Student Housing

A bright artsy house right on Candombe drum Hill .THE ROOM I USE IN THE SUMMER IS NOT WARM ENOUGH IN WINTER, SO I PUT DORM BEDS INDOORS, ACCORDING TO WHICH ROOMS ARE ALREADY RENTED , so you might be sharing the room with 2 other beds, or you might have the living room all to yourself, in front of the wood stove . ( see other listing if you require a private room ) 2 blocks from river, 8 blocks from town ( buses from the beaches stop 2 blocks away ) . Vegetarian kitchen. dogs, cat on site. You have complete access to the all of the spaces except the other bedrooms . ( front patio, back yard, living room, kitchen ) The house has one shared bathroom. I love the city of Minas and can give you lots of great recommendations, including local townspeople to meet! This town dates all the way back to the late 1700s. so is a historical pleasure to wander around. Borrow one of Martita's colourful bicycles! Minas is located 2 hours by bus from Montevideo. The bus ride is comfortable, has wifi, bathroom, beautiful scenery and only costs 218 pesos. The beaches of Punta del Este are 45 minutes from Minas. The river Santa Lucia, and its lovely beaches, is 12 km away. this is a quiet little town, but i love it here. a nice mix of all kinds of folks. i dont speak spanish, so that impacts the way i live here. It isnt necessary, as long as you are willing to write out in Spanish, draw or pantomime what you want, as very few people in this part of the country speak English. - the people are very helpful, if they understand what you need, they will bend over backwards to try to get it for you. This area has many great places to hike, and this small town has 4 museums. Nearby are waterfalls, lakes, and other natural places to visit. I am a pretty good tourguide, if you need ideas of things to do here. Mostly, you ll get to see what the countryside of uruguay, the non city, non beaches , is like. And it is BEAUTIFUL.
