So have you ever heard or read on dating sites or a person's media profile. Under things they like to do? Walks on the beach. Well down here its down right fun lol! One of the many things you can do or see are the types of people there. The young old skinny fat you name you"all see it. Topless ladies including many that shouldn't be lol. And that speedo guy you wish you hadn't seen! Of course you will run into the sales guy trying to sign you up for an excursion. Or to take you to his store. Sometimes its hard to be nice o these people when you really don't want to listen to their pitch. Then there are the massage ladies. Where in a span of three minutes you can go from ... read more

Hoy visitamos mejor museo en la Republica Dominicana! Fue fantastico y maravilloso! Disfrutamos las fotografias y las pinturas. Our first adventure with "unknown" taxi drivers, who took us to what is supposedly the best museum in all of the Dominican Republic. A fairly normal Dominican ride, as they go, of about five minutes. We arrived at a glass fronted, manicured, modern looking building. We found out that to our great good fortune, the museum was free because the had just installed a new exhibition the night before. Quickly we split into several groups and proceeded to go in various directions. The museum contained a variety of pictures, from black and white to full color. Many of the paintings were Picasso-esque, while others portrayed a darker quality. One, a kid with his head stuck in a wall ... read more

Today we visited the 27 waterfalls and trekked up the Dominican mountains to the waterfall ledges. We hiked through the jungle - giant palm tree leaves branched out like umbrellas that shaded us from the sun and the native birds sang from the tree canopies. Aloe vera plants and cacti bordered the stone pathways. Finally we reached our destination... The waterfalls! The first jump was the most exhilarating - 26. 25 feet! We also slid down rock slides and jumped off more ledges and bobbed along the water in our life-jackets. The water was absolutely refreshing and such a break from the 90°F weather. After the waterfall adventure we walked back down to the welcome center and ate a delicious buffet meal. At the end they gave us complimentary sugarcane to chew on, which was a ... read more

Yo brahhs. Vangeli and Ari, our hero's for the day, are making up some grub. From early morn, when he and Ari grabbed a cart beneath the gun wielding security guard at the supermercado, Vangeli has been our source of entertainment. For brekkie, we feasted on mango and pina and banana and eggs and pan and yogurt....Now (uh oh, dinner is ready), pasta and veggie/tomato sauce, garlic bread, and good home cooking done to perfection. Vangeli looked especially stylish in the kitchen with his muy guapo hair cut-courtesy of Raffie J. Stylo at the barber just down the hill.... read more

I found Las Galeras on the Samana Peninsula of the Dominican Republic to be a great location to land for a week and de-stress during our spring break. The beaches there are amazing and not crowded and you can get around the area without needing a car. In fact, most of your transportation will be by boat if you are going mostly for the beaches. Having never been to the Caribbean I didn’t know exactly what to expect, however I found many similarities (and some interesting differences) from my other travels in Latin America. After doing a bit of homework and talking with a friend who had spent some time in the DR I think I made the right choice of where to go. During my first full day in the country I met a couple ... read more

For the last two years, my mother and I have traveled to Peurto Plata in the Dominican Republic. Although I hate staying in hotels, especially all inclusive.. that is where we have ended up for the last two years.. and we will again this March. The only reason that I am always so excited to go back is because I am so in love with the people and the country. We have been taken all around Peurto Plata by our good friend Andenson, (my future husband & my love at first sight victim. lol) and ever since then.. I have truly felt that Dominican is my second home. I really enjoy it there. Not only are the guys totally attractive.. but the country is just so unbelievably perfect. I love it! I can't wait to go ... read more
