I left Sosua in Sept 2023 to travel. 1st stop was Thailand, then to the Philippines. Made two round trips from the Philippines to Kenya. Nov 2023, and Feb 2024.
Over the years, whenever I left the DR, it was a win/win feeling for me. I didnt want to leave the DR but felt it was time to do so. And the time spent away always helped me to miss the DR, and also it helped me to detox from the bullshit one has to deal with visiting or living in the DR.
Before I left in Sept I had a pretty good routine set up. Which included gym time and other physical activities. And of course fellowshipping with the fellas. Most of my regulars have moved on. But there are always a few regulars I could reconnect with, if I want to. Sometimes, I may not even want to be bothered. And just focus on the next trip. Get my action at the next destination.
What Im looking forward to, is to see what has changed since Ive left. Like seeing what happened to the new construction that was being built. Some of that may be finished by now. See what was done after the fire at Ricky's and the other establishments.
Enjoying the higher exchange rate. When I left in Sept 2023, it was around 56.30 I think. Now it's over 59 to 1 in Sosua.
But with a higher exchange rate overall, how has this affected the cost of goods and services? Like gas and food prices. Dining out around town and neighboring areas? Prices for food on the beach?
Cost of accommodations, massages, grooming services, taxis and motoconchos? It's a blessing that my landlord in Sosua has not raised the rent the entire time Ive been there. If I were to come back to a rent increase, I would be able to accept it. The good thing so far, my rent is paid up until January 2025. And May 2025 in the Philippines. And my rent has not budged in the Philippines since I acquired that apt in 2019.
How has the exchange rate or inflation affected the expectation$ from the chicas? Especially them seeing that the exchange rate for foreigners is in our favor?
Another benefit of my return, is that since Im used to flying long distance, experiencing short and long layovers, being in the DR will feel like Im just a short bus ride away from the US. Im used to 9, 12, and 15+ hour flights. A flight from the US to POP for me, feels like nothing, compared to the travel times Im used to.
There is one thing I might do for a change. When I feel like traveling again, take up traveling to visit people that live in various cities and states around the US. I have friends, family and ex coworkers from all over the country. Always asking, when are you going come to visit them? My problem is, I usually come to the US only to pass through, to get to my next destination.
I have acquaintances from places Ive never been. Like Australia, the UK or Germany. Also, it might be a good idea, to check out some new African countries. Like South Africa, Ghana etc.
But right now, I am looking forward to my return to the DR and Sosua. The warm climate, the relatively clean healthy environment. The point and click rock star vibe Sosua offers. Or at least used to offer.

One of the best things I did for myself after a few years of enjoying mongering in Sosua primarily, was to change how I operated in Sosua, especially with women.
Having numerous regulars was quite enjoyable and fulfilling from a sexual and ego standpoint. But I got to a point where I started to wake up a few years ago, to see the scene from a different perspective. Having a bunch of regulars, or just f--king very often was draining my finances and my loins unnecessarily. None of these women, or the people in general were friends. It was all superficial.
Living in the amusement park, as far as dealing with the women rides, no longer gave me the excitement I used to feel when only on vacation. Also I knew too much about these women and the scene overall. Reality had hit me. I evolved and watched these women evolve.......including seeing the difference in the generation of women that was taking over the p4p game in Sosua.
I dont value them the way I used to. Years ago many of these women represented a different mindset, and it showed in how they looked and behaved. To some extent, I see them as mutants instead of real women. The fakeness has morphed into something much worse than the days when chicks wore their own hair and eyelashes, and wasnt over run with tattoos, and surgeries. Many of these women seem just as bad as the women where I am from. More masculine, and less feminine.
These days, Im not inclined to bust a lot of nuts with chicks just because I can. Years and years of f--king in the states was a lot, but years and years f--king in Sosua has sort of made me numb. I want my nuts to matter. Now my nuts are mainly for my sexual maintenance, rather than from the sport of it.
I dont pay attention to these womens beauty the way I used to, because I need more from interacting with them to be attracted to them. Femininity, a certain vibe. Many of these women lack bringing that vibe, even though visually they should be very appealing and f--kable. Many of us had enough sex in a lifetime. So f--king one more chick, can be uninspiring. Unless she brings a quality that enhances that experience.
I still like trying out some new juice from time to time, but I dont like the hassle and bullshit that comes with accomplishing that. Because many of these chicks in Sosua is like dealing with a drug deal gone bad. All a dude wants is a fair exchange. The money for a decent pussy ride. Not just some chick showing up to get paid.
Which is why I had several regulars over the years in the 1st place. But my travels and my need to trim the pussy bill waste, led me to be more selective in when I felt like engaging in wasting money on p4p. What Im getting at, I began to have a disdain for enriching women, for what little they had to offer. I self exaggerated their value on my behalf over the years.
Im not talking misogyny here. Cause I am also talking about my attitude towards all the players in Sosua, or any other destination. From the local men, raggedy expats, the day to day con games one has to put up with daily. No, Im talking about caring more about taking care of me and my interests much better, rather than enriching others. And this applies to everywhere I would travel, not just being in the DR.
Getting as close as I can to ONLY giving or rewarding others for what they actually earn. Rather than letting my emotions guide me on doing things, or wasting money and time on endeavors and people that are not worth it.
This mindset and pursuit is quite liberating. Because you spend more time looking after yourself much better, without feeling you are betraying those who seek to use you or get over on you.

Since summer 2020, I have been prioritizing the beach and weather first, cheap food food second, exercise third and then the women fourth in my list of priorities. A majority of the women suck in Sosua, so even if I bring $1000-2000 for my chica budget, I’m only spending a fraction of that. Like you I’m not wasting money, just to burn through money and feel jaded.
Money spent on a great meal, vehicle or excursions brings me more joy than a potential starfish or session that feels mediocre(some girls don’t starfish, but the effort is lacking so you end it out of pride rather than go flaccid out of boredom) where I rather just go to OceanVillage lor checkout a repair shop in sabanete to fix up electronics for a good value or see if los Ojos sucks or not, opposed to a wasted experience and money.
I may end up doing a month in Sosua my next visit, due to finding a good deal on my stay, and flight ticket, but my experience may be up or down due to the 3500-5000 requests but the service may be hit or miss
-
Sir thats a great out look, enjoy other activites as well and your correct on being selective on chicas, a few well vetted sesiions are a heck of a lot better than 10 shitty mechanical sessions,, to be honest i just stayed wirh one trusted chica,, thats just me,, before i would be a thirsty dude and whaste money on a lots of mediocer chicas,,, there more to the DR and Sosua than sub par chicas !

I copy all of that. Kudos for the discipline you've achieved through your journey.
-
Honestly it’s not discipline, I just dislike an expensive bad deal. If the woman were cheaper or looked better and provided worthwhile service, I’d likely be singing a different tune. (Standard pricing in establishments where you can pay by card and the girls not shit you is what makes me willing to spend more, the women legit being beautiful is a bonus)
Despite my praise of South America having better women and better value, Sosua has a cleaner and more swimmable beach. Food tastes better, if you find the right spot, and day by day just chilling you find Americans men more approachable for idle chitchat in say a hotel like NG, SosuaInn, Rumbas, etc.. when downtime from women. In Brazil you limited to the beach or Mab’s, unless you randomly catch a fellow monger in the streets, and Colombia it’s either near the clubs or parlors that’s it. Significantly larger cities than Sosua.
Sosua is pretty chill and is a legit tropic vacation to kick back and relax. It’s only when the hustlers/beggars annoy me repeatedly when I start to dwell on alternative options. I might not mind a 1000-1200 meal that I could find 650-850 elsewhere in the same location until I have repeated begging, pissy attitudes from staff, and loud belligerence nearby that my mood changes. If everything remains chill and not too loud(don’t blast a bluetooth speaker next to me, when two neighboring restaurants are already playing loud music but at a tone low enough for communication but jackass tourist wants to compete and overtake them) I have minimum pessimism and actually like Sosua. I avoid weekends to the beach to mitigate it, but I think my solution may be to fly to another country and return back after Monday/Tuesday. Like go to Cuba/PR instead.

Speaking of Cuba one you tube guys, a non monger quotes there Ecomey is collasping, the old Communist Casto regime is raising gas prices and cutting back on food rastion coupons, mabey toto will be cheaper they put out a requests for milk for childern to internaltiona relieff organiseations !

Murano, this is a thought-provoking, insightful and mature outlook. Well stated.
I've been mongering for years. Like so many other board members, I've been to all the major areas. When I first started in this hobby, I was like a dog that hadn't been let out of the house. A couple of monogamous marriages will do that to a naturally non monogamous man. Now that I've gained some experience (and age), I find myself searching for quality and consistency in my choice of provider. You used the word, "vibe" which is also the best way I can put it. A girl just walking the beach with a fat ass offering service no longer cuts it. In fact, her just being there on PC or anywhere in the world just doesn't cut it.
On a recent trip to Pattaya, I ventured over to Soi 6 and as I entered the street from 2nd Rd., I was looking for some action. Hundreds of girls with a least 2 dozen trying to pull me into their bar and grabbing my dick. Naturally, I'm there to get a drink, choose a lady and have a good time. But rather than just allow myself to be pulled in by some random girl, I decided to just sit down on the narrow sidewalk and chill. I just sat there for probably 10 minutes watching the scene...until I spotted one girl in a crowd of dozens that had a certain way about her; a positive vibe. I surmised in seconds that she was jovial, in a good mood and was singing to the bar's music. It just seemed to me that she wanted to be there. Of course, she was beautiful. I then stood up, walked over and introduced myself which took her by complete surprise. "I like your energy, I'm choosing you tonight", I declared. I was right about everything. All it took was 10 minutes of quiet and allowing the energy/vibe to find YOU. I had a fantastic and memorable time.
I'm saying all of this to say that no matter where I go, I'm looking for that vibe, that energy that matches my own. If I don't feel it then I simply move on. I don't waste my time and certainly not my money. This is a skill that requires knowing what kind of man/monger you are. Long ago, I would hit the streets at night and put pressure on myself to smash all the attractive chicas in my range. Just a basic business transaction. In retrospect, I would have gotten more pleasure by jacking off, turning over and going to sleep.

I do relate to you and what you conveyed. With our experiences, age ( living life ), trial and error comes knowledge, wisdom and acquired skills. Combined, worth more than money. Especially for the esoteric few.

I guess when I think about it in my regard, we werent meant to have any one destination to be 100% of everything we would want or need. Because that might lead to laziness and never venturing out or exploring. Each destination has something to offer. Even if the experience is negative.....it still has value. Even if it's only to reinforce that it is some place to stay away from, or to spend as little time there as possible.
In real time, you seem to know what you want and what you dont want. Making adjustments and adapting as you see fit. Extracting whats good, leaving behind what isnt. Exposure to certain perceived negatives, can help one enjoy their positive experiences much more, when they come.
-
I concur with Murano and Jett. Once you’ve been around the block a few times (I’m talking country to country), you find yourself wanting a more engaging experience.
I’ve had awesome sessions for sure, but the best ones were the most intimate ones that never felt like business.
-
Yes, there are a lot of nice bods and pretty faces but very few project an aura that would lead you to conclude that your time with her will be enjoyable. Unlike years ago most of these chicks ain’t doling out much affection. Though the sex might be good it really wasn’t worth it if at the end if I’m left feeling empty. That is no longer acceptable where once it wasn’t a problem
-
murano and jett both offer very insightful responses and I have to say I agree. I am from the midwest (OHIO) and in my city just the women that I see (strippers/pro, non-pro/civilians) just don't hit like they used too. Before Covid I could go to one of the bars and drop a load in a woman whose function was nothing more than that and they were receptive and at least offered a good experience. Now post covid I just see weathered hags, nothing new that has replaced them or added to the situation at hand and being just being bored and going through the motions that I don't feel anymore excitement. Going to Detroit and Atlanta is different as at least you have a larger group of women to choose from and the fact they are better providers. I just hope when I go to Sosua, I'm not let down like I have been for a long time here in OH.

Just curious, is that the rate card from 4x4 ? Havent been there in a while

So far it's been a rough couple of days since I returned home to Sosua. I returned on April 16th. A dreary rainy day. I had no idea what was in store later. I came home and was happy my internet was still connected. Place had that moldy odor, even though I had left some windows open for ventilation.
Ive come home in the past only to find out that my internet was down. So my 1st day back would be somewhat ruined. Having internet this time, didnt last long though. The rain got extremely heavy as it got later. At some point a loud boom occurred, and my internet was done from that point on.
Where I live, we experienced intermittent power outages all night, as well. Next day more intermittent outages. And today, there was a regional power outage that was for several hours. It's 7:41pm, and our power has just been restored. Ooooops, spoke too soon. The power is out again. Now back on. This is what it's been like for the last 2 days.
But still my internet is down. Finally went to Claro this morning in Sosua to get one of the reps to arrange for a tech to come to my house. When I tried to call at home, I was unsuccessful getting through to anybody.
Back in April 2012, Sosua had one of the worst storms and flooding I had ever seen. I was staying at Sosua Suites on Dr Rosen. Pedro Clisante had major flooding from that storm. The water was up to the doors of cars. Businesses were getting major water all along PC.
This is crazy. Whenever I leave for long periods of time, there is always something that stops working, that was working before I left. This time, the display in my car was f--ked up for some reason. I also had to buy a new battery. 6500 pesos. Same in the states, I had to buy a new battery for that vehicle too. A Diehard $229 with submitting old battery
After 7 months, the ground underneath my vehicles had accumulated a lot of mud. So I had to get someone to take care of that. Underneath my sink, some stuff had leaked onto the kitchen floor. It's like, if I hadnt left I would have never had these problems. Same with the moldy clothes in the closet and my bed linen.
-
My old Haitian regular expressed interest in us hooking up. If all goes well, we can get together tomorrow night. Hopefully by then I'll have a cleaner house, and internet.
Im hoping this rain will leave pretty soon. Im looking forward to warmer weather, hitting the beach, and visiting my usual spots for food, and chica watching.
Once I'm settled in, I might as well rejoin the gym.
-
I reached out to another old regular, last night. Wasnt expecting her to be available, I was just texting to say hi. Because I recalled that she worked at the casino and didnt get off until the wee hours. I'd only let her come every now and then, if I felt like getting up to let her in the door.
But things have changed. She claims to be working elsewhere, in the day time. The chick said she could be here in 10 minutes. She had her own pasola. Cool. No sooner than I got out of the shower, and dressed she was outside.
Known this one since 2015. She's a granny, but she still looks f--kable after all of these years. I chose not to talk price, even though we havent done business in a while. Just went with the flow. I gave her my usual. She didnt complain. She possibly gets more from other cats, especially when she was working in the casino.
My old Haitian regular is supposed to come tonight. If I connect with any more old regulars, I can see my pussy bill increasing consistently within a months time. Once that ball is rolling, I would expect them all to be contacting me to see if they can come over. I just dont need that much juice ( anymore ) in one week, or even in one month. Some would say, this is a problem thats workable rather than being a nuisance.

You’ve transcended regular mongering my friend. It’s no longer about the juice, but the quality of the squeeze. I’m in the same space.
I don’t need a whole bunch of multiple romps each and every day. I’m more satisfied with engaging and quality romps.
A fantastic nut in the morning, and I’m good for just about the rest of the day until night. A fantastic nut at night, and I don’t even need it morning. Just let me sleep in, and sleep good with a naked ass to hold onto, lol.
I’m also a little more reluctant to add new talent to the roster, unless it’s very necessary. This new crop of chicas out here leave a lot to be desired. Smh.
-
I have to say, these mutant chicas today make it much easier to stick to pay per use arrangements. If many of these chicas were sweet, feminine, aimed to please a client, the ones that hung around as if they really enjoyed being there, the type that you could take them places, the ones that would clean your place, perform grooming services, do your laundry, maybe cook, I would be making hookups left and right. And I'd be willing to pay for that kind of woman.
Dont have to worry about that happening anytime soon. Women like that in the p4p realm are rare.
-
One thing I dont miss is the ignorance from the locals. I almost had my car totaled yesterday. This "duminican" driver in an SUV blew through an intersection of a street, where cars normally stop. If I had of made it to that intersection 2 seconds sooner, my car would have been destroyed. And most likely totaled out by my insurance company.
Thats not all. Since Ive been back, I still see the usual wreckless, aggressive driving by dimwits on motorbikes. I have even seen a few foreigners over the years driving just like f--ked up "duminican" assholes. Doing stupid shit in cars,and/or cruising around with these loud ass motorcycles.
Driving in the DR in general, one has to be able to anticipate any type of shit while on the road. Always be prepared for anyone driving towards you against traffic. And them blaming you if there is almost a collision between you and them. Cars and bikes passing in peoples blind spots, or going around another vehicle with only inches of room to pass.
Sosua is too damn small for those type of daily hazards.

I finally got my internet fixed this morning. Claro replaced my router. A router I had for several years. I hope the replacement is a better quality router than the previous one. Had to also replace my wifi adapter to my computer and had to buy Bluetooth adapter so I could free up some USB ports, and use a BT keyboard and mouse.
I swear I just got back, and Ive already spent money on shit I hadnt anticipated. The tropical weather and sea side climate wreaks havoc on a lot of stuff. Especially electronics and fabrics. Ive had things melt from sitting in a closet. Like cases or covers to phones, tablets or laptops.
Mold showing up on clothes and shoes in the house. Mold showing up inside of vehicles. Aerosol cans and plastic bottles under the sink leaking their contents and causing a mess. Moldy smelling dinero and papers locked up in safes.
When one is there day to day, these issues often dont happen. It's mainly when the place is idle, and closed up for a while. You come back, there is no telling what may have gone wrong, or stopped working. Or ends up missing. Like a pair of plastic chairs I had near my vehicle. Somebody took it upon themselves to take them.
Thats bad when a theft happens where you live. Most likely was one of the staff. I cant see any of the tenants taking them. At the same time, those chairs were actually garbage. They were too molded and dirty from being out in the elements. But I used them when working on a project outside. Somebody did me a favor. I just dont like how they ended up disappearing.

I had similar problems (elsewhere) so ordered various sizes of desiccant packets from Aliexpress, liberally tossed them in every closed container/storage space and the issue reduced massively.
BTW, how are the rains and floods ? I will be there soon and the weather forecast of constant/daily rains is a bit worrying

I will have to look into desicannt protection to see if it is any different than what Ive been using. My earlier solution was buying those large packs that you could hang in the closet. After a couple of weeks though, the bag would have liquified.
Essentially indicating that is wasnt offering any more protection. It's ok for short term use. But what about very long absences? Dont those desicannt packs have to be replaced? How do they hold up for 5 to 10 months, with nobody there to replace them?
This trip, i did do something different. I left several windows partially open. My bedroom door open, and the closet doors. The kitchen cabinets were left open. The balcony door was open. Usually never an issue when it rains.
And still the bed linen and some clothes in the closet had to be washed. Some were worse than others. I guess it depends on the fabric, and the amount of moisture it holds when it's humid in a confined space. Previous absences, I would have had to clean everything in the closet before I could wear it.

Ive been back for 4 days now. Friday the 19th it was sunny and nice all day in Sosua. Low 80's. In the evening it was cooler. One would need a sweater or a jacket if they were riding a motorbike/pasola.
In the days to come, it's a matter of checking the forecast which I rarely do. But I think Im going to start checking it every now and then.
I can understand guys who are concerned about bad weather ruining their trip. I wish I could offer some assurance, that the bad weather is behind us. But I just dont know. Im hopeful that the weather is moving towards daily spring like temps. The important thing is that Semana Santa, has passed.
Now many of the chicas are back on the scene ( enough never left or missed a beat ). I have to get my self reacclimated to any changes. I will be reviving my thread again, just to help with my own updates, observations or thoughts. Current Observations On The Strip/PC and elsewhere.

Thank you ! On the desiccant part, I am not sure how that works out in a seaside place with a lot of humidity. If you left windows open, there should be a reduction in the mold/moldy smell but it depends.
where I live, I have dehumidifier but the limitation is that I can only run it when I am there and it requires power which seems at the mercy of Edenorte, so we are back to square one.
I used 50g/25g/10g packets but it has not gone through a full winter/summer cycle yet but for now, it seems to be doing ok.
On the weather end, I actually do like rain but was planning to do a few trips out of Sosua during the day but can always do something else.
-
This last trip away, I left windows and closets open here in Sosua. I figured, if a major storm came through, I would deal with the clean up when I got back. Most of my clothes were not affected. Only a few items needed immediate attention. And the bed linen.
I took most of my electronics and put them where the place was ventilated. That helped out a lot. For the last few trips, I always take the batteries out of my remotes, and disconnect any cables in tvs or computers.
When I returned to the Philippines in 2022, I had to get my flat screen tv fixed. The HDMI ports stopped working, one by one. Now I never leave cables attached to my devices when I intend to leave for long periods of time.
Even though I left the doors open under my kitchen sink, still some cans were rusting or plastic bottles of cleaning supplies were leaking. I may have to physically move stuff from under the sink ( when I leave ) , to help keep them cooler.
-
I finally got my internet fixed this morning. Claro replaced my router. A router I had for several years. I hope the replacement is a better quality router than the previous one. Had to also replace my wifi adapter to my computer and had to buy Bluetooth adapter so I could free up some USB ports, and use a BT keyboard and mouse.
I swear I just got back, and Ive already spent money on shit I hadnt anticipated. The tropical weather and sea side climate wreaks havoc on a lot of stuff. Especially electronics and fabrics. Ive had things melt from sitting in a closet. Like cases or covers to phones, tablets or laptops.
Mold showing up on clothes and shoes in the house. Mold showing up inside of vehicles. Aerosol cans and plastic bottles under the sink leaking their contents and causing a mess. Moldy smelling dinero and papers locked up in safes.
When one is there day to day, these issues often dont happen. It's mainly when the place is idle, and closed up for a while. You come back, there is no telling what may have gone wrong, or stopped working. Or ends up missing. Like a pair of plastic chairs I had near my vehicle. Somebody took it upon themselves to take them.

might want to weather proof what you have and turn the a/c to eliminate mold

Murano, why dont you just have a house keeper clean it once are week or every two weeks, next time.im sure having someone open up for a day, every week or so, will help all of that,
-
Murano, there are some simple solutions if you leave country for months at a time to prevent mold to develop in your clothes and linen.
The best and most effective would be packing all your clothes and linen in vacuum sealing bags with dessicant packs but this is also the most expensive and complicated.
Another solution would be for you to buy a Shitload of coat hangers and hang them in the middle of the room instead of keeping them folded in your drawers ... same thing with bed linen and towels.
You should also lift your mattress from the bed frame and put it up against a wall or something like that to expose the 2 sides to open air.
I know it may seem stupid said like that but I can assure you it works .... though my preferred method is vacuum bags with dessicant packs.
You can also throw a sheet of Bounce in it to keep your linen fresh.

That is an excellent idea. In all of the years I've been in the DR/Sosua, I have never met ONE local individual that I felt I could trust to have access to my place on my behalf while I am away. And it's not a responsibility that I would unload onto another expat friend.
All of the expats I know and myself, we dont impose on each other like that. If there was just one local human being in the DR I felt I could entrust in managing my place when I was gone, my issue would have been solved long ago. But again that is an excellent solution.
In the Philippines though, I do have someone managing my place. Turns out, she is the pretend girlfriend of my buddy. He's an ex vet/expat from the states. He lives in the Philippines 6 months out of the year. He relies on her to take care of his Philippine residence ( she lives in it too), his car, his bills, EVERYTHING.
He's been with her for more than a decade. It was his suggestion that I allow her to help me too with my place. I took him/her up on the offer.
Since 2019 she's been helping/working for me, taking care of my place, and paying bills etc. She does a good job for the most part, but I still have to supervise her from a distance, because there is no better security and supervision than from the owner. Me. She has let workers in my place in the past, but failed to supervise their movements, and/or secure some of my things. Things that ended up missing or broken. And I find that out when I return. She would be oblivious to what happened.
Or she will get help ( a friend of hers ) cleaning my place, and in the process they would rearrange or organize stuff that I didnt want them to do. Little annoying shit. Because now I have to find where these things were relocated. And Ive told her several times. Please dont move anything. Just leave it the way I left it.
They cant seem to comprehend why I dont need them to make things look a certain way in order for my place to be clean. Small example. I take all of the batteries out of my remotes, and keep the batteries next to each remote. What they will do is grab all of the batteries and put them together in a nice pile. So now I dont know what batteries came from which remote. I shouldnt have to mark the batteries, or pull out my tester to match voltages. Just leave the batteries alone the way I left it. Thats just one example.
So there is an up side and a down side to having hired help. If I had a local I could trust to look after my place in Sosua, Im willing to bet I'd have similar issues, if not worse. The staff at my residence, are only reliable when you can supervise whatever they are doing. I have too much stuff in my place that would be difficult to hide or secure, or expect it not to be missing. It's a miracle that nothing significant was ever stolen from my place over the years.
Ive been in other tenants apartments before in my complex, when the tenant didnt know it. A staff member allowed me to enter. One time, the tenant was asleep when we entered. All we were doing was resetting the internet router, I didnt know the tenant was asleep in the apt. Way back then, the router for the complex was in that individuals apartment. So as you can see, if staff personnel will allow others into an apt when the tenant doesnt know it, they are probably going into my apt from time to time when Im unaware of it as well.
In all fairness, sometimes they have to enter someones apartment. Like for a water leak, or due to something else going on. But are they supervising who they allow into my place. Thats just like maid service at a hotel, where they leave the room door wide open, and anyone passing by can easily come in and snatch something quick without the maid knowing about it.
Giving staff or anybody in the DR to have free reign to check on my apartment while Im not there, would be asking for trouble.

I will keep those solutions in mind. For the time being, I think keeping my closets open, and having a window open and the bedroom door open made a big difference from when I used to lock everything up tight.
What I had to wash/clean thus far has been minimal. At least it wasnt my entire closet full of clothes this time. I thought by leaving the doors open under the kitchen sink that would eliminate excessive heat buildup, but I guess I didnt do enough to keep that area cooler.

Honestly it’s not discipline, I just dislike an expensive bad deal. If the woman were cheaper or looked better and provided worthwhile service, I’d likely be singing a different tune. (Standard pricing in establishments where you can pay by card and the girls not shit you is what makes me willing to spend more, the women legit being beautiful is a bonus)
Despite my praise of South America having better women and better value, Sosua has a cleaner and more swimmable beach. Food tastes better, if you find the right spot, and day by day just chilling you find Americans men more approachable for idle chitchat in say a hotel like NG, SosuaInn, Rumbas, etc.. when downtime from women. In Brazil you limited to the beach or Mab’s, unless you randomly catch a fellow monger in the streets, and Colombia it’s either near the clubs or parlors that’s it. Significantly larger cities than Sosua.
Sosua is pretty chill and is a legit tropic vacation to kick back and relax. It’s only when the hustlers/beggars annoy me repeatedly when I start to dwell on alternative options. I might not mind a 1000-1200 meal that I could find 650-850 elsewhere in the same location until I have repeated begging, pissy attitudes from staff, and loud belligerence nearby that my mood changes. If everything remains chill and not too loud(don’t blast a bluetooth speaker next to me, when two neighboring restaurants are already playing loud music but at a tone low enough for communication but jackass tourist wants to compete and overtake them) I have minimum pessimism and actually like Sosua. I avoid weekends to the beach to mitigate it, but I think my solution may be to fly to another country and return back after Monday/Tuesday. Like go to Cuba/PR instead.
Just curious, is that the rate card from 4x4 ? Havent been there in a while
yes rate card from march this year

I just spent 60 days in the Su beeen home a month and want to go back or go back just a few days be fore i report for my sesonal work,,, We all know shits gone up rent food gas other things and pussy,,, f--k got blind sided when i got back to the states to the Tune of $1000 exsta dollars not planed for,, bussines dues and cost car insurance and other un antisipated BS,,, wish the f--k i was back in the DR !,,, what hasent changed is chicas with puppy dog eyes when they fake they love you and your leaving,, there goes there gravy train once you step onto the plane ! Sosua f--king traffic at rush hour insane, Cops shakeing down hatians just an every day ocerance,fat chicas on the stroll like clock work,, Dumb ass creep cammers on patrol yup probaly 7 of these Assholes like groud hog Day !
One of the best things I did for myself after a few years of enjoying mongering in Sosua primarily, was to change how I operated in Sosua, especially with women.
Having numerous regulars was quite enjoyable and fulfilling from a sexual and ego standpoint. But I got to a point where I started to wake up a few years ago, to see the scene from a different perspective. Having a bunch of regulars, or just f--king very often was draining my finances and my loins unnecessarily. None of these women, or the people in general were friends. It was all superficial.
Living in the amusement park, as far as dealing with the women rides, no longer gave me the excitement I used to feel when only on vacation. Also I knew too much about these women and the scene overall. Reality had hit me. I evolved and watched these women evolve.......including seeing the difference in the generation of women that was taking over the p4p game in Sosua.
I dont value them the way I used to. Years ago many of these women represented a different mindset, and it showed in how they looked and behaved. To some extent, I see them as mutants instead of real women. The fakeness has morphed into something much worse than the days when chicks wore their own hair and eyelashes, and wasnt over run with tattoos, and surgeries. Many of these women seem just as bad as the women where I am from. More masculine, and less feminine.
These days, Im not inclined to bust a lot of nuts with chicks just because I can. Years and years of f--king in the states was a lot, but years and years f--king in Sosua has sort of made me numb. I want my nuts to matter. Now my nuts are mainly for my sexual maintenance, rather than from the sport of it.
I dont pay attention to these womens beauty the way I used to, because I need more from interacting with them to be attracted to them. Femininity, a certain vibe. Many of these women lack bringing that vibe, even though visually they should be very appealing and f--kable. Many of us had enough sex in a lifetime. So f--king one more chick, can be uninspiring. Unless she brings a quality that enhances that experience.
I still like trying out some new juice from time to time, but I dont like the hassle and bullshit that comes with accomplishing that. Because many of these chicks in Sosua is like dealing with a drug deal gone bad. All a dude wants is a fair exchange. The money for a decent pussy ride. Not just some chick showing up to get paid.
Which is why I had several regulars over the years in the 1st place. But my travels and my need to trim the pussy bill waste, led me to be more selective in when I felt like engaging in wasting money on p4p. What Im getting at, I began to have a disdain for enriching women, for what little they had to offer. I self exaggerated their value on my behalf over the years.
Im not talking misogyny here. Cause I am also talking about my attitude towards all the players in Sosua, or any other destination. From the local men, raggedy expats, the day to day con games one has to put up with daily. No, Im talking about caring more about taking care of me and my interests much better, rather than enriching others. And this applies to everywhere I would travel, not just being in the DR.
Getting as close as I can to ONLY giving or rewarding others for what they actually earn. Rather than letting my emotions guide me on doing things, or wasting money and time on endeavors and people that are not worth it.
This mindset and pursuit is quite liberating. Because you spend more time looking after yourself much better, without feeling you are betraying those who seek to use you or get over on you.
Going to add an other Tip is by no means is to not get played by chicas there out to play you if you let them stand firm stand your ground your the boss you have the gold !
