.
Thank you! You made me want to come back to my "paisito"
Don't go away without having a chivito!!! ❤
URUGUAY you had me at grilled meat.
Proud to be Uruguayan-American!
Same 🙌🏼
Hi are you live in Uruguay?
I wish i can go there too soon with you🥰
re: maté, you do actually move the bombilla. It depends on the person serving but all the old timers including my Uruguayan parents move the bombilla to get varying degrees of maté flavor intensity. Whoever told you they don't move the Bonilla was probably talking about their own particular style or they're just not good at it. Like eggs, many, many people make eggs but I've had terrible eggs and delicious eggs... I happen to make delicious eggs of course. I've had people serve me amazing maté and of course, terrible maté and it all comes down to how you manage water and bombilla placement and how you tend to the llerba throughout the process... it's all about the process since there's obviously only two ingredients for the most part. Great video never the less.
It's mate, not "maté".
"maté" means "I killed". The beverage is called "mate".
Im from Buenos Aires, and i only move the bombilla before refilling the mate.
Slight tap on the side of the bombilla with the thermo, move it 5mm to the side. And use that gap to pour the water to the bottom.
Thats all the moving you need.
@@Coyote27981 I was just in Uruguay visiting family and there were several different styles of prepping and serving and moving or not moving the bombilla. Like all things in life, there’s not just one way to do things. It’s worth exploring other possibilities as it’s those explorations that lead to new discoveries. Thanks for sharing you method. Try moving your bombilla around the mate over the course of your drinking time, there may a something of value there… or not.
I've been there. I had a great time.
On découvre un pays et une ville assez peu connus avec des pratiques particulières ou originales. Désolée pour ton drone!
L'architecture de Montevideo dans les années 20, a beaucoup d'influence de la France. Toujours dans l'enseignement public, encore aujourd'hui le lycée s'appelle "Liceo" à la française.
You might want to check out Jon Levi’s channel about a precious civilisation that built these castle like buildings globally, keep an open mind and enjoy your altered perception of reality. 😜
How is Uruguay for vegans? Last month we had a two-week holiday in Argentina: BA, Ushuaia, El Calafate, and back to BA. Foreign credit cards now provide the Dollar Blue rate. We were informed by our tour guide for the Recoleta Cemetary that Visa pays the blue dollar rate. We had to pay by card to enter the Recoleta Cemetary as they don't accept cash. I used my Visa card and discovered that I was only charged GBP 4.74 entrance fee to the Recoleta Cemetery. I then started to use my Visa card and discovered that I was getting an exchange rate of AR$340 to 1 US$. Which is not too different from the current blue rate of AR$380 to 1 US$. We found lots of vegan restaurants and most other restaurants have at least a vegetarian option. We did not starve during our Argentine holiday!
in Montevideo there are plenty of options for vegans, but its really expensive
no le entiendo nada, solo espero que este hablando bien de mi pais este gringo

el está hablando bien de Uruguay ( cosa que los uruguayos no hacemos cuando vamos a otros países), pero vos en tu ignorancia lo tratas de gringo...
A friendly correction to the vlog. Luis Suarez, beside being one of the most famous Uruguayan footballers, and Liverpool Football Club, he was famous for biting the opposition's defenders, something that he got fined, and banned from playing a few games, but, he didn't handle the ball. That was Diego Maradona from Argentina in a match against England in World Cup 1982. Maradona, later on went on to claim that it was God's hand that scored the goal that knocked England out of the competition.😁
I'm talking about the hand ball against Ghana in the world cup. They missed the free kick and Uruguay won in the end.
Robbed Ghana in the World Cup by handling the ball
It was a tactical foul and he was rightfully given a red card. No one was robbed. Player should have made the penalty kick.
Is it safe?
No it not, full of drugs, muggings, pick pockets and if you don't speak Spanish, you are screwed because no one speaks English
how do you have pretty good pronunciation of most of the place names except for "Uruguay"?
I would say the second smallest country in South America. The first one is Surinam
Well, if we ever get invaded at least we have eagles to destroy enemy drones.
That’s definitely something
Where can I donate a parrot drone for you?
What is a parrot drone friend
There is official DJI service in Montevideo. Try to repare your drone there.
I’m long gone! But thanks
Montevideo see you in September
No, not exactly cheap for gringos. Yes, safe it is - day or night. But it is affordable if you aren’t desperate
You're pissed ? imagine how pissed eagle was ?? lol, Cheers !
The first large building in your video is what we call the University of the Republic, which, by the way is free as the rest of the education right from kinder garden. Of course there are private options on all levels for the ones who decide to pay for it. Go figure.
You should have gone to Mercado del Puerto located by the Montevideo harbor. The foods( and grilled meats) are out of this world.
Another thing : although Uruguay export high quality rice, Uruguayans are not too crazy about it though it is consumed there, not as much as pasta which is another very important staple in our diet.
You don't seem to have tried pizza which is something to make a video about it.
Regarding of how expensive Uruguay could be compared to other Latin American countries, one has to consider what one gets in terms of quality. You can make it more affordable if you stay with some locals and live like they do.
No country in the world can give you all they can offer if you just go there for a few days, Uruguay is not exception.
By the way : Uruguay is the second smallest country in S. America after Guyana, though is larger than Holland.
Nice video, do go back and expend more time in there, there's much more than Montevideo to experience.
Greetings from Toronto.
Everyone pronounces Uruguay differently.
Beautiful video.👍
7:00 It was actually annexed by Brazil for something like 15/20 years I believe, in the early 1800's. It's an important topic in brazilian history since it was when the cisplatine war happened. It got it's independence from Brazil in 1820's but I believe that Argentina kept claiming Uruguay territory until... I believe it was England, not sure, but some european country brokered the treaty that made Uruguay independent.
Yes, Uruguay won eventually its independence thanked to U.K.
Yes but Uruguay was always a Spanish colony
In mythology The Ourea were the primeval gods or spirits of the mountains , and the word for mountains in Greek.Uraguay means a country of no mountains . Poros is one of the greek words for sea, Paraguay means no sea .
Para que nunca más tengas problema entre Uruguay y Mejico una bien fácil, te ases un buen asado con tus amigos mirando un partido o contando unos chistes y ahí nunca más te olvidaras quien es quien.
Good start with Montevideo pronounced correctly😅
ví más mates que personas, lmao🧉🇺🇾
You got the music wrong.
I came thinking this guy was gonna explain whether Uruguay is cheap and safe not get a slow convoluted explanation of the damn history
When I was there, I saw lots of Americans, and I didn't know why, maybe because it's a tourist place..?
A lot of people retire there because of the no taxes
What destroyed your dron wasn't an eagle - at list the big bird you show in the picture - This is a carancho. It only eat already dead animals, and the sheep's eye balls when they can't get up after the rain because the wool is wet and is too heavy.
Wow!
That's new to me
No entendí nada pero gracias jaja saludos

Uruguay is not the smallest country in South America for one, second it's not the little cousin of Argentina and even less of Brasil. It's condescending to say a country that most people don't know, when you realize it has been around for almost 200 years, it says a lot about most people's education, doesn't it? Also its not a short trip from Buenos Aires, its full of history and offers so many things, that Argentina can't offer. Next time I'd advise you to learn about the country's history a bit more, before you make those comments, specially if you have people that listen to you. Thank you.
Jessica, you know not everything is personal right? Maybe you're offended, I guarantee most Uruguayans aren't. I not in any way was trying to diminish anything. How about you find some empathy in your heart and put some good out into the world. Please don't take my words out of context. Also don't watch my channel, seems you can't handle it. No, Thank you.
Thank you, Jessica for putting this this "want a be" Christopher Columbus in his place. I live thousands of miles away from Uruguay and know a lot more than him about your wonderful country. Also, this info. Uruguay is bigger than any country in Central America or the Caribbean.
You are damn right!!
