Never use a credit card or debit card at a gas station or restaurant. Your transaction may be recorded on a video camera, the technician then forwards the info to a hacker. Common here in the DR....

Plain and simple. The ports of entry to the USA is tightening, the same is happening here, if it keeps on the tourist industry will turn to shit. Thanks to Das Fuhrer Herr Drumpf.

And I was informed that I needed a slip from a Doctor to be tested at a clinical lab. This is standard practice now. The results are easy to interpret, written in Spanish, POSITIVO / NEGATIVO. So now...

'inverted' orange sink. This is the El Chalo Bar on Calle 16 in Puerto Plata, famous disco for chicas of all colors. Across the street is the'Charly Bar, another Dominican watering hole. Soon the El...

60 miles of resorts, that is a lot of cement. For me, laying on a beach all day is boring. I will take the mountains, the trees, the people of the North any time over the boring landscape of Punta...

About 5 years ago a dominicana friend who is a naturalized US citizen was here on vacation. She owns a house and 4 WD, jeepeta here in the RD. It was late at night, she had left her boyfriend's bar,...

They are, were from Navarette. Famous for their movie a couple years ago. Both have had miles of pipe laid into them. Haven't seen either of one for more than 3 years, but then I don't frequent Sosua...

And when I send a cover letter, in this letter I ask them forthright, would you spend a night with me. Maybe one out of 10 will write back " I am not a prostitute". My reply always is this: I hate...

Twice I married a Filipina American. The only thing they think about is their status quo, their car is bigger, their house is bigger, their husband has more income, divorce a Filipina, you're fucked....

, well unflushed toilets are like this, this country sits on a rock, Dominicans don't flush paper down the toilets because the solid waste fills up the septic systems. Also, many places water is in...

Brings back a fond memory when I took a 7 day bike trip. Could not find a place to stay in Bonao, so I returned to the highway and got a room at this motel-hotel. Nice rooms blah blah, but it...

Long lines yesterday at the PN, National Police where processing was going on. Processing?? Power outage in the morning, and only one computer to process hundreds of Haitians. This is so barbaric.

I have stayed at this hotel several times. Located behind the Popular Bank, it is on a deadend street. Rooms are clean, but it is an older hotel, older furniture. Price offsets the higher end hotels...

You will find the pussy is never free!

But a Chevy Camaro, fire engine red. He used to race up and down the Puerto Plata Speedway, aka, the malecon. His luck ran out. The tree won!

I have it, got it about two months ago. Suffered through incredible pain, sick, sick sick. I should have gone for an injection but didn't until a relapse 6 weeks later. This time incredible cramps...

I've been living in an apartment on the malecon and the LOMAR is a two minute walk from my place. All you wrote is so true. I love it here and ain't goin' back!

And if you are budget minded, stay there, if you like privacy, stay there. The rooms vary in quality but all are clean. No problems bringing women to your room. It is located behind the Popular Bank,...

Few banks will exchange them, and you might find yourself waiting in a long line only to find out that you need to go to another bank branch for processing them. Use your debit card from your home...

And I was on my motorcycle. This road is for SUV's and motorcycles. Much is unpaved or full of pot holes. But it is a spectacular ride and the scenery is awesome. While on my motorcycle I got stuck...

First some banks allow up to a withdrawal of 10,000 pesos a day, next is your card a debit or credit card. My USA bank debit card allows me to withdraw $300 a day or more than 12,000 pesos, the...

It's on the malecon in Puerto Plata, rooms with AC run about 1200 / day, depends on the room, up to 1600/ day. Beach across the street, restaurants nearby, like most hotels, chicas need an I'd to get...

The big difference is they tax the shit out of the rich, here in the DR the rich pay little in taxes, except on the VAT tax. A few fat few on top, a huge poor population.

Your credit card is just as safe here at a Sirena as it is in the USA, outside of the Sirena is about 5 ATMs and they are about as safe to use as any in the USA, just use a debit card in a safe area...

Depends on the hunter searching for the thrill of the hunt in the wild or on a game preserve?
