I have yet to see a ninja produce an image of an attractive DR woman. Either Black men have horrible taste (you see it everywhere) or are half blind. I don't understand how BM gets women far below what even average White men get in these countries. Don't make the excuse that White men are preferred, it's a reality but that doesn't mean you should settle for less and most Black men ARE!
You know this series got dudes in their feelings, Zoe!! Keep speaking the truth. Great content. Fellas, we have to take control back and make people appreciate us and our $$$. That's what Zoe is saying 👏🏽
Creep cam footage uploaded to RUclips ruined Sosua. I first went in 05 and it was utterly amazing, literally rivaling the scene in Rio or Meddy. Easily 50 to 1 on the weekends. But creep camming scared em off. All that's left for the most part are dusty desperado 5's. The baddies understandably don't want their families and kids seeing them on the h*e stroll all over the internet. That s*** is permanent.
You bring up some very good and significant points. I go to the Dominican Republic on average of six months. I am actively engaged in buying a house 2 hours away from Santo Domingo. I immerse myself in the city and culture. I easily blend in. I don't go to the obvious typical tourist areas frequented, by the Westerners. Because, if I wanted to be around that vibe, I might as well stay in the U.S.
My biggest, biggest complaint about DR....I am personally not a fan of BBLs at all. The last time I went in 2022, I spent so much time just looking for a natural body. Done and dusted 💯
Yikes! I honestly expected better from the DR (but I believe you based on the videos I'm seeing on RUclips). They used to have some of the baddest natural chicks in this hemisphere. But I despise the fake t*t craze and the BBL craze is almost as bad. Guess I gotta put DR lower on my list then. Sad, because when I last went (over 15 years ago) I didn't know hardly ANY Spanish. My Spanish is better than solid now, so my experience would've been so much better. Smh
DR is not overran but Sosua and Puerto Plata are. I agree as a younger traveler Costa Rica has been a great networking spot for me it’s close in proximity. To me it’s not that expensive but it all depends on what you travel for
Awesome content Playa. I recently lived in Santiago and Santo Domingo for 3 years and my entire time living there i never went to Porta Plata ( Sosua). Way too much begging and fuckery.
Regardless of these places being played out. It must be said that it's a beautiful thing to see so many men, especially black men who want to see the world and have their finances in the right place that allows them to travel. So well done fellas
Been to the DR more than 10 times and only been to Sosua one night cuz I was tired of driving, yea it was played then lol. Never been to Punta Cana for anything more than a flight. Always had the most fun in the capital Bonao Azua and a couple other spots. I got other spots on the list and been other places but I'ma always hit it.
Similar experience here, I have been to DR dozens of times and never set foot in Sosua. Santo Domingo and the south coast in general is just such a great vibe
Yea that’s why he say sosua . It’s played . If you move around to others spots in DR , know Spanish , & know locals you can enjoy but just sosua Yeaa it’s played … Hmm nah unless you want that energy
Cosign wholeheartedly. So many option of cities to visit in these countries to check out. Also there are neighboring countries that can the same or even more. Use your passport more effectively and live life.
I can appreciate this. I was going to D.R. Santo Dm a lot. I switched it up and went to Panama City Panama and loved it now I’m ready to go to some more different places.
@damatricrayton - Right. I was wondering too. The cost in Panama is also the real turn off to that country. I wonder how much cheaper it is than Costa Rica.
@ the ladys there are great. Some of the prettiest women I’ve seen. I can understand their Spanish a little more than the DR women. The working girls can be a little pricey, but there are also many professional women that just want to date. I’d definitely give it a try. I love the Dominican Republic, but Panama is a good break from it.
@@tomslick08 Panama City is a little pricey because they use the US dollar so whatever you spend in the US you will spend in Panama. But the Airbnb’s are less expensive than the US.
@@jayrose79 I'll let you in on a secret. once you leave the touristy/center city areas of Panama City prices for everything are pretty much on par with anywhere else in Latin America.
12 year Sosua Vet, yup a lot of changes, im retired out of the hobby just with a haitian girl friend now. You got to earn your sosua stripes ! Also get off the main strip !
I haven’t been back in the DR since 2008. I had an incredible time there in Punta Cana, S. Domingo and Santiago. However I have heard RUclipsrs ruined a lot of things with the creeper cam business. I also heard that too many dudes are going there for obvious reasons and over doing it. Never been to Sousa, too much tourist.
@@passportnuke Everytime I think of going someplace else I end up back in the Sue, im scarry and done got comfortable here.... I was thinking CTG but Zoe say its played out so maybe Costa Rica, I hate the long flights too so..... Viva Dominica..... LOL Respect
And FYI No one choosing PC. Its all s fake youtube Video. We just did 11million visitors in 2024. Sosua gon be fine as well as DR but you are an A1 Traveler so your views are bias. You step on soil most would never
@INTERNATIONALZOE Im actually new to your channel and I just watched quite a bit of your videos and respect what you do. You drop a lot of useful knowledge. Appreciate you. Respect.
Santo Domingo is the best location for anyone going to the DR. Lots of good restaurants, nightlife and thousands on top of thousands of women there. It is a big city and has everything anyone could want.
He made a video, part two, about the most overexposed travel destinations, and to some extent, he’s partly responsible for it. He visits these countries, along with other RUclipsrs, and showcases how cheap or expensive they are, how beautiful the women are, and even does livestreams with attractive locals. In one video, he’s on a boat with two women, giving viewers the impression that they can replicate the same experience if they travel there. The problem is, every time they suggest a “new” destination, it becomes overrun with tourists chasing the same experience. Eventually, there will be no undiscovered, safe places left to visit. Many content creators are just making these videos for views and money, without considering the long-term effects on these locations. Travel content is reaching a point of saturation, and every new “hidden gem” will inevitably get spoiled. The better approach would be to avoid showcasing these places in such detail. Instead, creators could focus on showing the landscapes and letting people discover the culture on their own, without turning it into a trend.
Yeah, but he addressed that in part 1. Basically saying that it's not just the RUclipsrs doing it and that someone would eventually start talking about it even if he/they didn't. But yeah, they all definitely blow the hype train up with so much mass and momentum that it looks kinda silly for them to be part of those of us who complain about it lol. But I get it. It's all content and content is all $$$ for them. So you gotta take these takes with a grain of salt. It's mostly just him giving you reasons for going off the beaten path.
@@tomslick08 all RUclipsrs make locations more popular the white RUclipsrs made Bali Indonesia, more popular they made part of Spain islands part of Paris, France . Travel RUclipsrs make videos about their travels. They make every place more popular and people start going. We’re in the information generation on the information highway it is what it is to sit there and try to point fingers and say RUclips it’s ridiculous. Nobody’s ever gonna stop doing RUclips TikTok and every other form of social media. People walk around with cameras in their pocket due to their phones. Everything gets exposed. it is what it is
@@INTERNATIONALZOE Yeah, I agree with you. I wasn't saying y'all did anything wrong. But I did agree with him that y'all contributed to it being played out. It's literally your job to get that info out there and promote a lifestyle that people wouldn't have thought of on their own. And we definitely appreciate that. I ain't pointing fingers or tryna blame this process on y'all. It's just the natural cycle. Luckily there are two many different potential spots in the world for this to happen to all of them. It will happen again to a few more though. No harm no foul. Even the played out places are still fun if you know how to enjoy yourself and how to move in general to avoid danger and bad experiences (which comes with experience and good intel). The intel is valuable. And y'all give us (for free). So trust me that I ain't complaining or upset at all about it. I'm just pointing out that y'all contribute to it because it's inevitable with the nature of the business. It ultimately doesn't matter at all. The traveling lifestyle still reigns supreme. The locations switch up but the game remains the same. There's good times, beautiful scenery, and entertainment all over the world. Who cares if 4 or 5 cities get played out every 3-5 years?
I’m not putting all the blame on Zoe-it’s his fault to some extent, along with others-but I’m not making him the face of the problem. I’m a fan, which is why I’m a subscriber. People were doing this long before he was, and that’s a fact. What Zoe and other RUclipsrs like Ace Live, Check In Effect, FlyboyWay, and many other Black content creators don’t seem to fully grasp is that Black people set the trends. We’re the culture-people want to consume and follow what we do. If you strip away the racism and propaganda that tries to diminish us, it’s clear that we’re influential on a global scale. Look at when the Passport Bro movement gained traction-rappers like J. Cole and Migos made songs referencing it. Wherever we go, we set the wave. That said, we have to be more mindful of the impact. Whatever we do, the masses follow, and this can lead to long-term issues. Eventually, there might not be anywhere left for us to travel in peace. Any new destination we discover is at risk of being overrun and ruined, leaving the next generation with fewer options. And let’s not forget, it’s not just thirsty men watching these videos-governments, agencies like the FBI and CIA, and even the local authorities in these countries are taking notes. What Austin did in Brazil is a prime example-it damaged us even further. He can’t even return to Brazil now, and that situation only added to the growing tensions. Long term, I see the deterioration and oversaturation of travel content. Eventually, it’ll come to an end, unfortunately, because there will be no place to go without it being exploited. Colombia is already oversaturated, Thailand is next, and I’ve decided I’m never going back to the DR. As a Black traveler, people often assume we’re just there for sex tourism. Meanwhile, white travelers move under the radar because they aren’t recording everything or flaunting women on boats in every video. I’ve even heard locals in the DR say that white men criticize Black men for overpaying and driving prices up while doing the most. We’ve got to move smarter because the way things are going, it’s only hurting us in the long run.
I agree. Was just there in November. Dominican dudes are grimey. Dominican women are becoming more lazy and entitled. Airbnb hosts are scammers. Majority of the youth only know vaping n rap - Bachata is dying. I love Cape Town South Africa. Good culture, music, food, weather, and prices are still relatively cheap compared to US. And you can still enjoy yourself without getting charged tourist prices everywhere you go. Women are definitely some of the best I’ve seen
Out of all the 3 spots i visited( san jose, jaco, limon), Puerto Viejo ( Limon) was my favorite! Met a local beauty at the bus station in Limon on the way to PV and decided to chill there for 2 days. Then took her to PV.. Laid back surf town where you can " bring sand" on some grown man ish. Edit.. . The jamaican folk there call it " Old Harbor". Shout out to my lil man Israel.
Been to Thailand a few times and i feel like Thailand is played out also. Need more places to visit for us traveling men. Good content my dude. Keep them coming
I haven’t been to Costa Rica in years but it’s so damn expensive everything you said is how I feel smh. Took everybody with me after 5 times wanted to move there. Now that I’ve been to Asia it really got me debating.
@ Panama might be the move for now I’ve never been but to the airport and it is nice. I didn’t even know they opened the boarders in Cuba I’ll check that out too
I knew it was DR. I remember when I first started going. It was cool. It was a good time and then I remember the rise of the RUclips scene. I knew it was going to be bad when me and my friends tried to book tickets. I think it was on November December, October, and literally there were no flights to buy. That’s when I knew this place is going to be gone. I live in Atlanta and now finally surprisingly there are direct flights there so I’m going to check it out because I don’t have to fly all the way to Miami anymore. It’s been a total of almost 4 years since I’ve been back so it’s going to be interesting to see how it is.
What's crazy is there are new sets of younger females picking up right where the older ones are leaving it off. Even mother daughter combos. But I agree. Only so much you could do in Sosua.
First of all respect to International Zoe. I've visted The Sue a few time's from 21 to 22.. to be honest I loved it. Stopped at Flip Flops to get myself situated. Had my Raider gear on. All the brothers were nothing but true gentlemen. Every where I went the btothers had the Sue on lockdown . Got great treatment from the honeys. Once I get my money right I shall return!
Never had the pleasure of experiencing DR as a single guy but everything I been hearing lately has pushed it to the bottom of my list if I visit at all. That’s unfortunate
You right, but at the same time men thats not a passport bro keep making content to passport bros because the movement has went mainstream. Brothers go where you are happy at but be safe.
DR over populated by to many tourist going there from America and western Europe . It better go to other Caribbean islands . Just spread your wings travel to different places in the Caribbean. 🤔🏖💃👍👍
Costa Rica is super expensive, I was there in San-Jose, just 2 weeks ago it is not cheap I can tell you that! The weather can be nasty when it is raining season the whole country is soaked, mudslide, but it is a very beautiful place,
@@bigchuck2006 yes expensive but very chill and dont gotta worry about looking over your shoulder... Limon, puerto viejo is a dope vibe more Caribbean vibe on that side of costa
when you have large sums of men who are tricks coming to a place to trick putting women who are poor and basically have nothing on a pedestal, to think. you are going to get respect and appreciation from those women in that environment is laughable. That's the case anywhere you go at home or abroad.
Just left DR, Santo Domingo. Honestly wasn't impressed honestly. I've seen sosua videos and I knew it was somewhere I wouldn't like. Brothas are famous for having poor taste. lol
Could never make me dislike sosua..nothing like it.. the best thing about for me is how small and compact it is. Everything ten minutes or less.. shit cheap. Prices going up on mangos but I negotiate every time. And I been to jacao.. like mangos everywhere but they ain't making like sosua. Sosua just different
A cheaper cost of living is one of the pillars of this movement. So yea, it would be disingenuous to move the goal post and all of a sudden pretend that that's not part of the package people are looking for.
Te Aprecio que no dijo algunos lugares que no tienen ninjas malos y que no están en el radar... ¡Pero este tipo de información debería estar en tu Patreon! Es solo mi opinión. ¡¡¡Saludos!!!
Lol, I should've known. I've never been to Sosua and only heard of it from this RUclips black male traveling space. It sounded like a monger's paradise, but not my speed. I will check out Santo Domingo and (return to) Santiago one day. Beautiful women, beaches, and good food. I did hear that it's not as cheap as you'd think/hope tho. At least crime isn't as bad as Colombia or Brazil.
RUclips started in 2005, and I remember guys were saying similar things about Sosua and much worst about it than what Zoe is saying. Personally, I think Zoe is being nice in his opinion of Sosua compared to those guys 20+ years ago.
Like u naming these places but u know why we go to these places. Some of the places u naming as try this instead. They ain't got a pandemic of working girls like Columbia and dr
@Internation Zoe Salute I would like to do a response to this video, I was going to do a video on how Sosua is played out, you did yours first so i want to elaborate further on yours
Sosua was never great. Sosua is an RLD. You will never find love in RLDs, tourist hotspots & the capitol of any country. Every country is great, as long as you know the right people
Facts. P4P game is trash now in Rio. 6’s & 7’s from the favelas expecting 700rs for an hr. GFE extremely rare, Cariocas readily muck up everything with “game” and are more social media driven now. On average, the girls have become more sexually conservative and not as “freaky” as they used to be. 3 holers were the norm in Rio, now they’ll try to make you strap up for head or make you pay more for head without a hat. It’s all about the Benjamins now. The strip is dead on most night’s . The Dolce Vita scene and Mab’s scene are completely toast. Outside of termas or relationships with girls you’ve cultivated over the years, Rio is very hit or miss. Not too mention brazen criminal acts in broad daylight, racist Uber Drivers who rate you down just out of spite., and over priced Airbnbs.
If you come to Rio strictly for P4P and you cultivate no relationships or friendships, and you don’t bother to learn the language, then yes it is played out. I love Rio because of the vibe, the social life, the nature, the beaches, etc. Yes, housing is mor expensive now (depending on the neighborhood), but it’s worth it IMO.

Long term, I see the deterioration and oversaturation of travel content. Eventually, it’ll come to an end, unfortunately, because there will be no place to go without it being exploited. Colombia is already oversaturated, Thailand is next, and I’ve decided I’m never going back to the DR.
As a Black traveler, people often assume we’re just there for sex tourism. Meanwhile, white travelers move under the radar because they aren’t recording everything or flaunting women on boats in every video. I’ve even heard locals in the DR say that white men criticize Black men for overpaying and driving prices up while doing the most. We’ve got to move smarter because the way things are going, it’s only hurting us in the long run.
GREAT Videos
Thanks!
I agree. Was just there in November. Dominican dudes are grimey. Dominican women are becoming more lazy and entitled. Airbnb hosts are scammers. Majority of the youth only know vaping n rap - Bachata is dying.
I love Cape Town South Africa. Good culture, music, food, weather, and prices are still relatively cheap compared to US. And you can still enjoy yourself without getting charged tourist prices everywhere you go. Women are definitely some of the best I’ve seen
🎯 On Point Zoe ‼️
Good video
First visit was last week to Sosua. Not my taste. I'll definitely be hitting up Santo Domingo soon. Lot of baddies there.
I'll look into the Costa Rica experience. 👍
💯 on Sosua, even the quality of dudes going there. Is Boca Chica too far gone to make the list?😂
Zoe, you forgot the mention Puerto Limon, Costa Rica where there's a large bkack population and strong Jamaican community where English is spoken.
Out of all the 3 spots i visited( san jose, jaco, limon), Puerto Viejo ( Limon) was my favorite! Met a local beauty at the bus station in Limon on the way to PV and decided to chill there for 2 days. Then took her to PV.. Laid back surf town where you can " bring sand" on some grown man ish. Edit.. . The jamaican folk there call it " Old Harbor". Shout out to my lil man Israel.
I agree with your message 100 percent. I love the DR but Sousa has really change over the years and all the changes are not good.
Great content, very informative
Glad you enjoyed it
Been to Thailand a few times and i feel like Thailand is played out also. Need more places to visit for us traveling men. Good content my dude. Keep them coming
I think Thailand is gonna be part 3. Either that, or Philippines.
Facts....I stopped going there in 2020....played out 😢
Let them stay there before every other place turns out like that
Great content,these videos are much needed 🫡
I haven’t been to Costa Rica in years but it’s so damn expensive everything you said is how I feel smh. Took everybody with me after 5 times wanted to move there. Now that I’ve been to Asia it really got me debating.
I forgot to mention Cuba 🇨🇺 as an option or Panama
@ Panama might be the move for now I’ve never been but to the airport and it is nice. I didn’t even know they opened the boarders in Cuba I’ll check that out too
I knew it was DR. I remember when I first started going. It was cool. It was a good time and then I remember the rise of the RUclips scene. I knew it was going to be bad when me and my friends tried to book tickets. I think it was on November December, October, and literally there were no flights to buy. That’s when I knew this place is going to be gone. I live in Atlanta and now finally surprisingly there are direct flights there so I’m going to check it out because I don’t have to fly all the way to Miami anymore. It’s been a total of almost 4 years since I’ve been back so it’s going to be interesting to see how it is.
I've never been to Sosua and may not in my lifetime. Guess I miss the good old days
What's crazy is there are new sets of younger females picking up right where the older ones are leaving it off. Even mother daughter combos. But I agree. Only so much you could do in Sosua.
I guess ninjas will visit the suggested places and 2026 video will be back to the old cities 😅
Great drop so far 👌
lol😂
First of all respect to International Zoe. I've visted The Sue a few time's from 21 to 22.. to be honest I loved it. Stopped at Flip Flops to get myself situated. Had my Raider gear on. All the brothers were nothing but true gentlemen. Every where I went the btothers had the Sue on lockdown . Got great treatment from the honeys. Once I get my money right I shall return!
Never had the pleasure of experiencing DR as a single guy but everything I been hearing lately has pushed it to the bottom of my list if I visit at all. That’s unfortunate
You should still go and have your own experience this is for guys who keep going over and over and not trying other places to much.
It would be good to hear your opinion on Pattaya :)
Stay Tuned
@@JackSmith-gv5yw Pattaya is still a new vibe. Give it a couple of years
😂@@INTERNATIONALZOE
@@INTERNATIONALZOE Zoe what about Brazil is it played out
@@thetravelsimba Nah, it's already gone based on what we keep hearing on RUclips from several different content creators.
You right, but at the same time men thats not a passport bro keep making content to passport bros because the movement has went mainstream. Brothers go where you are happy at but be safe.
DR over populated by to many tourist going there from America and western Europe .
It better go to other Caribbean islands . Just spread your wings travel to different places in the Caribbean. 🤔🏖💃👍👍
Costa Rica is super expensive, I was there in San-Jose, just 2 weeks ago it is not cheap I can tell you that! The weather can be nasty when it is raining season the whole country is soaked, mudslide, but it is a very beautiful place,
Someone told me that Limon, CR is cheaper than San Jose.
Costa rica is the most expensive in central/south america....
@@bigchuck2006 yes expensive but very chill and dont gotta worry about looking over your shoulder... Limon, puerto viejo is a dope vibe more Caribbean vibe on that side of costa
CR is on point! Jaco Beach is great! Cocal is the place to be! ☺️👍🏾
Next week I'm headed down to Santo Domingo for my first trip ever to the DR. Any tips?
Have fun
Nightlife is good zona Rosa boca chica is close but be carful with ordering food there they will triple charge you 😂
Learn Spanish . Pregame online . Boca Chica & zona you have to be careful with the hustling .
Real talk
when you have large sums of men who are tricks coming to a place to trick putting women who are poor and basically have nothing on a pedestal, to think. you are going to get respect and appreciation from those women in that environment is laughable. That's the case anywhere you go at home or abroad.
I love sosua but just once a year
Sounds about right
Surprised it was #1 or you wasnt tryna hurt peoples feelings. Lmaoo 🌴
😂
DR was definitely a given. Costa Rica might be next on the list
Costa Rica cool but we not the women first choice it’s a white men sosua with jack up prices 2/300 for a hour tour 5/7 to keep the atv all night
@CurtisJackson-h1r Yeah the prices there are definitely ridiculous.
You called it creep camera dudes
good content
STOP GOING TO THE SAME PLACES LAMES. 💯 I been saying this since last year
I would have added CTG and Medellin..Where I disagree with you is.Some of them ninjas need to stay in those places.We don't need that cancer spreading
It's funny how guys think the other guys are the ninjas and they are not
Look likes we throw the corn and call de fowl...lol..Or the Trinis would say..."ants gone in yah sugar patch"...
He already said CTG and Medellin (I believe it was in part 1).
Just left DR, Santo Domingo. Honestly wasn't impressed honestly. I've seen sosua videos and I knew it was somewhere I wouldn't like. Brothas are famous for having poor taste. lol
Could never make me dislike sosua..nothing like it.. the best thing about for me is how small and compact it is. Everything ten minutes or less.. shit cheap. Prices going up on mangos but I negotiate every time. And I been to jacao.. like mangos everywhere but they ain't making like sosua. Sosua just different
Zoe 75% of these brothas just want cheap ass and cheap housing lol. Costa rica and curaco are expensive compared to the Sou. It just is what it is.
Facts
A cheaper cost of living is one of the pillars of this movement. So yea, it would be disingenuous to move the goal post and all of a sudden pretend that that's not part of the package people are looking for.
@@tomslick08 exactly. Thats why i brought it up. Hes doing well and might be out of touch with one of the main reasons this started.
He's a sophisticated trick now so he looks down on people who enjoy what they enjoy
@@johndavis4855 lol
I’m just going to sit this right here…..Panama City
Te Aprecio que no dijo algunos lugares que no tienen ninjas malos y que no están en el radar... ¡Pero este tipo de información debería estar en tu Patreon! Es solo mi opinión.
¡¡¡Saludos!!!
Y’all go to Costa Rica Jaco in particular it’s expensive for everything
I forgot to put Cuba 🇨🇺 as an option but I didn’t want to do the video all over the next two are better payed out.
I was planning on visiting Santo Domingo and Sosua next month for the first time. Should I change my mind? 😅
No the experience is always your own and you should own it.
KEEPIN IT A-HUN-NED. ONE! ☝🏿🖤 💯
Lol, I should've known. I've never been to Sosua and only heard of it from this RUclips black male traveling space. It sounded like a monger's paradise, but not my speed. I will check out Santo Domingo and (return to) Santiago one day. Beautiful women, beaches, and good food. I did hear that it's not as cheap as you'd think/hope tho. At least crime isn't as bad as Colombia or Brazil.
Can’t disagree with anything you said honestly
N Sosua now its paradise
I definitely agree lol
RUclips started in 2005, and I remember guys were saying similar things about Sosua and much worst about it than what Zoe is saying. Personally, I think Zoe is being nice in his opinion of Sosua compared to those guys 20+ years ago.
People talk about the su like it’s wakanda 😂
Let me Turn my Bell Notification 🔔 for the Final Episode 😅
Zoe, for those who know, DR is last on the list. Let me be more specific, Sosúa is last on the list
Sosua done fell off frfr. The chica quality is down, but the prices are hella high lol
Spy camera 📸? 😂😂😂😂
Like u naming these places but u know why we go to these places. Some of the places u naming as try this instead. They ain't got a pandemic of working girls like Columbia and dr
Try Cuba 🇨🇺
Costa Rica is hella dangerous now.
Everyone knew DR was coming HaHa
Yooo Cuzo wheres the Video ?
✊🏿💪🏿
Is MANCORA beach town in Peru as exciting as Sosúa and Jaco beach? ⛱ 💃🏽
@Internation Zoe Salute I would like to do a response to this video, I was going to do a video on how Sosua is played out, you did yours first so i want to elaborate further on yours
Dominicans Republic 🇩🇴 got a hold on me
😅
All Roads Lead to Sosua🤔
Sosua dropped all the way..
DR is finished
Sosua was never great. Sosua is an RLD. You will never find love in RLDs, tourist hotspots & the capitol of any country. Every country is great, as long as you know the right people
Rio is played out in my opinion
Stay tuned
Facts. P4P game is trash now in Rio. 6’s & 7’s from the favelas expecting 700rs for an hr. GFE extremely rare, Cariocas readily muck up everything with “game” and are more social media driven now. On average, the girls have become more sexually conservative and not as “freaky” as they used to be. 3 holers were the norm in Rio, now they’ll try to make you strap up for head or make you pay more for head without a hat. It’s all about the Benjamins now.
The strip is dead on most night’s . The Dolce Vita scene and Mab’s scene are completely toast. Outside of termas or relationships with girls you’ve cultivated over the years, Rio is very hit or miss. Not too mention brazen criminal acts in broad daylight, racist Uber Drivers who rate you down just out of spite., and over priced Airbnbs.
If you come to Rio strictly for P4P and you cultivate no relationships or friendships, and you don’t bother to learn the language, then yes it is played out. I love Rio because of the vibe, the social life, the nature, the beaches, etc. Yes, housing is mor expensive now (depending on the neighborhood), but it’s worth it IMO.
