You are so lucky, the warm sun,the sandy beaches,the language you already speak..............wish I were there.Thanks for sharing

[@no_soy_rubio]

I take it you're home now from Thailand? 😆

[@wendingourway]

The whole of the DR is certainly a whole lot different since 1981! lol That's when I was there. Awesome stuff!

[@no_soy_rubio]

I can imagine! I think it'll be completely different even in 5 years from now too!

[@musicnature007]

ฉันชอบเมืองนี้อยากไปเที่ยวมาก 👍👍👍

[@groundbreakerexplore]

Wonderful adventure tour upload here! Well done, big thumbs up and enjoy the weekend, dear friends~

[@travel_and_explore_with_BIP]

Oh Woww I’m jealous! But I’ll be back in the Caribbeans in January-February!

[@no_soy_rubio]

Nice Bip, which part?

Wow, this was by far your best 'Chicken Lottery' destination!😅I loved the beautiful historic colored buildings, the vibrant streets, the murals, and the cool retro cars. I particularly liked the street with the pastel-coloured parasols overhead. The outdoor auditorium had awesome views of the ocean. It would be great to go to a concert there. The rubbish in the water was very concerning. Glad your room was clean this time, with no "extras" on offer! 😂 I'm really enjoying this series and learning a lot about the different destinations. Thank you! ❤

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thank you! Definitely a lot more salubrious than the last couple of places 😅

[@driving_all_over]

Your best video of these so far mate I had a similar thing happen in the summer with a Premier Inn of all places where the bathroom light was linked to the room light, very odd 😂 A shame about the cable car but yeah you definitely made the right choice by not going up there due to the low cloud. Maybe one to go back to in a future year when the YouTubing gets stronger As for 6 figure things I honestly couldn’t ever imagine you having or doing anything for that value as you’re too down to earth

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thanks mate, definitely the most luxurious 😆 Haha nice to hear it happens back home as well! Well I wouldn't say no to a six figure salary but a corporate lifestyle? No thank you!

[@driving_all_over]

@ Yeah everything else but a salary. Certainly not a house as you’d never live in it due to the travelling 😂

[@Pratman]

Totally agree best chicken bus lottery by far place looks awesome great find & thanks for sharing bud 😀

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thanks mate 😎

[@chrisbentleywalkingandrambling]

I think it was a great idea, Matt, and thoroughly enjoyable too. I hope we get some more random ones like this. Stay safe and stay well. Thanks for sharing.

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thanks Chris! There'll probably be a few more random trips to come, they were fun to make 😄

[@vedrana0127]

Unfortunately I haven't been to the Dominican Republic and Caribbean, but it’s good to learn something about its rich history, vibrant culture and diverse landscapes.

[@randyleon5932]

Welcome to my beatifull country

[@JBwhattodo]

Never really thought of going there and now IKEA have beaten me to it 🙃🍄

[@no_soy_rubio]

Damn IKEA are taking over the world one flat-packed piece of furniture at a time 🍄

[@jackhartman628]

Felt like i was right there. The Atlantic looked like the gulf, so blue and beautiful. Thanks for doing all the work, really enjoyed it.

[@no_soy_rubio]

@jackhartman628 thanks for your comment, appreciate it 🙏

[@omarnina9770]

Great video, Thank you for visiting DR

[@gianniclaud]

This was a really great video - so much going on here! Thanks for the quality content, Matt - and for not selling out.

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thanks Gianni, appreciate your support!

[@billyb5057]

an amazing tour my friend *thumbs up👍Au💯full view always*

[@simono.sniper3214]

Hi Matt! You are now in my old world. Head East, stop at Sosua, Cabarete, and then Rio San Juan(which has a lovely lagoon). I used to live near Gaspar Hernandez and know tons of people in that area, some lovely beaches and local businesses and restaurants. Ultimately, my favourite places were past Nagua(going East)towards Samana Bay and Las Terenas. Enjoy, and take care.

[@no_soy_rubio]

Ahhh I wish I had more time and better weather to see all those places! Hopefully next time because it looks great and the people were really nice!

[@simono.sniper3214]

Are you still in the DR now?

[@no_soy_rubio]

@simono.sniper3214 no, I left last week, rained most of the time I was there! Will be posting a few videos soon. Back in El Salvador now, and heading to Nicaragua on Saturday

[@escursionisuburbane6107]

I've got the feeling that your channel will soon explode and get way more views👌

[@no_soy_rubio]

I hope so although views hace been down recently!

[@nox101]

👍

[@atrampinthehills.841]

you sure do show us some great places Gringo...love all the murals..pretty windy down there..guess it is prime hurricane country

[@NorwayHikesTrails]

Thank you for the update 👍 😊

[@gabrielletanner5339]

Ohh dear doggos, breaks my heart..my Pedro was on the streets, he loved having a home ...

[@no_soy_rubio]

Yes although most dogs seem to be happy it does seem like they have a death wish crossing the roads 🤣

[@gabrielletanner5339]

Oh wow that coach station..

[@sergioelcoyote3586]

Mu like from this channel too Matt😃👏👏👏

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thank you my friend ❤️

[@TheJournalofanExplorer]

You saved the best till last! I've not seen much of Dominican Republic, but it looks incredible and so developed. Crazy to think it borders Haiti as well, which is probably the lawless place in the world at the moment. Puerto Plata seems gorgeous, felt like a more developed version of Havana will all the colours, vintage cars and classic architecture! The views looks incredibly scenic 😍 - shame the weather wasn't more on your side 😢 Would love to see you try this in a different country!

[@no_soy_rubio]

Definitely the best for last although that wasn't too hard 😅 yeah I was considering visiting Haiti but didn't in the end, probably a good thing. Definitely Puerto Plata is like Havana lite 😆 will probably pick the series up again in a couple of months 😁

[@anitawaters4745]

Really interesting, learning a lot 😊

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thanks Anita 😁

[@eksodass]

great video, while we getting snowed in here in the black forest people walking with T-shirts

[@no_soy_rubio]

It was 33° earlier today and even tonight it will only get down to 25 🥵

[@ItStartsWithAStep]

Such a lovely skyline to start off the video :) Enjoyed wondering around with you Matt it feel like a good vibe here. I know what you mean with the north Korea vibes. Onto the next adventure, looks like a nice bus ride and the country views were great! cute pink archway :) i love all those umbrellas and old style cars! Lovely coastline, feels like a feel good place overall :) gorgeous street art! I love the fortress too :) Definitely a cool town and really looks like a buzzing place with lots to do. i love the little church :)

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thanks Kate, twas an interesting day and night 😄😎

[@IanTupmanOutdoors]

Well that hotel room looked a lot more hygienic than your last one Matt! The town had a nice vibe about it and the lunch looked yummy 😋 Shame about the weather on the mountain but there are plenty more on your itinerary I'm sure. All the best Matt. Ian and Meg 🙋‍♂🐶

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thanks Ian! That's exactly what I was thinking, there'll be plenty more mountains! Hope you and Meg are doing well!

[@IanTupmanOutdoors]

@@no_soy_rubio We're good thanks Matt. Just into the first week of our winter odyssey in the Dolomites 😎

[@no_soy_rubio]

@IanTupmanOutdoors great stuff, enjoy!

[@GENerationXplorers]

Chicken Bus Lottery, live this series. Look at those brutalistic buildings! Those roads are crazy! Dicing with death crossing them. No filming inside metro terminals? Seems reasonable, most indoor places are prohibited. The Caribe Tour Boys look friendly! This bus has it all! Have to say it looks very clean and graffiti free everywhere. Arriving ahead of time, thats refreshing. Wow the vintage cars are very cool! Some great street art (not tags). Beautiful fortress and great views towards the mountains. Superb views from the abandoned who knows what place! Definitely doing well on our humble vlogging salary! Eat with the locals! £2.88 for lunch is incredible! Lovely looking accommodation. The river of plastic waste was a shame. Acapulco! Water looks good. Its a dogs life on that beach. Poorest Gringo In Town! Litter picking with his trident, thats quite the visual Matt! Great Wild West Victorian architecture. Watch out for the Haiti voodoo! Central lighting and Air Con, superb. Sketchy walk up to the cable car/safari. Great views from the top on that picture. That was a great episode! 👍

[@jonnytaansend1469]

Great video.

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thanks mate 🙏

[@gabrielletanner5339]

Ohh funny "taxi queen, flat tyres" 😅

[@eksodass]

At 18:48, beach guardians scatter in all directions. 19:21, they seem to say, "We are all over the place."

[@no_soy_rubio]

You will not pass the guardians 🐶😆

[@SetForAdventures]

Brilliant adventure as always Matt definitely looked more developed here 👌🏻 But I’m with you mate I’ll eat where the locals eat 👍 Just better in all levels! Best wishes Simon 🤠👍

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thanks Simon mate couldn't agree more 😎

[@nox101]

It’s kinda a bummer u weren’t able to get to that mountain. It does seem nice. Now, u have a reason to go back there. Haha🤥! There’s always a next time anyway.

[@no_soy_rubio]

Thanks Brian! I would go back to that part of the world, but not that city. Maybe further along the coast where the nicer beaches are!

[@gabrielletanner5339]

They had a scare recently at Gatwick airport, about an unidentified package...perhaps something like that concerns them ..

[@no_soy_rubio]

I think security is generally a big concern especially with Haiti being next door

[@gabrielletanner5339]

Just looked it up on Dr Google ..what a beautiful coastline..

[@gabrielletanner5339]

Ohh lots of non carribeans there, must be really popular...

[@no_soy_rubio]

It's very popular with Caribbean cruises!

[@the_footballtourist]

Needed a warning for the Ikea jump scare 😅

[@no_soy_rubio]

Hey if it's gonna trigger me, I'm gonna let it trigger everyone 🇸🇪😈😅

[@the_footballtourist]

@ Hahaha that would definitely be in the top 5 things I wouldn’t expect to see in the Caribbean

[@SergioElCoyote-Futbol]

great video Matt, very interesting places to walk. There was a lot of dirt on some parts of the beaches. Cosita Rica, has a lot of meanings, it is open to your mind's interpretation. One: Cosita is Little thing and Rica is nice, is like to say, a little and nice place to enjoy, two: This phrase may have sexual connotations, or may encourage couples to meet up en enjoy, Cosita is usually called the vagina, and rica is delicious or nice, three: Cosita rica, It can just be a nice place, where you can be quiet and no one will bother you. But never means rich like a lot of money, although the direct translation of rica is rich. just imagine and give it your own meaning hahaha. The tour was very good and the buses you traveled on really look clean and comfortable this time. Have a great week dear friend, greetings from Argentina

[@no_soy_rubio]

Jajaa thanks for the explanation my friend 🙈🤣🤣

[@franciscoalbertojerezcruz3906]

in Puerto Plata is the atlantic ocean

[@no_soy_rubio]

Yes that's explained later in the video

[@gabrielletanner5339]

Ohhhh I was looking forward to the cable car views...😢

[@no_soy_rubio]

There'll be a cable car video coming next week 😁

[@no_soy_rubio]

[@alexisantoniolopez1002]

hey Greetings from the DR, are you British?

[@alansouthen1428]

Will you be heading on to Haiti? I am hoping you are not as I will be concerned for you if you do.

[@no_soy_rubio]

I was considering heading there for a day or two until I found out they charge something like a $60 departure tax. Every Dominican I spoke to advised me not to go too.

[@victorgarcia4449]

Klk amigo and fallout you gablessi

[@CelticMickWalks]

Honestly I thought the price of beer would be cheaper 😢

It is when you're not at a beachside bar 😅
