We have spent a whole day in Uruguay, popping across on the ferry from Buenos Aires, but if you want to stay for a bit longer then volunteer work is a good way to do so.
Grassroots Volunteering in Uruguay
The organisations listed below have either got in touch with us to add their details to this or another of our websites, or we otherwise have reason to believe they are actively looking for international volunteers and charge reasonable or no fees to join in, live and work with them:
