Chilling in Uruguay
So I went to Uruguay. The way Lonely Planet opens it’s chapter on one place, Punta Del Este, is “Ok, here’s the plan: wax it, buff it at the gym and then plonk it on the beach“. And how right they were. So, I may not have followed their instructions but I did have a sun filled few days at what is known as South America’s St. Tropez.
People in Uruguay are unbelievably friendly. Myself and an Austrian girl were trying to make our way through town with a guidebook, and every time we stopped for more than 5 seconds someone would come over offering help!
Not a whole lot happened. I strolled, sunbathed, paid ridiculous amounts for a dorm bed. I was going to scribble on about nothing for the usual 1500 words. But I though photos would be more apt this time.
Just in case anyone would be unsure of what religion most people are here, they’re this to welcome you…
A trolley, just driving by….
The beach. Pretty cool huh?
Sometimes hard to believe this place is in South America!
Some more of the beautiful people.
