Overview
Buscando aventuras, atardeceres, olas y muchas emociones. El primer día salimos desde Santo Domingo de camino al norte (Puerto Plata), parándonos en salto de Jima (Bonao), Los charcos de Damajagua y viendo el atardecer en el parque de Isabel Torres en Puerto Plata. Nos parqueamos en playa encuentro, donde armaremos nuestra propia villa alrededor de la van, con una fogata para cocinar nuestra cena. En la mañana del segundo día agarramos un par de olas en playa encuentro y luego salimos por toda la costa norte, pasando por las costas playeras, entre palmas, sol y cielo azul de Gaspar Hernandez, Río San Juan, Cabrera y Nagua, hasta llegar a Playa los Cocos en Nagua. El tercer día, después de desayunar frente al mar, pasamos por Laguna Dudu a darnos un chapuzón en las aguas cristalinas y tomamos nuestra ruta hacia la bahía de Samana. Alli nos detenemos en el pueblo para almorzar en el malecón y luego seguimos hasta Playa el Valle, para un último atardecer en una de nuestras playas favoritas de la isla. Hacemos un último yoga saludando al sol y nos disponemos a preparar nuestra última cena a la luz de la luna. El cuarto y último día nos devolvemos hacia Santo Domingo. En este camino de vuelta nos damos un último chapuzón en las aguas frías reconfortantes de salto socoa para terminar nuestro viaje en contacto con la naturaleza. Allí mismo preparamos nuestra última comida y terminamos luego el trayecto hacia Santo Domingo, aprovechando los últimos rayos de sol.
