HI! New here

Hello!

We are in NJ too and moving to Cabarete in 16 days! We do not have kids but have been going to Cab and Sosua for past 10 years. As far as living there and where, it would depend on your likes, dislikes and that you have a child... obviously you would want to be near a school, then decide if you will have a car or will be walking everywhere, etc.... If you look up Shay Racey on FB, she has a wealth of knowledge for the area and info regarding children, schools, activities. She has been there for 15 years and is now a realtor too.  If you are shipping anything, try MTI Cargo in Perth Amboy. I looked up MANY shippers and they all have like 2 point something google reviews scores, some good, some bad, but MTI was the only one I found with almost a 5 star rating (we are using them for a few boxes). Lmk if there is any other info I could help you with that I may be able to answer.... Good luck!!

Welcome to the forums!!!  I see you have already started connecting with people!

Hi Angie! 👋 I'm moving to Sosua next month, Nov 25, so maybe I'll see you there sometime! I'm moving with my adult son, and I also work remotely, though I am at the age where I could retire in a few years. I lived in the DR for 3 years a long time ago and have been back to visit a few times, and now I'm excited to finally go back to make it my home again! Ask lots of questions here, people have been very helpful and I've learned a lot!  😃
