New in Uruguay
— where the real talk happens
I moved to rural Uruguay with my partner. I'm still figuring it out. I want to help you do the same — no guru act, just real talk from someone who's been through it.
You are welcome here
Built for people who don't fit the typical expat mold
The standard expat advice assumes a certain kind of person. You might not be it. Neither am I — that's kind of the point.
Queer & trans folks
A real acceptance that's quieter and more human than the brochures suggest.
Neurodivergent minds
Room to build life at your own pace, without the overstimulation of the default track.
Vegan & plant-based
Eating well here is cheaper than you'd think — I'll show you where and how.
Arriving without much money
Real numbers and real paths, not "just get a remote job" fantasy.
Alternative ways of living
Permaculture, slow living, off the beaten path — we're doing it for real.
Tired of standard expat advice
No guru talk. Just someone who's been through it, telling you the truth.
Wherever you are in the journey
Support at every stage

We are building a community here
Monthly gatherings, honest conversations, shared resources — a soft place to land with other folks who chose this.
Honest conversations
Monthly gatherings where we talk about the real stuff — money, fear, paperwork, and the good days.
Shared resources
Where to shop, who to ask, what to watch out for — pooled from people actually living it.
Hands-on help
Moving day, a paperwork run, a ride when you need it. Community in the practical sense.
A note from me
If any of this sounds familiar, you don't have to figure it out alone.
No pressure, no sales pitch. When you're ready, let's just talk.
Let's chat“I'm still learning this place too. But the best thing I've found here is the people — and I'd love for you to meet them.”
