I've been out here in California since 2002 and lived in the LA area for 5 years and then in the SF bay area for 2 years. I think that I met about 10 Dominicans in all of that time; mostly NYC transplants. I've met more boricuas (which is fine since my father is boricua and my mother is Dominican; I was born in NYC!)
I feel everyone's pain...no merengue tipico...the only bachata they play out here is the new Urban Latino stuff from Aventura and Xtreme. It's cool but it ain't the same. Fortunately, I fly to NYC about 4-8 times/year and hang out in the Heights.
Don't even get me started on flying to RD from the West Coast; it's hard! You have to connect somewhere back East; there is an American flight to San Juan,
PR from LAX that you could use to hop over to RD but I think it's only on the weekend.
Pense en regresar a Nueva York pero creo que me voy a quedar aqui en California por mi carrera y por comodidad. Si regreso a Nueva York, se que no viviera como vivo aqui con mi auto, estacionamiento, casita, y el sol. La vida alla es muy estresante e intensa. Ya me acostumbre a los inviernos de aca. Evito regresar a NY desde enero hasta mayo. Imaginate! Me crie alla! Pense en mudarme a Miami...tal vez algun dia!
Bueno, voy a regresar a Los Angeles, CA y quiero saber exactamente a que se refieren con ???? la organizacion/grupo de dominicanos????
