Santiago

[Kabul Guy]

Hotel Masacre in Dajabon (truly nice historic name to an hotel). Keep in mind the long bus ride is very tiresome.

Any hope of any action in Dajabon? I could take the bus back there in the evening and then cross the border as soon as it opens. Otherwise bus leaves Sandiago 9 am arriving 1130.

and if you don't speak Spanish, it will hardly matter if they are articulate and cultured or not or whether they read Cervantes in bed.

Cervantes! You killing me. Jajaja!

I will be arriving in Santiago on 24 Dec about noon and will be there until the 26 when I leave to Puerto Plata to meet family, no chance of any mongering then.

Will there be much action Christmas Eve and Christmas day or will all the women be with family?

I have booked into the Hotel Planito. Can anyone tell me if there is any action there or recommend a better place?

I love having two women, can anyone recommend a favorite pair?

I get the impression that long time asking rates are somewhere around $US 200 for top end women. Is this correct? Would the Christmas time be a premium price or would the lack of clients mean a lower price?

Where would I find some high-end women? I have read through a lot of posts but any places I can find on the map are a ways from my hotel. I was not planning on getting a car and I don't speak a word of Spanish. This is my first time to the DR and I don't know my way around at all.

My preference would be to have them come to me at the hotel but I hate to order delivery sight unseen. Too many fakes online. Can anyone recommend any online ladies or agencies that are reliable?

High end women sounds like an oxymoron. You can find expensive hookers anywhere you like. If they ask for $100 just offer them $200 and they will be high end. There certainly are some educated and beautiful female students who moonlight as hookers, but it will be very hard for you to find them, especially if you don't speak Spanish, and if you don't speak Spanish, it will hardly matter if they are articulate and cultured or not or whether they read Cervantes in bed.

Since you don't speak Spanish, but you work in Haiti, you might consider looking for Haitian women in the DR, of whom there are many. Even knowing a small amount of Haitian Kreyol, which presumably you do, will be a huge help in striking up a conversation and getting things off on the right foot.

I work in Haiti but want to come to Santiago DR to play. I work in Cap Haitian, Haiti and I can get to the border at Dajobon on a Saturday around 3 or 4 PM and want to go to Santiago but be back at the border as early as possible on Monday, say 9 AM or so.

I have asked around but can only get a quote of around US $300 each way for a car and driver.

I would take a local bus but cannot find any information on where to go and where to meet them at either end or any information on the schedule.

I have in the past taken the Caribe Tour bus from Cap Haitian but it leaves too early on Saturday and gets back too late on Monday to be very useful for me.

Can anyone help with some transportation ideas? Does anyone know of a reliable local who would be able to meet me at the border and get me back in time? My budget for this excursion is RD $5. 000 to 7,000 each way. Once it gets more than that then flying through Port au Prince and going somewhere else becomes a more economical option for a short fun holiday. I am open to any idea except a motorcycle for the trip.

It is easy to find the local terminus for guaguas in Dajabon, it is within walking distance of the bridge to Haiti, but you can ask anyone. They seem to leave pretty frequently, as soon as a bus fills up, then it departs. For the return journey you might need to arrive in Dajabon in the evening and stay at one of the hotels there, or you may be able to get a very early morning bus from Santiago to Djabon and get there in time. I stayed in one near the center, but I forget what it is called. It was quite nice. There is a bus station (parada) for Djabon buses in Santiago. Again you will need to ask for the exact location. The bus takes about 2 to 2 1/2 hours to Santiago and the fare is cheap, I forget how much although it is actually only a few months since I last made that trip. I went on the local guagua express, but I think there are several bus services on that route. Those buses are subject to several spot checks by military and customs officials looking for undocumented Haitians, so they don't stop along the way or are not allowed to. The first stop may in fact be Navarete.

I am thinking about going to the Dominican republic in 2017. Just wanted to ask is it better going mid may (I heard its rainy season) or before may like April. My job doesn't really let me travel that much.

[KainNYC]

Going to Santiago / Sosua in January, looking for some fellow mongers to hang out with exchange stories, advice etc.

Thanks.

I have read somewhere some positive posts of the car wash at Plaza Gomez Diaz opposite Extacy Sports Bar. According Google they are 4,4 km (3 American distance units) from your hotel. I don't know if they are still open, but I suppose they are.

Colonia is south of the city on the way to airport. Heading south from STI it will be on the left. The car wash part is set back from the highway via a long driveway on the left hand side of the building. You need to look closely for the signs but a taxi driver half way familiar with STI should know the spot.

Just checked google maps and there is a listing for it. I have not been there in a few years so can not vouch for if the map location is correct but it looks like it is. South of penetration. There is another place further north on other side of autopista but the name escapes me now.

[Nordico]

Is the name La Colonia Car wash? I can't find anything on it. I'll be staying in the Hodelpa Garden Court near the airport are there any places close by?

Can Google map it by that name. I live here and have not visited. Locals I've spoken to indicate it's a jumping place and just east on the Autopista fm Imperial Aparta Hotel. A prefered meeting place since it is a little bit out of town and away from prying eyes.

I tried to set up an off-duty "outcall" arrangement with one of the girls whose WhatsApp number I had. She responded well, but our convo game me the impression she would just not leave unless there was an exit fee paid at the bar.

How was the room at the Matum? Reports seem to vary. Good report!

Reminds me of an old European castle. Big, high ceiling, dimly lit, ceramic floor. You might be able to yodel in it.
