In the words of AlterEgo:
POSITIVE Sosua Stories?????
I'd like to hear some of the positives about Sosua, there must be some.
So, all of you folks who LIVE in Sosua, let's hear the reasons you happily stay there. NOT because of the readily available women. NOT because you can't sell your place.
Anyone? I know you're out there!!!

I think AlterEgo's post might have gotten lost in another, rather contentious thread.
In any event, I think it was a great suggestion, and I would like to see some POSITIVE experiences posted here, with respect to AlterEgo's wishes.
I know there were many already posted on the other thread, but they got were minimized amidst some petty bickering and the ubiquitous anti- Sosua side-show put on by the usual array of clowns.
I will start by saying I have been vacationing in Sosua for nearly 6 years (never once staying in an All-inclusive), and I have lived here full-time for almost 2 years.
In my opinion, Sosua, and in fact all of POP province, is completely unique. There is no where in the world where one can travel and see such a wide variety of interesting people, places, and sights.
First and foremost, The North Coast of the DR is home to some extremely warm, wonderful and intriguing people, both Dominican and ex-pat. These people are the back-bone of the North Coast. They come from all over the globe, and each individual has their own totally unique history and background.
For the most part, these inhabitants of the North Coast are very adventurous and extremely well-traveled. They have seen many places in their travels, and they are more than willing to share their experiences with others. In addition, those who chose to stay here have based their decision to do so upon years of experience.
In general, these people are also very well educated, and have lead interesting and successful lives in their respective home-countries and elsewhere around the world.
There are, of course, the occasional crooks that enter the mix, but they simply add a touch of color and make us all that much more watchful and aware of our surroundings.
I won't get into the beautiful weather, water, and women. Those qualities go without saying, and I will let others expound upon those qualities. For me, the most valuable asset of the North Coast is the array of truly interesting and engaging people.
I love it here!
