Jarabacoa is nestled in the Dominican Republic’s Cordillera Central. We’ve come to visit a friend, hike some waterfalls, and explore a less-traveled part of the country.
Our Dominican Republic backpacking trip takes us to Las Galeras on the the Samaná Peninsula for beach hopping and fun in the sun, including a hop over to world-renowned Playa Rincon.
Day Two brought out the Dominican sunshine and people, allowing for a nice stroll around Old Town Santo Domingo and its many historical and fascinating sights.
This spring we took a trip down to the Caribbean to explore the oldest Western settlement in the New World and visit a missionary friend.
