Hi all,
This is a great board. OK, here goes:
I've been around in the world but its the first time to the DR. Go figure...I live on the East Coast of the US and its so close.
Anyway, no offense to anyone, I really don't like the tourist haunts and prefer to get into the mix of things. Yeah, yeah...I know the DR can be dangerous but common sense should prevail no matter where you go. I'm thinking of renting a car once I get out of SD and driving around through the country for a week. I'd like to get a day or two in Santo Domingo and was thinking of Santiago and the North Coast.
I realize this is gonna be very ambiguous, but "Any thoughts?"
What to do in Santiago? Puerto Plata vs. Sosua? Your favorite place to hang with the locals? (I speak Spanish pretty well)
Thanks

I run a Cuba site at www.cubanonet.com There's a very active bulletin board there if you're looking for Cuba info or just want to talk about Cuba
