Great Options

We had a great time in Chile and Argentina.  I can see visiting Peru one day.  

My Uber driver yesterday was from Uruguay.  He had lived in New York and different places - now Asheville.  He's nearing retirement, and is trying to talk his wife into moving to Buenos Aires, which is far cheaper than here, and cheaper than Uruguay.  But since it borders Uruguay, he felt it would be a great chance to live out his years closer to his extended family.  Oh, and he asked about Thailand.  He said that would be a great option, too.  He had heard that it attracted retirees.

He also said Argentinians with money buy beach condos in Uruguay, since the beaches there are considered to be more beautiful.
