I managed to revive my old hard drive and transfer all its data to a new one, so now I have some extra photos from my time in the Dominican Republic. Most of them weren’t taken on a phone but with an actual camera. Unfortunately, some of the pictures were lost along with another hard drive during my moves, and some were destroyed thanks to someone’s clumsy hands (not mine, haha). So, out of nearly 3TB of photos and videos, I have about 0.7TB left—and not all of them are from the Dominican Republic. Maybe it’s not super exciting right now, but I’ll go through everything and see if there’s anything worth sharing.
As for the photo, it’s of some beautiful building from the Colonial Zone of Santo Domingo. If I remember correctly, it was built in the mid-1800s.
I'll continue the story tomorrow, I hope there will be more photos from Constance. 3 replies

So, what happened in El Arroyazo National Park? We ended up there completely by accident, like everywhere else on this trip — no plan, just saw a sign and decided to go. There was a trail along the river bed, filled with these huge smooth rocks. The river itself, I guess, was almost dry in the off-season.
We continued walking along the trail and eventually reached a waterfall. Our first thought, of course, was that we were definitely swimming here! But just when we were about to jump, a security guard appeared out of nowhere. Then this funny conversation happened:
-You can’t swim here!
-Is it forbidden?
-No
-Then we swim
-No!
-Why not?
-You just can’t…
-Why not?
...
-Ugh, stupid white people. Do whatever you want…
And he left! 😂 Naturally, we ran straight into the water. And… it was cold! Like, so cold it was burning! Trust me, I know what cold is – I’ve fallen through ice twice in my life! Turns out the security guard was trying to warn us in his weird way. 😂 4 replies
