    Auston, the ocean is not dirty ... the thing is that this bay is really wide, almost 80 km from Montevideo to Punta Pidras in Argentina. This produce a movement of water that sometimes wins the river (the water is brown) and sometimes win the ocean (the water is blue). Have a nice trip !

    Hi Austin... Welcome to Uruguay. First of all, congratulations on your channel. I've been following you during your visit to Buenos Aires, and now you've come to my country. I lived in Buenos Aires for 12 years. In our country, we have three major cultural influences: murga, candombe, and tango. Candombe comes from the Afro culture of our country, and usually on weekends in Montevideo, people gather in neighborhoods like Ciudad Vieja, Palermo, and others to play candombe. In February, there's an event called "Las llamadas," where hundreds of people with their groups play the drum. I recommend visiting the neighborhoods of Pocitos and Carrasco-they are very beautiful. The beaches are clearer towards the east, although it's nothing like the Caribbean. If you have time, I also recommend Punta del Este, the exclusive resort of Uruguay, where tourists from all over the world come. I live there. You're welcome, and if you need anything....Don't hesitate to get in touch with me. Good luck! And it doesn't just seem like Dr. Dre; it is Dr. Dre

Both Uruguay and Argentina have sandy coasts and sand is brought by the Uruguay river stream. In colonial times the Río de la Plata was a way into the heart of south america, and Montevideo was the only place suitable to have a dock for big ships. I hope you are enjoying your stay!

    Welcome to Uruguay. I want to make some comments to clarify some of your concepts. Rio de la Plata IS NOT an ocean, it is an ESTUARY. The brown water is not because it s "dirty" but because two rivers flow into it, Rio Paraná from Argentina, and Rio Uruguay between both countries, Argentina and Uruguay. A few miles east, the Estuary itself will flow into the Atlantic Ocean. In there the water is blue (In Punta del Este area) The shower you have on your roof it is probably for very hot days after grilling, I am sure you´ll be hot enough to use it. You are in a neighbourhood, La Aduana, where most of black Uruguayan from Mdeo, live. Right now, there are many more because we also have lots of Cubans, Dominicans, and blacks from some other places, even some from African countries. Black population in Uruguay used to be around 4%. We had some famous soccer players through history which were black. We probably have some in the National Team, right now. I don't know, because most of them are new young kids. The first famous black Uruguayan, was part of the team that won the soccer Olympics in 1924 and 1928, nowadays considered World Championship and also in 1930 he won the First World Cup. His name was José Leandro Andrade, he was from my town, Salto. French named him "la merveille noire." His nephew won the 1950 World Cup. You should also ask about Candombe, which is the most important music from Black Uruguayan. About the mate you bought, if it is the classical mate (made of a gourd) it needs to be "cured" before first use. I wish you could find an Uruguayan who can explain you how. If it is made of any other material... you just need a "bombilla" the straw, and the yerba mate. But even to start mate, it would be nice if you talk to someone because there is a whole traditional form to do it then it lasts longer.

    Genéticamente en resumen si mezclás un español con un italiano te da un uruguayo 😁. En Uruguay el 90% de la población es descendiente de inmigrantes europeos (el porcentaje más alto de América, le sigue Canadá con 73%, Argentina 67% y EEUU 66%). Uruguay en el total país tiene entorno de 90% de descendientes de europeos (entre 88 y 92% según que estudio se tome como base) y es el mayor porcentaje por lejos de Latinoamérica. En el caso de los uruguayos con mayoría de ascendientes españoles el porcentaje en el total país es de 40 y algo por ciento (algunos datos hablan del 51%), las regiones que más aportaron fueron las Islas Canarias, Galicia, País Vasco y Catalunia en ese orden. Además Uruguay en el total país después de Italia tiene el mayor porcentaje de descendientes de italianos en el mundo 40%. Siempre mirando datos del total del país. (Googlear inmigración italiana en el Uruguay). La mayoría de los descendientes de italianos en Uruguay son de las regiones de Campania, Lombardía, Liguria y Basilicata en ese orden. Pero a modo de resumen casi todos los uruguayos (un 90%) somos la mezcla de españoles con italianos (aunque también hay un porcentaje no menor, en un segundo escalón, de franceses y alemanes, también, en un tercer escalón de importancia portugueses, britanicos (ingleses y escoceses), irlandeses, suizos, etc, en el 8 o 10% restante hay mitad mulatos (mezcla de blanco con negro) y mitad mestizos (mezcla de blanco con indígena)

    Hello Auston, I just discovered your channel today, and I really like the vibe of your videos. As others have mentioned in the comments, candombe is a very important part of Uruguayan culture, especially in Montevideo. Although the Afro-descendant population in Uruguay is just above 10%, their cultural impact is significant. I recommend exploring Barrio Sur and Palermo, where the Afro-Uruguayan presence is more prominent. Greetings!

Spanish speaker knows that portuguese speaker can understand them pretty well. In fact they will struggle to understand portuguese because it is faster and more compressed language compared to spanish slower and clearer. The point is: it is easier for us portuguese to speak spanish than spanish speak portuguese. when you ask them if they speak portuguese, they will be left wonder if it isn't easier for you to speak spanish, and judge you as less cleaver person.

That apartment looks GREAT! It has an amazing roof top and you can also BBQ! Yes, Montevideo is where the black population is mostly, and yes, it is around 10% and they are mostly (if I'm not mistaken) in the neighborhoods named BARRIO SUR and PALERMO. As someone said in another comment, you should have the experience of listening to the sound of candombe. IT IS AMAZING. The Montevideo promenade is also an EXCELLENT walk that everyone enjoys. Especially the Pocitos promenade. The quarries of Parque Rodo. Pocitos (the neighborhood), as well as Buceo, Punta Gorda, Carrasco. You have to try our meat and achuras at El Mercado del Puerto (Ciudad Vieja). The famous Chivito. Maybe a good option for this is La Pasiva or El Chivito de Oro. Well...I could go on and on. I'm here if you want to ask me anything. Hug brother and ENJOY URUGUAY!!! Oh! And Marijuana is legal but is sold in SOME farmacies but you have to be a resident and be registered.

    The ocean is not dirty. The Río de la Plata is an estuary, where the Uruguay and Paraná rivers flow into the sea so what you see is brackish muddy river water but it is not polluted and is generally safe for bathing.

    Hi my friend the water in the coast of Montevido is not ocean water it is a river called Rio de la Plata that's why it looks brown. That rivers divides Montevido from Buenos Aires. Another think in Uruguay whites aannd blacks are not separate like in US or UK in Uruguay we are all Uruguayans and when you ask for skin color the people will look at you kinda confused because we don't do that separation in here we are all the same.
