If you’re based in Madrid, or even just visiting for a few days, planning a Segovia day trip from Madrid is one of the easiest and most worthwhile things you can do! I went recently, and overall, my experience was great. Segovia is a really beautiful town, very similar to Toledo in terms of architecture…
After living in Madrid full time for over a year now, one of the things I love most about life here is how easy it is to get around without a car. Madrid’s public transport system really has it all, and it’s a big part of why living both in the city and just outside…
If you’re planning to live or travel in Latin America — or anywhere as a digital nomad — your financial setup can either set you free or screw you over. I’ve been living in Latin America for over four years now — through Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina, and a few other stops along the way. I…
After living in Paraguay and throughout Latin America for the past couple of years, I’ve needed to learn how to dress for the heat—and I don’t just mean “it’s summer” hot. Paraguay is hands down one of the hottest countries I’ve ever experienced (it’s actually the hottest country in Latin America… not a great choice…
During my time living in Paraguay, I’ve had the chance to explore some beautiful spots throughout the country—places like Areguá for a quiet, artsy daytime getaway, or Loma San Jerónimo in Asunción, known for its colorful streets and views. But one place that really surprised me (in a good way) was Monday Falls—also called Salto…
One of my favorite things to do living in Asuncion is taking quick day trips outside the city. There’s so much more to see than just Asunción, and if you’re looking for a peaceful escape that’s close by, Areguá in Paraguay is a great option. While there are many options for day trips outside Asunción,…
After having lived in Paraguay for several years—and spending time living in both Asunción and Ciudad del Este—one of the biggest highlights of being based here has definitely been visiting Iguazu Falls from Paraguay. Famous worldwide, the stunning Iguazu Falls is on the bucket list of many who come to visit in this part of…
Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime across Paraguay. During this two week Paraguay itinerary, you will find that Paraguay has a large diversity of cultural, historical, and natural experiences, often undiscovered by tourists. As someone who has called Paraguay home for the past year, I’m excited to share an itinerary that captures the…
After travelling across all continents for a number of years, I eventually settled on residing in Paraguay as a digital nomad. There is so much I enjoy about this country, from the fresh and high-quality food, the green city of Asuncion, and the relaxed lifestyle that the major cities in Paraguay have to offer. I…
Introduction Crossing an international border on foot is always an adventure, but walking from Brazil to Paraguay across the Friendship Bridge is an experience like no other. As someone who has done this walk multiple times now, I can safely say that it’s not just about getting from one country to another—it’s about feeling the…
Introduction Taking a sleeper bus across Brazil is something I never expected to enjoy, but after spending 16 hours on a luxury bus from São Paulo to Foz do Iguaçu (nearby to Paraguay), I can now say it was an experience worth sharing. This was my first time taking a sleeper bus in Latin America,…
Many foreigners often think Paraguay consists only of the capital, Asuncion. However, when you get outside Asuncion and start exploring the rest of the country, there are countless activities to do… from exploring the border city of Ciudad del Este, cave diving (yes, this is available in Paraguay), and of course, exploring ancient ruins.
