When I received an invite to a private gathering, a gathering that my personal favorite cigar company was holding right off the bat I thought of three names who I know would love to attend. In the DR there’s this unwritten law that everybody’s welcome and keeping that in my thoughts immediately three names came [...]

On 6 August 1991, almost twenty eight years ago, the World Wide Web became publicly available. This gave birth to a whole new technology which would fundamentally change the world as we know it. There’s a multitude of ways August 6, 1991 changed the world but one thing I’m sure we’ll all agree on is since [...]
One question I’m often asked is what entailed in the DYD tour. Where will we be going, what will we see? You know the general questions you’d think might have an easy answer. Turns out these questions don’t have simple answers. Over the past six plus years I’ve done close to 700 discovery tours, met [...]
I’m often asked “with all the countries you’ve been in and after living in six different countries what made you settle on the DR?”A good question that’s always trailed by another “out of the whole DR what is it that made you pick the town of Cabrera?” Perhaps even a better question and I’ll attempt [...]
Wednesday February 14th 2018 the US suffered its most recent incident involving yet another school shooting. What seems to be taking on the appearance of an ongoing weekly TV series recently featured its 18th episode of the year. Just so were all on the same page here I’m saying that this totals eighteen separate school [...]
Nancy and Jerry are carrying out a project that many would find hard to even consider. They’re building a 2,200 square foot pool cliff home while still living abroad. Here’s a brief history on how we first met. It’s really kind of cool how it occurred. We met Nancy and Jerry several years prior. Their [...]
On what will be my final video in this series I’ll discuss a couple more often overlooked options for qualifying. I briefly discuss the options of Special skills and of a Work visa. I caution my younger viewers to understand that doors will eventually open if you’re the right person. Like so often I’ll use [...]
In my third video on immigration beginning at the 1:00 minute mark I touch on a few points on why I feel other than as an exit strategy you’ll probably never use a Dominican passport when traveling. Together we’ll go through what is passport ranking, what exactly it is what it means and most importantly [...]
In this the 2nd video I dive in a bit deeper. I’ll touch on a few areas so often overlooked until after you’ve already made your final immigration decision. I revisit why I feel it’s mandatory owning at least two passports. An exit strategy, an extra queen on the board, a get out of jail [...]
If a person’s looking at relocation as a future option I suppose a logical place to begin would be looking into what are the immigration requirements of that country. While I’m no expert on the subject and I’m certainly not an immigration attorney over the past six plus years have referred over 1400 files to [...]
Going forward with Liane’s idea we’re making this our first video of the series. While buying tires isn’t really a subject worth a video we decided to make an exception. The entire series is about general unbiased information. No bashing and no praising remember this is all about folks helping other folks. It’s truly our [...]
We’re going to begin creating a series of videos that should prove useful to a large amount of folks. It’s going to be a continuous series of what we hope will be helpful bits of information acquired over 35 plus years of living as a foreigner. By no means are we saying our way is [...]
A fair while ago I did a YouTube featuring the Dulce Vida restaurant. During that time the food was superb. As with most businesses (mine included) things tend to go along smoothly for a while and so you just coast along and do little in the way of improving things. After all why change what’s [...]
I recently received a request from one of our subscribers. They thought it would be a good idea if I filmed some of the construction currently underway around the town of Cabrera. I took a couple of hours and just drove around the various neighborhoods. I simply snapped a few pictures of the homes currently [...]
