Hi Celeb thank you I hope this video help you guys 👋👋
Your Charisma is awesome, please continue doing videos, I follow other expats in Paraguay, very stiff people always trying to sell you something but with you is like listening to my good old friends in MIA, blessings to your family. Planning to get to Paraguay mid July, initially to Asuncion, but it seems like a great place where your at, For 660 i can only get a 1BR small apartment in asuncion, so ill check this town Hohenhau to see hows the vibe. Is this town only suitable for very religious people? cheers, and see if you can bring your Hubby on your next video to give a Guys-view on your new life in Py.
Good morning ☀️ Mac I really appreciate it and thank you for talking time to see our video. Hohenau is for any one is really small city if’s you like small town vibes, relax,lifestyle away from the city life Hohenau definitely you will love it here. The only problem here is that we are 6 HR away from the international Airport. And I will bring my husband to the next video. Have great day
Hohenau is quite expensive. Too many expats. Lots of Russians and Germans. I recommend cheaper and more livable places. Better to go directly to Encarnación. Or to the surrounding areas. For example, San Juan del Paraná. Or in the area around Asunción. For example, Altos. I myself live in Villarrica. Think about hospitals nearby. You should also look at Caaguazú. Or Piribebuy. But further away from good infrastructure. I live in Villarrica and pay $270 for a 160 m2 house with a garden. Centrally located in the city.
@@Colette_45hello yes Hohenau is pretty expensive but we really like here we have the colegio Adventista, the hospital 🏥 and the church ⛪️ in walking distance. Hohenau have have everything that we need at the moment definitely I will check out the places that you mentioned who knows we may be neighbors in the future Thank you for reaching out..
Thank you for sharing your perspective on the cost of living! 😊 I'm so excited to start this new chapter of my life. ❤🇵🇾
I'm learning the language and diving into the history of my new home, which is giving me butterflies in my stomach. The support we've received is truly incredible.
Hello K3 definitely you will love ❤️ paraguay 🇵🇾 is really nice and
affordable locals are welcoming and chipas are really good I’m excited for you guys good luck 👍🏿 with everything and thank you for reaching out.
Over $900 for groceries?? That seems very high! I haven't lived in Paraguay in many years, but visited recently, and I'm absolutely amazed your monthly grocery bill would be so high.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
das ist nicht zu hoch gerechnet. wir brauchen im monat auch etwa 500 dollar und sind aber nur zwei personen inkl. hund und katzen
@@robertstaub9999 Interesant ist es mir doch dass es so teuer sein wuerde. Wenn man fragen darf, kauft ihr ein wo die hiesische Bevoelkerung einkauft, oder sind dieses die Produkte die man in den neuen Einkaufszentren in Asuncion findet?
900 for food is low for a family of 5.
3 growing boys.
10 dollar im tag ist weit unter dem mindestlohn und grenzt an ausbeutung der arbeitskraft. der mindestlohn liegt bei etwa 15 dollar p/tag. man sollte keine werbung machen für solche aussagen welche nicht den tatsachen entsprechen und in wirklichkeit illegal sind
Thank You ❤ could you make more specific video about prices of fruits, veggies, various meat, cars, home appliances & home equipment (plates etc) just things needed to furnish home. You can do also comparison to f.e. Bolivia, Peru, Argentina etc
Hello mamabubu thank you for the suggestion definitely I will be working on it. Thank you for reaching out.
Hohenau looks nice!
Hello Dreamcast yes Hohenau is really nice 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Good. I am from Paraguay. Conozco Puerto Rico, San Juan, Ponce, etc. German is commonly spoken in Hohenau and that region of Paraguay. Visiten Encarnación y las ruinas jesuiticas. Welcome! Bienvenidos!
Hola si hemos estado en esos lugares muy bonitos de por cierto gracias por la amabilidad 😀😀
Thank you for sharing your experiences.
I respectfully encourage people who live in third world countries and who are already taking advantage of the cheaper cost of living as compare to the salaries they make to what we make in the US , to please don’t forget about tipping the nationals for their services.
Tipping is something that we have to do in the USA no matter what. And that should not change just because we are now in a different culture where tipping might not be the standard.
When I went to Paraguay I ALWAYS tipped. And I tipped them real good. Sometimes 50% , I mean in restaurants for example.
Thank you for your video. My greatest concern is with the corruption and the police and safety.
Also, I don’t know how much resources their hospitals actually have. Even their private ones.
If my total bill was $10 I would just give them $15…. The same dish would cost me around 25-30 plus taxes and tips in the USA anyways….
Maybe is just me, but I am poor and I know the value of each dollar and I know how much other that has less income than me would appreciate it.
On the other hand, I have been with others who take advantages of the cheaper cost of living and behaves stingy towards the nationals.
You are definitely right thank you for your advice
Nice video. You have an accent in English; are you Paraguayan? It sounds like you speak Spanish the way you pronounce "parentesis" and the word guarani. Thank you,
Good afternoon Jgonz yes I’m From Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 I speak 🗣️ Spanish also. Thank you
❤
Thank you
Nice video? I know you guys are American but how did you find out about Paraguay?
Good afternoon MC we was looking around in TH-cam about differences between countries and paraguay 🇵🇾 can up on our radar. We are really excited about this new journey with our kids here. If’s you have any more questions feel free to ask and thank you for reaching out.
Hey good job of explaining living in Paraguay. I’m a 62 year old native NYer who has been married to a Paraguayan born woman for over 35 years. For the last five years we have been to PY once a year and will be going again in early September 2024. People just do not know what a great country PY is. The friendly people, the food and to me the beauty of the country. Yes people do say Paraguay is not for everyone but for myself I consider it my second country. I know all my relatives in Italy won’t like that but that’s just how I feel. My wife still has a lot of family living there and still has her family home which is about 20 miles from Asuncion and pretty close to San Bernardino. Great location. Away from the crowds but just a few minutes by car if we need food or gas or whatever. And yes there is a good chance of living there more but I won’t say full time but you never know. Well sorry for my long life story but I get carried away sometimes. Your children seem like fine young men and I also have sons but they are all 25-30 years old and also fine young men. Yes I subscribed and will be watching. Ciao for now.
Sorry didn’t mean to put my comments under your post but it ended up here.
@@joececere4918 good morning thank you for your message Joe defiantly Paraguay is a beautiful country to enjoy locals are nice and welcoming. we have TP residency for 2 years and planning to renew for permanent residency.my mom is from Brooklyn NY but I born in Puerto Rico. you have a new friend here thank you
@@joececere4918 HI Joe is not problem sorry for the confusion.our channel name was the andinos family channel my last night husband decided to change for a new name so is all go thk
Outstanding video. Excelente. However $940.--- USD for groceries... WOW !!! That seems too high. In my worldwide travels, I'm retired USAF, I usually buy local not imported products. Could you please make a video about groceries, medical care and race relations. You soy Boricua y triguen~o. Gracias.
Hello vicent thank you for taking time to see our videos. About the 940.00$ we were family of 5 back in the state we just to spend away more. I will make a video definitely. We are Boricua’s
Also my wife forgot to mention that the grocery store she goes to is like a Publix in USA not local places… she likes it more and is very close
@@LIFEOUTOFHOME-q4i Gracias Hermano. I saw the other video that was $170. For a family of 5. Now that's good. I traveled a lot while in the US military but as a retiree I see too many so called " US expats" in Costa Rica and Panama. I'm looking forward to going to Paraguay for an extended visit. Thanks for the info. Gracias
Agreed. We don’t even spend that much at Publix here in Florida for us 4. Everything thing else sounds great though.
Could you recommend a real estate agent in the area?
Good afternoon Emilia I don’t know any one I went to market place in Facebook that’s how I found my rental I rent directly with the landlord
