URUGUAY

One of South America’s most overlooked destinations Uruguay is a great off the grid travel destination. It is home to one of the world’s most laid back capitals, river-front Montevideo, home to art deco buildings, colonial homes and an old port market. The beach-lined coast is a must-do in summer, when places like the Punta del Este peninsula become a Miami style glitzy party scene. The country also boasts four key wine regions and a Carnival celebration that runs for two months straight.
