LOL 2 very different countries, hard to compare really. Each have their pros and cons

But would your life in DR be as comfortable had you not lived and learnt from the rat race in the UK? Its not all bad eh? lol

Default I miss DR

Hi All,

I just came back from DR - and i am in love

Ok before you all start 'oh another who got sucked in by a Sankie' - i am in love with the country. I met some amazing friends and i feel so lucky for meeting them because even know i have returned we constantly email and talk to eachother . I travelled everywhere and I just couldnt believe how much i loved it there.

Any way all the above was beside the point - I am back in the UK now London to be exact and i am desperately searching for a club that plays bachata - something to make me feel like i am back in DR.

Please help.

Thanks

Thank you for your reply,

I know of bar salsa and i have been there a few times and they dont ply much bachata and it is really really hot in there - no air con i think.

I have tried to google but it is really hard to find anything.

The worst thing is all my friends here think i have gone mad and they are not really into latin music.

But thank you for the reply i guess i will keep on trying.
