Sosua Reports

[QUOTE=Xpartan;2737213]Well, not arguing about the typically ridiculous jewelers markups, but how fair is this example? There was a lot of labor that goes into designing and making this piece (unless it was a POS necklace, in which case I don't think you'd be interested, LOL).[/QUOTE]Not at all. Machines make the stuff. Think of a fake necklace. How much does it cost for the designing and making? You don't see $1000 for the designing and making of fake jewelry. You could buy one of the same design for probably $10. The only difference is the material it is made with.

I was walking back from dropping my laundry off and I saw a business that accepts [B]BTC, ETH[/B] and other crypto payments. As Spock would say: "Fascinating".

Here is a post made on a site with a completely different focus about Sosua Beach:

[I]"Although I only vacation in the DR and am not an expat living there, There is one thing I do know. If the canopy of trees and the stretch of shops, restaurants and bars disappears from sosua beach, I will not be returning as a tourist. I've been to quite a few places in the Caribbean and there is no place like that beach. I go there almost every day in the morning and pass my entire day there. My friends who typically accompany me feel the same, that there is no other beach (at least that we've seen) like it. I don't want to go to a beach where there's just sand and water and lounge chairs. I can get that anywhere in the world. Just my 2 cents."[/I]

Sometimes reading different perspectives help.

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2737402]Not at all. Machines make the stuff. [/QUOTE]Ah-oh! Probably 70% of the jewellery in the world is made by machines today. But do not make a blanket statement like that. Some of the finest artisans live in Italy (Check Vicenza. Oro, a trade show). There is another big hub in Italy, called Arezzo, in Tuscany. These are places where gold has been worked for generationS, since renaissance time! Tell them that all gold is made by machines. Heck, even in Bangkok, I bought gold that is enameled beautifully in various colors, from emerald green to ruby red and then put together to make a "parure". What you are speaking of is a suit made in India or Korea by a tailor, even custom made vis a vis a suit made by Savile Row or by Ermenegildo Zegna!

And the price will drop when a new design comes out or when there are no buyers. Everything boils down to supply and demand. You can walk into a car dealership today and they will try to sell you a car for 5000 over MSRP. Doesn't matter if you show them the cost of the manufacturer they just know there a next person willing to buy the same car at 5000 over MSRP.

This forum should focus on helping people negotiate and get them a price not too far to the lowest price a girl is willing to take. What's the point of telling the ask price if we don't share the final price. Word of mouth of the ask price ends up telling newbies this is the price we pay.

If a girl ask price is 5000 pesos, but will take 2500 pesos, then its alright to pay her anywhere between 2500 and 3000 pesos. At least the person negotiated. Some expat will probably get her for way less because he got time on his side.

A standing ovation to you my man!

Here is an example of a simple street negotiation: Chica asks if I am interested in her. I tell her I am. She asks why don't you take me? I say it is because I have things that I like that are special and not all girls do them. She asks me what it that I like? I tell her. She tells me ok I will do that for 3000 DOP. I tell her I will give her 2000 DOP plus a 500 DOP bonus if she actually does what it is I like once we are in the room. She agrees.

That particular chica performed at an exception level in the room and she earned her bonus. Now because of the intangibles she brings to the table and her treatment of me I give her 3000 DOP without negotiation when I see her.

Now we got people posting up in here on completely unrelated topics and those airing out their personal vendettas. [B]You, Tempoecorto, Grownman, Sammon, Coolie High, IronQuinn, Tochka, Husker Dude, OldKool, and SlangTeng[/B] have ALL been posting up useable intelligence about operating in THE NEW SUE. Those are just the reports I have read in the last 4 pages of the [U]Sosua Reports forum[/U].

There have been many other excellent reports to read as you continue to scroll through earlier posts. The real ISG brothers trying to help out their fellow brothers and sharing information about having sex with girls in THE NEW SUE. I thank you. And keep the excellent reports and intelligence flowing on THE NEW SUE. This is the one that exists right now. The one that I am in right now. Anyone who does not find THE NEW SUE to be compatible with the travel desires that they seek. I remind them that there is an entire country to explore (easier to do that with Spanish speaking language skills) or other countries in the world. You can find out lots of information about them by just reading other parts of ISG.

My name is Subcmdr. You know where I live. And you know who I am. [B]LOL![/B].

[QUOTE=Rccola10;2731045]I appreciate everybody's advice about Sosua. I have to give back something. Wrote up this report at POP since my flight was delayed three times. First time writing.

Day 1: Met this chica on Tinder. Blonde, latina, big titties. I needed some way to break in my new apartment with a piece of ass. The laugh I got from the security guard noting how quickly I brought a new date after check in was awkward. Through her broken English I had a chance to share a beer and kind of "settle in" before dropping my trousers. She was inpatient and just whipped out her titties when I started the spotify playlist of some dirty rap. A nice lap dance proceeded but then the fucking negotiations started and my dick almost went limp. I was forced to haggle down from $100 to $70 for everything covered. Given her curves, I went for the mission position with my small penis. I lost myself in this void and quickly became turned off from the loud screaming and "leche, leche" within seconds of penetration. I don't know why but the combination of haggling, lack of GFE, and hurry up mode kills my vibe and I cum too quickly in embarrassment. My body has a hard time plowing through the hustling. This one walked away a victor and I hugged my sad dick.

Overall, I got what I wanted from the DR. My inability to speak Spanish really sucked on this trip but the dating apps kept options open.

I think I'm going to be a Gringo and stay in Cabarete next time. Trying to have a conversation with other people in broken Spanglish is just not fun over multiple days. As I sit in Margots or other restaurants, I cringe seeing middle age white guys try and pretend they're on a date with a hooker. No fun banter with the language barrier. Just fucking delusion.

Also, Cabarate has some smoking hot single Americans / Europeans. My jaw dropped on two lonely Spainard girls in front of Mojitos before ending the night with bday girl.[/QUOTE]Looks like you met the same chica I met when I was there in the beginning of July LOL. Sounds exactly like her. Funny, I barely remember how much time I spent with her, but I know I ignored the leches. English speakers are out there. I met two after a month of pregaming. Guess it's true when they say Sosua isn't built for everyone.

Unfortunately, I only get one week off in total for my vacations. Working in healthcare is too demanding. Therefore, meeting girls quickly / efficiently without speaking Spanish well is annoying. Also just hanging out with people at the bar or chilling sucks when the communication is weak. I was fortunate that one of these chicas liked me enough to take me out and banter over my phone's translator haha.

Alright guys so here is my day 1 Sosua newbie report. Been waiting for this day for a long time and I finally get to post a report to the forum instead of just asking questions. Appreciate those who helped.

Sept 1: Check in at Casa Valeria like 4 am (landed 2 am in Santiago and had the hotel pick me up there).

Sept 2: Running on low sleep but there was no way in hell I wasn't going to explore and make the most of the day. So I woke up, went by the golf cart rental place at Plaza Commercial and the guy tried to charge me $80 for one day or $120 for 4 days. I didn't need the golf cart for 4 days so I told him I would come back later. Hoofed it back to Casa Valeria to bring my money down to exchange (golf cart guy also exchanged but his rate was 51.50 - seems to be the same rate as the guys sitting outside el conde). Walked about 1. 1 km in the hot sun up to super pola / caribe express to set myself up. (Super pola will accept American credit / debit cards for a 5% upcharge. I went with that to save my cash for chicas). That trek back was hell with that 2 gallon jug of water but also stopped by Surf liquors and grabbed a bottle of Brugal extra viejo for about $9-10 and they broke down at 24 pack of presidente into a 12-pack and charged me half the total (pretty cool they customized the price / pack for me but it also worked out to be about $14). Sweaty as all hell so showered up real quick to hit the beach to see what that was about. There was a smattering of chicas all throughout the town. Stopped by the pharmacy that SubCmdr recommended and grabbed a 4 pack of cialis (was hassled pretty heavily by a street dude trying to sell me Mambo and Viagra but I didn't want to pick up street pills). The beach had a chicas but I wouldn't say it was packed. I didn't see anything good on my walk in so stopped at a bar to have a meal and a stiff drink. Was walking back up the beach to grab a coconut and head back to my room because the heat was no joke when two chicas stopped me and propositioned me for HH. Not the best price but I was interested. $80 for each, 2 leches, chupas sin condon. Casa Valeria has a 1 guest policy so I had to get a room at Bar Central for 1000 pesos. They both did their job really well. No rushing (the second one kinda tapped out but I don't blame her because that 2nd nut was really hard to get in that time frame but we got there lmao). My favorite part was hitting the one with the fatter ass in doggy while the other massaged me with the oil I brought. By this time a chica that I had lined up for Sunday (from pregaming tinder) was trying to see me. She wanted to suck my dick. I was already starting to get sore but I said screw it, come through. She had a friend with her but I wasn't interested. I told her I was hungry so they brought my by this little taco spot that had 100 peso tacos. I gave the friend a beer to wait for us out front at Casa Valeria. 3000 pesos +250 peso propina for my chica and sheesh she know her way around a dick. SLOPPY TOPPY. Saw some dudes hanging around by the pool at Casa valeria and chopped it up with them for a few. Some younger cats from Atlanta who had been here once before. But they'd never been to bailee's. So I said lets go boys. We walked on down to bailee's grabbing numbers left and right. The talent at bailee's was on point. I had the fried chicken which was good but the rice and beans weren't hot (never would have thought a Caribbean place would mess up rice and beans). Later that night went to meet up with this dude I had met at the bar. He said he was at kings so I headed over and grabbed a couple drinks. A couple more numbers. Off to blue Ice. I didn't like how smoky it was in there and didn't really like the set up of the women who worked there who tried to hang out with you. They were pretty but it was too loud to talk to my buddy in english let alone my beginner level Spanish. I head back to my room to pound some waters before the casino. The casino was awesome. Women everywhere. This chica with a huge ass I want to see on this trip told me she was going down there but I didn't run into her. I texted her probably an hour after she said she was going to be there but I grew impatient as it was getting late. A chica with nice tits and fat ass happened to walk in so by the time my girl got back to me I was already off back to casa valeria on a motoconcho. Annoying ass dude wanted a tip because it was his birthday so I gave him 50 pesos (on top of the 100) LOL he was mad but I was off to my room w my chica. She wanted $100 for an hour but I got her to agree to $180 TLN why chupas sin condom. Not the best price but 3 nuts for $180 (I said screw it).

About to head out here in a few to the beach to get some more numbers with my new buddies from Atlanta. Have some chicas from tinder hitting me up. So I have 2 already locked in for the day. I am SORE but I didn't come all this way to sit on the bench lmao. Going to go slower on the drinking today. Will report back.

P.S- This place is lovely. Going at the weekend warrior pace is a lot. I could see myself slowing down over the next couple days here. Will be in town until Wednesday when I head to Santiago to see 2 before my flight.

The marathon continues:

Day started with 2 leches with the thick black chick I picked up at the casino Friday night. Had some breakfast at my hotel, took a dip in the pool before hitting the beach. Went by flip flops for some wings (the lemon pepper were delicious as were the fries). The owner is really cool guy. They are having a 3 day long happy hour with beers and drinks (most drinks are 150 pesos). Got a couple numbers on the beach from some beautiful chicas. One was good with 3000+500 propina but then she said that was just for head w. O. Condom, if I wanted to have sex I would need to give her more. There other was a beautiful chick w a fat ass name Zulainy (she wants 4500 condom w everything). I ended up getting flaked on by the chocolate chick I told to meet me at the beach so I contacted this young chick Lia that I had meet at rumbas the night before. She was cool w 3000 (no propina) for everything. Boy am I glad I got flaked on. This girl barely has a gag reflex and has a mean deepthroat game. I will likely have to repeat just based on talent alone (SHEEESH). She gagged a few times and I thought she was going to throw up ones but she this chick goes after it like she has no regard for her own life lmao. I relax a little by the bar at the hotel and chop it up wiht some of the fellas. Next in was this chick with a great fake ass I met at Bailees Friday. She wanted to bring friends, I'm only allowed to have one over so I ask some of the fellas if they interested. They didn't commit so I told her bring them but I don't know if these guys actually want to go with her friends. These were all of the women from that youtuber Giamo's videos (since my buddies didn't want the others, I will take them all one at a time if they will go for the same arrangement I had with mine). 4000 pesos w uncovered oral. The movement on this ass was crazy. I had two lined up for later that night but went to grab some food at Rumbas with the guys at the hotel. The chick I had told to meet me at the beach texts me asks where I'm at. I say rumbas and she says she saw me leave the bathroom. She wanted to know if my friends were interested in her friends. I said I don't know but you can bring them by my table and see if any will bite. She then asks what I'm doing tonight so I tell her nothing because I'm tired and that I will just go back to the hotel tonight. She asks if I wanted company and I tell her I did earlier but I'm good tonight and I will see her tomorrow. It was this beautiful chick out of Santiago (Marcel) I met that night. And a few others I'm interested in. I told Marcel I would see here at noon (today Sunday) but I end up texting her and telling her to come tonight because she was going for the same price as the chick with the fake ass I was having come over but she gave head wihtout condom. Called the audible LOL. It was worth it. This chick had a really wet pussy and gave great head 4000 pesos + big propina of 1000 pesos. She seemed down to have sex uncovered as well but I opted for condom for sex (she went from head to gettin in position in doggy and pushing that fat ass and pussy towards me but I got up and got condom).

Having some lower back pain today haha maybe it's the 4 chicas a day pace. Saw a bunch of massage places that are asking 1000 pesos for an hour. I want to go with one but no clue which will give an actual good massage. These ladies don't exactly look like licensed massage therapists. I may see Zulainy or another before what I have lined up for tonight. Tonight I am seeing a chick from day 1 that gave some really good sloppy head with the chick Pame that was supposed to meet me at the beach. Will likely get a short term rental at either Bar central or Dulce Secreto. Will be with Pame 6 pm. Morning for $150 and the sloppy toppy chica out of POP will join us at 9 pm-morning (7000 pesos). May save my energy for them as it's going to be 4 or 5 leches with them tonight. As I'm writing this, a chica that wasn't to suck my balls and is down for CIM is writing me. She wants 3500 + 500 pesos (for moto) but since I really do have a hell of a night / day lined up I think I will text her that she can come for 3500 (Stefany).

One of the dude's staying here got the hot bartender from Bailee's for $200 USD. Another dude staying here got quoted $500 from her.
