As a Dominican born and frequent traveler to the DR, this man is probably the best source of information for expats I have come across. He is telling it like it is.

@Donkor640 9 ай бұрын

I’m coming as soon as my daughter graduates from high school next year! My military pension ain’t really enough for retirement in the States but I can live good down there on $5K a month and have money to fly back and forth regularly! Thanks for the good info.

@circa1993 2 ай бұрын

With $5K you will be goood in dominican republic you will probably have a rich lifestyle than the US 100% enjoy brother

@jacquelinem2873 4 ай бұрын

I’ve been living in the DR 3 years and he is 100% correct. The only point I will add is the location to live. There are other places, depending on what you are looking for. The central mountain region is very nice, more laid back and tranquil. Not much “tourist” places and nightlife, and costs even less.

Loved the video brother it was very informative. I loved Puerto Plata when I was there last month. I'll be back there in August deciding if I'm going to retire there in a few years. Appreciate you. Keep doing what you're doing.

Another informative video Greg with well presented opinions on the lifestyle, culture and preferred part of the country to live. I was told 10 years ago that on the north coast from Costambar up past Cabrera and Rio San Juan that there were between 45-50,000 expats. With the additional traffic on the roads now, gotta be many more than that these days. Agree with the service, and of all the spots to eat, particularly in Sosua, your place is top tier for customer service. Seldom going even 10 minutes without being asked by a staff member if everything is good. Back home now after a great visit, thanks for the hospitality. Hope to be back this summer.

good video.....been watching your content since the beginning....your correct about the north coast being expat friendly but santo domingo is the most modern city, with all the services (food, clubs, social life, theater etc) that go with that..... am a retired dominican fluent in spanish/cultural..... going to the north coast for me seems too touristy( i prefer to be around mostly domininicans, as life becomes easier/cheaper/access to the best non pro woman:) so i choose to stay away, unless am visiting samana....but to each his own......
