The opening scene looks like they're training for the Dominican luge team.

Everyone knows.....except the ones who don't. Oh well.

The beach..... was not even included in the off-limit beach area for Easter Week......Over the Easter holidays, the Weather Office (Onamet) had banned swimming in Puerto Plata beaches due to the strong currents and waves. This is confusing. Was swimming banned in this area or not?

If not we can invent one. It's a new world.

He's just now learning that Haiti is a dump? Obviously not a DR1 member.

I have a Claro sim card. If I'm out of the country for more than a month it no longer works unless I get a recarga - even though I have money "on account". It seems like it's a re-activation fee more than it is a re-charge. No one can explain why and I've given up asking ("no se amor"). The 5...

These elitist jackals are in essence advocating for an increase in poverty in Latin American, African, and Asian countries whose economies rely in large part on coffee production. I just returned from Costa Rica to visit a boy I sponsor though Unbound.org. Coffee is 8% of their GDP. They have...

That would seem logical, but even in my home country I see the same thing. Teenage and young girls pushing baby strollers with no apparent future or devoted partner, yet next week there's a new baby stroller on the block. Perhaps they were raised that way and think it's normal? I don't know...
