Can anybody point me in the right direction ? The internet site of media ambiente is very cluttered and not easy to find specific information. My question is : Are we allowed to burn vegetation ? We are talking about wood, leaves, etc, etc, and not plastics and whatnot. Any info/...

I have run out of bedtime stories for kids 😞. Have done all the usual stories ( snow white, Cinderella, little red riding hood, etc.....) and also all the fables De La Fontaine. I am surprised at how difficult it is to find Spanish material. Is there no typical Spanish stories for kids, like...

I received an SMS advert thingy from Claro, telling me I can do my stuff through their app. Now, the only thing I despise more than the DR communication system/businesses is the DR banking system...... Both seem to be stuck in the 20th century. I have had horrible experiences with claro, vivo...

Landed Monday afternoon at SDQ. Empty airport, ours was the only plane arriving. No lines at migracíon or customs, just breezed past. Nobody asked to see an e-ticket entry thingy. The traffic into SD was light, very light. I was surprised --- in a good way, mind you.😀 The new metro line...

Last time I travelled from SD, the terminal was a mess, under construction/renovation. This time the lounges were open and I went to Sala Caribe. Nice, clean, modern. Some food and drinks, not the best I have seen but better than nothing. You can access it free of charge if you have...

Long story short, there is a medium size dog with a broken back ( I am guessing ). Who do we call ? We are in the campo.

Tis the Season, not to be jolly, just yet, but of Cacatas 😖😖😖😖😖😖😖. And plentiful this year.......

As is the norm, i was getting mixed signals from the different DGM offices. POP spluttered, had no idea, but urged me to upload my documents for renewal, before i left. Couldnt do it as Procuderia General could not issue a certificado de no antecedente penal using my cedula ( because it was out...

Had an interesting conversation. Haitian lady wants to go back to Haiti for holidays/visiting family. She is illegal. Works as a cleaning lady/cook, in a Dominican household. So she asks for a week off work. Approved. The next day (!!) she stops off to say goodbye all dressed up, make-up...

Anybody else seeing that comet-style thing in the sky tonight ? Huuuuge. no idea what it is.

I see that the thread on the murder of Lindsay was closed by mods, and I understand. However, I understand that the trial is reschedule to the 1st of December, and I was wondering if anybody had plans to attend the hearing---- or at the least just be present outside the courthouse ? Sorry if I...

Posted here because " insufficient privilege " to post in travel ..... (??). Decided to use my return " post covid " airline tickets. So I had a return Geneva-Zurich-PuntaCana left over from when covid first striked and it was complicated to get back home for work. First complication was that...

If you are offended by a term like "woke", believe the earth is flat and that dinosaurs are a myth invented by communism, the DR hardly needs your contribution. Dominicans are, imo, one of the most welcoming and tolerant folks, I have come across....... And I wouldn't mind it staying that way...

Long story short I will be staying a night or 2 in SD--- toque de quede and all. Bright side is I will take a bus down and save myself from going crazy driving in traffic. Anyhow, I am staying near Pianiti (sp?), and was wondering if anybody has some good tips for some "western" style...
