Looking into possiblilty of a long stay in Sosua but keeping costs relatively low
Hey guys, I was daydreaming at work this afternoon about possibly taking a trip for a month or more down in the DR, most likely Sosua. I'd have to do it cheap, as I'm not a rich man, but I do have some resources.
I was thinking renting by the month, I could get a get a decent place. Would it be possible to find a place for a month at a time with A / C, TV, bed, kitchenette for $500 or less a month? It wouldn't have to be right by the strip or anything, but hopefully within walking distance.
I was thinking another $400 / month for food and incidentals, provided I cooked in most nights.
Then there are the chicas. I was thinking that if I cut back dramatically on quantity and a bit on quality from what I'd do on a shorter trip AND sharpen my negotiating skills: $500 / month. I'd probably look for a novia, if possible. Or at least a few chicas that work cheap for a "steady paycheck." Is that practical?
What do you guys think? I was going for roughly $1, 500 for a month, not including the plane ticket. Is that enough for what I'm looking for? Would there be a better city in the DR for this kind of thing?
This is just theoretical, so no need to burn up a lot of brain cells. If you have any thoughts, though, I'd love to hear them. I could string together a solid month to 5 weeks in the fall, so I'm just spit balling possibilities until then.
Thanks,
Henley
