IN PUERTO PLATA, R. D.
Dominican Experience, to stay in the all-inclusive hotels in Playa Dorada would be to miss the real Dominican Republic.

You will love the people and the country when you get to see the real lifestyle but most of the hotel tours don't show you the real Dominican Republic.
Most hotels have become all-inclusive and as a result the people staying there only get to see other tourists. The hotels tell the tourists that it is not safe to go outside the hotel complex at night and only with tours in the day time. THIS IS NOT SO!!! As for safety, it has been my experience, it is entirely safe. Although there are occasions where single men and women have had a member of the opsite sex try to pick them up, love that "Latin" culture. Or a taxi driver has taken a customer for a few extra pesos.
These incidents have been very few in number, and violent crime is much less than back in downtown Toronto.

65. CULTURE
an interesting culture. This site is so beautiful at night it lights up a big crossin the sky, it could be seen only in some parts of the dominican republic.
http://mbhs.bergtraum.k12.ny.us/~g7365/culture.html
MY EXPERIENCE IN MY DOMINICAN CULTURE
Although I was born in Brooklyn, New York I still feel as if I am more Domincan than I am American. My feeling toward this, is probably because I have been around Dominicans most of my life.
The first thing I want to talk about is how the Dominican's greet you when you arrive at the airport in Dominican Republic. I think that our greeting is a very unique one, because we greet by giving every adult a small amount of Dominican Republic's best liquor. This liquor is a generation to generation rum called "BRUGAL" or maybe they will give "BARCELON."
The Picture at the bottom is the "FARO de COLON"
Some of the sites we have is the "FARO de COLON" . This site is mostly about Christopher Columbus it has all of his voyages all in different rooms. It also has alot of other different things to see and learn about. This place is a very interesting site to visit, especially if you need to learn about an interesting culture. This site is so beautiful at night it lights up a big cross in the sky, it could be seen only in some parts of the Dominican Republic. For instance, you could see it in the Dominican Republic's capital Santo Domingo. It looks so beautiful and interesting.
The Picture at the bottom is "CASA de CAMPO"
Another beautiful site is "CASA de CAMPO" , this site is located, in the "Romana". In this site there are little houses that are rented to the tourists. Here in this beautiful tourists place alot of famous people go to visit or even get married. For instance "Michael Jackson" came to this place to get married with "Lisa Marie Presley". This must of had been the nicest wedding. This site has everything you want to do during your summer vacation or anytime you want to go visit the Dominican Republic. One of the best things I liked about this site was seeing the people go horse back riding and all of the other different things you could think of doing on a summer vacation or on any vacation you might take in this site.

In such a way, Dominicans have been disconnected from their African, their indigenous, and their mixed Afro-Mestizo Criollo (Creole) ancestry and cultural heritage, even though it is these ancestries and heritages which mark Dominicans with the significant emblems of their contemporary identity.

Linguistic Features The Dominican Republic often uses its indigenous name Quisqueya as a common referent. Dominicans like to call themselves " Quisqueyanos "; the name even appears in the first words of the Dominican national anthem: "Quisqueyanos valientes..." [11]

Even if you are not a traveller and you do decide to purchase the all-inclusive package, you will nevertheless find the book of interest, especially if you are planning some side trips once you arrive at your destination.

You're only limited by your imagination, and AFS opens up a world of adventure by offering exchange programs in over 50 countries. AFS programs present a variety of choices, allowing nearly 10,000 participants annually to adjust program focus according to their individual needs.
The Year Program , far and away AFS's most popular option, is a year-long educational exploration of another country's culture. The AFS Year Program student lives with a host family, attends a local school and becomes involved in community activities. Students completely immerse themselves in another culture by nurturing relationships with the local community, speaking the local language and taking part in their daily routines. Host school attendance is required, not optional, for Year Program participants.
The Semester Program lasts about six months over the course of an academic school semester. Like the Year Program, students stay with host families, attend local schools and take part in community activities. Host school attendance is required, not optional, for Semester Program participants.
The Intensive Program is a shorter-length option involving exchanges lasting from one to three months, usually during a break in the student's academic year. The Intensive Program student may select from a number of options, including a traditional homestay, a concentrated language program, an outdoor education program or a cultural studies program.
