    I love how you speak Spanish. It is sounds musical and beautiful, your pronunciation.

      Thank you that's very kind of you. I wish I was further along with my Spanish. But it's so hard here when everyone wants to practice their English.

    I know all about what you are saying. You right, get the VIN # and do your research. I am saving money to purchase one hopefully soon, because as an American, I live here part time in the Samana area and in need of a vehicle badly. I will finance though because I want to establish some kind of credit here in the Dominican Republic. But boy, the vehicles here are over priced....

    Thank you so much for your channel. I've learned so much from you and your fellow hosts. My fiance and I are hoping to move to DR BEFORE retirement. I'm trying to figure out how to continue working professionally from there... My fiance is a native of Santo Domingo but has lived/worked in the US since childhood. Like you, I intend to become a resident. We are visiting DR together with his family in August and will be in Jarabacoa and Las Terrenas and I'm beyond excited. There's so much more to say about our plans, but I just wanted to drop in and say we appreciate you! Peace and all the best... from AUSTIN, TEXAS! :)

    Hi, I’m not being disrespectful and I love the fact you are trying to learn Spanish but you need to pronounce the letters in Spanish or else it sound awful. Sorry for being blunt but we say what we mean, AEIOU does not pronounce the same in English, you need to master the vowels first. when you said San Pedro de Macoors, very wrong. It should pronounce more like San Pedro De Ma co east. Love your show.
