Some Photos of My First Few Days in Paraguay

Made it to Paraguay and its Beautiful!

Made it to Paraguay and its beautiful!

I have to keep this brief because I do not have broadband yet nor a charger converter. It is going so well! The first few days have flown by! My host family is wonderful. I just have a 64 year old Mama (Romi) and a 69 year old Papa (Tor)  =) But everyone who lives in Guasu Cora (the little town I live in) are relatives pretty much. My Mama y Papa have 1 son Carlos who has two grandsons Luis 21 years old and Marco 18 years old. Both of the grandsons are in a university in Asuncion one Luis is studying medicine and Marco is studying technology.

I am adjusting very well and I love it here! Everyone is super nice and I stay hydrated with drinking lots of Terrer! Which is yerba mate =)

I’ll update you all more soon! Thanks for reading!

I have a couple pictures to share with you all.
