Keeps getting lost in cyberspace!!
Keep in mind that if you are white/yellow/green/blue it is automatically assumed you are NOT Dominican, so you WILL be charged '
tourist' rates!
Ever been to Europe???
In Rome my husband and I were quoted US$400 for a hotel room ......until....PapaTony spoke to the clerk in a very good Roman dialect and told him he was crazy (
exact words were: "Are you crazy? Do we look like tourists!).
After a bit of negotiation we eventually paid US$120. for a five star hotel room!
I could give a thousand examples including the cost of a bouquet of flowers from a florist shop (not a street vendor) in Buenos Aires!!
ALL the world LOVES a tourist!!
