lol my judgement of distance and time is obviously poor, no it was not me that nearly ran you off the road!
My partner is from Santo Domingo, and we decided to live in Bani, we have just published the 1st issue of our magazine & subscriptions club "Bani City". NO we are definitely not drug trafficers. Thanks for your tips, I know some of these places, but have been here 4 months and not seen or met 1 gringo, I am ashamed to say my spanish is poor,so it is difficult for me, would love to have a gringo friend to meet up and have a coffee once in a while,my friends are nearer to the North Coast
