I live in England and have been home from the DR for a week. Without wanting to sound over dramatic, i am a changed woman!
I have fallen in love with the place! The people, the music, the dancing, the language! So much so, infact, that i got the reps at the hotel to make me a cd of some Merengue and Bachata music, i am starting Salsa/merengue lessons next week, and i have enrolled in Spanish lessons at our local college!
What a beautiful place, and how nice are the local people? The men are a little forward, i grant you, but i got used to it and i think it's just there way. I spent the whole week learning Spanish with the hotel staff and have amazed them at work coz i've practically learned half a language in a week! I love it! Everything about the dominican is so sexy.
However, the downside to such a wonderful holiday is that i am now in the depths of depression as its freezing here. At the moment the only thing thats getting me through is the fact that i'm going to go again ASAP!
Has anyone got any advice for finding English employment there as maybe a tour operater or something? I'm seriously considering it but don't know where to start...
