Paraguay, here i come!

i'm starting to get more and more excited for my trip to Paraguay. granted, i make it through the insane amount i have to work before we go (basically a full time job covering for a lady while she's gone for a month, and then doing part time on top of that...) but at least it'll actually FEEL like a well-deserved break. i've been talking to my cousin who lives in Asuncion (the capital city) and i was telling her that i'd really like to explore the city with her for a bit and maybe go out dancing with some of my cousins. i'm really excited because usually we just go to the small town of Loma Plata to spend time with family. not that i dont love doing that, but it's just that i've been to Paraguay at least 5 times now and have never actually experienced anything but Loma Plata and i haven't explored at all. i mean, living in Loma Plata is completely different than what i'm used to at home: it's a tight knit mennonite community, all dirt roads, the best fruit i've ever had, snakes, everyones farms are only about a half hour to 45 minute drive away... and i always have fun there, but i'd like to see more of Paraguay. hopefully it works out that a few cousins and i make a trip out there and explore. i think it would be awesome to see the city my dad grew up in!
