Paraguay

Everybody has heard of Paraguay but to actually visit, even if it’s only for a day, is an amazing crazy experience. Ā We crossed the border from Foz do Iguazu, I suppose just to get the stamp in our passports, as most travellers do. Ā The experience was definitely different than anything else we have done on this amazing journey.

“Nobody can claim the name of Pedro, nobody is Rosa or MarĆ­a, all of us are dust or sand, all of us are rain under rain. They have spoken to me of Venezuelas, of Chiles and Paraguays; I have no idea what they are saying. I know only the skin of the earth and I know it has no name”

Pablo Neruda

The border town of Ciudad del Este is a hectic crazy place by any standard, just getting from the border to the local bus terminal was an experience. Ā Itapu dam is also an enigma the numbers are mind boggling, it’s huge and the amount of power it produces is incredible.
