March Travel Madness! Montevideo, Uruguay

So March began on such a wonderful note with a long awaited visit to Montevideo, Uruguay to visit my great friend Pati and revisit the food, the wine, the beach, and the beautiful Spanish/Italian vibe that is Montevideo.

I dig this city, even though it was cloudy and chilly most of the time, I couldn't ask for more sitting on the rooftop terrace sippin' mate with Pati or cutting grapes in the arbor or walking along the beach as it begins to rain, feeling the cool smooth sand beneath my feet. After a few months in Asuncion, I needed to feel that sand again! I had a great time Pati, and your family is so welcoming, I've never eaten so many grapes and cheesy bread in one week before.....so gooooood vos!

The flight was only 2 hours but Alas Uruguay has a great snack! The Cakes was a brownie with dulce de leite....OMG


Vanuatu in the Uruguayan paper! #Laefikamfullcircle

Subway's epic fail at a 'burrito'.....eeeeeenserio?!

Grapes! Used to make Rose wine (not my fav) but the grapes were DELICIOUS!

couldn't cut enough!
