Hi, I'm a newbie. How they make it? Let me tell you Dominicans are very hard workers and they work at anything, selling all kinds of things on the streets, from fruits to bread, cleaning houses, etc. I remember seeing people at 12:00 p.m. when the sun is the hottest pushing a cart full of plaintains, yucca, potatoes, etc. I tell you, I admire those people because they rather work hard under the sun to support their family rather than do anything illegal. I left the country a long time ago ('75) as a child and have not had the opportunity to travel there much so I don't know if it is still like that, but I would imagine so. I lived in Santo Domingo.
