I love your videos. They are so informative and very helpful. I visit family in Puerto plata every January. I love the DR and the natives. The only problem I have is the driving! If you could just do something about the drivers! I was told NOT to rent a car because if you get into an accident even if it's not your fault all they want is to get paid. It's unfortunate. Because the DR, weather, people and food are amazing and so beautiful.
Thanks Joe, and for staying tuned! Yes, if it's not a big bother during visits to simply use "Hired transportation" then for sure this is one way to remove the fault from you during a potential accident. But when you live here, then you need to go where you want, when you want, and having your own wheels become a must. We get better and better with time at reading the stupidity, habits etc... of drivers here (so much about preventing situations) and as our Spanish gets better, this too helps us in situations where someone does try to pull a swifty on us. Enjoy your future trips! Brgds, Mr.T :)
It's funny, but I never got involved in an accident in 40 years in DR. I only noticed that we are a bit chaotic once I drove in NY (although NY is getting wild lately). I guess is an organized chaos and it's normal to the locals
Yes she did actually say that when they come down here, some treat her in a bad way (probably try to "buy her services" for services she doesn't offer) yet some dudes tar every girl here with the same brush, that's her beef with such dudes.
Hmm. That’s how it is with Puerto Ricans, Cubans, Mexicans, etc in the US. They bring their music, their food, their flags, etc and live like they did when in their country.
You've got a good point, and I don't try to become part of the culture, but rather just try to respect it, like I like when they respect mine. I like Rock, Blues, and more, yet after 16+ years, I still can't stand listening to too many "tipica" songs in a row, so that leaves me to either tolerate it, or leave that place with the ear-piercing music to another much more tranquillo hang-out, and there's plenty of options. Thanks for watching and commenting! Brgds, Mr.T
And here's what this Gringo hate when I come to Sosua. Stop comparing prices to what we pay in the states. You are not charging Dominicans 1000 pesos for haircuts!

The people of the DR are wonderful! I respect them and I’m thankful for their hospitality.
Hats off!! To the young man who spoke about respect for women. ❤ and as always Mr.T thank you for a great video
Thanks, Australia for commenting and watching! Brgds, Mr.T :)

That question could be answered with one sentence. For Dominicans, Gringos are walking ATM machines.

Damn they are doing chem trails in the DR too?

So do Italians, Greeks,Irish, French, Canadians. What's your point?
