  • I had been in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic for some time but had decided to go out for a daytrip to an island called Catalina Island. It is located 1.5h from Punta Cana and outside the city of La Romana, just 1.5 miles off the coast. The islan dis a protected island and there ar eno houses on it. In the coming videos I will be traveling to santo domingo, Cabarete, Puerto Plata, Sosua and maybe Las Terrenas. Dominican republic is similar to the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico and places like Cancun, Playa Del Carmen, Tulum and Cozumel. It's similar in many aspects but Mexico seems a bit more developed so far. The hurricane season in the caribbean is about to be over soon. There had been a recent hurricane called hurricane Nicole but it had gone further up away from Dominican Republic.

    Thanks for promoting my country, very nice video.
    Some history, the Romana town is known for one of the top Caribbean resorts “Casa de Campo” but everything started with big sugar cane fields and a sugar cane mill, located at you right hand on the way to Catalina.
    In the past farmers brought the sugar cane to be be weighted there, there were a big scale branded “Romana” so the name stick.

    I love hearing you might return to Mexico... I love that country and the many many unusual activities... Like the Mummy Museum, and So many ancient cultural ruins! Does it seem like there are more archeological sites than just about any other country? I read that Mexico has the most Museums of any country per capita and that most of them are pretty amazing! I would love to see you get permissions to show us more inside some of those places... Looking forward to your next video!

    William, I agree that constant traveling is extremely exhausting after a while and so it's good to put down roots some place for at least a few months and find a couple of good people to hang out with. Otherwise yes, it can be quite lonely. I am going through that myself right now and trying to figure out where to put down some shallow roots, so to speak. Going back to Mexico seems to me to be a good idea. I'm there right now and love the beach communities. The challenge is finding exactly the right place, but I'm sure you will since you've been to many different places there. So, best of luck William. Also, you're almost at your goal of 100,000 subscribers - only 15,000 to go! I predict you will get there by the end of this year. I'm rooting for you. ❤️

      It’s January right now & William needs around 10.5K more to hit 100K subscribers. I’m thinking he might hit the magic number July 4th. He’s so good at editing, adding the soundtrack & his warm personality that he’ll be there very soon.

      Very true Steve. I have suggested to William to follow Dan and Cheung of Vagabond Awake and Hobo Ventures. You might enjoy them as well. William could likely reduce his expenses and increase the income from his business if he would be wise enough to follow their lead. Might well meet new, compatible travel partners for increased joy in his life.

It was so awesome at Dry Tortugas National park in Florida. It was like torquoise blue water, absolutely amazing, I went snorkeling there it was very beautiful! back in 01' I will definitely say enjoy all that if you can everywhere you travel.Stay healthy & Happy! You're a huge inspiraton to many people out in this world! I want to see you excel at all you do, You are amazing!

    Hi William, It is nice to travel around the world through your videos. Thanks for visiting my country. I will be visiting my hometown in a couple weeks. I'm from the city of Santiago. If you go to Puerto Plata, I would recommend to visit La Ensenada Beach. If you dare to go a little further northwest, go to MonteCristi and it would provide a more relaxing experience. If you are really looking for a real island experience and get to know the people there, then visit the inland provinces. The culture there is so rich, the food is even better, not to mention the natural beauty of its mountains, rivers and waterfalls.

    About a month after your visit to Catalina we took a sailboat cruise there. The cruise was great, they had a couple of georgeous Dominican girls dancing and getting the toursists moving. The island was fun, but I too was getting "annoyed at a few things". I was tipping anyway, but the bartenders basically would refuse to pour you a drink unless you did. Next time I'll take a bottle of rum and give them the finger, lol. But yeah, solo travel can sometimes be a little lonely.

    Your dream is a perfect dream for you, I think. as for being seasick some people have it for 3 or 4 days before they get used to it, I think with your style of you tubing you sailing the Caribbean would be a huge success. Do it!!! There is something about sailing video's that are addictive to watch. The content would be so different compared to hotel rooms walking and talking. The best part of your video's is you!!! #1 snorkeling #2 visiting seaside towns #3 exploring new things #4. A small sailboat I think you could operate it by yourself. Intern on a sailing boat and learn the ropes literally. I can't wait to see you sailing.

    I wonder if you would be interested in posting some videos on how to use GoPro etc because your videos are amazing and I’m just starting to use a go pro, maybe a separate channel idea!

    So weird I was un subscribed for some reason? Re Subbed, I skipped Santo Domingo and went straight to Puerto Plata and then on to Sosua which I ended up staying for 2 Months. Looking forward to seeing what I missed in SD
