Brother, you're right on cue with your comments, and your analysis is very easy to digest and understand; very articulate. Keep it up and congrats.
I really appreciate this feedback. Thank you💪🏾🙏🏾
Santo Domingo is a combination of New York, Miami and a bit of New Orleans thrown in (using Zona Colonial in this respect) When I first came to the DR, I was apprehensive about visiting the city, but now, no trip is complete without SD.
I like that analogy👍🏾
Yeap same here brothers
Santo Domingo este is where my wife and I stay. I don't even drive, sir. It's pure madness, in my opinion. My wife drive or her cousin. Enjoy every time I come home.
Once you're here long enough, the "pure madness" turns into "organized chaos".
I’m 🇩🇴 I won’t drive there, I don’t have those driving skills to be able to drive there.

GREAT VIDEO BRO, I AM DOMINICAN BUT LIVE IN LONG ISLAND, NY. I MISS MY COUNTRY A LOT BUT LOVE TO SEE A BROTHER LIKING MY COUNTRY AND TALKING ABOUT IT SO WELL, THANKS, WELL APPRECIATED.
Thank you bro. I appreciate it.
Uncle Jay you are a natural podcaster! Ankh-ASE!
Yesiiir, i appreciate that.
You got me thinking about moving to Santo Domingo right now. Very informative, Great video. Thank you!
You're welcome.
Santo Domingo Este is where I stay when I come there. I love the Malacon over there.
Very true Jay, I get that all the time people really don't understand how large the island is!
Love the videos. This breakdown is thorough, thoughtful and insightful. You know your stuff!
Thanks fam. I appreciate that!
Most of the Dominicans in Philly and the suburbs of Philly are from Santiago but York and Allentown Dominicans are from Santo Domingo by way of New York City
Never knew that. Good info. Thanks for sharing this.
I’m from Allentown we have a lot of Dominicans from Santiago as well.
@@JayAbroad The ones from NY alost all r from el Cibao.
Literally at the airport heading to SD now as I watch this lol
Yessiiir, Enjoy yourself bro.
Thanks man, this was very helpful..
No problem! Glad it was helpful.
Salute my brother. You gave out some good information
Yessiiirr, I appreciate that. Coming to SD can be overwhelming if you have zero information
On point brother Very true
Thanks 👍🏾
My Man, Great Information on Santo Domingo!!
Thanks, I appreciate it!💪🏾
I’ve been to most of the neighborhoods you mentioned. Zona Colonial was my first stop. Then a few places on the Malecon in Disrito Nacional. Piantini, Bella Vista, all over Este, San Isidro, Los Tres Ojos and lastly Norte. Love Avenida Venezuela and the Malecon on Avenida Espana
Ave Espana be on 🔥.. lol!
I visited Santo Domingo for 20 days colonial zona love it
Another great video my brother. Here to support another brother living in Santo Domingo
Yessir...Much appreciated bro💪🏾
Blessing enjoy life is a gift from God.❤
Excellent job...I can't wait to get back and check those areas out. I'm usually in Santiago
Thanks 👍🏾
James y Norberis. You guys make it so tempting. I have to come see Santo Domingo for sure on my next visit even if wifey don’t want to come. Thanks for the video James. 👍👍👍
Dee, you have to check it out. I know it's probably not your speed but definitely worth experience.
Great breakdown of the amenities.
Thanks👍🏾
thanks for the video
You're welcome
Bravo Jay! I have been waiting for you to create your own podcast station! And thanks for sharing this very informative and enlightening content! I'm J'AR De AphroOne of Chicago, IL, USA! Planning on visiting you this Fall after I graduate from technical college in December 2024!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video my friend!! We are very happy to see you enjoying our country. I live in Santo Domingo Oeste, Pedro Brand.
As you said, a lot of things are going on at this area. Lots of residential and middle class apartments being built. I grew up here and I can tell you that we used to be very few, now there’s A LOT of people on this side!
Thanks bro. I want to start visiting that area more often. Is there a mall over that way. I heard it was one called Occidental or something? What are some nice areas or bars, cigar lounges in that area?
Ive had the pleasure of visiting for ond day visiting some of the malls u mentioned great will surely have a longer stay when next i visit as i stayed in Puerto plata
Yessiiirr coming to Santo Domingo for a day or 3 won't work, its too much to take in...you need at least a 2weeks if not a month to get a real feel of the capital.
Glad you made this vid. Though my stomping ground is in the north, i'm cognizant of distance between 2 points in DR. Most people think its the size of Giuliani's Island with little to no amenities. 1 thing mentioned thats true was, many people in the northern US have relatives in the south (myself included). Mom & dad and all aunts, uncles and grands are from NC.
Thank you so much for making this video. I plan to visit SD in 2 months, and I will definitely be using this video as a reference!
You're welcome. Glad it was helpful!
Definitely on point thanks again for encouraging those tourists to visit more than just zona colonial I lived in ensanche Ozama and definitely enjoyed my time in Santo Domingo este before I moved out of the city…great video keep up the good work
Yessiiirr thanks.
Good point Jay, you said a person could get to know the lay of the land of Puerto Plata and other locations in the Dominican Republic in a day or two. I live in Puerto Plata and travel to Santo Domingo frequently and I can say there is NO WAY you can learn Santo Domingo in a day or two from Villa Meja to Gazcue just raveling alone would take more than two days not to mention stopping at various sites to familiarize yourself along the way would take many trips. The other challenge is it is so easy to get stuck in your favorite part of the city like Bella Vista and neglect Piantini right down the street. For your Santo Domingo is #1 for me it's #2...LOL!
And you're right it's really easy to get stuck in your favorite part of the city even the next neighborhood is 10 minutes away.
I shared this video with friends and family in the State's and Canada.
Thank you. I appreciate it🙏🏾
Nice video. Great coverage. A must Share.
Bien hecho...felicidades 🎉
Thanks fam🙏🏾
Brother , your Spanish is on point. My respect 🫡
Thanks, bro. Much appreciated
Excellent video 👍
Thanks bro!
Always good stuff bro. Got me playing things back in my mind when I use to live there. Me and my wife are on our way back there to live again.
Yessiiirr, the good thing is you are on your way back🙏🏾
@@JayAbroad yes trying to hurry and get out of the matrix before they find Zion 😂😂😂
😅🤣
Nice Summary. Santo Domingo is by far my favorite city on the island. Nearly lived in Gazcue. But went to beach town instead, but staying close to La Capital. 👍 Enlightening Jay.
Thanks 👍🏾
Thank you brotha..on point. I am thinking about moving there. I visited 3x last year seeing a beautiful woman and love the respect and culture and positive atmosphere of many places Yoyce mentioned. Hope to see you in Santo Domingo Pantini area etc
Yessiiir, let me know next time you are in town.
Thanks for the insight, Jay. I like your shirt. I'm a Navy Veteran. HOOYAH!
I was given this shirt by the veterans clinic here in Santo Domingo. I didn't serve so I hope it's ok wear😅
@@JayAbroad No problem at all. We all appreciate the support. 💯
New to your channel and keep providing great content.
No doubt. Thanks for the support.
Bruhhh my first time ever shopping at a Carrefour was in Abu Dhabi on my 2nd navy deployment, basically is like a walmart or target. Im also a fellow Alabama man, so watching these videos, it's quite cool to see how you relate to the surroundings there and I hope I will be able to travel there sometime soon.
Yessiiirr, I appreciate that fam. You should definitely come check out the country when you can.
Dude! You know more about Santo Domingo than I do, and I was born and raised there… 😂😂😂 I have said that “el polígono central” looks like Miami. I can’t wait to be back home… thanks for your videos!
lol...yeah man I get around the city a lot. You're welcome
Great video 📹 👍 👏 👌 🙌
Thank you 👍
San Isidro was the place we stayed. Overall it was nice , we were right next to the military airbase so sometimes we would hear planes flying real close and it felt like they would land on our roof I could not fly my drone...that area looked like it was up and coming. You could see lot of construction, the smart fit gym and bravo, and on the other side what looked like a typical Dominican neighborhood.
Yes this area is developing. The new construction project out there are pretty reasonable.
@@JayAbroad yeah but in the event we go there e wave to be in Mirador sur or Bella Vista, near downtown center. We spent a few days there and we enjoyed it. We did not need to order a Uber
Santo domingo este Right now the city center is undergoing a similar transformation, there is a sector that is similar to piantini [alma rosa 1] And even in the future it will be much better, with much taller towers up to 100 meters high, this real estate development with ambitious towers is not available anywhere else in the city.
But it's all about development
Yep, I'm aware. Being better than Piantini is a stretch but let's see. I like the Alma Rosa area.
My hood ❤
James!!! Back in 1979!!! My Mom and Dad, Drove from Mauviila , Mobile Alabama,Too my Family's House on My Grandfather's side. Too HAMPTON VIRGINIA!!! Too Langley Air Force Base!!! Back when Mel Showers!! On W.K.R.G!!! I KNOW WHY YOU LIKE THAT AREA BECAUSE IT'S ALMOST AMERICAN, BUT IN A DIFFERENT PARTOF TOWN! !! IT'S LIKE BEL-AIR Y AND SPRINGHILL!!!
😅💪🏾
❤🎉 Ur reppin' correctly Sir Santiago 😂. This video renewed my ❤ for Santo Domingo. I never hear much about Los Arroyos 1 or 2 but it seems ideal for me. I'll check it out when I get back home 😢 Extraño mucho a RD
Fa sho. When are you back in the country?
@JayAbroad June or July. Was there for Super bowl
In Santo Domingo or Sosua?
@@JayAbroad I only go to Sosua (1 day) to watch the Super Bowl at Flip Flops 😆 Santo Domingo and Punta Cana to see my dentist
Wow, you know the country better than I do, I'm born and raised, I couldn't have done a better breakdown, I'm from Santo Domingo Oeste, Costa Azul, is around KM12 but on the side of the ocean. Things are way different today than they were 25 years ago and I say it because that is really not a long time compared to the growth of other countries I've been to.
Lol, yes I love the DR. Things have changed a lot. Yes, it's been slow but you will start to see rapid growth over the next 10 years. It's the fast growing economy in Latin America. I've been here 3 years and can see massive improvements
Villa Mella no. Most are from Sabana Perdida. Or from the east and north of the country.
Ayoo no cap you almost Dominican yourself fam you know a lot of places hollyyy and that’s good I’m from Los Mina and you know La Venezuela be popping like crazy I used to own a apt there but not anymore more to crazy
Lol..yeah it's wild over there.
Juan Dolio in a few weeks. I'll probably come into SD for a few nights of roof top chill spots with Presidente and the city views
I like Juan Dolio too. I rather there than Boca Chica.
@@JayAbroadI've been hearing that... Thinking about renting a car for my drives into Santo Domingo and other places I'm interested in visiting. I've seen the traffic patterns and driving there... The Uber normally runs about $40 from Santo Domingo, thus I'm thinking about just renting a car at SDQ. I also just found out about Jima Falls too. I'll be there DR for 10 days. What are your thoughts on renting a car? Not just the cost difference, but actually the art of driving there especially in Santo Domingo. Not really concerned about the highways between cities.
Dial Bar definitely a top tier bar in Santo Domingo. I must say you know your stuff in the capital.
Yessiiirr. Dial Bar be on 🔥. Thanks bro 💪🏾
RVA in the house
Man you sell DR better than Norberis 😅. I'm going to start planníng me a trip for later this year. Already got a trip to Colombia planned in a few weeks or I'd book a flight there now. Good info fam 🤙🏾
I'm going to make sure she doesn't see thus comment.. lol! Thanks bro, definitely when you get a chance check it out.
Thanks again for your information. I found a place to land in Santo Domingo Este at the no frills Tropical Island ApartHotel for $10 a night. What will count is having free Wi-Fi to work! I'll upgrade my accommodations as the commissions come.
Have you been to Santo Domingo before? I think I know that spot.
@@JayAbroadyes, 2 years ago, i stayed in El Conde. I can't afford to land there for a month or more, this trip. So, I'll settle for a no-frills spot until I start making some cash. Okay area?
Making an analogy, Distrito Nacional is for Santo Domingo what is Manhattan for NYC, Distrito Nacional is the seat od DR goverment, DN has the Palacio Nacional ( president) National Congress, Supreme Court,all goverment departments, agencies, embassies,etc
Well said, couldn't have said it better👌🏾
Agree with you 99%. I'd switch oeste and Norte though 😅 because I know a person in oeste and never hungout in Norte. I have plenty of friends in este, in the San Isidro area. I just wish they would extend the metro to the airport. It would make travel much easier to Districto Nacional. Also, it would prevent people from getting scammed by the Uber drivers on the late flights that come in.
Lol...I feel ya! I agree about the airport that would be nice if they extended out there.
That's already in the plans for development. There will be a metro line connecting the airport to the center of city prob in the next 5 yrs..
100% bro I was for sure overwhelmed I was in in domincain 3 times prior before going to santo
Domingo the moment I got off see security at the bus stop with shot guns Ubers with baseball bats cages over homes and got the restaurant and couldn’t even order food because I didn’t speak the language I literally packed my bags and went back to sosua in less than 24 hours 😂 I went back a few months later this time I actually stayed for the full time but can’t say I left the apartment 😢 regret it so much now I’m gonna learn Spanish and give my self a actually trip to Santo Domingo
I was paranoid my phone was gonna get stolen or die and I wouldn’t be able to get back to my air b&b where my passport was plus none of my air b&b had safes and I didn’t really trust the hosts to just leave it in the rooms but still no excuses
Yessiirr, I know. I felt the same way when I first came. I was like Punta Cana is much simpler and easy to maneuver. Once I learn the city I wouldn't want to live no other city at the moment.
I’ve been to DR three times so far. My first time was Punta Cana, second and third times in Santo Domingo, Zona Colonial. On my last visit in January I decided to make Santo Domingo my second home. If I could move there now I wouldn’t hesitate. Do you have any advice on areas such as Puerto Plata and Samana? I’m thinking about exploring those areas next. As much as I love Santo Domingo, if I move to DR I want to be close to a beach. I did go to Boca Chica for a day. Beautiful but not really a beach beach. Currently live in NYC born and raised. I’m ready to be out!
I'm not really a fan of Puerto Plata but I really like Samana. It's one of my favorite cities here. I like the laid back vibe to it. Puerto Plata has to many tourist in my opinion but many people like it. It's just not for me.
Easy to understand, I meant to say 😂
Dont forget Villa Juana, Gualey, los minas, etc
Yep, I know I was going to miss some. All three a pretty popular. Thanks for adding that.
@@JayAbroad BTW, your Spanish pronunciation is pretty good 👍🏿 👌🏾
I was trying my best😅
Jay, will be in town in a few weeks. I want to hit you up while I'm in town.
Send me an email at iamjayabroad@gmail.com
@@JayAbroad will do
I visited in 2015 for 20 days are were pleased must come back using coper airlines from Panama I find it's cheaper living there but I made one mistake a. Drunk the water
Oh no....you can't drink the water😅
What, up Bro. Dr department of tourism shelling any out compensation for the love you give Santo Domingo !
Not yet, but hopefully they realize my work🤣😂
Love SD, been there like six times. I'll be there Friday for about a week. Looking for a cigar lounge with a good atmosphere. I've been to fuente and the cabinet, what are some others. I'm staying near Bell vista.
There's 2 that I go to in Bella Vista, Camilu & Fusion. Both have great atmospheres. The only thing I don't like about Fusion is it's expensive. Their cigars are really expensive compared to other cigar bars. So I usually buy from another place and go there to smoke and enjoy the atmosphere.
I went to Los Patos yesterday and hour west of Barahona its a four drive from SD but definitely worth it
@@Ahhhnope657 ill have to check that area out. Barahona is definitely on my list to go.
What is your favorite Cigar store/ lounge? I have visited a few and the selection hasn't always been very large. You seem like a cigar connoisseur so I'm curious your opinion or if you plan on a video covering soon.
I like Arturo Fuentes in terms of cigar lounge and I also like Arturo Fuentes cigars. But Cigar Cabinet has the best Cigar selection so far that I've seen here in Santo Domingo. I'm an amateur when it comes to cigars but I enjoy smoking them. I will do plan on doing a video on cigars.
@@JayAbroad Thanks for the guidance! I’ll check them out next time im in Santo Domingo. I hope to more there later this year probably to Este.
Actually, the capital of the country is only the national district, the rest are municipios of the santo domingo province (not santo domingo the city, that is the national district, but the province).they even have their own government, and capital of the santo domingo province is santo domingo este city.
DR capital = santo domingo de Guzmán in the national district area
Santo Domingo province capital= santo domingo este
Ahhhh... ok,🤔
I'll be landing at SDQ in a couple weeks. Been gathering info on the country for months and now I'm ready to put boots on the ground.
Yessiiirr, will you be staying in Santo Domingo?
@@JayAbroad Yeah, in Piantini at the Holiday Inn there. Gotta hit Blue Mall sir. I've heard good things. Thanks for the intel btw. Ima try to check out a few places you mentioned like Norte and possibly Este. Trying to avoid touristy areas and gringo prices
Ok, that's a good location. Was just at that Holiday inn for a conference. Blue Mall is nice but Agora Mall is better and it's right down the street from the Holoday Inn. Blue Mall is cool, lot of expensive stores very upscale. Are you planning to go with someone to Norte and Este?
@@JayAbroad I learned long ago to heed advice from someone who knows more so Agora it is. Thanks.
But yeah, my uncle will he traveling with me. He has zero spanish while mine is borderline conversational. That said we'll likely keep it tight by homebasing in Piantini, then hitting Norte/Cristo Rey for the immersion.
Depending on feel, we might head out toward Este and Boca Chica if time/traffic allows. Didn't realize how sprawling this city actually is.
it looks like NY to me..
Definitely got that feel..
Jay great video, do you recommend to rent a car or use public transportation?
It just depends on what your itinerary will look like while you're here. Also, if you are ok driving here. Uber is really in expensive here too.
Hey Jay really enjoy your channel man! I gotta quick question for you. Im 23 and will be traveling solo in a few weeks to make my 2nd trip to the DR. My first stop is Sosua but Im thinking about checking out Santo Domingo after since I've heard so many good things about it. Do you think Santo Dominigo would be safe for a dude my age to be walking around solo? I plan on staying in downtown Zona colonial area and not venturing out of that.
Sosua is trash man, go to Caberete instead (the next town over). And if you're going to Santo Domingo, def stay in Zona Colonial if you're traveling solo, don't recommend venturing out.
@@DCampusano1 for cabarete though I thought they don’t allow girls to come over? When I was looking at air bnbs for cabarete they seemed very family oriented and didn’t allow any chicas working girls to come over
@TLOPassportBro I personally think it's safe to walk around in certain areas. Zona Colonial, Gazcue, along the Malecon, Piantini, Naco, Bella Vista are all areas that are cool to walk for first time travelers. As I mentioned in this video it's a big city and can be overwhelming for people who don't understand it. I know many guys come here alone and have no issues.
@@JayAbroad Awesome I'll look into those areas! Thanks!
Shout-out from a Dominican (Bonao) living in Mobile, AL. It's Mobile where you're from? Thanks for your great vid.
Wow, what are you doing in Mobile, when Bonao is beautiful😅? Yes I'm from Mobile. What area in Mobile are you in?
@@JayAbroad West Mobile. 20 years here working for the Shipbuilding industry in beautiful Pascagoula, MS. Can't wait to join you in Sto Dgo. Glad you're enjoying DR.
Ok, of course I know that area out that way. And in know those shipyards. At least the one in Mobile is it Ingalls? I know you ready to come back home😅
@@JayAbroad yes, Ingalls.
Villa mella the best.
I have to low key admit...I like Villa Mella. I should have mentioned it but I live there for a year back in 2015. I actually enjoyed it. It's noisy but it was cool.
Manoguayabo is the birthplace of former Dominican pitcher and Hall of famer Pedro Martinez, Haina is the birthplace of also Hall of famer David Ortiz.
Didn't know any of this. Thanks for sharing it🙏🏾
I always assumed that Haina was in San Cristobal and not Santo Domingo..
@@DCampusano1You are right, the Big Papi born in Santo Domingo but it looks he grew up in Haina, San Cristóbal Province
@@DCampusano1 San Cristóbal, Haina, Santo Domingo Oeste and the westernmost part of Distrito National have grown so much that for all intents and purposes they are the same city. While technically Haina belongs to San Cristobal, it's way faster and closer getting from Haina to Distrito National than from Haina to San Cristóbal Downtown.
@@Apollux True, makes sense.
What it is Jay, love your vids bro.. Hey, where would be some good places to live for under 2k all in, if I wanted to be close to a beach (within 20 mins), and still get some city night life action. I'm not a club person per say, but do like the bars, restaurants, live music etc., but when I go home, i like a little more peaceful environment. Any places you know come close ?
Thanks bro. I would probably say Punta Cana, Puerto Plata, Las Terrenas, or Samana.
@@JayAbroad If it were your choice, I'm sure you would go with Samana, right? LOL
@@craighawkins3885 Exactly, thats my 3rd favorite city here, behind SD and Santiago. Samana is nice.
Do the bar or lounges play American music?
Not to my knowledge. Or at least the ones I go to.
SANTO Domingo is 1058 squar miles,LA us only,580, Santo Domingo is big.I luve in Costanza 40000 propke,very pretty,and it can get snow,in the winter
J, Haina is a city in the province of San Cristobal. Do not worry about insulting them. No offense intended, but it is a rough area (Baseball player David Ortiz is from there as well as many others). Hainians are known for violating environmental policies and polluting the environment.
Yessiiirr remember there is a small area in Santo Domingo that they call Haina too near the port. That's the one I'm referring to in this video. But I'm aware of Bajos De Haina in San Cristobal
@@JayAbroad That is the one.
Boss man, qick question: Did you say dail bar
Yesssir, Dial Bar and Lounge
How do you spell that first bar you mentioned?
Dial Bar in Santo Domingo Este
I've been wanting to hit up Santo Domingo for a while. I'm thinking about a week long trip. I kind of want to hit that infamous town on the north coast for a few days then head back to Santo Domingo. What do you think about a tourist renting a car and driving around the island?
To me it's perfectly safe to drive here on the island. I just don't recommend driving at night from city to city. Other than that the road from Santo Domingo to Sosua is fine
@@JayAbroad That's all that I needed to hear. Thanks for taking time to respond to my question, and thank you for putting this channel together.
Yessiiirr, no problem. Enjoy yourself.
any way you can timestamp your videos? so we can hit the bullet points, that interest us. just a suggestion. appreciate the content.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Am I correct in saying that Santo Domingo Este is a little, calmer than Districo Nacional?
I think that's a fair assessment.
Yo do you consider Boca Chica a tourist spot for Americans? I ve been there 3 times and only met Americans once. There was some Asian and i guess Europeans.
Yes, I do. Definitely a lot of Europeans there too.
Brother u living great keep going beautiful wife and daughter god bless yall I cant wait to come to DR
Thanks bro, I appreciate that.
Can you compare the differences living in Punta Cana and Santo Domingo ?
I have a video coming where I talk a little bit about that. Maybe I'll do one in more detail.
@@JayAbroad awesome
Hey brother I want to know if I can ask you a few questions
1. If my finance has a tourist Visa can we get married here in the United States? I know you’re not a immigration lawyer but if you know one can you send me their information
2. I plan on moving there and I love watching your videos
Meaning your wife is Dominican and has the ability to travel to the US on her tourist visa and you want to marry her in the US? If that's the question of course you can.
whats thefirst step to renting an apartment there.
Getting a Dominican cosigner. Most owners I know require a Dominican cosigner
Hey Jay, I really wanna know what type of remote jobs would work for me to afford to live in DR long term?
What are your skill sets?
@@JayAbroad i'm currently in the process of doing cybersecurity.
@jjtiojohn12 once you get that skill set you should be able to find work online. That's a very needed skill.
@JayAbroad oh yeah I meant to ask you what's the process of finding an apartment in DR? What the best sites you can go to to find an apartment in Santo domingo?
Can I ask what part of Santo Domingo a particular address is located. Just curious about what I should expect and how far things are going to be from my location
Yes, you can ask...
Can you order your wife DM me
Sorry, I just say what my message translated to. I meant to say could you or your wife DM me. I have a few questions
You can email me if you have a question to iamjayabroad@gmail.com
You didn’t mention capotillo la 42 and la zurza
Yep, i knew I'd forget some. Way too many neighborhoods to name. Thanks for mentioning them.
Lol nobody will go from the US to live there
@@AngelicaEstherxo buenoo, nobody is saying that they will want to live there, just mentioning neighborhoods.
Trash
@AngelicaEstherxo hence why I didn't mention them. No hood or barrio on this earth interest me enough to the point where I want to mention them. I'm way past that in my life.
Hey just watched your video… I’m from Mobile as well… how do I p.m. you?
You can send me an email at iamjayabroad@gmail.com
How do I get in touch with you if I decide to visit SD while I'm in DR?
I may fly into that area and settle for a week before I move on to another destination...
You can message me on IG @iamjayabroad

@@JayAbroad Bet. 🤝🏾
Yo bro. I'm trying to visit dominican republic for the first time. I'm looking for good drinks, good, food, and to mingle with the people. I don't speak alot of Spanish. Where do you recommend I go first?
Depending on what you looking for. Those things you named can be found anywhere on the island. Do you like the beach life, city life, rural life, eco life, etc.
@JayAbroad I believe when I get there 1st is the beach. Then 2ndI wouldn't mind a little night life.
Santo Domingo has the best nightlife on the island.
Hello Im traveling to Santo Domingo this Friday can you tell me about the area with Hotel Catalonia please?
What would you like know?
@@JayAbroad Is the area I'm going to be in dangerous? What outdoor activities are there in Santo Domingo being that is it the Capitol city?
@marierobinson5458 No, that area is not dangerous. It's located on the Malecon. It's about 5 minutes from the main tourist area Zona Colonial it always something going on there especially on weekends. You can walk along the Malecon either direction and it's safe. Sometimes there are things going on there too. Not sure what you mean exactly by outdoor activities. What are some things you're into or want to do and I can probably point you in the right direction.
@@JayAbroad First off let me say thank you so much for responding and being so helpful. As I've been a little nervous 😞 but as far as outdoor activities I was thinking atv, snorkeling, dolphins 😁 etc and again thank you for your time and info 🙏🏽
@marierobinson5458 You're welcome. Nothing to be nervous about. You will not find any of those things in Santo Domingo...lol! Santo Domingo is like the NYC of Dominican Republic. It's all city. To do those things you will need to go to Punta Cana or Puerto Plata. You can possibly find day trips that will take you from Santo Domingo to those places to experience it but none of those activities are in Santo Domimgo.
Hola amor. I would love to meet you.
Send me a message on my Instagram @iamjayabroad

Where do most of the beautiful ladies be??
All over the island, seriously🙌🏾
Go to Santiago 8 out of 10 women look like models 😌
Wait until they get that Superdome it's really going to come together folk aren't paying attention to what's going on
A NBA team and NFl team would be nice
Have you heard plans of a dome here?
