    So I went to VillaCon, a popular barrio (neighborhood) in Santo Domingo, with a Mid-low to Low income population. Watch the video to see how this part of the population lives!

    Uff Que nostalgia me dio cuando vi el local donde estaba El BONSUA 😢, lo recordaba mas grande, soy de Villa Juana y cuando empeze a salir a la calle fui la primera vez con 15 años, recuerdo que ir al BONSUA era como ponerse un rango a nivel de vaciladera en la calle 😂 hoy tengo 41 años... me hubiese gustado ver el los colegios donde estudie... ESPIRITU SANTO, CRISTOBAL COLON, BAUTISTA FUNDAMENTAL Y SANTIAGO APOSTOL, de todos me botaron por palomo 🤦🏽‍♂️. BUEN VIDEO👍🏽

    Thanks for Purely Walking all over the place Eli!👁 (& wiggling your car thru sometimes difficult/tight traffic!)...👍Appreciated all ur insight, references/highlighting past & current establishments, ways & places to shop/relax/socialize/worship, showing popular & well-known streets/points of interest, history of the area, etc... 😌& (as is typical of your videos) the cool tunes/vibes in sync w/your laid-back "chilled" narrative style sound w/various assorted inflections! ...😅👏🆒️🌬🇩🇴

    Wow! This is unbelievable! I used to live in Villa Consuelo from 1982 to 1986 with my uncle and my grandma on Azorvispo Valera Avenue, close to Tunty Caceres. Back in that time, the neighborhood was a lot safer. Residents used to leave the doors of their houses and neighbors would great each other. I used to go school in Ensanche Quisqueya, an upscale middle class neighborhood. Ahh! The memories. Hard to believe that my cousin told me that today that Santo Domingo has a serious crime problem, and that juvenile delinquents roam through Villa Consuelo. Hopefully, Santo Domingo will become safer again.

      I'm so glad this video brought back good memories!
      Yes unfortunately, crime is always an issue in some areas of town. But there is always the bright light of those good folks and welcoming families living there.

    Min 13:55 the blue corner that's where my grandma's house is la Ana Valverde. I love being there. Fun fact my home is one of the oldest home in the neighborhood with my family residing in it for over 80 years my grandma rings bells lol 🙏

    Great video. You seem to know your way around in VillaCon and other neighborhoods . Although I was born in VillaCon, I don't know where anything is anymore. :(

    It looks like some of the hood where I'm from in Miami like Opa-locka and Liberty City not sure if you're familiar with that the only thing that gives it away is how low the power lines are but if the power lines were not so low I wouldn't be able to tell the difference

    • @PurelyWalking
      @PurelyWalking  2 года назад

      Ohhh really?! I'm not familiar with those areas in Miami, so it's highly surprising to know Villa Consuelo looks similar to any Miami area!
