How does a hockey-loving kid from Pittsburgh become a celebrity in Paraguay?

The answer, my friends, is social media – specifically, Instagram. Today we’re joined by Chad Uddstrom, the man behind the popular Instagram site @TheBroAbroad.

Chad shares his Tales of how a little trip to South America after a breakup began a love affair with the continent.

From Colombia, he found his way to oft-overlooked Paraguay, and by showing his exploits on-line, Paraguay took notice.

Chad soon saw his Instagram numbers blow up, and appearances on local Paraguayan TV followed. He has no immediate plans to return to the US.

Chad recounts his unique journey, and also shares great South America travel tips.

Thanks, Chad!
