Mahalo Chicos,

Thanks to my other half I have my own dressing room/office. I have this reasonable sized room with a rather large window-great for natural light-. As  I stare at the roof tops of our neighbor’s homes, I wonder how long does it take to finish a load of laundry? And on top of that what happens when the weather just sucks and you can’t hang your clothes out side to dry?

Granted, we were not completely elusive to this ‘old school’ way of doing laundry. Our first year here was a ‘year of discovery’. And we discovered that though it can have a romantic allure to a sun dried shirt and breeze fresh scented sheets, it sucked. Especially when the weather sucked.

So thanks to my loving other half I have been living in luxury. For this year-2008- we purchased an awesome laundry set that does the job with great results.

I can remember the time I studied in South Asia, said luxury was not affordable even for the wealthy so one had to hand wash all articles of clothing the really ‘old fashioned’ way, with a shallow bucket, stones and soap. Wow huh? Yeah I did that, surprised?

So, I would recommend that anyone that is planning on relocating to the beautiful country of Uruguay,  I would suggest that one of your first purchases be a very good quality laundry set. Trust me.

Ciao,
