Odelizza Life of a US Expat in South America

Oi!

Tudo Bem? Down town Colonia del Sacramento located in Uruguay is often referred to as ‘Old Town’ ‘Old City’ or ‘Colonia by locals and expats. Its actually the first city in Uruguay and most of the architecture,cobble stone streets, towers, and walls are still maintained by the government. Its a very well know tourist must see in Uruguay.

Myself along with my other half, and our New York friends took a short drive to Old Town for dinner and to appreciate the sights. Its was pleasant. There were’nt as many tourist at the time. So If you’d like to visit Old Town, my suggestion would be from October-March. December and January having the heaviest in tourist traffic.

Friends’ Campo at Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay #2

Ola,

Here are some more snap shots of our friends’ campo located at Colonia in Uruguay. Their campo is very secluded and takes a trip to get to, but the peace and quiet was worth it. Even though we live in Montevideo, which is the capital of Uruguay and the main dwelling of most people, with the exception of construction noise its not that busy. But having stayed a weekend at their place, well now I know what quiet really is.

Odeliza travel to Colonia, Uruguay

Oi!

There is a decent amount of Expats from around the globe that station their selves in Colonia del Sacramento in Uruguay. I suppose it is because of the quiet, near the boats to travel to Argentina, and rather secluded from everyone else.

My fiancee along with Midori, our Labrador, took a trip to a friend’s campo or ranch in Colonia. It was pleasant, very still, and really really quiet.

 Of course I am comparing this to the past two winters in Uruguay. A lot of locals are agreeing with me.
