I just came back from a solo trip to the Dominican Republic and it was amazing. Everybody in my family was so scared for me but I was super safe in my Airbnb. The locals were super nice and the food was amazing.

Solo travel experience

I absolutely love the country. The beaches, weather, people, culture, food, and music are amazing. I have never once felt unsafe. I've stayed in Santo Domingo, Juan Dolio, La Romana, and Punta Cana. I follow the same safety precautions where ever I go. No flashy clothes or jewelry. Walk with purpose and confidence.
