The ethnic diversity of Paraguayans having seen Asian, Blonde blue eyed, and Mestiza Paraguayans is quite interesting to me. They're really friendly and down to party with rooftop bars that have panoramic views of the city. And with all due respect their women are as beautiful as Colombianas if not more so IMO. I love how they maintain their indigenous culture with the Guarani as their currency and a majority spoken language. No where else in the colonized western hemisphere do you see that. Also I noticed they say"puerta" like Paulistas from Sao, Paulo Brasil say "Porta" or when they say "lugar". So at times to my ear they had a Paulista accent where they hit the "r" hard like gringo spoken Spanish without rolling it.
The country lost 90% of its original population in the war of the triple alliance, only 200 thousand people survived and the country was repopulated with millions of European immigrants, which resulted in a "castiso" population very different from the average latin
Where I live in the Bay area, the peanut butter would have been $5, The limes would have been $4, The prepared meals would have been $7 each, 5L of water would have been $3.50, and bananas would have been hard to purchase in that bad of condition, but that many would have been about $2.50. Thank you for the video! Hope you don't get sick again.
@@IvanHernandez-ii8oq wow, awesome man! I hope you pull it off. I know this bay area is about the worst it gets with prices. Frozen meals can definitely be 20 bucks, but you, grocery outlet... Haha. Maybe not the best. Or Costco, and then take the average.
@@StevoSwiss We are on the same boath Costco is a luxury now lol , I'll keep you updated once I apply for resedency, and let you know how it whent. Best of luck to everyone
I was there over the Christmas, it's a great with place lovely people, but you need to speak Spanish, I don't and due to the good nature of the locals making a massive effort to help me I had a great time. When I go back later in the year I will need to have a lot learnt a lot more Spanish.
El super 6 es el supermercado más caro de donde comprar alimentos en Paraguay, además las frutas y verduras envasadas tienen costo extra y sumado el delivery es carisimo
No creas, que en Casa Rica ó en el supermercado del Shopping del Sol, son mucho más caros que el Super6. Pero piensa que para un paraguayo normal, si son super caros, y mejor ir al Real ó similar, pero para un norteamericano ó europeo (mi caso), esos precios son MUY baratos. Por ponerte un ejemplo, un Uber ó Bolt, de un trayecto de 30 minutos, en Europa son más de 80 euros (más de 660.000 guanaríes), pero en PY, a mi me han cobrado el equivalente a 6 euros (51.000 guanaríes), y si sucede con la compra en los supermercados, que una compra mensual no te vaya de los 700 euros, en PY no llega a los 200 euros.
Cumbia is really from Colombia. It is played in Argentina and many other countries of course but it is not from Argentina. Argentina is the land of tango, pop music, rock, country samba, milonga, and other types of songs and melodies,
The whole old town area is a must avoid whenever you’re a first time tourist or by yourself, it’s indeed a bit sketchy Are you coming back to Paraguay?
Well the food shopping is definitely not as cheap as i hoped for, it is kind of similar to prices in the Netherlands, with exception of the waterbottle
In Paraguay everything is cheap because the government is capitalist, it only charges a 10% tax to the inhabitants and the companies, that is why all the companies and brands in the world are in Paraguay and do not increase their prices too much, sometimes maintaining the price from their original country or even cheaper, they would like to come to Paraguay, the climate, the friendliness of the Paraguayans, the perfect climate, the most magical nights, the people who are the most beautiful, there are thousands of children of Europeans and the Paraguayans have an appearance similar to the Mediterranean people of southern Europe, most of the population is very young, the food is richer and has never been seen before, the places are like a paradise, the streams, lakes, and the artificial beaches of large rivers They clean every year like those in Encarnacion, Paraguay is really like a university summer vacation place 👍
So many great places to visit in Paraguay. A country of hidden gems.
Such an amazing video, beautiful city, look forward to visiting soon, thanks for sharing!

Jajaja soy de Paraguay y es cierto lo de la "R"
Lo de la "r" es algo asunceno y no toda Paraguay
Even with your delivery, all of those prices are way cheaper than mine in the U.S. The produce looks fresher too. Thanks for filming and sharing.
Interesting. Thanks for letting me know

@johng1216 Otra opción es que aprendas el idioma Guaraní , que también es oficial. Es muy fácil ( yo en muchos años no aprendí casi nada ) 🤣
Te esperamos 🇵🇾
@@dahiacosta6403 Gracias
@@AlfredoBrizuela09 El idioma guaraní es muy nasal, el español es la mejor opción por ahora, aprenderé el guaraní cuando viva allí.

Nicely done good to learn more about your life in Asuncion
The intro music is not from Paraguay, cumbia is from Colombia and Argentina, they are totally different from us

Paraguay escucha mucha kachaca
Tango is not Argentinian, Tango is from Spain as Gardel from Uruguay@@jgonz260
Argentina has cumbia villera that's a shit @@jgonz260
I hate all these kind of music and Samba is from Brazil inspired on african music @@jgonz260
comparable shopping prices in South Dakota
Surprising!
Last I checked Christi Noem has ceded South Dakota to Israel for use as a child trafficking and pedophile hub? Go Rainbow!
looks like a great city to enjoy money and live like royalty.

Are you coming back to Paraguay?
What neighborhood were you at?
I usually try to stay in the recoleta/mariscal area
What can you say about drinking the tap water in Asuncion, Paraguay?
Why not? Don't drink the first week maybe as usual when you are not in your home city, but tap water is fine here.
I'm from Paraguay/ Asuncion, and the water is ok, I lived in Colorado and there the water was worst.
Well the food shopping is definitely not as cheap as i hoped for, it is kind of similar to prices in the Netherlands, with exception of the waterbottle
she bought the most expensive things here in Paraguay, like peanut butter and apricot
Surely you found expensive supermarket, foods prices in Paraguay are more cheap
I ordered the groceries on Pedidos Ya so there was definitely a premium for that. It was ordered from the Pedido Market on the app
Are you Canadian?
Lets goo !!
Bienvenida a Paraguay❤
I couldn't watch your full video, cumbia is very annoying
Hey there! If you ever need a photographer or videographer for your properties and extra point understand English and is a local!
I love paraguay im 100% Paraguayo but im American. Im going to san Antonio which isnt far from asuncion. Rohayhu Paraguay
Music is fine, but you should be playing harp music like pajaro campana. That is more traditional Paraguayan music.
you said business partners. what business do you do ? i am interested
