that was a very good reply chris thank you
i dind't mean to come off as an arrogant kid with a bad attitude. It might just be what i am though, who knows.
I speak spanish, i need about a month to brush up and perfect it. It will be a an office job, dealing with my father's business matters. transportation could be an issue, so i will be loooking at buying a used car. I am less concerned with work and more concerned with 1. safety 2. making friends as quickly as possible 3. having the most amazing time.
keep em coming guys i really appreciate it.
Safety will depend completely on where your condo is located.
Somewhere between POP and Sosua is a big space, and some places are secure, others not, so to get proper advice, we'd have to know where exactly, and then we can suggest what measures, if any, need to be taken.
I have some condos in a secure complex, so we limit ourselves to just making sure the windows and doors are closed and locked and watch who we invite in.
In other areas, you might want a nasty dog, but that may be difficult in a condo.
Sometimes bars are needed, sometimes a watchman.
And then, there are places that are simply a lost cause, that no matter how hard you try to prepare properly, they will still rob you.
As some of us have been living on the North coast for a long time, we will surely be able to make the right suggestions, once we know where it is.
