@sheldonhickman2002 From what I understand based on a FaceBook forum, it depends on the crime and how long it has been since the conviction. Sally, who replied other posts in this forum, is an attorney and I would be confident in her responses. Try ... Read More

@sheldonhickman2002 Paraguay is much cheaper the CR but the medical isn't on par with them. Rather quiet with nothing like the night life that (used to be) in Tiawan. I can't speak for there now, but had 2 wonderful years 50 years ago. Read More

@hvandijk6 I doubt it. Certainly not in the 3 largest cities. You might be able to get that in some rural areas but I'm a bit pessimistic that even that could be done. Read More

@Isle JoyeuseShe might find adjusting to the Paraguayn Spanish odd at first as it's more of a Rioplantnese type Spanish with Guarani thrown in for added fun.It did snow in Encarnación in 1963. That city is in the most southern part of the ... Read More

No, you don't need to deposit money any more in a bank account. You should be able to come to Paraguay busing your EU documents. Like most of us, you'll have to leave every 90 days and come back in, much like many do in Thailand. You will have ... Read More

Hello. My name is Tina and I live in the USA. This question is not about me, but rather our son. He left back in February on a 90-day visitors visa with the intention to stay and help build an "ecovillage." The man he is doing this with is a South ...
It's too late to help your son, but I will post a reply in case anyone else is interested. Folks from the US can/should get a 10-year visa. That does NOT mean you can stay ten years. It's a prerequisite to temporary residency. However, if you ... Read More

I can't imagine trying to learn two new languages. Just curious what expats who are starting from scratch are studying, if at all.
@Mr. Barley I'm working on both Spanish and Guarani. I live in Encarnatión so the emphasis is on Spanish but I do want to keep advancing my Guarani. Read More
