Someone please help me out. I am applying for a fellowship to live in the DR, but I have never visited. So I have to decide *where* I want to live in the DR to do this fellowship and I have the choice of Santo Domingo or Cabarete. I am looking for an urban area where I will NEVER have to use a car, and there will be buses and stuff. I am looking for a place that *does NOT* close down after 1 AM, has a lot of movie theaters and restaurants and just places where I can really experiences Dominican culture. PLEASE not a tourist spot, I really want a city (maybe like a Greenwich village Caribbean style) with lots of aspects of Dominican culture. So, since I will not be able to visit, can you guys tell me if which place moreso fits what I am looking for: Cabarete or Santo Domingo?
