Jessica's Journey to the Dominican Republic

Current Location

Don Juan Dominican Republic

Hey there! My name is Jessica Ricketts and I am teaching Spanish literacy to primary school kids in the Dominican Republic. I hope we can have fun together exploring the infinite abyss!

Logbooks

The weather this week has been notably rainy and stormy. I see lots of animals as I walk around town, especially chickens and dogs. Evocative music is played loudly in street corners.

Journals

Even though the United States and the Dominican Republic are different, both governments, locally and nationally, work for the welfare of their people.

Field Notes

Carnaval in La Vega is one of the oldest and largest celebrations in the Dominican Republic! If you are lucky enough to go, you might learn why it is so important to Dominican culture!
