You wil pay everithingmore but expecially girls the half or a quarter than in DR and you will find stunners not the ugly pros of DR most of them are mothers that means ugly breasth and no flat abdomen but they ask you money as like they are Naomi Campbell

[QUOTE=Carrib;1237220]Is johnny walker cheap in Santo Domingo? I have been seeing pics of Johnny walker, even Blue label which retails from 180-200+ USD. Somehow I can't see the avg dominican paying 6000-7000 pesos for Blue.[/QUOTE]Nothing imported is any cheaper in the Dominican republic. Try Brughal 1888, or look for Barbancourt Estate Reserve for premium local liquor around $1200 pesos. Brughal Anejo is a really great quality everyday rum around $250 pesos. JW Blue is a grossly overpriced decent blended scotch as marketing creation whose most noted fan was that master of subtle tastes Richard Nixon.

[QUOTE=Marc Anthony;1246362].whose most noted fan was that master of subtle tastes Richard Nixon.[/QUOTE]LOL. Interesting piece of information and a soft jab, I presume in jest. What I do not understand is why one would go for blends when the single malt any day wins. But I digress.

By the way, does anyone know the local price of Bailey's in DR compared to buying it at US airports?

Thanks for all the infomation. Will be in Kenia end of March for 4 weeks. Stopover in Addis I love so much. Thanks for advice. Will look here for more infos about a quite place on the beach. Blackbeard sounds good. How much is staying there? Wil find easaly in google? Thanks again!

Regards

[QUOTE=Jaosousa; 1246047]Some guys like boca chica (beach town. 10 minutes from santo domingo airport). Supposedly lots of Italians in boca chica. Many guys like Sosua (beach town, ten minutes from puerto plata airport). Boca Chica and Sosua have freelancers, with whom you negotiate the price and those towns also have places that have set prices (massage houses or casa de citas in boca chica and Passions, CMP in Sosua).

Blackbeard Resort on the beach in Costambar, Puerto Plata (about 45 minutes from Puerto Plata Airport, POP) , has set prices for ST and LT, in a safe, secure environment.

Bavaro and Punta Cana has many all inclusive hotels and new condo and villa rentals on a nice beach. Chica prices tend to be high in bavaro and punta cana.

Casa de Campo is on the beach in la romana, expensive place to stay (hotel and villa rentals) , there is p4p in la romana. Bayahibe is a small beach town about 15 minutes la romana, that has a small amount of pros.

There are other beach towns that will probably have some small amount of pros.

The two beach-towns with the most pros would be Sosua and Boca Chica.[/QUOTE]

Costambar Beach, Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic.

There are plenty of dark skin women in Dom Rep who are not hard core and many of whom have excellent bodies. Dominican Republic is a relatively safe place, so don't be afraid to visit various beach towns. Internet social networking sites, hi5, badoo, tagged, facebook, that have many Dominican chicas, who you can get to know before you travel to the DR.

Can I manage on 100$US a day long term, like for 5 months?

Including; renting a small apartment, food, restaurant, travelling, for me and my girl / friend (nonpro).

In Argentina it was practical to have a private healthinsurance, the price was like $100US a month, do they have anything similar in the DR?

I know you can overstay your 30-day DR tourist visa and then pay a fine on exit (I've done it myself and know many others do it).

But, although never heard anyone having problem, theoretically it is illegal, no? I mean if police happens to see your passport (in case of any trouble) , they could use that to give you some hassle, arrest, fine, deport etc. Though I never, ever heard any stories, have you?

So I was thinking, can you get a longer stay (tourist) visa with permit to stay say 3 or 6 months, from their embassy? (BTW, I'm on UK pass in UK.)

Cheers,

I live here on about $2600 a month, support a house. 3 kids. 3 dogs, a novia, and still have some left over at the end of the month. This also included a few trysts outside of my home. On this kind of money, close to 120k pesos, you could live like a king, and be called by a novia, her king.

Cheers, [/QUOTE]It would be worth your time asking on a general dr forum like dr1 dotcom that has a lot of experienced expats. In general there is no legal problem, but your right to drive on your foreign license does expire after some period which could cause complications if you drive. I know people who have lived there for years just paying the fees on exit without any issues.

Cheers, [/QUOTE]There is a set list of charges for over stays, I'm sure I've seen it posted on this forum. With that said, I've stayed over many times and 1 never paid the charge and 2 never had a problem. If the cops stop you they don't ask for your passport (you shouldn't carry it with you anyway) , they ask for license, paperwork on the car, then their shakedown money.

After you clear security there will be line of counters where they check your passport to see when you arrived. If you are a frequent visitor and your passport is getting full, it might be a good idea to find your most recent entry stamp ahead of time as sometimes they point to an older one which could lead you to paying a higher fine.

Here is a list of the fines:

De 30 dias a 3 meses 800. 00 pesos.

De 3 meses a 9 meses 1, 000. 00.

De 9 meses a 1 año 2, 500. 00.

De 1 año a 1 año why 6 meses 4, 000. 00.

De 1 año why medio a 2 años 5, 000. 00.

De 2 años a 2 años why 6 meses 6, 500. 00

De 2 años why medio a 3 años 9, 000. 00

De 2 años a 5 años 14, 000. 00.

De 5 años en adelante 17, 000. 00

When you put your SIM card into your phone you will automatically have internet. However, as Gagoo explained to me, and I later found out on my own when it ripped into my ass, if you use the internet this way it will eat up your minutes before you can blink. Gagoo said there was a way to go online and subscribe to the internet through Claro, but I could not find how. I ended up going to the store in Boca Chica and the guy did it on the Claro computer. There are different plans you can get but you get more MB for your peso if you do the 1 day plan as you can see from the chart below (chalk it up to DR Math). The guy in the Boca Chica store said I would have to come back to the store to redo it each day. That was bullshit.

When I stopped in at a Claro store in Santiago to recharge my minutes the guy there taught me to add internet from my phone. And I shall pass this very valuable information along (remember it will subtract the amount of pesos you want for your internet plan from the credit you already have on your phone):

1. Dial *111# Send.

2. On the menu that comes up select "2 Servicios Opcionales" and Send.

3. Select "2 Blackberry Prepago" and Send. (It does not matter what type of phone you have."Blackberry" is pretty much the generic term for a smartphone in DR.

4. Select "1 Comprar paquete" and Send.

5. Select "1 Full" and Send.

6. Chose how many days you want. (As I said it is best to do 1.) And Send.

7. It will ask if you are sure that you want to buy your package. Select "1 Si" and Send.

8. You will now get a message saying that you have purchased "xyz" and you are ready to use the internet on your phone.

Plans:

200MB 1 day 50 pesos.

350MB 3 days 150 pesos.

700MB 7 days 325 pesos.

1.5GB 15 days 675 pesos.

3GB 30 days 1375 pesos.

5GB 60 days 2250 pesos

I usually use my atm card in PP and on each card I could get around 250 dollars a day. Last time I couldn't get but maybe 40 dollars out of the ATM for some reason and it was all in 100 peso bills. So my question if I go to the bank can I get money out? I have heard of people doing this but it doesn't seem possible if I don't have an account there. If so what do I need? And at what cost?

Thanks.

I use popalar Bank and you can get 10000 pesos which is close to 250 dollars. 5000 pesos is max at one time / 2 withdrawls per day.
