    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 have been as good as Paraguay.

    I don't mind the heat at all. If that's the worst of Paraguay, I'm still all for the place!

    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. 🎉

    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.

    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. :)

    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,

    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.

    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 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.

  • @mwaynerowe4782
    @mwaynerowe4782 Před měsícem +2

    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.

      There's dengue in Paraguay and other diseases - use insect repellent on your skin if you're worried

    • @dennisdow
      @dennisdow Před měsícem +1

      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.

    • @FutureFlyness
      @FutureFlyness  Před 3 měsíci +1

      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'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?

      @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...

    • @FutureFlyness
      @FutureFlyness  Před 2 měsíci +1

      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.❤
