I lived in Paraguay from age 6 to 9. Decades later I still miss it. Believe it or not. After that I have lived in different countries. None has been as good as Paraguay.
Calm is a hallmark of Paraguay. Lived there for about 20 months, 6 in Fernando de la Mora and now Encarnacion. Sorry you arrived just in time for the hot season. Normally, folks get to work VERY early and finish before noon, so they aren't in the heat. People who work retail can't do this but they usually have AC. If you get outside of Asunción, it's even more chill with better infrastructure in some cities such as Encarnación. Also notably cheaper. As an American I've always felt like clothes or attitude are the only things that will tip a Paraguayo off that you are a foreigner. Until you speak of course. :)
I was just there end of August first of September. It was different than I thought. I loved my trip. I was there for a convention and I love the people. I really miss the friends I made and want to come back to visit.
The hot weather is from NOV-DEC until March or so. In the winter, at around July it can be cold in the 40’s and 50’s but not consistently. In the South near Encarnación is even colder reaching almost freezing on certain days,
Great breakdown, my friend! I agree with your insights after just a week. I'm curious to see if you'd consider living in Paraguay long term. Good luck in all your travels!
Hey there Brother Great Video. Currently, Living in Jamaica. But i am Moving to Paraguay soon. Paraguay will be my main home and Jamaica my favourite place aha. About the humidity, 38 is excellent. It gives you a chance to sweat. Enjoy the detox - in Japan and Korea, the humidity goes up to 100 percent, and at higher temperatures too. This means there is so much moisture in the air that people can't sweat. It's not uncommon for even the locals to go to hospital for the drip therapy to cool down in the summer. Anyways thanks again and one Love to the people. 🎉
@@spacesandplacesoutthere Yes and then in winter they have to deal with a combination of very dry air and heightened pollution levels. So tough If you are an athlete or singer like me. That being said, when it's good there, it's Utopian - but also Japanese people are very enduring too. They have like 150 earthquakes a day there. That's another story lol.
Hola Amigo, Another informative video. Regarding SIM cards. Did you have a SIM prior to arriving so you were up and running when you did arrive, using Uber, etc ? I have a SIM I use and can recharge online for México, Telcel, but am not aware of anything for Paraguay.
i think he would have to trade in his cellphone on a branch that fraternizes with claro or personal sim card, they wont charge him much, max 200$ for a better phone(assumin he has an iphone)
I was born there, been in the states for a while now thinking of relocating back to Paraguay. Is there any EVs / Teslas out there, have u seen any solar powered homes? 👍
de verdad les digo, el ventilador no les va abastecer para el calor de aca, ,ejor seria un aire acondicionado, aca no es dificil de conseguir Exitos para los que vengan
Yes, it's really hot here but most of us are already used to it, for some of us 25°C is "chilly" 😂. By the way, that's why most of us prefer Brazilian beaches (near where the Capricorn tropic passes as well) for holidays than Argentina's which for our heat standard are "freezing". The northern region that we call Chaco paraguayo or Chaco Boreal is even hotter - and there are brave people living and working there. 🌵🌴☀️✨
It's super humid so when it's 110 degrees it's like being in a pressure cooker. Really limits what you can do. Power outage means no AC and trust me it's brutal till the power returns.
Always a potential risk, especially in areas with rivers or standing water. Some places at higher risk for them have great mosquito control but insect repellent is recommended. Neither dengue nor chikungunya have high fatality rates but are both literally painful while you have it.
I love the content. I was looking at things about Mexico, and your video came up. I saw you made some videos about Paraguay, and I've been there twice. I love going there. I would like to get residency there as well. I have other places in the country to explore. Have you visited Taj Asunción or Negroni? Those are some good spots to visit and plenty of baddies there.
Glad you're enjoying the videos. You should follow up on the residency in Paraguay, I heard its fairly simple to get. Never been to those spots but I'll check them out soon thanks 👌
I've been here for 9ver two yrs. People are nice and friendly,which is nice. Now...there is no accessable nature,you gotta pay ,if you want to see any nature. Quality of products are very low,not much variety when it comes to fruits and vegetables. In many cases it is more expensive than in europe with worse quality. Foget bout finding a job(minimum wage is around 15€ a day) Like i said,people are very nice and friendly,weather is very nice and it feels quite safe. Probably will leave sometime next year.
@@Blue_SeaSmoke I'm from Africa and a USA citizen. Why do you think he looks very Eastern African. He could be from the southern part, West Africa or anywhere in Africa. But I think from his accent he's American.
Hello there, great video, thanks for visiting my country, summer time is the worst season to be here, even we cant stand it, in January actually we go away to Brasil or Argentina on vacation to stay away from the heat, but starting Fall temperature gets down a few degrees.
I'm looking to move to Paraguay this year, so thanks for the video. BTW you didn't talk about: How do the single women treat black men? Do they see us as bad, undatable creatures good only for money and sometimes sex, or are they open to legitimate monogamous loving relationships (making families) with us?
En Paraguay no existe el racismo todos somos iguales. Todas las culturas y personas son bienvenidas mientras no insultes nuestra forma de vida. Aqui hay muchas mezclas y son felices.
@lauradure2269 Te aprecio, pero lo siento tu explicación no es la realidad 😅 hay MUCHO clasismo y racismo en Latinoamericana, especialmente aquí en Colombia donde yo estaba viviendo por más que 1 año. Por eso, me gustaría oír de un negro (como yo) quien vive en Paraguay...
I have not gathered much knowledge on those topics so far but given the fact that there are almost no blacks or even brown skinned people in this country (from what I have seen so far), dating might be a challenge. Racism may or may not exist here but prejudice does
Hi @ChineduOpara, Rasism is much less here in general. People are curious to meet new people, warm, kind and the women overall are more on the modest, feminine side. I didnt see much of any anti black eyes here, the polar opposite of Argentina. But you should come and explore, best of wishes for you and your future wife and family.❤
It's relative, like many things. For most Americans it is, but from my experience, Arizona, Texas, and South Dakota (of all places) were hotter in my opinion.
@@FutureFlyness Where is a safe city in Colombia to live? Pereira, Armenia, Manizales are those safe and beautiful cities in Colombia! 🇨🇴 Did Barranquilla have the hottest women???
I wish you the best, but your experiences in Paraguay are not quite realistic. This is a country where the police are more dangerous than the criminals, where drugs and contraband rule the economy, and corruption is baked into every institution. If you don't have the cash to live in a safe area, then you you will soon discover the reality of Paraguay. It is not Mexico or Costa Rica, nor is it the country from the movie 'Boys of Brazil'. Visit? Yes. Live there? NEVER.
@@marciafranco1863We already have one lol, look at 2020 you are fooling yourself if you think otherwise. What I WANT is the world to belong to everyone. What is reality is not up to me.
I don't mind the heat at all. If that's the worst of Paraguay, I'm still all for the place!
Same. I love the heat. I only dislike cold.
Thank you so much for your words about Paraguay!!! I wish you have a very good time here!!! Greetings!!!

Good tips/info, thank you
Paraguay seems a nice place to visit and spend time😮
Thanks for sharing this. Some great info.
You got that right it is a safe, relaxing and welcoming place. I have lived out in the countryside for years where it is even more so
1. Heat
2. Calm
3. Lovely people
4. Safe
5. Cheap

You’re welcome. No, visa free up to 90 days

I love paraguay im from there, parents are i was born in the USA CONNECTICUT i was there in March im going back in December now. I love Paraguay
All my 200+ cousins, Tia's, Tios live from San Antonio to villa elisa to Asuncion
I wish the weed was better
I wish I could consider Asuncion, but that heat sounds unbearable
Might not be too bad once you experience it yourself
Great video!
did you buy that ice fan in paraguay or you brought it from the states
The states
I was born there, been in the states for a while now thinking of relocating back to Paraguay. Is there any EVs / Teslas out there, have u seen any solar powered homes? 👍
Never seen any teslas/EVs here, nor solar powered homes but I’m sure they have thoses somewhere
Thanks for visit my country. Weather is very hot between september and march.

what about mosquitoes?
they haven't bothered me that much but are annoying as always
There's dengue in Paraguay and other diseases - use insect repellent on your skin if you're worried
Always a potential risk, especially in areas with rivers or standing water. Some places at higher risk for them have great mosquito control but insect repellent is recommended. Neither dengue nor chikungunya have high fatality rates but are both literally painful while you have it.

What else have you learned in the last 3 weeks?
check some shorts I recently posted
I heard that Paraguay was really hot.
It's relative, like many things. For most Americans it is, but from my experience, Arizona, Texas, and South Dakota (of all places) were hotter in my opinion.
You were not wrong about how hot it is 🥵 Rohayhu PY!!
So you like living in Paraguay more than living in Colombia or Panama? Are the Paraguayan girls attractive!
@@christopherhouse7937 def more than Panama. Nothings topping Colombia. & yes they are

Did you use uber or a taxi.

Here Uber is OK but Bolt is another alternative. Now that I'm settled in, I use taxis as well. Im in Encarnación however.
