Jumbo has a nice selection of imported cheeses including quite a few American ones (no good Canadian cheddar tho'!)

Hi Nikke,

Looks like you are really enjoying yourself! As a fellow Canadian I am glad to hear it! I am thinking seriously about taking a year off and either travelling all over or renting an apartment in the DR for 6-12 months. Maybe a bit of both. That's why I wanted to know how you liked it!

I am coming there in a few weeks and will be having a good look as to whether I want to take the plunge or not! I can't wait to see the sunshine, it is pouring out here!!

Hi Nikke,

You bought a new camera, send pictures!

Glad you're settling in. The weather here is picking up, sunshine for the next 5 days 16-18 degrees (no comparison to where you're at).

Hope all is well and keep posting.

Audra

Lexi,

I'm glad I came. It's something that had always been in the back of my mind for years and finally after some planning I decided just to do it...I'd rather try it out here than spend the rest of my life wondering what it would've been like.

Why not go for it?

You're right! Life is too short to wonder! I am going to take a year off work, I just don't know whether I am going to rent a place in the DR for a while or just travel. I think I will know when I come down this time.

I'm glad you are enjoying it!
