TRIP REPORT UPDATE
Alright, fellas!
I got a couple hours on this plane ride to type up a trip report from my experience of the beautiful Dominican Republic. So here it goes…
First and foremost, a HUGE shoutout to the gawd @VaGixxer for showing us the ropes while we were out there. Spent a few days with him & his boy and they allowed for the triangle offense to run seamlessly. Real cool dudes & I can say the trip wouldn't have been as good without them.
Now that I got that out the way, GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY… the women here are heaven sent. It's really hard to explain it to those who have never been to D.R., but once you come here, you can definitely
understand why some cats make numerous trips here every few months. (I can't vouch for the Western Union papis, though). It's gotta be something in the water and the mofongo ingredients. Glad we didn't do the whole resort thing or I would've thrown up knowing what I missed out on. The women in America do not compare in any category.
On that note, the food was excellent! From the food on the playa to the Jamaican dude's restaurant waving you down to try his Rum Punch & jerk chicken. If you don't like the food in Dominican Republic, there's no reason for you to have tastebuds or a passport. I think we ate mofongo every morning and drank at least a barrel worth of corona, presidente, rum & mamajuana.
As far as safety, I didn't feel the slightest amount of nervousness or danger out there (and I was these streets). That's not to say you shouldn't use the eyes in the back of your head and your street smarts! This is a 3rd world country and you can't walk the streets like this is the music video for The Pharcyde's "Drop". The girls are very touchy and will run yo' pockets faster than Marty McFly's shoelace self-tying system without you knowing. Any doubts, wear pockets with zippers or roll deep. Don't be too flashy or disrespect the locals! A simple "no, gracias" will go a long way. Most (if not all) of the locals are glad you're here so their businesses can stretch. Some don't even want anything from
you; just to ask if everything is okay.
Transportation-wise, we had a dope driver (thanks to VaGixxer) who was real cool. Got free drinks and top of the line service around Santo Domimgo and Sosua. Unless you're a veteran on Jet Moto for Playstation 1, I suggest you not to rent a motorcycle (or car) because dudes will swerve in and out of traffic recklessly and there's no respect for street signs or pedestrians.
As I try to touch all bases, I'll continue with the miscellaneous:
• Weather was excellent. Rained once for like 25 minutes.
• The nightlife is unforgettable. Once that sun barrel rolls under the horizon, it's on.
• Eat the mofongo (had to repeat that).
• Try to fly in to the closest airport from where you will be staying the majority of the trip!
• If you give a kid on the street some pesos, just be prepared for them to come back to you later. Yes, they're awake at 5am.
• One of my boys speaks Spanish, so I had no problem with the locals trying to talk crazy or translating my Fresh Prince pickup lines to the chicas.
• Life hack: The chicas love the morenos.
• The clubs/bars were dope during the NBA Finals.
• Let me repeat, the women here are heaven-sent!
Overall, the trip was beyond what I thought it would be. I will definitely be back before the year is over.
Any questions regarding my trip or if
you're planning one, just ask!
My reaction every second.
