    I recently went to DR about a Month ago and I would say my experience was splendid with the people. Coming from Toronto when I heard the renting price in DR I was like “Why should I even go back?”

    Tayo, I have to admit, after Anthony Bourdain, I rarely watch these kinds of videos all the way through. That's saying a lot coming from me. However, your presentation and your warm approach to the Dominican people transported me back to my own country, Puerto Rico. It's been ages since I flew a kite. Man, you really nailed this video, and I'm eagerly anticipating your next adventures. Thank you!

Los dominicanos tenemos cultura muy distinta ya que e estamos influéncianos por la cultura tradicional de la isla, la taína, y luego los españoles trajeron sus costumbres. La isla fue redoblada por habitantes de las Canarias y de ahí también viene la forma de nosotros hablar. Nosotros somos cristianos, usamos muchas palabras taínas y costumbres taínas, la comida etc. Los mismos descendientes de africanos están mezclados.
