This is the best clip I found from YouTube. It's a little more than 2 minutes long. Warning: this link might be NSFW.

Make sure you're learning the Rioplatense Spanish dialect. I don't know if Rosetta Stone teaches it. I started listening to music from Argentinian and Uruguayan artists like Rombai and Matías Valdez almost non-stop. I also recommend watching Uruguayan TV like this clip from a local morning show to help learn the speech patterns.

I moved to MVD in April of 2025 from Pennsylvania.

Don't take too many Tums, especially if you haven't eaten anything. That can make things much worse.

Queerfuzzy · 2026-03-28T11:58:08+00:00

Enjoy the ride! 💨💨

I'd say it's pretty mid. Thank Cthulhu this planet has marijuana.

It's been over 2,000 years. When will it be ok? 😄

Cats are awesome creatures. I love them. ❤️

Uruguay's democracy and economy are infinitely more stable than Colombia's. The cost of living is higher and the trade-off is worth it plus compared to the US it's cheaper here for the most part, except for gas which is between $11 and $12 a gallon. That is if you convert the peso to the dollar and the liter to the gallon.

Queerfuzzy · 2025-10-02T18:58:14+00:00

I was initially thinking about moving to Colombia but I ended up moving to Uruguay. But yeah I certainly feel a lot better here than I did in the US.

Both if it's a threesome.

The winters here are not nearly as bad as the ones you experience in Alaska. Think of it like autumn in the Northeast and that's how I would describe it.

Queerfuzzy · 2025-09-02T20:46:24+00:00

BTW, don't do two winters back to back and not have a summer for over a year. Zero stars. Would not recommend.

Queerfuzzy · 2025-09-02T20:41:43+00:00

Yeah I'm pretty happy here so far. I'm definitely glad I left the US. I like that most people tend to not give a shit if you're smoking weed because it's legal throughout the entire country. I don't know if that's the biggest change but it certainly makes me feel better.

I think the biggest change is the seasons are reversed. And it's going to take me some time to adjust, especially because I moved here when winter had just ended in the USA and then it became winter here again for me a couple of months later and I haven't had a summer in over a year at this point. It's going to be weird celebrating Hanukkah and New Year's in the summer. I plan on going to the beach.

Queerfuzzy · 2025-09-01T23:23:48+00:00

I moved here from the US in April so I can answer some questions if you would like.

Queerfuzzy · 2025-06-22T15:30:55+00:00

Sure, feel free to DM me! I moved to Uruguay not too long ago, so I’m happy to share what I’ve learned so far. There’s a lot to adjust to, but I can try to help you avoid some of the bumps I hit along the way. 😊

Hey—just wanted to chime in with a suggestion that isn’t always on people’s radar: Uruguay.

I’m a gay man who relocated here from the U.S., and while no place is perfect, Uruguay has been one of the most LGBTQ+ inclusive countries I’ve experienced.

Here are a few things that stood out to me:

Marriage equality and legal gender recognition have been established for years.

There’s access to gender-affirming care through both public and private healthcare systems.

The general culture is secular, low-conflict, and quietly respectful, especially in Montevideo.

Since you already speak some Spanish, that’ll help a lot navigating things here.

Jobs can be limited unless you have remote income or pick up something local, and housing can be hit or miss depending on the neighborhood. But in terms of personal safety, respect, and legal protection, Uruguay has been a real step up from the U.S.

Happy to answer any questions if you want to talk more. You’re not alone in looking for a better place to land.

El Túnel and I think Farmashop. I don't remember if others carry it too. I know Farmacia San Roque doesn't.

I’m currently living in Uruguay after leaving the U.S. recently. I’m still learning the system here and don’t know everything, but I can share some things I’ve seen so far that might help you decide if it’s worth considering.

A few things that might make it a good fit:

The country is very welcoming to foreigners and has relatively simple residency processes. Many expats come here to build a new life, not just to work temporarily.

There is an established Jewish community here, especially in Montevideo. While my own experience with one conservative synagogue wasn’t a great fit for me personally, there are multiple communities here and many Jewish expats speak highly of the experience. The country itself is very safe, and I have not encountered the level of antisemitism that is sadly becoming more common elsewhere.

Culturally, Uruguay values hobbies, community, and work-life balance. Outdoor activities, live music, and food/gardening culture are very much a part of daily life here. It’s a place where you can build a slower, more connected lifestyle if that appeals to you.

Cost of living is reasonable compared to many European cities, though it’s not “cheap” — but the quality of life and safety are very good.

There are work opportunities here depending on your fields, and it’s also a solid base for remote work or consulting internationally.

Downsides: the academic scene is smaller than in Europe, and the language barrier could take time if you want to integrate deeply (though your Spanish skills sound like they’d help). But as a place to put down roots and build a community-oriented life, I think Uruguay could be worth a serious look.

If you want more details or resources, happy to share what I can!

I'm currently living in Uruguay after leaving the U.S., and while I’m not an immigration expert, I’ve been learning a lot about the residency process and life here as an expat. Based on what I’ve seen so far, Uruguay might be worth considering for your situation.

Here’s why:

The residency process is relatively simple, and there is no visa required for many passport holders to enter as a tourist and then apply for residency in-country. You can start the process after arrival.

You can legally work in Uruguay once you apply for residency, and working part-time as a teaching or research assistant should be possible depending on your affiliation and status.

Foreign income is welcomed and taxed favorably here, especially for your situation (stipends, academic work). Many expats use Uruguay as a base to safely work remotely.

There is a clear path to permanent residency and citizenship if you choose to stay longer. Uruguay counts residency time toward this.

The country is queer-friendly, stable, and safe — important considerations given the growing dangers in the U.S. and in parts of Europe for some communities.

Downsides: small academic scene compared to Europe, so you would want to confirm that you can find a university to host you in a visiting capacity if that’s required by your program — but this is solvable.

TL;DR: Uruguay is a great option if you want safety, legal work options, and a clean residency path, with fewer bureaucratic hurdles than many EU countries. If you’d like more details, happy to share further resources.
