Uruguay

So I arrived 20.30 yesterday (local time), just enough to get through security, pick up my bag and get through customs... And then it got dark. According to the hostel where I was going to be living, I just had to take any bus labeled Montevideo, so of course I did. Now in Zambia the neighbourhoods weren´t this bad, in Barbados the busses were more comfortable and better lit, and in both those countries, people speak English. Here the were not even a bus plan in any language at all, so in the end I got tired of riding around the city (slightly scared), so I got out and found a taxi.

To put it mildly, my driver was astonished to find a foreigner in that part of town (worst neighbourhood in all of Uruguay), with a big backpack all by himself; but he did manage to get me to my hostel, and for that I was grateful.

The hostel though, is rather rundown, and very noisy. Now the noise I did expect, but it is very dirty, and impossible to orient yourself; so to begin with I´m just gonna look up what to do after Montevideo (I have an idea about a place called Cabo Pinono or something like that).

I guess that´s enough for right now, you will get more later.
