About living in Paraguay and being part of this culture
The Paraguayans are the most nacionalist people in the world and the most incredible part of it is that they don't consider theirselves as nationalists.
They have a lot of habits that are part of their lives from morning to evening. I think the mean thing you have to do for become part of Paraguayan's culture is always have a "tereré" with you. "Tereré" is a kind of cold tea that they take everywhere they go: school, university, work, church, everywhere. I think this habit happens because of the heat. So there is no age or walk of life, if you are a Paraguayan, you certainlly drink "tereré".
Besides this drink, there are a lot of traditional foods, most based in corn like "chipaguazú" and the "Paraguayan soup", which is a kind of salty pie. And the most traditional food is the "chipa", that is on the table of each single Paraguayan in 365 days of the year.
Everything in Paraguay is based on the Paraguayan war: the names of the streets, the monuments around the city, and especially the holidays: the woman's day, the kid's day and a lot of local holidays are related with some happening in the war.
Anyway, the paraguayan are very kind and friendly people and their culture is an important part of the history of Latin America. Is a pleasure to me pass 2 years of my life here.
