Isolated tribe discovered in Paraguay {Gadling}
Mar 15th 2012 12:40PM Fascinating! I was in Paraguay not too long ago and went on an expedition to find a tribe living in the forests. They weren't uncontacted but they had gone back to living the traditional way. There's a lot to be said for a life away from the modern madness.
I wrote about the experience here: http://www.timetravelturtle.com/2012/02/paraguay-indigenous-village-concepcion/
