    Ep 15 | Why You Should Hire a Relocation or Immigration Specialist for Residency in Uruguay 🇺🇾

    One of the biggest mistakes foreigners make when applying for residency in Uruguay is trying to do everything alone. In this episode, I explain why hiring a relocation or immigration specialist can save you time, stress, and costly mistakes. Applying for residency in Uruguay can seem straightforward — but the reality is often more complex than expected. Professional help is worth it and so many successful applicants choose not to go it alone. Life abroad doesn’t have to be perfect — but it should be tranquil. 🌿 Subscribe, leave a review, join our Substack, & follow on social!

    Ep 13 | Why January is the Most Expensive Month of the Year in Uruguay 🇺🇾

    January might feel like peak summer vacation in Uruguay — but financially? It’s the most expensive month of the year. And if you’re living here as a foreigner, it can catch you completely off guard. No one warns you about January. Between vacations, taxes, school costs, and utilities, this one month can quietly drain your budget. In this episode, I break down why January hits so hard: summer vacations, paid employee leave, school-related childcare costs, car taxes, property taxes, insurance renewals, and higher utility bills during peak heat. From understanding Uruguay’s vacation culture to navigating government taxes and seasonal expenses, this episode offers a clear, real-life look at what to expect — especially if you’re living here as a foreigner or planning a move. If you’ve ever wondered why your January budget feels stretched in Uruguay, this episode connects the dots. 🇺🇾 If this episode helped you, like, subscribe, and share your experience in the comments — I read them all!
