    Just a week ago when I was in Lima I watched your video about Miraflores, a very nice and enjoyable video! I was also just outside Miraflores but went there on a daily basis to swim. I was surprised by how nice it was there, especially compared to other parts of the city. I just got into Asuncion and this popped up in my recommended, thanks for the videos
    Oh yeah and everything is super cheap here (mostly)

      Soy peruano. Conozco Chiclayo y no se parece absolutamente en nada a Asunción. A todas las ciudades de Perú les falta áreas verdes, porque sus alcaldes solo construyen “parques” llenos de cemento y mamarrachos de esculturas. Si uno quiere ver algo verde, tiene que salir de la ciudad.

    A few questions if you don't mind. What is the "street dog" situation like? Is Asuncion dog friendly? Also I understand that Central and South Americans are crazy for fireworks. Are there a lot of fireworks (aside from national celebrations) ? My dog gets scared. How are the mosquitos? Thanks for taking time to answer. Very interesting video = Thanks

    • @oldaloneandfarfromhome
      @oldaloneandfarfromhome  Před 8 dny

      There were some street dogs, but I've seen many more in other locations. As far as being dog friendly, I can't honestly say one way or another, as I didn't notice many dogs inside of cafes or other spaces. I remember hearing some fireworks, but that was maybe only one or two times. There were mosquitos and I was there for the beginning of winter, so they are a concern.
