Santo domingo.........only because in many ways it reminds a lot of los angeles (my hometown). its got the ocean, palm trees, and the nightlife. when i get to be a bit older i would definitely like something a little slower like santiago.........i like santiago a lot--i just wish it was closer to the beach.

I'm Not even going Vote since is not there : )

Cotui...

Small, but not too smal, beautiful country side, South: mountains with a lot of free fruits. East: Rio Yuna, beautiful fresh and clear water, Rice everwhere.
West more mountains, the Presa de Hatillo, just 10 minutes away, you can bring your boat , North: more Rice!!

in Between Sto Dgo and Santiago.

you can ask for more!!

oohhh!!!... and there is no Crimes like Santiago and Santo Domingo.


Listen To free Salsa, Merengue and Bachata -->> Elvismen Internet Radio!: Bachata, Merengue, and Salsa Radio, internet radio streaming

Peace!

Don Juan is on a distinguished road
Default Mi tierra natal.
There's a certain something about Santiago that I haven't felt anywhere else I've lived in or been to in all of my years. Peace and contentment come close but does not fully explain the sensation felt when I'm there. Everything seems so dreamy. I don't know.

For a calm, hassle-free small town; Jarabacoa gets my vote.

For a sleepy, picturesque village, nestle in the high mountains of the Cordillera; Manabao is the place to see and feel.
