      You need neither. It’s an adjustment for sure. But you can find rentable places for less than $300 dollar in great areas And $200 for areas less great.

      @@TommyBrysonlmao yeah ok good luck having your power go out every 5 minutes. Not to mention if you want to go out to eat in an even moderately ok restaraunt it’s like 15 dollars. Nevermind something upscale, it’s basically midsized U.S. prices. No thanks , plenty of other budget places that are safer, more culture, better food, etc .,

    I completely agree with all your points, I am from DR aswell and have studied in the USA for a while and is just not the same thing, sure there are nice areas in DR but the danger of driving, the literal risk of walking on the street, you have to think twice about getting the latest phone or a nice watch, the lack of consistent electricity and a long etc make it a not very desirable place, also it is very boring unless you live in the capital or punta cana as you mentioned, and the cost of living is high, the difference between the prices of the US and DR are not that big when we factor the low income if you are earning in Dominican Pesos. Thanks for your perspective.

      Same! I actually get bloated and sick here all the time here in the US and when I go in DR and the food quality for me is better. I have celiac and lactose intolerance. Not sure where he lives but all things considered food wise is its better almost at the same price I buy it here.

      Many Dominicans can be difficult, many think foreigners are gullable and ignirant. I would say, they are protected by Law enforcement in their country, if a Dominican pull the scams they do in America. The law would be in our side, to physically defend yourself and your property

    YOUR POTENTIAL COACHING/COUNSELING PROJECT:
    The TH-camrs that I am a member follower, Quazi and AliAbdoul both have professional, Ivy League backgrounds, in fact, Ali, was once a doctor.
    While I get value from following them, they don’t have the local community and expertise that you have demonstrated. You would reach an entirely different demographic and audience. More to consider……., if I had your experience of the states AND the Dominican Republic, I see a great opportunity to help the people.

    You also didn't mention that hospitals suck. You can't have anything nice or your a target. The only reason D.R. is awsomw because your Dollars are stronger than the Peso. It's a fun place to visit and to invest on Air BnB. But not to live. Only people that go live there is because they could not make it on their homeland.
