      safety and weather in july-august

      Dominican Republic 13 hours ago

      hey guys,

      im trying to find an exciting and cheap destination for this summer for about 3 weeks and i am considering the dominican republic.

      1. what's the weather like during the summer? ive read that it's monsoon season, so does that mean that it will be too rainy to enjoy it or is it still nice?

      2. how is it for a solo woman to backpack there? I've read that men can be very flirty. Any experiences?

      Thanks,
      Vicki :)

    • A week in SD

      Santo Domingo May 27, 2013 at 8:24 PM

      I am going alone in June to SD just to practice Spanish and meet some people. I want to lie on the beach but don't want to travel far from the city. I am thinking of staying at Buca Chica for 3 days and then to Zona Colonal for another 3 nights. Does that sound good? Any idea of good reasonable hotels ($80 max) that you recommend? I will arrive 11:30 pm, what's the best and cheapest way to make it to the hotel? I heard that it costs less thatn $5 for taxi from one side of town to the other. Why is it more expensive from the airport to the city? IS it safe to meet people on the street and make friends or there is a lot of scam people trying to get into your pocket?
      Also, if I book in all inclusive hotel, does that mean three meal and drinks (Dominican food)?
      Thanks for the help in advance.

      I will be visiting my daughter, a student at Pontificia Catolica Universidad de Madre y Maestra, at the end of April. I am looking for inexpensive lodging near there. I cannot seem to find anything but huge, expensive resort like hotels in Santiago. Can anyone help me with information about more reasonable lodging? It only needs to be clean and simple.

      What to do

      by wardy51 Online Now May 20, 2006 at 5:23 AM

      I am planning a 3 night trip to northern Spain in October flying in to SANTIAGO DE LOS CABALLEROS or Santander . Is there enough to do in this area or can anyone suggest the number of nights to stay or where else to go for a night. Can anyone recommend any scenic walks (not the full pilgrim sketch) of about 2 hours or so with the possibility of some wild life. Thanks Geoff

      Studying Spanish in Santiago de los Caballeros

      by Nancybelle Online Now Mar 29, 2004 at 8:40 AM

      This will be my last query on this topic--I promise!! Does ANYONE know if the PUCMM offers classes in Spanish to foreigners on a short-term basis? I am having difficulty locating a place where I can arrange for classes in Spanish for a few weeks next fall. On their website I can't access anything about this topic. What about "Program CIEE--PUCMM?" Berlitz Institute, I've heard, offers Spanish as well as French, but I can't find any address for them. I am so desperate now I would be thrilled to pay a tutor for help. Does anyone know of a university grad student/dept., etc. that offers this service? Thanks so much!
