Under the Sea
Ariel, listen to me
That world is so messed up
Life under the sea is so much better than the world up there
You think that in other places
The seaweed is greener
And you dream of going up there
What a big mistake
Don't you see that your own world
Is incomparable?
What could be out there
That causes such excitement?
Under the sea, under the sea
You live happily as a mermaid, you are happy
I know they work tirelessly
And under the sun, for a change
While we always float under the sea
The fish are very happy
Here they have freedom
The fish there are sad
Their homes are made of glass
The life of our fish
Is not usually very long
If the owner feels like it
They'll eat me
Under the sea, under the sea
Nobody fries us or cooks us in a pan
If you don't want to take a risk
Under the sea you will stay
And without problems, among bubbles you will live
(Under the sea) under the sea (under the sea)
There is always rhythm in our natural world (natural)
The manta ray will play, the sturgeon will join in
There is always rhythm, marine rhythm, under the sea
Listen to the flute, listen to the harp
And pay attention to the double bass
You will see the trumpets and the drum
Enjoy your song
Yes, With the marimba and the violin
The trout flipping, the other singing
Not forgetting the swordfish
Let the show begin!
Yes!, under the sea (under the sea) under the sea (under the sea)
There are dancers, they are the sardines, come dance (let's dance)
Why do you want to explore
If our band is going to play?
There are castanets, they are the clams, under the sea
And the slugs are so funny under the sea
The snail is a saxophonist and the bubbles fill the dance floor
So you can dance at this party under the sea

A sovereign couple expecting first baby, trying to figure out the chess move - looking at jus solis jurisdictions, dodging forced infant vaccinations, and maximising freedom all at the same time
We found a VA who accepted BTC
She has found us a midwife who will install Simplex Chat
Also an english speaking doula
We are having a homebirth in South America, and it's looking likely we will achieve this without whatsapp
Has anyone here given #childbirth in #uruguay ?
We have some questions
At one point we were considering the Falkland Islands π¬π§π¦π·. Our baby could get two citizenships at birth (Argentina + UK).
It turns out that it is not that straightforwarrd - it's possible, but you need to be an actual permanent resident to be eligible.
And the Falklands are pretty small - populations is < 5k and healthcare facilities are limited.

Review of
We contacted this firm for help with some questions around childbirth in Uruguay. We received no reply after 3 emails, so we asked a friend if they could reach out by whatsapp. We got a quick response, and booked a 1 hr consultation for 250 USD, which we were able to pay in Bitcoin.
They offered a consultation on Zoom, which we really weren't comfortable with, but they refused to use our preferred (open source) video conference solution.
They were 10 minutes late joining the call, and we quickly learned that the specialist did not speak English (only Russian). However there was a translator.
We had some back and forth with various questions, and we were advised that having an un-stabbed baby was really not an option. She did say that the vaccines were manufactured in Uruguay, and were "very good vaccines".
Changing topic, we asked some residence / tax related questions (apparently uruguay is not a territorial tax jurisdiction), but the advisor was not a tax expert and could not help further.
Our translator was smoking a cigarette during the call. We were then told that due to "zoom rules" we needed to break the call for 10 minutes so they could start the call again.
We politely declined and thanked them for their time.

Move to Uruguay: Assistance with Permanent Residency and Relocation
Move to Uruguay with expert support. We assist with documents, residency, housing, and more to ensure a smooth and efficient relocation process.
ππΆπ Weβre a couple from the EUSSR who recently discovered that weβre contributing a +1 to the world, sometime next year π
It turns out that this is not such an easy thing to plan or prepare for.
We are currently trying to optimise for the following variables:
πͺͺ Multiple passports at birth (or shortly thereafter)
π«π Zero vaccinations
π₯ Good healthcare
We've already done plenty of research, and had calls with various "specialists". In future posts we'd like to share what we have found, and hopefully learn from the experience of those in the community who have been there / done that.
In the EU it's completely acceptable to say "no thanks" to vaccinations, but in South America (where all the decent Jus Solis jurisdictions exist), it's basically mandatory to have your baby stabbed at birth!
