Today we explored Parque Rodó, both the namesake park, and the barrio (neighborhood). We also scoped out the beach where we plan to return tomorrow. It’s now been one week since we arrived...
We are Tony and Teresa Cervo, and Cervo Wanderlust is our place for saving and sharing our travels.
In 2024, we started pulling back from social media. What we didn't anticipate was the flood of friends and family telling us how much they would miss our adventures. While traveling, we would do photo dumps at the end of each day, with a write-up of what we did that day. It was primarily a way for us to journal our trip and have a place to refer back to when we wanted to remember the name of a restaurant/bar/building, or find a particular photo. Turns out many of our friends and family members were following along with our journeys.
Like we did on social media, this site will be a place for us to save our photos and travel stories. We'll also include the occasional article with tips and/or lessons learned, and maybe even some travel related product reviews (we don't currently have *any* sponsorships or affiliate programs, but if that ever changes, it will be made very clear at the top of each review).
Use the Trips dropdown in the menu to see posts from individual trips, or the Destinations dropdown in the menu to see posts for that destination (which may contain multiple trips).

We began the day by picking up some delicious pastries at La Coruñesa Confiteria, then ate them with some espresso drinks at The Lab Coffee Roasters. Our hotel buffet has brewed coffee, but I need my...
