    Thanks for the newbie advice. I am currently doing research for a trip to the DR, and everything that you said makes sense. I have been traveling and mongering in Asia for the past 9 years, with one trip to Costa Rica. Its getting harder for me to take month long trips, so hopefully the DR will work for me.

    I think it's fair for me to say that if the DR worked for me, it'll work for anyone ...

    And with 'the past 9 years' of mongering under your belt, you should know the playbook.

    I will say that the more Spanish you have, the better you'll get along in the DR. (Though I've been told it's more important to understand it well, than it is to speak it well.)

    Good luck and good hunting!

    Working my way to my first SEA trip, most likely the Angeles City, would love to hear some stories and pics

    Coming back for my 4th trip. Is Sosua still a party 24/7? Got people telling me it's quieted down. Say it ain't so. Classicos? CMP? Passions? PJ's restaurant?
