The story

My holiday, which began as a "holiday", turned out to be a turning point in my life................ Hi everyone, my name is Alessandro. A guy like many others who found himself in the Dominican Republic for a holiday, and ended up staying there to work:-). My intention was to take 3 months off (after 3 years of nothing but work), but after the first month I already had a job offer. A typical Caribbean job, photographer on excursions to Saona. Nice for the first month, but after that it becomes too monotonous. Always sun, sea and palm trees....palm trees, sun and sea, ugh, I couldn't take any more jijijiji...

As luck would have it, I know lots of people and I end up working for a very well-prepared real estate agency....I should say that in Italy I worked as an estate agent....unable to turn down the offer, because it was very good, I accepted.....and now, after almost 2 years of living here, I can tell you that for once in my life I feel truly happy. Here life is very simple....a life of the sea. The water is always crystal clear and of the most incredible colours. The people are very welcoming. You really breathe a Caribbean air..now I deal with rentals in the area and I know lots of people who come here on holiday with us..the island is very beautiful and unique of its kind. There are truly enchanting places......absolutely worth seeing is the island of Saona. An enchanting island of a thousand colours!!! Let's say the only way to grasp the beauty of this place is to come here.

But one piece of advice I'll give you,...take a holiday outside the resorts....fully experience the island, as I have been doing for 2 years!!!!
