General Info

[Oakie]

Being in a position to avoid many months of Midwest winter, I would welcome your thoughts. I'm, ideally seeking a place in the sun that I can lease from November through March that has a reasonable size English speaking expat community. I enjoy conversation but I speak very little Spanish and at my age (60's) it's slow learning. My plan is to come home only for Christmas.

Is the DR a place with comfortable (3-4 star) accommodations, plentiful good food and drink, compatriots, and affectionate women?

Sosua has a reasonable size English speaking ex pat community, a couple of nice beaches, and lots of restaurants, bars, and women.

[Mr Enternational]

Ahm. Com licena. ". I'm getting ready to lay my number on her and the fat woman with her starts yelling at me in Portuguese. I have no idea what she was saying, my guess is "you fucking scumbag Gringo, she's only 16".

Funny. I was on Copacabana beach and saw this chick and her mom who were beach vendors. I went to the mom and asked permission to talk to her daughter and she cussed me the fuck out saying there were many hookers around if I wanted a girl. I said lady I am not looking for a hooker.

[Triple Darknes]

In Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda I managed to find someone to rent one of them workhorse things you see the locals on everywhere. In DR I did the same thing as in the Philippines, just walk into a dealer, handover about US $1,600 and ride away.

Jaja. Well said amigo. In the Philippines no one's ever heard of the concept "right of way". There is no doubt whatsoever they will turn in front of you. But everything is in slow motion, they rarely get past 25 KPH. In DR they are better drivers but everything is a bit faster, but they probably will not turn in front of you. Just stay to the right and you'll probably live. In these places a general rule is just pretend like everything is a guided missile trying to kill you, including the road itself. And go slow. Thailand is easy but I have a friend that died because he was going way too fast as usual (we kept warning him) and he hit a dog. There, just drive slowly (cha cha noi). Vietnam is nuts because minimum speed is 120. But they're good drivers so there's hope. Africa, as you know, everything is ultra high speed too. Whenever you see an accident, usually everyone is dead. The car looks like a crushed beer cans. Furthermore, every vehicle comes as close to you as possible, and motorcycles might as well be invisible. They will literally run you in a ditch if they can. All bets are off, you just need good karma. Plus you're on this heavy ass funky contraption that's hard to maneuver. Highly unrecommended. But I love riding bikes, and it's the best way to get off the track and see shit you normally would never see. Great way to meet native chicks too, as you say, Trip.

You should man, highly recommend. Every time I see something I like I slam on the brakes. Always have my number ready. But I can't recall any roadside strikes here in DR, but in the Philippines I got some of my best girlfriends trolling the squatter villages. In Kigali I was following some dirt road up the side of a mountain. I stopped because my fucking helmet kept falling off the back. I look up the side of the hill and there's this super cutie staring at me. 20 minutes later I'm inside her little house. Two days later, her friend who was even hotter than her was inside my house.

Philippines, yes. But brace yourself to begin texting more than you ever thought humanly possible. Rio, no.

Your mileage will vary of course but based on my extremely limited experience in Rio, I'the say that's likely where you'll end up. To be honest, those places aren't really my thing either. I was lucky to find someone sort of in the middle that kept me happy.

Exactly, Mr E. And what you told me PM was exactly right. But again, only a couple months in only Centro, Copa and Ipanema, I'm barely qualified to comment. But I don't think it would even matter if I was conversational in Portuguese. And even if I was younger with a bodybuilder frame. It's not that these girls are snobby or bitchy, they simply don't seem all that interested. It's almost the opposite of Philippines. I never once had a gaggle of hot Brazilian teenagers dropping their pencils and falling over themselves giggling trying to talk to me. I still intend to write a report on that page. But unless you're like Mr E and already know a lot of chicks, you'll likely be door to door in 20 story office buildings. That is, when your fuckin jaw isn't dropping as you're roaming around the beach cities looking at all the mostly naked insane asses that you really want. In my experience I can get better regular chicks in DR than I can in Rio. But I'm conversational in Spanish at least. And here they seem more hungry for gringo (gringo money).



Hear! Hear! That's one reason I like DR. That's still available here. Funny story: last year I turned out this Haitian chick. Her job was a salsa dancer, she made around 300 p per gig as I recall. After our first date she told me I was "mui cerca". Whatever. Because my hands were going up both sides of your ass in your little mini skirt? I said I like you but this is going to take way too long. She said well, I have a dream too. I said I know, blah blah blah. Husband, babies. She said no. I want to have my own business. I need $300 USD. If you wear a condom we can start shagging now. I just started laughing. You mean 300 divided by 10, right? And I don't even know what a condom is. I started to write a report here titled How To Talk To a Prostitute That Isn't a Prostitute. Long fuckin text conversation ensued with her getting pissed off. "If you're going to help someone you do it because you want to, not because you want pussy". I said I know! Jaja. If you're going to give someone pussy you do it because you want to, not because you want money! Anyway, she came to me a couple times but stopped because it was taking too long to get the only thing she really wanted. Anyhow, I text her up recently and said I'm coming back. I have a proposition for you. In America they're making $13 an hour for a regular job. I'll offer you that much if you want to come to me, you already know what I like. She said OK. So we'll see how that goes.

That's hilarious man. "Happy anniversary Baby. We chose the wrong (right) spot. ".

WTF is that? 🤔 If I have to use a rubber to shag someone, I don't need to shag them that bad.

Not every one, but I like it dark. I was sitting in my favorite restaurant in Davao, Bon Apptit, and I saw Rosalie stressing out because it looked like they would be shut down. I like food too much so I barely made it the fuck out of there.

That also. If I could get back into the Philippines, and not have to walk around in a goddamn space suit, I probably would. I have an awesome girlfriend there. If I could just paint her nipples black, that might be spicy enough. That's what I like about the DR, more of that nice chocolate color. If you can just go three sentences without them talking about money.



That's funny shit man (pun intended). What if she's your girlfriend and she gets those grape looking things from that hole being stretched out? Sorry, I know this is the DR thread but this reminds me of one last story. In the DR I've met chicks in malls. I actually caught one following me once. I finally stopped her on her third pass and gave her my number. Anyway, was in Rio Sul Mall and I was behind this smokin cutie riding up the escalator. We got to the top and she went left so I purposely went right as to not look like I was following her. We finally met back around and I approached her. ". Ahm. Com licena. ". I'm getting ready to lay my number on her and the fat woman with her starts yelling at me in Portuguese. I have no idea what she was saying, my guess is "you fucking scumbag Gringo, she's only 16". But she damn sure looked like an adult to me. What cracked me up about it was I'm just thinking. Here these chicks are, getting fucked in the ass all the time, and I'm not even allowed to say Hello,? Jaja. WTF.

I get it you're like me. Frankly I don't like to talk to working girls, I started with non pro's and that's been my specialty. I had a chick who wanted to be my GF who offered me her friend. The friend was too fat for me so I passed, besides I don't want chicas thinking they could bring me anything and I'll fuck it.

Brazil is starting to look more meh to me even though I will probably still go. I was planning to stay in Juiz de Fora and go to Rio on weekends but again spolied by Africa and the DR and don't like places where it's hard to get a Mall Food court pick up. That's one of the downsides to Colombia in general harder to get Mall pussy.

Did you buy the Motocycle? Is it really 1600?

[Sam 14]

How did you rent the bike and how much did it cost?

In Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda I managed to find someone to rent one of them workhorse things you see the locals on everywhere. In DR I did the same thing as in the Philippines, just walk into a dealer, handover about US $1,600 and ride away.

Fuck that. I am trying to go from a car to a tank and you are willing to be ass out on a bike with those crazy drivers and messed up roads.

Jaja. Well said amigo. In the Philippines no one's ever heard of the concept "right of way". There is no doubt whatsoever they will turn in front of you. But everything is in slow motion, they rarely get past 25 KPH. In DR they are better drivers but everything is a bit faster, but they probably will not turn in front of you.

.. I would love to cruise south or north coast towns trolling for pussy

Tell me about Rio and the Phillipines? ..,,,, in cities like Nairobi you can easily meet and shag a girl quite easily... My question is Rio like that?

Philippines, yes. But brace yourself to begin texting more than you ever thought humanly possible. Rio, no.

..Frankly I will go to a Prive or a Terma but If I can't meet "non pro's" I don't want to go.

Your mileage will vary of course but based on my extremely limited experience in Rio, I'the say that's likely where you'll end up. To be honest, those places aren't really my thing either. I was lucky to find someone sort of in the middle that kept me happy.

Don't cheat yourself. But your style of mongering is not really prevalent in Brazil. Chicks that are not actual hookers are in school and have jobs and have families that care so they are not out like that.

Exactly, Mr E. And what you told me PM was exactly right. But again, only a couple months in only Centro, Copa and Ipanema, I'm barely qualified to comment. But I don't think it would even matter if I was conversational in Portuguese. And even if I was younger with a bodybuilder frame.

In my experience I can get better regular chicks in DR than I can in Rio. But I'm conversational in Spanish at least. And here they seem more hungry for gringo (gringo money).

.Also I'm a budget monger spoiled by Africa I don't like to pay more than 35 bucks tops for pussy.

Man of my own heart. I just don't see a need to pay that much.

Hear! Hear! That's one reason I like DR. That's still available here. Funny story: last year I turned out this Haitian chick. Her job was a salsa dancer, she made around 300 p per gig as I recall. After our first date she told me I was "mui cerca". Whatever. Because my hands were going up both sides of your ass in your little mini skirt?

So we'll see how that goes.

..My first time in Brazil was 2001 and me and my wife's first anniversary trip. The morning we got back home I told her I did not want to be married anymore. .

That's hilarious man. "Happy anniversary Baby. We chose the wrong (right) spot. ".

Again full disclousure I don't wear condoms.

WTF is that? 🤔 If I have to use a rubber to shag someone, I don't need to shag them that bad.

Finally why hopscotch from Phillipines to Brazil to DR? Are you a dude who kinda wants to fuck every girl you can?

Not every one, but I like it dark. I was sitting in my favorite restaurant in Davao, Bon Apptit, and I saw Rosalie stressing out because it looked like they would be shut down. I like food too much so I barely made it the fuck out of there.

.. Variety is the spice of life.

That also. If I could get back into the Philippines, and not have to walk around in a goddamn space suit, I probably would. I have an awesome girlfriend there. If I could just paint her nipples black, that might be spicy enough. That's what I like about the DR, more of that nice chocolate color. If you can just go three sentences without them talking about money.

I heard that Brazil was anal city. I'm not the biggest fan of anal but.

..My main girlfriend from Brazil was juat in the States with me for 3 weeks over New Years. All she wants to do is fuck in the ass. And I hate that shit. I told her that I am a straight guy that likes pussy.

That's funny shit man (pun intended). What if she's your girlfriend and she gets those grape looking things from that hole being stretched out? Sorry, I know this is the DR thread but this reminds me of one last story. In the DR I've met chicks in malls. I actually caught one following me once.

Where do you plan on going in the car? Renting has gotten very expensive because it is now mandatory to get their insurance. Plus there were already exorbitant taxes. So whatever price you see for the car, double it. Next week in Santo Domingo a car is going to cost me $215 for 4 days, whereas I used to pay as low as $14 per day. So if there is really no place you had planned on needing to drive, then it is best to go with the taxi or Uber.

I have lived in the DR for decades.

I have 4 vehicles, and yet I use UBER more and more every week. For the most part, it works very well; only the occasional "Yo, I need more, that tariff is too low" which I ignore and let them cancel, I never do.

When it does happen, it's usually because I live outside of Santo Domingo, which will probably not be an issue for most folks.

UBER is the way to go. Taxi's are not as good, but acceptable.

[Cestme]

I found a reliable Uber driver whoI secured for my travel needs. I pay a bit more then he would make normally and bit less then the cabs. We know each other now and he is thrilled to drivr me around. Ususally a propina when I leave. He picks up my girls and I never have to worry about getting around.

OldKool. I also have had two amigo taxista for the more than 9 yrs that I have been visiting the DR. The one I had, even before the introduction of Uber in the DR, sadly passed away last year. We would take a ride to places like San Pedro de Macoris (the oasis of GFE chicas in the DR), and back to the capital after spending about one hour in the home of the chica, for less than 2,000 pesos. This was based on mutual trust that was developed with time. Like you said, he would pick up and drop off, my chicas at the the various paradas or homes, without me tagging along. I occasionally brought him token gifts, including Cialis, and he was equally thrilled to provide me with rides at below market fare for a cab but a bit above Uber's. In fact, last Saturday the amigo taxista that I now have, took me from the Malecon where I am staying, to Megacentro to pick up my GFE chica on an agreed 700 pesos round trip fare. While there at the Megacentro, I was trying to rush things up, knowing time was precious for him. Instead, he told me no worries and for me to take my time. For that gesture, I gave him 1,000 pesos instead of the agreed upon 700 pesos. It is essential to build this type of relationship with cab / uber drivers for potential special rides. That said, I mostly use Uber for short trips, like going to and from restaurants etc; it's way cost effective.

[Oakie]

Thanks for the help brother. I'm staying at casa marina. Where is the closest public stand? What do they call it in their lingo?

It's just opposite the Texaco Station at the main Hwy turn off into Sosua. "Publico" stand.

The taxis parked across the street from your Casa Marina are strictly tourist traps. But the good news is Sosua is so small you can't really spend too much getting around, anyway.

Still, having a dedicated car is great value, especially if you want to get around to Puerto Plata and Caberete, and he'll always be there for you!

Try it for a day, see how it works for you guys.

[Sammytheman]

Might be worth your while to do what some regular visitors do. Check out the local publico stand, and make a deal for a dedicated driver. He'll be on call to take you anywhere, and pick you up at any time, for fraction of the cost of accumulated taxi fares and car rentals.

That is, if you don't mind riding in an old car.

[Oakie]

Hey fellas me and 3 friends will land at Puerto Plata tomorrow and are on the fence of whether to rent a car and split 4 ways or take uber and do the same. If rent then what rental agency do you recommend? Thanks.

Thank you, Mr. Gogo. Never heard of Indriver before. I will give it a trial next time.

[Cestme]

I concur. Uber in the Boca chica area can be a game. They do exactly as you say, and it gets worse after 4 pm. Sometimes me and the guys will catch Uber from Zona Colonial to Boca chica to get fish and drink. If we leave the beach about 4 pm we might get a fair Uber driver but after that and the price goes up. Indriver is far better IMO. The app is on the play store and easy to understand. You leave a bid and they accept or not. No credit card needed, you pay cash. If you aren't sure about the fare, go to the Uber app and find out the price. Then shoot your bid a little lower and increase it.

I'm sure Uber sees all the cancelled trips in the BC area but Uber hasn't done anything to stop it and have them honor the first price.

Thank you, Mr. Gogo. Never heard of Indriver before. I will give it a trial next time.

[Pinaypounder]

I have played and travelled mostly in SE Asia. Love the women there. Slim petite pretty and easy and when not easy low cost.

A business associate and I are looking to buy a Hotel in Central America or the Dominican.

I have been perusing Tagged using the meet me function to have a look at the women.

Yuck is my opinion.

80% of them are fat and very fat and simply not attractive.

My review is not in depth or comprehensive but YUCK.

Am I missing something? Are young 30 ish aged women available and easy to fuck? I can not and never have done fat women.

What Central American country has the best women?

I don't mean to offend simply asking.

PP.
