My wife and I are supposed to be moving to the DR in the next 4 weeks. We are hoping to move to an area between Sosua and Cabarete. We have recently read two guides to the area and because of the information contained in the books we are now reconsidering the move.
We have heard that the local male population are aggressive and abusive to females; that prostitues acost males and that the Police regularly stop drivers and demand bribes.
As I would be taking up a post as a Diving Instructor my wife would be alone at home during the day and the information from the publications has made me worried for her safety.
If anyone could tell me what it really is like to live there I would be eternally grateful as this information could make the difference to whether we continue with our plans or not.
Regards
Carl
