I'm jumping on a plane in a couple of hours and heading to Paraguay for a little over a week. I'll be spending my time in Asuncion, viewing the tourist sights in that city for a couple of days and then traveling to different parts of Paraguay to additional tourist sites. The plan is to do the tourism thing in the morning and then monger in the afternoon or evening when I have the time. Scroll down a couple of posts; yes, it took over three years to make a trip to Paraguay a reality.

I'll be concentrating my mongering efforts with the help of the following website:

https://www.hot.com.py/

Pre-trip research shows the WGs to be a mixture of independents and working at casas. I'll likely do the casa thing, as there are a couple not too far from the hotel where I'll be lodged.

Look for my trip report, to be posted (hopefully) sometime in April.

In December 2019, I said this in the forum:

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, I will be in Paraguay and Uruguay during the second half of January 2020. The plan is to do the tourism thing in Asuncion and Montevideo during the day and monger if / when I have the opportunity at night.

Thanks to everyone who have filed reports in the Asuncion forum. Hopefully, I'll bring back some fresh information that folks can use later.

Well, unfortunately, one of those unforeseen circumstances popped up, and as a result, I've postponed my trip. I'm keeping an eye out to see when this year I can reschedule, but I wouldn't be surprised if I'm not able to go until this time next year.

In the Asuncion forum, one of the online sites mentioned was:

https://www.hot.com.py/

Of all of the WGs listed on that site, the hottest ones seemed to be associated with "Modelitos Faranduleras Nivel VIP Universitarias":

https://www.hot.com.py/universitaria...rsitarias.html

With that agency, you can tell by the way the WGs pose that some of the girls are the same but listed under different names, like "Mika" and "Valentina. " Prices of the girls are high, but might be worth it if the girls are actually who the agency says they are. Direct delivery to motels and hotels is promised, and the agency also uses WhatsApp. I sent them a message and asked if they have an actual homepage, and while they viewed the message, I never received a response. Still, "Universitarias" is probably the route I'll go once I actually make it to Asuncion.

So that's it. Apologies to anyone who was waiting on fresh information from me regarding the mongering scene in Paraguay. I'll post an announcement here in the forum as soon as I've rescheduled my trip.

I'll be going to CDE sometime next week. It depends on how much I like it here in Foz Do Iguacu. And I actually kind of like it here.

I will spend a few days in CDE and then either take a bus or fly to ASU, and stay in ASU 5-7 days. That sort of depends on how much I like these places.

I have hurry up plans and may visit Paraguay in August. Anyone else being there at that time, just PM me. I am planning some days in Paraguay and some in Columbia.

I'll be in ASU from August 14 till August 20th. Will take bus to CDE on August 21, visit Eros club, see falls next day and visit Eros club at night, return to ASU on August 23. Stay till August 24 and travel back to Lima on August 25. Plans firmed up.

I'm still here in Centro Asuncion. If you plan on visiting or if you are already here, send me a PM if you like chicas. Every guy is different, but I feel I learn from other guys' experiences. Coffee? Glass of wine or beer? I don't check PMs often on this site, so I apologize in advance if I miss you.

[Member #4179]

I would like to meet with like-minded gentlemen to talk about the local scene. Some of us truly admire the chicas; others don't. You might as well know that I am in the category of admiring the chicas and what they have to offer. So if you are like-minded and if you would like to get together for a drink or a coffee in the near future, let me know. I don't check this site so often, so please be patient.

[Vagabundo69]

Who's going to be there?

Would love to meet up with like minded travelers / residents.

Never was able to use PMs here, but let me know if you are going to be around and how to contact you.

well, for your further convenience, they don't really speak southern cone spanish in asunción. instead they speak a fucked up blend of rioplatense spanish (castellano) mixed with words borrowed from guaraní. i am quite fluent and it is very hard for me to understand. plus half of them are using vos and half of them are using tu. every time i open my mouth they ask me if i am german which is starting to [CodeWord140] me off. and i do not recognize half of the fruits i see in the market. a month i dunno. i am on day nine and i am definitely done. but i will post some apartment info i ran across; maybe you can use it.

i'm not as fluent in spanish as dh, but i grew accustomed to the paraguayan accent after a couple of weeks. i found that spanish is the dominant language in asuncion, but as one ventures further away from the center there is a stronger mix of guarani & spanish called jopará. this is from wikipedia:

jopará (guaraní: [&607; opa&712; &638; a] or yopará (spanish: [&669; opa&712; &638; a]) is a colloquial form of guaraní spoken in paraguay which uses large numbers of spanish loan words. its name is from the guaraní word for "mix."

the majority of paraguayans, particularly younger ones, speak some form of jopará.

since 1992, under the paraguay's ministry of education and culture (mec) act, guaraní in its "pure form" — different from the day-to-day speech of jopará — has been taught in schools. this led to contradictory opinions: some say that teaching pure guaraní is the best means to preserve the language's integrity while others argue that how guaraní is taught differs greatly from how it is commonly spoken.

some spanish words when put in a sentence mixed with guaraní have a different meaning than that of standard spanish.

the relative amount of guaraní or spanish used in speech varies depending upon the birth of the speaker, the place where he speaks, with whom he is speaking, the topic of discussion, and how he or she wants their meaning to be interpreted. generally the rural and older population tends to use more guaraní while the urban and younger population uses more spanish. the rural and older population understands more guaraní and the urban and younger more spanish. general and every-day conversation is more suited to guaraní, while technical and specific conversation is more suited to spanish. guaraní can be interpreted as more "paraguayan" while spanish can be interpreted as more "sophisticated."
