A little bit about me and the way I see Paraguay
Writing this blog means so much to me, I can feel my passion about Paraguay, honestly I always loved it but maybe I was not aware of it as I’m now.
Now, I can see that what really matters for me besides my family and friends is the feeling that I belong to a place, and accept it the way it is.
Writing this blog makes me discover so many feelings, memories about my childhood and the grateful I’ am of have growing up there. In fact I’m discovering so many new things about Paraguay each day, and everytime that happens I think, I should blog about that, I should share what I know, thanks to the Internet, this is possible now!!
I use to go to Paraguay 3 months a year and most of my time I use to spend in Asuncion, until age 12 I used to live in Ciudad Presidente Stroessner, now days Ciudad del Este (about 360 km from Asuncion) that’s a border city, full of malls, shoppings, stores, etc.
Then we moved to the capital where I live until 5 years ago when I moved to Seattle. My life there was very interesting, I went to a German school, Goethe Schule and Aleman Concordia (my mom is German), after graduating from high school I went to Law school where I graduated at 22 years old and opened a legal office with a dear friend with whom I worked until I moved here in 2002, so I mostly lived in these 2 cities but each possible time I liked to travel to the country side, to remote places like Coronel Bogado, General Delgado, Yvytimi, Escobar, Villa Florida and many other little pueblos (towns), that seem to be forgotten in time.
I like to read, to write and to study new languages (I’ve been studying Chinese for 1 year now), blogging in English is somehow hard for me because my main language is Spanish and at home I speak German with my parents, but I’m trying my best to express myself good enough to make this blog somewhat interesting.
