Sosua Reports

[John Clayton]

LOL. Really cool? Lively? You are surprised there are not more foreigners hanging out in the ghetto? Yeah. Ok. The people living there are not exactly there by choice.

Okay, my condo is pretty nice, even luxurious by the standard of LOS Charmicos, which means mostly: food in the fridge, clean sheets, clean towels, hot water, nice couches and -- the view. I've dated three different girls I've met on Tinder. Point is, it's pretty comfy here and they like to sit on the couch after the deed, charge their phones and hang out during which time they will speak their minds, regarding their kids, their mothers -- and their clients. These Tinder women are maybe a step above the typical Pedro Clisante sw'ers and mostly have foreign clients (one was married for two years to a 80 yo american who died, leaving her nothing).

For conversation, I've asked them all which is the worst client by nationality. Uniformly, their answer was black men from the US of A. All these girls are "black" by California standards (although they don't think they are). Anyhow, I was shocked by the uniformity and vehemence of their response. I mean, they expressed some pretty strong, bad, racist feelings. Principle complaints seem to be (and I'm summarizing but in no particular order): they're cheap, cheat or underpay, think they deserve something for free, cum in their face, cum in their hair (!), are rough, grab their head and hair (during a blowjob), sneak the condom off, keep their socks on (imagine!), smell like cigars, get angry and try not to pay if they can't cum, etc, etc. By far the worst, and weirdest from their POV, is trying to cum in their hair ("...and Why? Why would they want to do that. Why? Imagine! In my hair!)

What did I learn from this? 1) The girls spend a lot of time on their hair 2) If you want them to like you, don't cum in their hair.

What place did you rent the car from?

Avis. A Kia Something.

[Mr Enternational]

I rented a crappy car for $300/ week.

What place did you rent the car from?

[John Clayton]

It is about $250 US from Sosua to SDQ. So I would assume about the same going the other way. You can probably google it though.

Sorry, that question has been moot for the last two weeks. I rented a crappy car for $300/ week. I've given up on driving into / through Cabarete -- nothin' there, basically a wide spot in the road. It was a whole lot better 25 thirty years ago. Every time I drive the two miles to town, I regret it. Sosua is definitely better for groceries, dinner, girls etc.

[Norbert61]

I'm going to Cabarete next week mostly for kiting. I have a huge equipment bag, but before I pull the trigger on a car rental (has anyone taken a taxi / uber from SDQ to Sosua / Cabarete? (I don't really need a car, just like one).

Obviously, I'm not staying there. I'm mostly saying that 1) it's way different that my stately home in coastal California, and 2) if tourists / mongers are interested in a completely different and authentic experience (which, I suppose, most aren't) then they should check it out. Sosua, although 10 X better than Cabarete as a town, is still full full of burnt up, burnt out, overweight foreigners -- none of that in LOS Charamicos.

[Mr Enternational]

drive them to my rental condo in Cabarete, then return them to their homes in Los Charamicos, which is actually a really cool, night time, outside, lively town -- little kids dancing in the streets, that kind of thing. I guess I'm surprised I haven't seen more foreigners hanging out there. Nothing fake about it.

I'm actually in Cabarete, but I've been "dating" Tinder girls mostly from Sosua. I usually pick them up at some landmark like Playero Supermarket, drive them to my rental condo in Cabarete, then return them to their homes in Los Charamicos, which is actually a really cool, night time, outside, lively town -- little kids dancing in the streets, that kind of thing. I guess I'm surprised I haven't seen more foreigners hanging out there. Nothing fake about it. Once you get used to it, it's not impossible to navigate in a car, even with old man reflexes and vision.

(I've driven in many countries and, to repeat the obvious, I wouldn't rate Dominicans highly on the careful driving scale. Especially on the weekends, drunken people leaving the beach, weaving, hurling empties out the window. I tried to explain the english phrase, "drunk douchebag" to my date).

Like Cabarete, Charamicos is one of the many pleasant diversions from Sosua's downtown. It's home to a lot of the locals who work in the tourist business. It's a hodge podge of little houses and colmados, and a great place to hang out on a Sunday, with the locals and a cold beer, if you're tired of the hustle in Sosua.

My former GF has extended family there, and although she went to the States some 6 years ago, I still keep in touch. Matter of fact, my present GF has a good relationship with them too, so we get over there quite often.

Last year one of the expats here took 3 of us out in his old jeep for the day to show us some of his favorite "secret spots" outside Sosua. We started at the little bar down on Charamicos beach where the girl addresed me by name. No secrets in Sosua.

Then we took in some small towns, then up to a tranquilo spot that had a waterfall and pool full of fish. We swam (I waded) in the cold water, and a local guy came in and opened up a frig and a barbeque for a good lunch.

On the way back he said he would take us to his favorite local hang out spot for more cold beers. We were going back into Charamicos, and he was navigating his way all through the winding streets, all the way up to the cockfighting place and the little tienda next door.

Was he ever surprised when the locals, young and old folks alike, all came out to give me a hug.

Then when I got home, my Puerto Plata GF texted me, How was Charamocos?

No secrets in Sosua, LOL.

Only 10% in the DR are light skinned. 80% are African-mixed with kinky hair. 10% are blue-black, really dark. Colombian women have straight black hair, more narrow noses and are more European by heritage.

May I also add that I notice Colombian women in there overall physical physique are more on the Eurocentric side. However they make up for it with plastic surgery in the general population. Now they have the body and the look!

It's only when you get to areas in Colombia that has a higher percentage of Afro Colombians mixed in the population do you notice a higher correlation of natural "curves". Cali curves is a popular term used to describe the Colombians in the Cali region. Very close to the afro Colombian coast.

In the DR chicas having plastic surgery is only common in casas and Sosua where there's a demand in the market. Other than that many Dominican are content with their genetic physical bodies. But that hair is another thing.

I remember one time a Hispanic woman said in a joke: "my grandmother is Colombian and my mother is Puerto Rican. Due to my father being born and from Santo Domingo; all her childhood life her mother and grandmother had been trying to straighten the Dominican part out of her hair".

I would say that most of the darkest chicas in DR are haitians. Which can be found more in the North. From my recent trip in DR, 2 months ago, I would say they are much more light skinned chicas ('Colombian type', blancas / morenas) in SD and Santiago that anywhere else. But maybe I'm wrong, as I pay more attention to mulatas / dark ones.

From my experience Santiago is best for light skinned girls.

How common are light skinned chicas in DR? Planning my first ever trip out of the states and considering DR as an option, I'm not super into black girls, though not fully opposed either. Pics and vids def seem to show more afro-Latina, curious how easy it is to find a light skin dime in DR.

There used to be lots of light skinned girls coming to Sosua. I have been with many of them (have not been there last two years). Very rarely I have been with black girls. What I heard was whiter the skin higher the asking price. It was not like that before. I paid around 2500 pesos for all night. If I kept her as a GF for few days it would be 2000 per day plus expenses plus some shopping for clothes for her. I tend to keep one for a few days if company and sex is good. Last trip I met a Colombian looking white girl from Santiago. Her asking price was 3500 to start which I paid the first night but negotiated down for stay few days. She was a sweetheart in and out of bed.

They come in all shades, but this ain't Europe.
