I think it's wonderful people from other parts of the world (mostly) embrace our attempt at learning and communicating in their native language when we are eatery traveling or thinking of relocating.

It's too bad we don't do the same here in the US. I can't tell you how many times I see people from other parts of the world trying to communicate with us here in the US and are shunned, shamed, and many times ignored to even try. It makes me sick. I go out of my way to try to help, if I can. That's the hospitality part of me that comes through.

I'm relieved to learn the kindness and and embracing our trying stretches to the DR. Great article.
