\nIt’s time for this week’s So Your Character is … Post! This is a weekly segment where I interview lovely volunteers from around the world to give you a firsthand account of being a citizen of their respective country or having a disability. I’m hoping to encourage international diversity, break stereotypes, and give writers a crash course on how to write a character from these different places on our planet. If you haven’t checked out last week’s  So Your Character is from Portugal … be sure to hop on over there and give it a read!<\/span>
\n
<\/span>I honestly didn’t know much about Uruguay before this post either. I could find it on a map … and that’s just about it. XD I’m so glad to have Ruty on the blog!<\/span>
\n
<\/span>Disclaimer: The content below may be culturally shocking to some. Each of these posts are as uncensored as possible to preserve the authenticity of the cultures of each of the interviewees.<\/span>

Hi! Thanks for this opportunity! I\u2019m Ruth and I live in this little country in South America called Uruguay. I’m a primary school teacher but right now I work as an interpreter for the National Army.  I live only two blocks away from the beach and I love it! It’s a place called \u201cLas Toscas\u201d, is not too big and many people only come here in summer. You have to know that I\u2019m a dog lover, I have a baby \u201cLilo\u201d who is the most adorable ball of fur.<\/span>

<\/span>
\nWhat do you feel is unique to your country? Landmarks? Celebrations?<\/b><\/span>
\nSomething unique we have is one of my favorite popular celebrations: “Carnaval”, around the end of January we have a parade in the main avenue of the capital city and then we have a popular party that last at least 40 days. We have scenarios in different parts of the city (called “tablados”) where the different groups perform and entertain the audience. Then there is an official competition with different categories (my favorite is called MURGA, is a group of 17 people that sing for 45 minutes some parts of the show will definitely make you laugh).<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n


<\/span>
\nTell me about your country’s environment. What are some of your favorite places?<\/b><\/span><\/span>
\nMy country has a nice environment, if we talk about the weather is not too cold or too hot, of course people will complain either way!  <\/span>There\u2019s a lot of green if you travel just a few kilometers away from the city and we have some lovely beaches.  <\/span>My favorite place by far is the beach \ud83d\ude42  <\/span>One of the advantages of the place I live is that I only have to walk a few steps and I have water surrounding me.<\/span>

Tell me about your country’s food. What are some of your favorite dishes?<\/span><\/b><\/span>
\nPeople in Uruguay eats a lot of red meat, we have a really big livestock industry and the majority of the population likes to eat meat (I\u2019m one of the minority). We have a typical food called \u201cASADO\u201d, we put a barbeque where we cook all kinds of meat and sometimes other things with coal. There is a special meat cut called Asado that people love to eat. <\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\nAnother typical food is “torta frita” is like a big cookie-tortilla made with flower and fried in cow ghee. I love it! I like to eat it with sugar on top and sometimes \u201cdulce de leche\u201d. If you don\u2019t know what dulce de leche you should search and find the amazing power of it hahahahah! <\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\nTell me about any different speech patterns in your country. Slang? Idioms? Words for things such as \u201cbiscuits\u201d instead of \u201ccookies\u201d?<\/b><\/span>
\nOk, this one is quite funny because in Uruguay we speak SPANISH so every word is different \ud83d\ude42 Of course we have a different word from everything if you think in differences with the English languages.<\/span>
\nIf you don’t speak Spanish here are some basic words-expressions.<\/span>
\nHello = Hola<\/span>
\nThank you = Gracias<\/span>
\nGoodbye = Chau<\/span>
\nCookies = Galletas (you need to know how to ask for cookies)<\/span>

Describe briefly a regular day in your country.<\/span><\/b><\/span>
\nWell, it depends if you live in the city or the country, or like me 50km away from the city. Also each person has different activities. But for me is a bit like this: I have to get up really early and go for a run at the beach (that\u2019s just me because I like to run in the mornings). Then I have a simple breakfast and then I have to take a bus. I go to work, then to college and late at night I came back home. That\u2019s why I love weekends, especially because in my country Sunday is the day when family gathers and have a big lunch together.<\/span>
\n

How does your country compare to others, especially the States since my audience is primarily American? Environmentally? Politically? Culturally?<\/b><\/span><\/span>
\nCompared to the states we are so much smaller and be don\u2019t have the influence other countries have so our problems don\u2019t include wars or nuclear threats. We have a political system similar to the ones in the states because one ex-president copy the system and changed the constitution. I would like to say that our speech of being open-minded and accepting diversity is always true but unfortunately there are still things that need to change. Nevertheless, despite being a small country we have very progresist laws, if you search online you will find things like: we legalize marijuana, we can marry people from the same sex, and abortion is now legal (here it depends on your views whether you think all these laws are okay or not). <\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nWe were a colony before being a free country this is why we are a mix of cultures. For example me: my great grandparents were from Spain, France, Italy, Africa and one of my grandmas was a native. So you can imagine the diversity we share.<\/span>

Briefly describe three of your country\u2019s historical events that you feel are important.<\/span><\/b><\/span>
\nMy country had a long period of battles to gain its independence it began in 1811 and ended in 1825, so one would be August 25th, 1825 our Independence Day. <\/span>Then we had a really dark period of dictatorial government so the other two would be the beginning and the end of a period that was difficult to most countries in South America and leaved many scars in the people. The dates would be June 27th, 1973 \u2013 February 28th, 1985.<\/span>

<\/span>
\nWhat are some stereotypes about your country that irk you? What media portrays your country badly be it a movie, a book, or a TV show?<\/span><\/b><\/span>
\nI don\u2019t think there are many stereotypes about Uruguayans, most of them are known for being always late (another point where I think I\u2019m the minority). Another thing, and this one is true, is that we always leave things for last, we don\u2019t do what we have to until we reach the deadline :). We also are known for being quite friendly and we are tolerant with people from all over the world. <\/span>I cannot think of any movie or tv show that talks badly about us because mainly nobody talks about us \ud83d\ude41<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n


<\/span>
\nWhat media portrays your country well be it a movie, a book, or a TV show?<\/span><\/b><\/span>
\nLike I said, we don\u2019t appear much on TV or movies. There was once a movie with Steven Seagal that was set, or part of it was, in Uruguay but it was all wrong because it talked about the Uruguayan jungle which we don\u2019t have x) I think they wanted to talk about drug cartels but those are more up North. Ahhhh, there is a movie with Lucas Gabriel (who I adore) that presented a Uruguayan character, and I remember I got really mad because:<\/span>
\n1. <\/span>Not all people from South America looks like Mexicans or speak like them.<\/span>
\n2. <\/span>Our food is not spicy at all (again not all South Americans are similar to Mexicans)<\/span>
\nBTW, I don\u2019t have nothing against Mexican people \ud83d\ude42<\/span>
