Punta del Diablo!! Amazing place, this is it... we're staying right here until further notice. Won't move an inch. We left from La Barra y'day and arrived last night. La Barra was ok, club scene is wild and Punta del Este is were rich people goes to show off. But it was way to expensive to stay there for a longer period of time. And they have rat eating dogs. Nice little doggy came along while we were chillin at the pool. With a rat... And... ye... started eating the thing. And it was HUGE, it ate the lot of it, everything, we could hear the bones chrushing... Smooth!
Well back to Punta del Diablo, fantastic surf/beach town situated not to far from the Brazilian border. Very wild and small place, but superb location and tons of locals. Also attracts tons of travelers. We're staying in a cool hostel right on the beach called El Diablo Tranquilo, it's a 10 man mixed dorm, and right now it's 8 girls and us ;o). It is a bit too expensive here as well tho, so we're gonna check out some cheaper options today. It's possible to rent small houses or cabanas if u want too, but we prefer staying at hostels. Ten people in a room the size of a closet gets a bit cramped tho. We've met some cool peeps and there's tons of backpackers to hang out with.
Uruguay is def an underestimated destination. Uruguay has actually so far proved to be quite outstanding! So anyone off to South-Am should make Uruguay a part of that trip. Overall more expensive compared to Argentina and Brasil, but it has some truly amazing places to visit. Colonia, Punta del Este, La Paloma, La Pedrera, Punta del Diablo... Google it and be inspired! Not far from here is a place u can volunteer and work with sea turtles, awesome! Gotta check that out.
Unfortunately no pictures to be uploaded yet, coz it's such a f***ing hassle to upload on these not-so-good connections. Well, that ought to be it for now, looking out of the window from the hostel I can see the beach, blue sky, sun, and surf's up. As I already wrote, staying at Punta del Diablo until further notice... Enjoy the freezing at home!
