living cheap in Santo Domingo
Hello,
Last year, i was living in the Dominican Republic. We were 2 , my girlfriend and I, living in Naco (Santo Domingo, -posh and expensive-). we were earning 16000 pesos a month (when we were getting paid on time!!!
), cumulated wages. We had to pay our rent (one bedroom from a local guy which was 6000 pesos a month - room located in Naco, convenient, as we were teaching in a school next block), food and travel (guagua mainly, for long journeys, we had the luxury to travel with the fully(!) air-conditionned Caribe tour bus).
It wasn't easy, but we made it and had an excellent time!
so i can only imagine what i would have done with 50000 pesos a month!
It was actually good to live with not much money, that was an excellent way to discover Santo Domingo and the entire Dominican Republic, living cheap, meeting loads of very interesting dominican people, compare to all those stupid people (mainly american (no racism, just noticing) showing off with their flashy cars, their bucks, and their budweiser...pathetic.
Have fun and have a good day!
Mike
