Amo ese pais. Lo he recorrido bastante. Montevideo me gusta, pero mi ciudad preferida es Piriapolis, a pesar q Colonia de Sacramento la parte vieja me enamoro. He viajado x años a Punta del Este q me encanta, hasta q fui a Piriapolis y senti q esa ciudad Uruguaya era mi lugar. Buen video.
Like 90 👍 Hello from Naples, Florida. An awesome visit to Uruguay. We enjoyed spending some time with you guys. Thank you so much for sharing this part of the world with us.
Hello! I am enjoying your videos! I have been to Argentina once and fell in love with the country. Unlike going to Europe where most everyone speaks English, I found it very taxing not speaking any Spanish. Do either of the two of you speak Spanish? Regarding the trip to Montevideo, was the bus from Colonia to Montevideo at the port where the ferry docked?
Thank you so much! Glad you like them 😊 We experienced the same thing. I think the clue is to try and pick up certain words and phrases. Nemanja has been trying to learn Spanish through Duolingo. Yeah, we bought the ticket that included the bus to Montevideo. The buses were waiting right outside the ferry terminal. The company we used is called Buquebus.
Yeah, the hotel we stayed at was the Hyatt centric Montevideo. We would definitely recommend it! It was a nice hotel and we liked the location as well 😊
Thank you! We weren´t there for very long, but we never felt unsafe anywhere we went, and we really enjoyed what we did see of Uruguay. Our general impression is that the people were very friendly 😊
@@kinslowrainer3982 cleanliness is not the best in Montevideo, very few areas can be considered "clean". However this is only in the capital as the rest of the country is very clean.
@@agustin1141 When you say that the rest of the country is cleaner, are you referring to Ciudad de la Costa, or do you mean the eastern litoral, the north, and the center, too?
@@kinslowrainer3982 I am referring to the rest of the country in general. The capital cities of the other departments (regional divisions of Uruguay, like states or province's) tend to be way cleaner. Obviously there may be some areas which are dirtier, like in the poorest neighbourhoods.
Hola!!!. Gracias por este video. He viajado a algunos paises pero mi Pequeño Pais no deja de sorprenderme, mas cuando veo personas como ustedes q vienen a visitarnos y muestran lugares tan lindos como los q tenemos. Muy original este video, solo q el chivito tambien lo sirven sin pan 😉😀. Espero q puedan volver y conocer otros lugares espectaculares. Gracias por sus comentarios y los esperamos cuando quieran volver. 🙋
About the vote you asked, the new government proposed a series of laws to improve many issues that were going on in the country, laws that did pass (with some changes) after being discussed by the senators and lower chamber of all parties and it was put to work for almost an Year. Until, of a sudden, the communist and the Union (who are also communist in Uruguay) realized it didn´t work in their favor and their corruption, so they started to mobilize the Pink Panthers as I jokingly call their followers (they are a joke following a cartoon), so one of their bright minds woke up one morning and decided that even though their own party voted to put the new laws in place, they were still unconstitutional, so people had to vote to derogate them... To do so, the got many people to sign, and too many of them they lied to their faces. Like one old guy, probably in his 80´s that they stopped in the street and told him, that if he didn´t sign the new low was going to take away his pension... So many old people and ignorant ones, didn´t read the laws and signed because the were coerced by them. These new laws were really solving some core issues we inherited from the Socialist/Communist/Union administration, who governed for 15 long horrible years... Some of these new laws were written to protect citizens from crime and even the police themselves, from criminals. While Frente Amplio was in government, you couldn´t use self defense if a robber or killer got armed into your home. If it happened that you killed the criminal, you would go to jail. The same if a policeman killed an armed person who attacked them. If the criminals killed you or a policemen, they would go free... or a few months to jail just to sign.. for the little mistake they made... and back to streets to keep committing crimes! Before the Frente Amplio administration, Uruguay was a very secure country. Nowadays, people have bars in all the houses because of them... On the other hand if you or a policeman would use self defense, you could rotten in jail. That ridiculous things were turning with Frente Amplio. These new laws covered many other aspects that improved people´s lives and rights. For example, when the left were in government, the Union would take over a place, public or private for as long as they pleased and they wouldn´t even let the owners (if it was a private company) to get access to their own company, let alone other employees to work, if they wanted to do so. The new laws allow the lazy bums not to work if they don´t feel like (which they never do), but they don´t have the right anymore to take over private or public property, and they can not deny access to workers who want to fulfill their job responsibilities. In other words, now everybody has the right to be respected. So, even though it looked a little confusing, all those Pink Panthers, wanted to derogate the new laws, because they wanted to prevent for example police abuse or force, or so they said, something that didn´t even happen once during that long year they laws were in place or afterwards (because the NO WON, thank God). On the contrary... one of these union bums, went to the press saying he had been abused by police force, because he carried some logos supporting the Union. What the idiot didn´t know, that with all the new technology, everything that happened when he was detained for another unrelated issue, was RECORDED. So he ended up looking for what he is, an A... H... Sorry if my English is not so clear, but being my second language I never use it, to talk about politics, so I am pretty rusty with that vocabulary!
Muchisimas gracias por su explicación de lo que pasaba ese dia y su escritura esta buenisima, muy clara que se comprende muy bien grandes saludos y de nuevo gracias!!

Beautiful Montevideo!! Good luck guys!! Thank you for sharing 🇺🇾🇺🇾❤️

There's sour cream in Uruguay. It's called Casan Crem. Tastes just like the ones used in the US for tacos, baked potatoes, etc

Going to Montevideo soon, the hotel you stayed look spacious, may I know its name. And will you recommend it?
Yeah, the hotel we stayed at was the Hyatt centric Montevideo. We would definitely recommend it! It was a nice hotel and we liked the location as well 😊
the best country , greetings
Nice!
Hi guys! Good video. Colonia del Sacramento. For Quick video I think is best option. Or Punta del Este.
Hi. Nice video!
Can I ask what you thought about Uruguay? How safe, clean, and modern was it? What were the people like?
Thanks!
Thank you!
We weren´t there for very long, but we never felt unsafe anywhere we went, and we really enjoyed what we did see of Uruguay. Our general impression is that the people were very friendly 😊

Thank you so much for enjoying our video! 😊 We had an amazing time. We definitely want to come back another time.
Uruguay 🇺🇾
This is filmed in summer?
Yes, it was. Beginning of March 😊
You folks need rollerblades or a stand up scooter. I saw one go by you in the video. Why walk 20Km?
We really enjoy walking, and the distances was a bit longer than we initially thought 😅
The people you saw gathered in the "Rambla" is because there was a plebiscite to repeal a very controversial law called "LUC". Greetings, be well!
Oh man they still bothering people with Covid test and things like that?
This happened in March. I have no idea how it is now, hopefully it’s not like this anymore 😊
@@atypicaladventure oh goodness glad to hear that i was wondering what on earth you guys were doing. it is NOT that way anymore
