I'm finding that I'm enjoying the Domincan geniality quite a bit now that I've been here a year now. I'm refering to the way people act in semi-formal situations with strangers such as at the super, bank, etc.
I've spent most of my time in the cibao region but have visited the north coast and the capital on a few occasions. There is definitely a difference in the way I was treated in the North Coast areas and the Capital but I believe that is due to my appearance of being a gringo. In Santiago nobody pays me hardly any mind at all. Also, I've definitely noticed that the cheerier a person is the better results they will get.
My question is - is the cibao region is known for it's geniality more than the other areas or is it a Dominican trait to be found throughout the island?
