Adventure Dominican Republic, Road trip to find a waterfall, finding great Guesthouses in Miches
Leaving Bavaro early in the morning with the Motorbike, in search for the Waterfall Cascada Blanca.
Driving though Macao, La Otra Banda, Higuey, El Seibo to find out that google has it all wrong.
But you can’t get wrong if you live on a beautiful island like Hispaniola.
.. and you can’t get lost neither .
So I continue my Motorbike adventure over the mountains, to Miches.
The recently opened Club Med Playa Esmeralda marked a new area for tourism in Miches.
It’s more remote and you can still rent a little house at the beach or stay at a very unique place at the river. Ideal for backpackers, volunteers or missionaries that like to travel a little and want to get to know the Dominican Republic a better.
Lot’s of adventures await those who dare to look for them. Magic places and lot’s to learn if you like. Playa Arriba en Miches is an endless stretch of white sand.. Travel the world, enjoy life, go for it.

Final Goodbye to Our Home in the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 Where to Next? ✈️
After 8 months of living in the Dominican Republic we're finally leaving and we're so sad to go.
Throughout the course of the video we talk about all of our favourite things that we did while in the Dominican Republic including visiting Cayo Arena and Las Terrenas plus meet up with friends and made new ones!
We also talk about the things we didn't get to do that we'll have to save for our next visit. And of course we'll be back again we just have no plans at the moment but probably in 2023.
We also reveal where we're going next as we head to the airport in Santiago and out of the Dominican Republic.

Exploring WILLEMSTAD, Curacao - Otrabanda Cultural Quarter
Hi everyone! This is episode seven of my Dutch Caribbean series in which I travel to Aruba, Curacao (Curaçao) and Bonaire. In this video, I explore the Otrobanda (Otrabanda) neighbourhood of Willemstad, the capital of Curacao.
Otrobanda is known as the cultural hub of Willemstad, and means the opposite side in Papiamento, the local language. The area was established in 1707, and is connected with Punda, which was established in 1634, via the Queen Emma Bridge.
The vlog stars with me having a Curacao breakfast at the hotel, where I also admire the view of Otrobanda from the rooftop. I use this opportunity to talk about the meaning behind the word Curacao and different interpretations.
I then hit the streets of Otrobanda for some exploring. I visit a few clothes shop as well as a place selling lottery tickets, and engage with some locals throughout. I also explore some residential parts and learn some interesting facts about some of the houses.
Hope you enjoy this video and find it informative! If you haven't done it yet, please hit the LIKE and SUBSCRIBE buttons - it really helps this channel to grow and allows me to bring more videos such as these to you, for free :)
Happy exploring!

Curaçao in ONE WEEK, February 8-14, 2023 I All the best places and activities!
With its delightful Dutch colonial architecture, thriving art and culinary scenes and excellent history museums, Curaçao feels like a little piece of Europe at the edge of the Caribbean. A little piece of Europe, that is, with glorious hidden beaches, wondrous caves, amazing snorkeling and diving, and a wild, undeveloped windward coast dotted with prickly cacti and whiptail blue lizards.
Watch my other videos from Curaçao:
The original inhabitants of Curaçao were the Arawak and Caquetio Amerindians. Their ancestors had migrated to the island from the mainland of South America, probably hundreds of years before Europeans first arrival. The first Europeans recorded as seeing the island were members of a Spanish expedition under the leadership of Alonso de Ojeda in 1499. The Spaniards enslaved most of the Caquetios(Arawak) for forced labour in their Hispaniola colony, but paid little attention to the island itself. In 1515, almost all of the 2,000 Caquetios living there were also transported to Hispaniola as slaves.
Established in 1499 as a Spanish launchpad for exploring northern South America, Curaçao was officially settled by Spain in 1527. It functioned as an island extension of Venezuela throughout the 1500s. As mainland colonization advanced, Spain slowly withdrew from the island. In 1634, during the Eighty Years' War of independence between the Republic of the Netherlands and Spain, the Dutch West India Company under Admiral Johann van Walbeeck invaded the island, and the Spanish surrendered in August the same year.
The Dutch West India Company founded the capital of Willemstad on the banks of an inlet called the Schottegat, the natural harbour proved an ideal place for trade. Commerce and shipping and piracy became Curaçao's most important economic activities. Later, salt mining became a major industry, the mineral being a lucrative export at the time. From 1662, the Dutch West India Company made Curaçao a centre of the Atlantic slave trade, often bringing slaves from West Africa to the island, before selling them elsewhere.
In 1795, a major slave revolt took place under the leaders Tula Rigaud, Louis Mercier, Bastian Karpata, and Pedro Wakao. Up to 4,000 slaves in northwest Curaçao revolted, with more than 1,000 taking part in extended gunfights. After a month, the slave owners were able to suppress the revolt. The leaders of the revolt were tortured and then killed.
During the 18th and 19th centuries, the British attacked the island several times, most notably in 1800, 1804, and from 1807 to 1815. Stable Dutch rule returned in 1815 at the end of the Napoleonic wars, when the island was incorporated into the colony of Curaçao and Dependencies.
When oil was discovered in the Venezuelan Maracaibo Basin town of Mene Grande in 1914, Curaçao's economy was dramatically altered. In the early years, both Shell and Exxon held drilling concessions in Venezuela, which ensured a constant supply of crude oil to refineries in Aruba and Curaçao. Crude oil production in Venezuela was inexpensive. Both Shell and Exxon were vertically integrated and controlled the entire industry, from pumping, transporting, and refining to sales.
In 1929, Curaçao was attacked by Venezuelan rebel commander Rafael Simón Urbina, who, with 250 soldiers, captured the fort. The Venezuelans plundered weapons, ammunition, and the island's treasury. They also managed to capture the Governor of the island, Leonardus Albertus Fruytier (1882-1972), and hauled him off to Venezuela on a stolen American ship, Maracaibo.
In 1954, Curaçao and other Dutch Caribbean colonies were joined together to form the Netherlands Antilles. Discontent with Curaçao's seemingly subordinate relationship to the Netherlands, ongoing racial discrimination, and a rise in unemployment owing to layoffs in the oil industry led to a series of riots in 1969. In response, the Dutch government introduced far-reaching reforms, allowing Afro-Curaçaoans greater influence over the island's political and economic life, and increased the prominence of the local Papiamentu language.
The dissolution of the Netherlands Antilles came into effect on 10 October 2010.[39][40] Curaçao became a country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands, with the kingdom retaining responsibility for defence and foreign policy.
