Punta Cana

Spanish, Punta Cana, I got to learn lots of cool and very interesting things. In this personal narrative, I will be telling you all of the great, or crazy experiences that I had at Dominican Republic. If you don’t know where in the world that the country is located, it is on the east coast off of Puerto Rico. It is a very interesting place that is surrounded by water.

Things didn't get any greater in New Hampshire, where the plane had to wait…

My great grandfather came to America from the Dominican Republic on a boat to provide a better life for the many generations of his family to come. My great-grandfather’s perseverance and courage always inspires me to always work hard. Although my first language was English, I am learning Spanish now so I can become more connected with my heritage.

You ever wondered what other countries are like and their cultures? Have you ever wondered about the similarities and differences between countries outside of your own? Two countries with two completely different cultures, religions, and in two completely different regions. I chose two countries which are Dominican Republic and Russia.

A sweet tropical aroma invades my nostrils as my family follows the meandering path through the dry tropical rainforest in Punta Cana to a freshwater cove. As a leaf falls from above us, we hear some rustling in the trees overhead. “Did you hear that?” mentions my sister Courtney. “Hear what? The birds chirping in the trees?” Sara, my other sister, responds. “Very funny!…

industry has is undeniable. However, those effects can be reversed. For my project I decided to plan a trip to the Dominican Republic. The resort, tourist’s attractions, and activities I have chosen are owned and employ locals. I chose to stay at the Punta Cana Resort and Club. Two Dominican businessmen created the resort in 1971. The resort employs hundreds of locals as well as generates an impressive amount of revenue. I have also chosen a few activities. For example, the Puntacana Village…
