The Capital

... to them we found they had been travelling since 2003 and had been in South America for 2 1/2 years.5th - A nice lazy day today, we caught up on some odd chores, chatted to the neighbours and otherwise took it easy. Part of the reason for this is that all of the places in town are closed on a Sunday and so it is not worth going in.6th - Into the town centre this morning on the moped, it is about 6 kms, a nice easy run. On arrival at the main ...

arriving Asuncion

... you can go to the center, I am used to take busess and try to find where to get off by seeing through the window and asking the locals, I easily found my Hotel. Next time, I will go straigh to the bus terminal, near that area i found later some hotels by US$7 a night. The first night i went out finding food and i realized I was in Paraguay, everybody speaks with an ugly accent and the city is a mess, i think, and little dirty ...

Luxe / Luxury

... more days to chill out in Asunción. Actually there aren't that many things to do in town, except getting lost because we don't understand anything to the omnipresent chaos of the city. :) We went around the monuments once more, and had a look at the zoological garden (which I found uninteresting). We wanted to take a ride on an old steam train puffing around for a couple of hours once a week, trusting the departure time given in my guide. At the reception the guy tells us that the ...

L'aventure / Adventure

<br>L'aventure: là où il n'y a pas de touristes<br>Adventure: where there are no tourists<br><br>----------<br><br>En quittant Puerto Iguazu, deux passages de frontières plus tard et j'étais au Paraguay. Les bus n'attendant pas les passagers aux frontières (à nous de prendre le bus suivant), je me suis retrouvé à attendre tranquillement au soleil sur mon sac d'un côté, et dans le bordel de Ciudad del Este de l'autre, à me battre contre les chauffeurs de taxi qui voulaient que je ...

who whants to be a millionaire live in paraguary

... 4, in Paraguay in 1 to 50000. We are living like millionaires. After a 6 hour truck ride we have pulled in to the capital of Paragay for 2 days. The difference from the countrie we have been to is mind blowing the standard of living is much cheaper in Paraguay and ther is a lot more povety. The temp is also rising its around 39 degrees. Nice hotel with AC that works.

Mba'éichapa

... area about 5km from Guarambare. My house is actually fairly comfortable, simple but comfortable. We have running water, plumbing, and electricity, and I have my own room with a bed and dresser and that´s about it. We do have a TV, too, so its not too rough. I should try to enjoy it because my post where I am assigned will likely be much less comfortable. My host "parents" are a middle aged couple with three kids in their 20s. The daughter lives with us with ...

BACK HOME IN THE LAND OF GOOD AIR

... of this continent's poorest countries. The irony of course is that there are few or no South American tourists there, nor vice versa any Thais here. Thais love to travel, and visas are a hassle, but still South America is hardly at the top of their list, not pretentious enough. In the case of Paraguay though, US citizens are almost alone in the visa requirement, but if I want to visit every country in the world, then that's the deal. If it's getting ...

Churches and Waterfalls

Arrrgh, firefox shut down in the middle of my post, and I'm way too tired to type it up again, so quick recap... we (Joaquim and Sandra, Igel and Paola and their dog Rambo, Adri, and I) headed out on the 4x4 through some small towns to a beautiful waterfall where I swam and hung out under the water. Before arriving there, we stopped ...

On the home stretch

... finally 3 days ago the government finally gave in and decided to buy back the titles to the hospital. That's one win for the little guy. I think the puts the tally at, oh say, a million government to 3 people. Now there is some celebrating going on, but as I've learned in Paraguay they better not celebrate too much until the first doctor starts seeing appointments. The radio program for NPR, that we helped with ...

Asuncion

... my hits to the group of Paraguayans that I befriended on the bus. Yet, after a half hour past the border, our bus broke down! Fortunately it was only an hour wait, which seems to be nothing for me these days. Funny thing, we were only about half a mile from the terminal. Asuncion I met up with some Couch Surfers, Miguel and Adri. Miguel showed me around ...
