Sosua Reports

[BigTimeFun]

Is The Topical Gel for ED available in the DR? If anyone knows pass the info on.

[Charles Pooter]

Nice to hear from you, Charles. Despite our past disagreements and colorful banter, I wouldn't wish death on you, or anyone else for that matter. I was just genuinely concerned about your status, as you had an almost daily presence in the Sosua forum in the past, but lately contributions that are few and far between. Hope you get your health issues remedied soon and that we see you more often in this forum.

Thanks for your kind remarks. My health issues are not resolvable and derive from old age. One of them is failing memory. I have absolutely no recollection of any disagreements with you, though I take your word for it. I hope I did not cause too much offence.

Hi, Quagmire. If you are hoping he has snuffed it, I am sorry to disappoint you. The miserable old git is still hanging on, with increasing health problems.

Latest is an umbilical hernia. He had some fun last week allowing a waitress on the Malecon to feel it through his shirt. He told her he was growing a second penis because he was too virile to have only one. She believed him.

None of his health problems are remotely dangerous (as yet) but they do cramp his style romantically. As does the falling value of the pound sterling resulting from the Brexit fiasco. So he confines himself to a couple of old flames who service his needs out of pity (for a pittance). Both haitianas, of course.

He does not post on here much because he has nothing to say, not that that has stopped him in the past. Spending a lot of time catching up on movies he missed out on during that large part of his life wasted working. Also working on a novel based on his time on this island, though whether he will be spared to complete it is another matter. Writing fiction hurts his brain so it is slow progress.

Not sure why Quagmire in particular is enquiring. Does Pooter owe him money?

Does anyone know the status of Charles Pooter? He posted in various Dominican Republic forums here on ISG almost everyday in the past, but his posts now are becoming increasingly infrequent, with his last post on ISG on August 8. No, I'm not trying to be all up in his business, I'm just genuinely concerned about someone who had a near-daily presence on ISG in the past.

Here are some of your observations from previous trips. Inquiring minds would like to know why you spend your money and time visiting a place over and over again you appear to dislike so much??

Maybe he is the personification of insanity. Or he is one of those hip hop DJs remixing cutting and stratching his vacation to the same situation. Suga Knight museum comparison is an interesting simile and observation. SK is an over 300 pounds Cigar smoking intimidating thugged out African American.

His posts goes back to 2013. Wow RonnyRon you did some homework. I would like to hear his honest response.

[Adinga]

Ron,

I use the DR when traveling back and forth from Cuba.

There's no need to copy and paste my old posts. I changed my mind and returned to see the Sosua scene.

I'll be more than happy to answer your questions regarding my trip and observations.

[Oakie]

I just returned from a 5 day stay in Sosua...............
I probably would not return.

Thank for the report.

Sosua has high and low tourist seasons. August is in the middle of the low season, when it is hot, prices go down, and even some restaurants close up.

If you have sampled Sosua from November to April, there's a different vibe in the air, and you might have a different experience.

Nonetheless, there are hard core aficionados, who love it year round, and those are the ones that come to party. Some actually prefer Haitianas. There's enough 7's and above to keep them happy!

The regular vistors and Europeans and Canadians like me who stick through summer, tend to be wifed or GF'd up, and don't bother with the strip.

If you've tried it in both seasons, and found it wanting, it probably is not the place for you, and time to move on.

Old Kool said that Sosua changes from day to day. Maybe Adinga thought that it would change for the better each time he went back, but instead he noticed it changing for the worse until it was finally unacceptable to him.

I was simply trying to post some of my observations while they were fresh in my mind.

My evenings were spent on the strip partying in the clubs. I'm not intimidated in any way.

IMHO Sosua is changing. I returned 3 weeks ago.

Its no longer point and click P4P and if some people feel it is then its hardcore P4P.

The strip has been reduced to a 200 foot area which has about 6 bars where the girls hang out plus the cops are getting more aggressive.

Its almost exactly what Castro did 14 years ago when police began arresting the working girls on the street which then forced them into the high end discos where prices increased dramatically.

The demographics are also changing as many of the old school Canadians and Germans are leaving. Its now mostly African Americans.

Just returned from Sosua 2 weeks ago and I must say that the place is a bit hard core.

Some observations:

* Most girls were in the 5 -7 range as far as looks are concerned.

* Many of the girls are Haitian and aggressive.

* Streets are overcrowded with cars and motor conchos at night. Its too loud to enjoy a walk down Pedro Casante after 10 pm.

* Police cars begin patrolling the streets at 9 pm.

* Beach is mellow and not over crowded.

* Currency rate was $1 = 44 pesos.

* Good food is available at reasonable prices.

* Most of the tourists were Italians, Canadians, Afro Americans and Germans.

* Not much to see in Sosua after 3 days -.

I just returned home after 5 days in Sosua.

A few observations.

1] It appears that the Gov is cleaning up the streets and directing prostitution into the clubs like Castro did with Havana.

2] There is a much more visible police presence on the streets than last year.

3] Many of the chicas are using cocaine which often leads to unpredictable behavior and mood swings. I had to report 2 girls to security at New Garden Hotel.

4] Don't go near the tap water- had a serious case of diarrhea all 5 days.5) Always negotiate price and conduct a interview before going back to Hotel. GFE in Sosua is hard to come by and most of the girls are pros.

6] More of the Rapper want to bees from the US now coming to Sosua. These guys just hang at the pool all day long drinking the Hennessy, smoking blunts, blasting the hip hop and showing no respect to the locals.

Hope this helps.

I just returned from a 5 day vacation to Sosua and wasn't impressed at all.

For mongers the Sosua sex scene basically consists of 3 blocks with 5 large outdoor bars. The strip has about 200 girls which are looking to session with as many tourists per day as possible.

Most of the girls have kids and are alittle overweight. It gets boring real fast seeing the same girls every night on the strip. There is no reason to spend more than 1 week in Sosua. It gets old real fast.

I felt like a sex tourist in Sosua. There are no families vacationing there only guys.

All good points. Maybe give it a thought of staying in a different property next time. Getting a seven for two thousand is not a bad deal at all. So, if an upgrade to an eight costs in excess of five thousand, will you be interested? Triple your costs and you can get nice five days in Rio.

Sosua changes from day to day. During the week you will find the full time puntas. These girls are more hard core and can be a bit bit dangerous for newbies, The weekends get the more attractive girls who charge more. These girls tend to be in Classicos looking for the weekend ballers. I try to find girls who have not been on the strip very long. I do not need 9's or 10's for my sexual conquest. I want girls who satisfy my needs. If you are intimadated by black guys partying then the Sosua strip will be a turn off. I enjoy the party attitude but not the hip hop mentality but I do not let that hinder my good time. The key to having a good time for me is finding good places to eat and socialize. I know a half dozen expats who I enjoy chatting with. The key for the ladies is communication. I know a good number of ladies who can give me a good time if I need them. The new girl search is the wild card. Finding new talent is always a crap shoot. I have been doing this a while and I still pull a lemon every now and then. Sosua has it plus and minuses but is still one of my favorite places on earth. I plan to be there next week balls to the wall.

S.

I just returned from a 5 day stay in Sosua.

A lot of these girls are beat up from heavy drinking, late nights and child bearing. Its hard to find quality here as most girls are in 4 -7 range.

I was paying between 2000 - 2200 Dominican pesos for higher end. The Dominican Peso / Dollar was 49.50 but don't be mislead as prices are rising.

Sosua is now mostly Afro American tourists with the Germans and Canadians slowly dissappearing from the scene.

Pedro Clisante looks like the Suge Knight wax museum at night.

Stayed at The New Garden. Lorenzo now posts signs in the lobby stating drug use and loud music will NOT be tolerated.

The place also has a lot of roaches and many disrespectful clients who have loud arguments with the girls over money.

I probably would not return.

The hookers under the guise of massage thing is going on in several countries now, especially on chat apps. I will cut to the chase and say that I do not want a massage, only sex. Don't be shy. That always separates the wheat from the chaff. Like you said, just need to ask. If it is a legit massage they will say no sex, only massage. Pic from one of my legit massage parlors in Thailand.

Agree! Just ask! I've had sex at Belkys on a few occasions.
