    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!

    Ep 11 | Buying Property in Uruguay as a Foreigner: What You Need to Know 🇺🇾🏠

    Can foreigners buy property in Uruguay? The short answer is yes — and in this episode, I’m breaking down what the process actually looks like from a real-life, expat perspective. From legal rights and ownership rules to working with real estate agents, escribanos, and navigating rural vs. city property, I share what we learned buying property in Uruguay as foreigners. We’ll talk timelines, expectations, common surprises, and how the process here is very different from buying property in the U.S.. If you’re considering investing, relocating, or simply curious about owning property abroad, this episode gives you a clear, honest overview of what to expect. No hype. Just practical, real lived experience. Have a question about what life is like in Uruguay?
