New: Gatherings and events in Dominican Republic

Hi,

Would you like to have a coffee, organize a dinner or find people for activities in Dominican Republic?

To help you meet people and find outings in Dominican Republic, we launched a Gatherings and Events section in Dominican Republic: you can now follow what's going on in your area and make the most of your time off.

You can also create events and organize a gathering with the Expat.com members.

How to create a gathering?

On the Events in Dominican Republic page, click on “Post an event”.
Fill in the form with the details related to the gathering: date, place, hour… and post your event.

It's now time to invite the other members! You can opt for a public event or a private one (Invitation or Invitation plus).

To send invites, click on “Invite friends” on your event page and select who you wish to invite.

Get informed of who is coming through this page and get in touch with the other members or add pictures of the events in the comments.

A photo album dedicated to the event will then be created.

What do you think of this new feature?

Thanks,

Julien

I like the idea Julien!

So how many here are in the Puerto Plata area?

Do you have a section where one can post services?  Or would that be a paid ad?  I drive for people who arrive and do not wish to rent a car.  Renting a car costs about fifty dollars a day plus gas here and I will supply the car and driver for that. My car is not new, nor close to it, but I am quite knowledgeable about the North Coast of the country and can recommend activities as well as just drive.  I took a couple to a cock fight the other day at their request. When I picked them up afterwards she ( a 70 year old Canadian lady) had her blouse covered with chicken blood and feathers. She sure enjoyed the blood sport.  I wouldn't watch it, but know where it is if others want to see it.  I can also  recommend hotels and the best beaches for what you are looking for.

This is a great idea!!

Dingo you need to go to the classifieds honey, where you can place an ad!  And what you do is a great service!

I arrive on February 8 from Canada.  I wish I would of known earlier as I would of come sooner.  If the date changes or another gathering arise please let me know.  I will be staying in Sosua until April 21. Thank you.

Known of what sooner?

I think the reference was to an event which Julien used as an example.  There was no event or will be no event February 6th.   I can understand the confusion.

MIss Planner,
Por favor direct me to the classifieds section.  I have two ideas I wanna advertise as soon as my next social security check comes in!  How much are classified ads?
