  • Tracking the Jaguar Wednesday 19.09.07 In preparation for leaving Asunción, there were a few bureaucratic hoops to jump through; once again I had found myself enjoying a place so much, i was close to overstaying my Visa. Despite a couple of days of running Posted by Jeremy T in Channelling the Cane Spirits | Feb 21, 2008
  • Whip it! Friday 14.09.07 My Spanish school played host to a party at night, kicking off with the usual drinking and socialising, and typically for Latin America, the meat took centre stage, but Sopa Paraguaya (not a soup at all) featured as Posted by Jeremy T in Channelling the Cane Spirits | Feb 20, 2008

  • Only in *insert Latin American country here* Thursday 06.09.07 My life in Latin America contains structure, form and function right now, and i never thought I'd relish the boredom quite so much. Asunción is a great place to study, it is quiet enough to be able to complete Posted by Jeremy T in Channelling the Cane Spirits | Feb 19, 2008
  • A Class Divided Saturday 01.09.07 Marité and Juan Carlos woke me up a lot earlier than i would have hoped; i had only returned from the previous night's drinking foray a few hours before. As we headed in the car to the rowing club, Posted by Jeremy T in Channelling the Cane Spirits | Feb 18, 2008
  • A taste of things to come... Tuesday 28.08.07 There was something instantly likeable about this place, beyond the classic Latin American grid-patterned streets. Asunción, i quickly discovered, has a small-town feel, a closeness which one wouldn't expect to find in a country Posted by Jeremy T in Channelling the Cane Spirits | Feb 18, 2008
  • Fresh Meat Saturday 25.08.07 On Thursday night sometime during sleep, my left foot had been bitten by an insect, and for the last couple of days had been swelling slowly and causing a bit of discomfort. The creature, named Mbarigüí in [i]Guar Posted by Jeremy T in Channelling the Cane Spirits | Feb 18, 2008
  • Northern Argentina and Paraguay (ickle bit of Brasil too) Moved from Calafate to BA by plane. Some of the stretches of road down here are lengthy to say the least. It was fly or take the bus for 2 days straight. As much as that would have been fun Posted by lidster in The Americas - Out of sorts | Jan 4, 2008
  • 3 countries IN A DAY!!! After leaving Puerto Iguazu (Argentina) we headed into Paraguay via Brazil - we are so worldly!

  • Famous for: Corruption, Contraband and the Chaco That is the quick description of Paraguay in my south american travel guide. Interesting. Why would I want to go there?? And my answer is: Why not?? Every traveller I met has questioned my choice of travelling through Paraguay... What is Posted by miromar in South America 2007 | Jun 29, 2007
  • Paraguay Asi es como se describe este pais normalmente. Y he de reconocer que cuando cruce el puente que cruza el rio parana, y que separa Argentina de Paraguay, pense, "pues a lo mejor es cierto". Y he de añadir que Posted by miromar in Sudamerica 2007 | Jun 29, 2007

  • Bus Disaster Getting to Brazil.... one word: disaster. In every way shape and form possible, a straight disaster. Up until this moment Diana and I had been very lucky in successful and enjoyable travels (even on the long bus rides) well six Posted by AngBaxter in South America | May 30, 2007
  • Sh America - 7 - Posada to El Chaco So we decided to go to Paraguay via Posada in Argentina for less border problems.
