Hi I am Jorge! I am a journalist with 20 years of experience in radio and television, curious and attentive to the symbols of a key place from a geopolitical point of view from its foundation to this day. I love my city and I love to share what I know about it with each new visitor. Some song will accompany our tour and also information about Montevidean mysteries.

At the door of the Solís Theater and I'll be wearing a red hat.

Description

Montevideo and Buenos Aires: sisters and rivals. The history of the two capital cities of the Rio de la Plata, the scene of geopolitical disputes between Spain, Portugal, England, and France. European maritime powers and their interests in the ports on the world's widest estuary, which provides access to the continent through its rivers. Wars, invasions, conflicts, and cultural, political, and economic influence. In Montevideo's old city and its promenade, the wounds and scars of more than 300 years of existence in the far south of the world remain. Montevideo is the third southernmost capital city on the planet.
