Hi.
I am coming back to DR after a long time this christmas. I havent seem family and friends for 18 years. I am a bit nervous and everyone tells me my home town has changed beyond recognition.
this may sound really dumb but i dont know what I should wear during the day and also evenings. i dont know what people expect me to look like, i was 15 when i left.
do any of you have any tips (i dont think i should depend on shorts, tshirts and the regular "caribbean" clothes i wear when i go to jamaica or st barts as this isnt really a beach/holiday trip, but more like a family reunion.
also, should i wear fine jewelry or leave it at home?
do people still bring lots of gifts for others as well?
should i be afraid of being mugged if i wear nice clothes and jewelry? my family said they want "to show me off" to all the relatives so as you can see there is some pressure involved.
thanks for any advice
