Hi all,
I'll be in the DR next month for a lil bit of a stay. I'm going to be staying in Sosua (not an AI) and I wondered if I could get any advice from folks on things to see and do...other than la playa of course. I haven't been to the DR in many years, and never on the North Coast.
I realize Sosua is a "touristy" type of place and although I'll be "based" there I'm not really a "touristy" kinda guy too much...what I'm looking for is suggestions on where to go and things to do to see the country and spend more times hanging with Dominicans rather than foreign tourists all the time.
Any ideas on places to visit, nightlife, things to do (and NOT to do), best ways to improve my Spanish, etc. all very appreciated! If you respond please include advice on getting around also since I will not have a car (just as well as I'd probably too afraid to drive in the DR anyway--last thing I need is some horrific accident with a motorconcho or an animal or something . I already know it seems the bus is a good way to move around from town to town. Thanks in advance.
Peace
