#31 | Bikepacking South America | Feeling at Home in Uruguay | Bicycle World Tour | 4K

We're in Uruguay, driving through the vast grasslands of the Pampa. Unexpectedly, we stay for a very long time in Curtina, a small town south of the city of Tacuarembo. What was intended as a short-term overnight stay turns into the beginning of a wonderful time full of warmth and hospitality. We meet Carlos, Ruben, Adolfo, Marie, and Silvina. We are treated to delicious meals. We cook together. We laugh together; we spend a wonderful time together. We are also guests on a radio show on "Radio Tacuarembo," we explore the city of Tacuarembo together, and we visit the "Patria de Gaucha" festival—which, admittedly, doesn't start for another two weeks. But we get to look around the construction site and experience the surprisingly diverse culture of the gauchos. It's extremely hard for us to say goodbye! We're sure we'll come back.
