WTF guys I went traveling to Uruguay and the country is just so... bland. It's like a computer simulation of a generic South American country, the food is bland, the people are bland, the landscapes are bland and so forth. The only place I've visited that was interesting was Colonia del Sacramento and I saw everything in the town in about 3-4 hours.
Did I miss anything? I swear if you ask me what's the most interesting aspect of Uruguayan culture is I'd say it's the people carrying around mate chimarrão bottles everywhere
>I visited a 3 million people """country""" without a single touristic attraction
Like, what the fuck were you expecting? It's like saying "oh man I'm traveling to Europe" and then you visit Latvia or Estonia instead of Spain or Italy
But it has three U's in its name. It sounds so dark and mysterious, how can it be boring?

>"Mme Colette started to open her eyes," wrote the anonymous eyewitness. "Her interest turned to enthusiasm when Andrade and [teammate Alfredo] Zibechi, in costumes and to the sound of drums, started demonstrating the dances… She ended the party eating asado [barbecued beef], Uruguayan-style, spearing the meat on the point of her knife." Colette's report of the party in Le Matin said: "Uruguayans are a strange combination of civilisation and barbarism. Dancing 'le tango' they are wonderful, sublime, better than the best gigolo. But they also dance African cannibal dances that make you shiver."
