"Expats in Minas often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture, as Spanish is the official language and not everyone speaks English. They may also struggle with the slower pace of life, which is common in many South American countries but can be frustrating for those used to a faster, more efficient pace. The local cuisine, which is heavily meat-based, can be a challenge for vegetarians or those with dietary restrictions. Additionally, expats may find it difficult to navigate the local bureaucracy, which can be complex and time-consuming. Lastly, while Uruguayans are generally friendly and welcoming, it can take time to build deep, meaningful relationships, which can lead to feelings of isolation or loneliness for some expats," said another expat in Minas, Uruguay.
