Saw this post on Facebook this morning and thought I'd pass it on. A fellow Canuck is having a rough time with a hip operation gone wrong. I've met Pat before but don't know him on a personal level but I do know he is well liked by many people. Give it a quick read if interested. Crowdfunding...
22 years in the DR and have never had to transfer money outside the DR lol So at a total loss as to what the best option is. I only have pesos accounts in the DR (Scotiabank and BHDLeon along with US credit cards at both) and have a CAD account in Canada (mom has a USD account if needed)...
They're looking for volunteers for the tournament if anyone is interested http://www.puntacana.com/coraleschampionship
For those that haven't gone, it's a beautiful course.

I was asked a while back to give an update when I finally applied for my residencia definitiva, so here it is.
First off, to qualify for the definitiva you have to have had your residencia permanente for at least 10 years. Secondly, you have to request the change of category, it doesn't happen...
Just paid my 2 pending fines online at https://portal.servicios.pgr.gob.do/Login . You simply create an account and consult your pending fines then select the ones you want to pay and enter a credit card. Easy peasy. Double-checked after and they now show up as paid.

Just confirmed today that the Migración office in Punta Cana (located in Punta Cana Village, behind Wendy's on the 2nd floor) can now receive residency applications and renewals. You of course have to first apply online by selecting the correct office before selecting the service and once...
A little while back I thankfully asked for recommendations for a trip my hubby and I wanted to do to the Constanza/Jarabacoa and maybe Ocoa area. Based on that, this is what we ended up doing.
Left Punta Cana on a Thursday afternoon, unfortunately quite a bit later than planned and ended up in...
Hubby and I are looking to get out of Punta Cana for a long week. Since I haven't been to Constanza in over 12 years I think it would be a nice change. We have a Kia Soul. Up to now what we're considering is:
Day 1
Drive to La Vega then up to Jarabacoa.
Visit Salto de Jimenoa 1 and/or Salto...
Following what's happening right now in Higuey. People apparently are protesting that it's taking too long to get the results which appear to be very close between Karina and Cholitin. Shots and tear gas to disperse crowds have been reported and they've started burning tires in Villa Cerro...
According to this article in Bavaro News, an office has been opened in La Sirena Higuey to issue and renew licences. Bit by bit...

If anyone is interested, I've been caring for a cat for the past few weeks. She doesn't appear to have a family since she spends most of her time on my balcony but she's verrry affectionate. I unfortunately can't keep her since my chihuahuas would make her life hell nor do I want her to live...
For the east coast residents:
Starting today until Monday, 40 volunteer Canadian veterinarians from CANDI (Cats and Dogs International) will be in Veron (Punta Cana) to spay and neuter between 800-1000 cats and dogs for free. They'll be located close to Ferreteria el Detallista and the only...
Surprised no locals have reported this yet. Things seem a bit caliente in Higuey at the moment with protests and tires burning but everything quiet in Punta Cana with no incidents reported up to now. The local taxis were lined up on the highway today and reports say only tourists going to and...
