    I live in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. People on the streets will always dress up and put on colorful masks, it's a really great show to see.

      Tamboril tiene su carnabal, un senor llamado Francisco, o Franciquito vestias a hombres de lodo o tierra amarrilla, y a los caballos y burros los desfilaban como grupo, esto era tipico en Tamboril cuando el carnaval. Tambien participaban muchos les dice diablos cajuelos, tenian muchos espejos, y latigos, vejigas, ect.
      El que trataba de molestarlos quitandoles espejitos les daban vejigazos, y se exibian da do lastigazos en las calles.

      Yeah there can be friendly people but it is known for being the country with the most dangerous streets to drive in. And most people will try to steal from you. Also men will always want to cat talk women and even violate them due to their poor education. I'm not trying to be mean, its the truth, I live there but not in the poor hoods.

    • @renthehag
      @renthehag 5 лет назад +3

      Glad I’m not the only one who saw the similarity between these and the vejigante masks! As a Puerto Rican who grew up stateside and pretty far removed from any larger Latino communities, it’s always neat to learn something new about Latino culture in general.

    We’re so lucky. We share a history with Haiti 🇭🇹 and so I celebrate Jan 1st!! And just Haitian independence. Literally all of January. Feb 9th Slavery was abolished in Santo Domingo 🇭🇹🇩🇴. So our independence month on February afterwards is great.
    If y’all going to fight me about Haiti. I will beat your asses up. We don’t shame her over here.
