What is living in Paraguay like? We chat Simon who has lived in Paraguay for over 20 years! 

Definately. An English Gentleman in Piribebuy. Not many of those to be found. He has a lot of knowledge about the country.

Welcome, we think you'll enjoy it.

Thanks Liz!

Hi there. Funny you ask that; such a video has been on our minds. Hopefully we might get a vid out about that very subject shortly. There's a lot to consider regarding this.

Thanks so much for getting back! We also currently homeschool which looks to be legal in Paraguay. Do you know offhand if there are any va(cine requirements, or if you are allowed to decline all?

Happy to share our thoughts about that (a subject close to our hearts). If you shoot us an email we can speak more freely about such things...hola@adirtcheaplife.com.

A big topic. First, regarding groceries, if you go to our blog adirtcheaplife.com we have a post detailing costs of basic food items. You can rent a nice apartment for around $270 USD a month outside of Asuncion. I am talking about the Caacupe area (that's where we're located). $35-40k USD gets you a basic house (again, in the Caacupe area). If you want more specific information regarding real estate in Asuncion drop us an email and we can put you in contact with a reliable English speaking agent. Power/utilities are very cheap compared to just about anywhere I know. If you're frugal your $ can further here than most places.

thank you@@ADirtCheapLifeParaguay

Where are you bringing them from?

I know someone who brought a couple of big dogs from Spain.

We already are. We know a number of US families that have arrived within the past few weeks.

Thinking about it here. Hopefully with others who are like minded.

With discretion many things are achievable in Paraguay.
