The title of this post sort-of says it all. I live on the east side of Puerto Plata and need some local drone footage ASAP. I have not found anyone in the area yet who does this work. Does anyone have any references?

Hello. We run a home for girls, and are thinking that dance classes might be a great activity. Are there any in the Puerto Plata/Montellano/Sosua area for girls under the age of 10?

This week I was at the long beach of Playa Dorado on the north coast. I was pleasantly surprised to see two baby sea turtles in the water - maybe three inches long. Based on my photos and later research, I believe they were Hawksbills. Worldwide these are quite rare. Does anybody know anything...

Can anyone tell my why there is zero white sugar in the stores, and brown sugar is being sold in limited quantities? I especially don't understand since the DR is a sugar producer!

We want to install AC in our bedrooms. We live outside Puerto Plata. Our electrician can purchase the following brands: Aire Conforstar (cheapest), Aire Airmax (a little more) or Aire Innovair (a little more still). I am actually less concerned about price than I am quality. Anyone have...

On Saturday we were returning from east end of island to the PP area, along the coast. Because of the heavy rains the detour road in Montellano was closed due to high water. We eventually decided to take the long way around (over the mountain to Santiago, and back on the parallel mountain road)...

The ministry that I work with is being donated a car in the US. Does anyone have experience with importing a car for that purpose? Can a non-profit/fundacion be exempt from paying import taxes? Does anyone have a great person to help safely and quickly shepherd a car through the import steps?

I live near Puerto Plata. I am looking for sod for my lawn. Does anyone know where to purchase it. I'd prefer to have it installed, if they know what they're doing.

I am near Puerto Plata. I want to purchase sod for a couple areas, and hopefully have an experienced person install it to maximize chances of it succeeding. Do any of you know a person or business that does this?

Hi Everyone, I have been a birdwatcher in the US for 40 years, and am fairly accomplished. But of course there are great new things here. Perhaps you can tell me what I'm hearing. After significant rainstorms I often here a creature, at night, that sounds like a jackhammer - a deep penetrating...

Our house needs a full interior paint job, which I will do myself. I've done two rooms with a semi-gloss. Great for cleaning but pretty shiny. Anyone have experience with satin here - does it fade into a flat, or does it keep its quasi-shine? I'm outside Puerto Plata.

My wife and I live in the DR and have Claro SIM cards in our phones. She is traveling to the US this week. Is there an easy way to use that set-up in the US? Maybe an addition to our Claro plan that makes the phone work in the US? (Last year when I traveled to the US I went to Verizon and...

I was a pastor in the US for ten years before we moved to the DR to start an orphanage, and I've been a Christian believer for 35 years. Few things in life are more satisfying to me than helping someone who feels far from God, step in closer to Him. Lots of events in our lives, the news, or...

Here in Camu we've had a major mosquito outbreak in the last week. I here it is bad in Montellano also. Perhaps other towns along the north coast. A few nights ago a pick-up truck with loud sprayer on the back slowly drove through the neighborhoods putting up a fog. I'm new here. Can anyone tell...

New to the North Coast. Any recommendation for insurance agent/company for auto insurance - Puerto Plata or Sosua?

Hi, I am a pretty serious birder, and new to the PP area. Does anyone know if there is a birdwatching group here on the north coast? Mark McEathron

Hi, I have seen many very positive recommendations about Mike Logan to help with a car purchase. (My wife and I just moved to Camu to start an orphanage). I have reached out to Mike with no luck - maybe he has a new email? Can anyone confirm for me his email, a provide a WhatsApp contact...
