I really enjoy your videos. They're positive, informative and thoughtful. Keep them coming and good luck.
Very kind of you
I appreciate the feedback
Have a good day
love it! i want to go here
You should go this year
Safe and the dollar goes far
Very nice video my friend. And I love how you used the analogy of the slowly growing city and not being in a rush... and not forgetting the past. Very well said.
It’s so nice to see old buildings being restored and turned into little restaurants and shops
hello friend, happy and safe travel😊
Thank you so much :-)
Have a good week
Songkran is coming soon :-)
Part psychologist part travel blogger 👌🏻
Yeah, true true haha
The spirit of Bodhisattva
Paraguay🇵🇾
Yes! Steak! Wine! Beautiful museums
Gosh I love watching your videos. You are very positive and always helpful. Thank you!
I love this
Thank you for the kind feedback
👍👍👍
Aloha to you !! Have a good day
Love the videos! FYI - At the 3:35 mark you say "Uruguay has..." Heh, heh. Did you forget where you were?
Oh really !? Good catch haha
Great meals at that prices. Hotel looked like a 4 star and hence the pricey stay. But the food was great value!
The price of steak and wine in South America was fantastic
You may want to listen to the song PARAGUAY MY LOVE by the band THE OCEAN BLUE
Very cool!
I will
Check this out
It’s beautiful. Not touristy or over populated. How would you rate the city ?
The city was walkable and low cost restaurants dotted around.
Museums
Art galleries
That hotel looked great but $50 is out of my budget for term travel. Unfortunately like you said that price seems like the going rate for much of South America. I’ve heard good things about Paraguay. Great video 👍
Very true CC
South America is double the costs of Asia
I’m enjoying it
But then back to Thailand
Meet me for songkran !
There is hostel for backpackers in downtown Asuncion called "The black cat". I believe it is still functioning,
Thanks for another great video. You seem to be moving pretty fast through SA. I always thought you were a little slower of a traveler. Safe travels!
True
In Asia I stay 30 days each location
I’m more comfortable there
And it’s half the cost
Wow south america
Yes
An interesting trip !
@@RetireandGo I heard peru, bolivia, Chile is awesome
Love it!...thank you
Thank you as well
All the best to you
Paraguay is a country I want to checkout as a possible retirement destination? I hear a lot of great things about the country. Are you planning on going to Nicaragua? I would love to know your opinion on life in Paraguay and life in Nicaragua, which country do you prefer living in longterm? Anyone else thoughts or opinion!
There are about 5 countries I’ll save for next year
Paraguay was interesting!
WC Philosophy: Asia has the Water Gun. In latin culture - the "Bidet" = clean butt in seconds! In US/EU= Use paper for hours n still smelly!😮😂
Yes! Are you going songkran this year?
@@RetireandGo I just might... I was there in 2019... And you?
I know your favourite area is SE Asia, but if you had to pick a country in the West which would you possibly take. It seems crime is higher in south and Central America
Costa Rica
It was so much fun
I loved it
Or Argentina
Please see my Latin America tour I did earlier this year
I actually been to Costa Rica was one of my favourite trips many moons ago and it was really cheap back then but I’ve heard that Costa Rica has gotten really expensive
Picturesque scenery. How much did you pay for your flight from Montevideo to Ascuncion?
Next destination will be 🇵🇪 Peru
Every south American hop was about 300
Kind of expensive
But I’m finding south American travel to be about twice the cost of Asia travel
Hey ! at timestamp 15:01 where is that , that water looks really inviting, that is not Paraguay is it ?
There is a river way that is quite large
The locals use it much like a lake for recreation
wow i cant believe thats the river@@RetireandGo
Curious why you don’t book Airbnb?
True I should look more into it
