No kidding. Vamos para aca next time. https://hoy.com.do/desaprensivos-arrebataban-carteras-celulares-y-otras-pertenencias-en-sdo/

Thanks for the information NALS. But, all we seem to have is this guy's word for what happened. I looked at two Youtube videos he has of the RD. Nothing concerning that I can see. Except, he is excrutiatingly boring as are so many of these people that post this stuff. Yawn. I can't...

Punta Cana is a political/municipal boundary. It includes Veron, which is a town. In La Altagracia province. The capital is Higuey. It is all a little confusing. People use Punta Cana to refer to all kinds of locations because it has a certain amount of prestige. There are actually places...

Jjj. The real accountant.

Sounds cynical verdad. I won't post in this thread again. Unless something really eye opening happens. Like you send us photos from Las Americas or PUJ. You know all you need to know. Buena suerte.

She didn't think you were 40. She just knows the right things to say. As AE says, there is a playbook.

Won't make any difference. She is playing the long game. You will put the house in her name before long and think you made the decision. You should listen to AE. She knows more than most on this board. Because she has lived it for many years.

Perfect. Nothing more to be said.

I think you will be fine. Just be alert. And, stay where there are people. Altos de Chavon is great in an artificial sort of way. But, nice anyway. There is a good museum where you can see some history of the Tainos, etc. Our kids have gone on field trips there. And, it is in Casa de...

How to be a millionaire in the DR. Come here with two million.

Ok. One more. So, my wife isn't stupid. She is a well-respected professional among her peers. But, she likes to take the bus when the Maserati is in the shop ;) So, one day she takes the bus. Gives the cobrador quiniento pesos because she does not have change. Typical. The cobrador gets...

The truth. (I am married to such a family.). Don't risk what you can't afford to lose. This guy is naive beyond belief. See #44 above.

What I am saying is that if you go to La Sirena, Jumbo, or Plaza Lama in La Romana you will be treated well. No street hustlers on the premises, shoppers polite for the most part. All these stores are clean and reasonably well run. What I was trying to say is that it is kind of a long drive...

I should add, since you asked, that traffic in La Romana is terrible too. But, if you are staying at Playa Nueva Romana, you would be coming into La Romana from the west on the highway to Villa Hermosa where the autopista curves north and goes around La Romana. From Villa Hermosa it is city...

No one will do that to you at Jumbo, Plaza Lama, or La Sirena in La Romana. Nor at Orense, Iberia, or Hiper. I have had a house there for 10 years. My wife and daughters live there. I go to Jumbo, Plaza Lama, and La Sirena all the time. I doubt it is worth the trip tho if the other places...
