This country, with a little more than half a million people, is somewhat of an island on the continent – the people are all descendants of the cane cutters who came from Africa and India, and as this used to be a Dutch colony, they all speak Dutch. This is fascinating for the Afrikaans-speaking Voetspore crew.

Read MoreUruguay
After more than 45,000 km during three expeditions of three months each over the past three years, the team arrives at La Chacra Holandesa of Jan and Marieke Kuper in Uruguay. This is where the journey started three years ago. It is only fitting that it ends here as well.
