My Return Home To Sosua 2024

[bingoman]

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

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.   

[murano2010]

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.   

[murano2010]

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.

[murano2010]

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. 

[murano2010]

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.   

[murano2010]

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.

BTW, how are the rains and floods ? I will be there soon and the weather forecast of constant/daily rains is a bit worrying

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.

[murano2010]

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.

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,
