I am going for the first time ever to another country (Dominican) and am very excited. I am not going to a fancy resort or ritzy hotel or anything. I plan on living like the locals and getting an apartment. This isn't a vacation at all. I was told from someone that stayed in the D.R that electricity and water goes out a lot and sometimes for long periods of time. Is that true or very rare? Is food scarce at times? I have no problem trying to adapt to new things, but should I bring some food from the U.S with me? I will be there in December, is that Summer there? I'm completely naive to the D.R so pls help out. In some ways it may be similar to other latin cultures, I'm Mexican so I know I will love the family-oriented people I will meet.
thanks
