so today we are actually leaving at cabaret i can't quite believe it i'm gonna miss this
view i love this view i also love the pool at this place in the last video we actually
showed you around our apartment which we don't totally love but this part i do definitely love
so this probably seems really strange to you guys because in the last video we were showing you this
place we've given you a tour now we're packing up because it's time to go we have commitments
elsewhere the thing is though we have this place rented still for the next few weeks so it's always
really strange to go somewhere else where we have a place rented but we have some big things
planned and we can't wait till you guys see it a little later in the video so we're going to be
meeting up with some fellow travel friends we haven't seen them in a few years but they've been
in previous videos before so you want to stick around to the end of the video to see who it is
we're really excited but i wanted to elaborate a little bit more on what trevor was just saying
about renting an apartment it's just seems so strange to be traveling rent an apartment and then
leave it to go somewhere else but this was really our goal for a long time to be slow traveling to
stay in a place for a long time and have a home base and then do some things here and there uh
in the middle of it but the same time i remember a few years ago we did we went to krakow and we
did christmas markets we rented an apartment in the city for like two weeks and then we left the
apartment for a couple of days to go to another christmas market and i remember just thinking like
this feels so weird to have this apartment rented but knowing that down the road this is what we
want to do so if you're new around here it's your first time to the channel i'm trevor and this is
anna we are the delightful travelers make sure to hit the subscribe button and click on the thumbs
up that really helps us out if you're not new it's nice to see all of you again i still can't believe
we are packing up to go we're packing up to leave this place it feels really strange because
hey we didn't get to spend much time here the weather hasn't been great but where we're going
the weather is looking good right now so finish packing up here hop in the car hit the road
so we are actually not leaving the dominican republic don't worry we have taken all your
recommendations and we're on our way back to samana we can't wait to get there honestly
with so many ideas mainly because of you guys on what we're going to do there but
one of the main reasons we are going back is because we are picking up our friends later in
the video you're going to find out who they are but we're really excited these next few weeks are
going to be tons of fun do you guys remember the last time we did this drive this is a few videos
ago things didn't go quite as planned actually the drive itself was pretty good but leading up
to it trying to get our rental car to not go so smoothly and uh but this time i think we're off
to a much better start at least we got the rental car that we actually ordered i think we have his
kia suv sport sportage so it's exactly what we asked for it came on time everything so far is
going really really well the car is pretty good yeah it's pretty good overall there is one little
issue though you can see uh this mirror just comes right off the rear view mirror so there's that but
you know we can we can deal with this no problem so we have just started making our way through
one of the many towns that we will have to go through today in order to get to uh samana it's
a it gets a little dicey i guess this is the hardest part about driving is actually getting
through the towns you have lots of scooters going around people stopping here and there on the side
of the road just randomly but also the red lights sometimes are really really confusing speed bump
yeah once in a while some of them are really straightforward and obviously
it's like an intersection but other times you don't really
feel like you're at an intersection and you don't know if you should just
ignore the red light like everybody else does or do you stop or what do you do what i find
is the red lights are just a mere suggestion if you want to stop it's entirely up to you
all right pit stop on the side of the road because you know there's a beach here
yeah this beach is like all along this coast but basically run the whole way i
think we're just outside of nagua and it's just so pretty here and completely empty
one of the main reasons we stopped here is because last time when we drove through on
our nightmare road trip we didn't have a chance to really pull over and try to fly the drone
i'm going to attempt that right now it is a little windy but i really want you guys to
see what we've been driving through the drive from cabaret to las terranes is absolutely incredible
and specifically here in nagua there's this kind of palm tree alley it's it's unbelievable
all right it's the next day and this speech might look a little familiar to some of you because
we're back in las terrenas so we're here because we need a pit stop we have to find some lunch
we're going to pick up our friends in this video shortly but hopefully we can find a place huh
yeah i hope so we saw a place last time that looks really really cute hopefully we can find it again
and it's open so we've mentioned in a few videos that we tend to get stopped a fair bit here in the
dominican republic especially in cabaret it hasn't happened so much in las terranes but we just
arrived and we're gonna stop hi guys thanks for saying hello they're from poland what's your names
again hi my name is christoph and hi i'm sara and they're from one of our favorite countries yeah
they're from poland which is one of our favorite countries i think we've been there twice already
love to go back again hopefully we've given you some ideas on what to do around here it's really
nice to see you i love meeting our subscribers it's always fun when you guys stop us and talk to
us we love meeting you guys having conversations with everybody that watches us by the way this
is totally off topic i know you guys are probably a little bit confused about our itinerary because
we were been all over the place uh we were back in cabaret now we're back in las terrenas we're
doing some other things in the next few days we'll be back in las terrenas again then we're gonna be
back back in cabaret day then we're gonna our plan anyways to come back to las terrenas for
a good part of march however we've been looking for an apartment online we just need something
for like i think is the first three weeks of march we want a pool we need good internet and i'm just
having a really hard time finding anything so maybe by the time this video comes out we will
have had success but if anybody knows anything send us a message please all right we may have uh
found a place here it might be the cutest place in los terrance i think it might be oh look at this
oh my god look what we found a little puppy the cutest little puppy in the world
hello what are you doing down there at my feet good
this is eating my foot in the rocks and the rocks stop eating the rock stop eating the
rocks and my feet besides that cute little puppy the only thing that might be more
cute is the place itself just take a look at the courtyard here there's also this kind of retro
vw van that they kind of serve drinks out of serve the food out of it is quite something we were
aiming to get lunch but they also served breakfast here and that just sounded really appealing trevor
went for an omelette we've got some bacon and some bread i went with something i had recently
a few videos ago it's a dominican breakfast it's called mangu which is like smashed plantains
it's kind of a fried egg look at that fried cheese fried salami oh yeah okay i want to try this mango
i got a little egg on there too and if you need a reminder that's the plantain
so yummy it's basically in a way similar to having like potatoes with your breakfast
back in canada it's like they got that starchy consistency to it but it just has a little bit
more flavor to it and it's so yummy all right it's time to try this uh fried salami this is
something i never think to combo up with kind of breakfast so let's give it a shot
it was so good i don't know how they make this so flavorful which is packed packed full of flavor
very tasty you can see kind of it's loud around here from those bikes you can see the texture
on there it's just cooked to perfection it's so good with eggs and we've got to try the cheese
over here as well i will volunteer to try the cheese i don't know if i could pick a best part
of this meal because every aspect is so good but the cheese at least every other time we've had it
has been so good it's usually like a fresh cheese very very similar to a halloumi it's usually quite
chewy quite dense a little bit salty we call it sometimes like the squeaky cheese it's totally
sweet it kind of squeaks in your mouth it's a good one yeah it's such good cheese it's like
i this aspect of like having it fried i guess in a frying pan it's a little bit crispy on the outside
but then it's kind of like like i said dense but um but squeaky it's like such an interesting
consistency a little bit salty i love that cheese i think it's safe to say it's one of our favorite
dominican republic dishes this is our second time packing up the car in this video this time we have
to make arrangements to get other people's luggage in here i know it might be a bit of a challenge
but we're on our way i guess further into the what do you call it the peninsula to pick them up
so as you guys know we've been to las terrenas before this was our second time stopping in there
but this is our first time actually driving past it so first time ever really exploring
the peninsula of seminar excited to see a little bit more of it you guys
have given us so many recommendations told us so many things we have to do
um so today the plan is that we're going to pick up our friends which is kind of right i guess
right smack in the middle and then we're going to las galeras where we have rented a villa for
a few days so excited to finally check that out we booked it a while ago and been looking forward to
staying there have you guys tried to guess who we are picking up yet i'm curious because i'm gonna
read the comments and if you are going to guest just say this is my guess and leave a comment down
below because you're going to see it very soon we haven't seen our friends in so long because
of you know the pandemic the situation so we're so excited today it's going to be a big reunion again
so the roads here are getting pretty gnarly very quickly i'm not sure where these guys
are sending us uh we knew they were washed out a little bit from the recent storms but we did
not expect they were going to be quite like this now i'm starting to wonder if this is
the right way to actually get them hopefully oh my god the roads
hello
how are you guys good to see you man let's hug it out it's been so long
we have vlog inception happening yeah like i missed this fancy thing going on here i love it
we got lots to catch up on hi so did you guys figure it out yet do you know who
they are we've been teasing the whole video who we're going to pick up yeah do our faces
give it away i don't know hopefully so allison and eric the endless adventure if you haven't
watched them we will put all the stuff in the description below oh you're spending a few weeks
two weeks with these guys we're gonna get up to some trouble yeah we're so excited
you guys are gonna have to show us the ropes though these guys know
know the dominican we know they're gonna be on a different level all we know is the jungle
yeah we're ready to get out of it well we're going to the beach
all right it's time to show you guys our villa
well welcome officially to our villa here this is a lot bigger than we thought and it's way more
interesting than i expected you can tell just by seeing the b-roll here it's quite something it is
super interesting like you said it's way different than i think any villa we've ever stayed in
it's way the outside space is huge there's loads of space let's see if we can give you a tour here
let's try to do this as quick as we can because there's a lot going on so the first thing you're
going to see is obviously this great big pool a must-have in weather like this hot and sunny
definitely going to be spending a lot of time in there one thing i love about this place is that
there's all these different stations around so you can see the house over there not sure what you'd
call that style it kind of looks like spanish maybe someone that knows architecture could tell
us what style it is really unique looking it's got lots of like loungers around some tables
it's gonna be fun well here's a whole other area i mean we could host a partner restaurant or
something in here look at this it's amazing we're going to be spending so much time out here there's
a whole bar area over there there's an outdoor kitchen opening there's a bathroom over there
in the bathroom yeah take you guys over towards the villa itself because
there's a great little outdoor space over here just look at this
this is nuts it's absolutely nuts and we're right in town so here you have your outdoor table i bet
you will be having all of our meals here maybe doing some work out here as well i would say
look at this definitely getting in that later this is our living room area has this whole
built-in sofa all the different colors of the uh cushions there it's very colorful it is super
colorful and then the kitchen is through here so spacious you're very dominican style oh what are
you making coffee to my cafe making really bad coffee for you guys is there alcohol in that
that's the question not yet there's also all the appliances you'll need in here you can see a full
size stove and we got fridge to keep all the liquids cool so it's going to do the trick
all right let's go into uh our room so it's a little bit of a mess because we just put all our
stuff down but there's basically two bedrooms one on top of each other so one once upstairs
one downstairs i think they pretty much look identical king size bed yeah it's a king-sized
bed and then the bathroom is through here yeah you got kind of this built-in stone shower
this is great yeah all right let's take you guys upstairs so there is another bedroom
but that is basically the same as our bedroom and then there's this kind of outdoor area you're
about to see last but certainly not least we have this whole terrace area which is basically like
an outdoor living room why are we gonna pick the spots this place has so many different spots with
really cool like hangout spots how are we going i don't know where we're actually gonna hang out so
anna and i were just talking this is like what the third or fourth place country we met up in
oh is this right fourth yeah what were they again we're not over it oh we're not going
to say because we have some questions for you the test test the friendship
no pressure he's not discussing the friendship it's testing previous videos
too so i don't even know where we are right now i don't know what date it is
let's go either okay question number one name the first city neighborhood and the bar we've added ah
well it was in a funny london town and there was a was it in club camden town i think was it
no it wasn't not it wasn't what was the city
it was london right in london yeah um what was the bar you know i can almost remember it
what is it like like a mic like mad dog red dog something like that
a little closer it's so close is the word dog in the desk we'll give it to them yeah that's pretty
the second question is a little bit harder what is the sweet
treat that all of us ate in athens and allison it wasn't your favorite
sweet treat in athens grease that allison didn't like specifically
there was a reason you didn't like it but we oh look yeah with honey yeah
and on to the third and last question this is actually going to be the second valentine's
day that we spent together the first one was in bali yeah what did we do to celebrate what did
we do to celebrate valentine's day because we've never actually celebrated valentine's day other
than this i guess okay good answer because that was a trick question because i have no idea okay
did we do something how romantic like we were in a restaurant the other day and
there was valentine's day like decorations around and it made me i'm like oh yeah we're
meeting up with these guys in february again so we would have spent valentine's day together
two years ago but yeah no idea so i thought of making a question to see if you guys knew the
we've driven through the town we arrived at this gorgeous villa and i think i can safely
say we're going to like it here i think so i'm looking forward to relaxing a little bit
we honestly haven't planned that much so but we are we are definitely going to go visit the famous
beaches that everyone keeps telling us about but other than that just really looking forward to
discovering it it's it's really really slow it's like a slow pace here and that's totally our
