Our experience: the move, the house, school, healthcare — a knowledge library.
Moving to Uruguay
The move ~$28k, papers, our pug, why Uruguay (not Paraguay, Argentina, Brazil, Serbia). Personal case.
Open Building in PiriápolisHouse and land
Plot, power, water, intendencia, BPS — our path to building in Piriápolis. The house (locals call it the “bunker”) and the numbers.
Open Kindergarten · school · universityEducation
School in Uruguay through 11th grade: language and friends. Kindergarten and university later, when we have our own story.
Open Daily life · prices · PiriápolisLife in Uruguay
How we live in Piriápolis: food, prices, daily life. Everything that isn’t the move, the house, or school.
Open Health · UruguayHealthcare
ASSE is free, with queues; paid Asistencial Médico, FONASA ≈ $200 for four. Our case, Piriápolis.
Open The chapter before UruguaySwitzerland
We were there: temporary protection, and why we left for Uruguay. Its own shelf — not mixed with life in Piriápolis.
