What, is this the new "Welcome newbies" thread???

Glad to see all you new guys.

For those of you that are "not new to mongering, but new here", how about writing up some of your experiences?

[eldorob]

right to make a fool of himself...
even up to and including PEEING while spinning in a circle in the middle of the street, in front of Classicos while the cops just stare in total disbelief.

We are long overdue for a visit by him.

Hi Dave,
welcomee to ISOC

[Hank Daman]

Finally making my virgin trip to Sosua on June 2 until June 12. A newbie to the DR. but nearly fluent in Spanish (fluent to those who don't know better ) and a vet of CR, Peru, Nicaragua, Colombia, Mexico and the PI and LOS.

Mongering preference for TNLs- love to dance, so it sounds like Classicos might be a winner for me.

Mid 40s, and would to hang out with some expereinced DR mongers; perhaps I can provide info on other places

Welcome to the fold.

[Tonto4]

Welcome. You'll have plenty opportunities to speak spanish and dance. Thats for sure!

Welcome to a 'real' monger board, newbie! A little late to the Sosua party, but better late than never. Actually, things haven't really changed a whole lot since my virgin trip in '08 - a little gentrification and some additions here and there, but otherwise pretty much the same. Wish I could wing with you and show you the ropes, but saving up for my first to Asia later in the year. Anyways, knowing you, I'm sure you'll do fine...

GR-great to see you here my friend. Where in Asia are you going? I will be in LOS August 10-28 (more or less)...Would love to see you there. Better late than never- my travels take me in directions that I can not always predict...Send me a PM here or you know where- I have a PI and Indonesia trip in store besides LOS.....

Welcome to ISOC, Hank. I'm sure you will be adding some excellent contributions.

I didn't realize you were still in your mid-40s.

[colombialover]

Haven't been here in a while. Thinking of heading back to DR and wanted to get updated. Nice to be back.

[Hank Daman]

I am planning on going to brazil and i would like to knowif anyone can give a compare contrast between sosua vs Rio.

[No Worries]

Best advice I can give you! Brings LOTS and LOTS of money! Quadruple whatever your budget is for your Sosua trips and then bring another thousand on top of that! It costs me about 2300 bucks just for plane tickets and my apartment stay for a 10 day trip. I am out $2,300 dollars before I even touch land!! That doesnt include any girls, food, taxis, nothing!! $2,300 dollars is my entire budget for a 10 day trip to Sosua, airfar, hotel, chicas and food!

And for the Quadruple money was the pussy 4 times tighter, the women 4 times hotter, the BBBJ 4 times better? Just saying
