Australians are required to have a ticket of departure as a requirement for the visa - or at least some kind of ticket to somewhere else, like back to Australia. They don't account for spontaneous travellers who don't know exactly where the universe is leading them - or when. So I wrote a letter to the consulate asking him to make a special consideration for me. It took 2 days and 3 visits to the embassy but they have finally accepted my pleas.
Tomorrow morning I will go get my visa - with promises to spend many gringo dollars in their country - and head immediately into Ciudad Del Este, Paraguay. It is a very unexplored country.

Estou muito feliz quando eu pensa sobre meu tudo experience aqui, e quando eu penso do tudo pessoas que eu encontrar em os tres ulimos meses. Tenho muito amor para seu pais e eu espero voltar rapidinho. Muito obrigado por tudo.
