What if I throw in a historic colonial zone where 500 year old buildings are up for sale and the tourists are mostly European? Sound too good to be true? Well, it's true! The island is the Dominican Republic and everything I've just said about it is absolutely true. As a spot to move to and live I know of few places that are better. It's one of a kind."
