A 5h30 drive from Melo, Tacuarembo is located in north-central of Uruguay. C is the home of the Gaucho and its traditions, its culture strong and pervasive throughout the country, to the rurality of Uruguay. Apart from the Gaucho Museum and the nearby village of Carlos Gardel, the city of Tacuarembo has nothing special in itself. We went for an experiment, to experience the gaucho traditions at the heart of their reality in a real estancia (a ranch is a ranch: it is the word used in Uruguay and Argentina, c is a hacienda in Chile).
The Uruguay has a hundred estancias welcoming travelers. Most of them are rather expensive tourist ranches and quite luxurious offering rural tourism activities fee. Us, we wanted to share an experience of life and the lives of gauchos: we spent 4 days special Panageas located in Estancia was 1h30 Tacuarembo direction from Juan Manuel Salto and Suzanna. The estancia Panageas Account 1000 hectares and not less than 1600 sheep, 900 cows, 88 horses, 44 pigs and chickens ... The ranch belonged to the grandfather of Juan Manuel and is located in the countryside, amid immense green areas, with small hills, water courses, granite stones. We first learned of the saddle horses and gauchos saddles are different, more comfortable, covered with a sheepskin. The jaw is also different, longer in the horse's mouth. The reins are held with one hand, another difference. Our daily routine was to ride morning and afternoon to pick up the cattle, sheep or cows, the collection, take in the corral for the immunization, treatment against parasites or select from the animals before the sale or here. Belinga and his family live and work in the ranch of Juan Manuel. With his hat, poncho and his little mustache, has everything the perfect Belinga gaucho. The wife of Juan Manuel, Suzanna is Swiss-German origin, his kindness and generosity we have many makes and keys. Their daughter Darma 11 months and already she seems to like to stand on a horse! A real small left for future! This experience will be unforgettable in the estancia, our rides to drive the cattle through the splendid green areas we have charms. The landscape is really endearing. D so far as we also met a very nice fellow travelers: Kim, Sweden; Stephanie and Luke of Australia. In Estancia Panag, no electricity generator allows fair to have light from 18h to 22h.

We left on 30 and 31 May on Montevideo 5h30 Tacuarembo bus where we found our friends Johanna and Pascal that we had meetings in India. They still have 2 ½ months of travel and they will continue in Bolivia and Peru. We again had an incredible time together and we had tons of memories and stories to share about our respective travel six months since we met in India!
