Moving to Uruguay!

8 years ago
Hi all.

My family and I are hoping to move to Uruguay at the end of this year. I am a UK citizen and my wife and child are of Thai nationality. I am an English teacher in Saudi Arabia at the moment, this is so I can earn enough to get us over there and start a new life.
My wife is a chef and cook the most amazing food, from Thai to European and Fusion.
We're looking for accommodation with which to start a little restaurant, we need a 2-3bed home / town house or even a cottage style property would be great!
I've even seen a property on this page just north of Montevideo that was a good size for $600 a mth, that's a great price for me...for anyone I would think!
Anyhoo, we know all of the requirements for visas etc, but we're finding it really hard to find accommodation listings, you've been the best site so far. We are thinking about just getting there and renting somewhere for a month to give us the time to find a proper place for our business. I will try to find English teaching work, which apparently isn't difficult at all to do, once in country?! I've found a few places to contact in the meantime.

So, if anyone has any advice that we may find useful then I / we would appreciate it very much indeed.

best regards

The 'Mills' family.
