Well I do judge people on where they come from and I also judge them on not only how they treat me but how they treat the people around them.
Me not wanting to meet, greet and hang out with Americans has nothing to with any of the nonsense you're spewing.
It's based soley on my experiences, which have been overwhelmingly negative, not positive.
Most of the Americans I've met in Santiago, Sosua, Santo Domingo and Puerto Plata for the most part, behaved the exact same way. I gets tiresome. We Americans have a tendency to expect the rest of the world to do, say, think and act exactly like we do. Are there exceptions? Of course there are but I guess at my age I've less patience when it comes to looking for needles in haystacks so the blanket approach works better for me.
Obviously I agree not all Americans behave this way but I do remember (vividly) the last time I was invited out with a few here in Santiago who's big mouths stirred the pot and I definitely remember sitting there thinking to myself at the time
"this is the last time I'll ever do this sh*t again"
To be clear. No pension here.
No one ever fed me a d*mn thing. I've been getting on my own since I was 15 years old and take pride in continuing to do so while supporting not only myself but several other people both Americans and Dominicans.
