In reply to GLM. Hey GLM! So sorry, if it's not in this post it's no longer in my brain, ha. The good news is Encuentro is as tiny a town as they come. If they are still there, you won't miss 'em!

Loved this post. Could you put the name of the arepa place and some of the bars you went to?

In reply to Sara Caroline Eubanks. I just returned from the most amazing second trip to the Dominican Republic -- I'm in love! Seriously, can't recommend it more.

I’ve never heard of this place but it sounds like a perfect getaway for me this year.

In reply to Jen Ambrose. Ah thank you so much for these recommendations Jen -- I've got some time after my retreat to explore so I might have to check those out!

In reply to Ramona Puckett. I know! It really could have been a disaster -- maybe even in the chaos something in my intuition told me as nuts as this particular dog seemed, he wouldn't be aggressive to people (and he wasn't!)

Sounds like the perfect trip! We went to Las Galeras a few years ago, which is near-ish and very similar. We also spent a couple days in Santo Domingo, and loved the vibe (and food & architecture!) there.
