I arrived safely in Paraguay on Friday 6th February, and in Santa Maria, Misiones - my home for the next six months - on Sunday.
I am staying with Demetria, a mother of five grown-up children who no longer live with her, and her chickens, ducks, three dogs, cat and budgie. The dogs and Mimi the cat all come and prostrate themselves at my feet at mealtimes or whenever they have the least suspicion that I might have something to eat. I never give in, but hope springs eternal. Demetria is very kind and laid-back with an excellent sense of humour - we laugh a lot.
