OUR DIARY
29.5.2007Finally we’re going to leave. Plane starts at 10:40AM and with the fact that the Kabel1 Camera team (which’s producing a documentary “my new life XXL“) is awaiting us at 7AM for the today’s photo shoot its going to be definitely a long long day. Even we were waiting this day for so long…it feels strange to close the door at home for a last time.
3.6.2007
“Sadly” that the camera crew left us now…we can start now to organize our first bits & pieces in our new life. So much fun we had with the crew, so much far the `doing each scene tons of times & making untrue stories up…` kept us away from actually sorting the real stuff.
29.6.2007
So after searching as hell we really bought, about a week ago, a car in San Francisco d. M. (3h drive away). Our today’s hope…that we can welcome the arrival of our container in Santo Domingo.. In a bit frightened mood of what else we have to expect at the port and in which condition’s our furniture.
Parallel to that we keep an open eye on houses…cos we’ll definitely getting a huge space problem with all our stuff here.
The cable 1 docu got shown on the 24.6.2007, 8:15PM. Since that…we’re overload by e-mails and people watching out for us with the question of how we doing?!
13.7.2007
HOUSE FOUNDED…and the job of renting the corners Restaurant `Rubis` from 7AM - 12AM for Breakfast is running quiet well and even when not really what I’m used to…at least we both can do something. Unfortunately till my paperwork for the company (Tourism, Permissions…) is sorted…I can’t realize my dream of a Tour office. But hey…everything is in work…
29.7.2007
Unbelievable but 2 days ago we welcomed our container here in Las Galeras. Don’t even ask what we gone through…you wouldn’t believe anyway. Fact…we learned that the word manana means nothing more than “I don’t know, some when, maybe”. At least 4 times in Santo Domingo may not sounded loads, but with the fact that we worked together with one of the biggest and popular shipping company? It was 3 times too much we had to show up there for employer’s stupidity and silly things. And that we got him now, thanks mum and dad’s incredible help in Germany with contacting the bosses of each party. By the way…thanks to everybody helping us.
Diana moved to a beautiful little apartment near the beach and I will stay a while longer in the house.
21.8.2007
Somehow the heat and sun is not molesting. Even when we unloaded the container a month ago, or while staying the whole morning in the Kitchen…just nothing. May already used to? Or because we calm already the German stress into Caribbean relaxed!!!
1.9.2007
Diana starts to manage her spider phobic a bit better. To be honest…here we talk about really spiders. Up to diameter 20cm makes even me feeling a bit uncomfortable.
In a week Mum and Dad are coming to visit the first time. Exciting!!!!
16.9.2007
The both liked it so much!!! “Could may become the place in pension” they said!!!! Happy.
Within a week Diana and I are going to be neighbors again. As well I got one of the Apartments. Look really forward to, cos as beautiful the huge garden around the house is as much work it cost to keep him this way.
22.10.2007
Got my completely Company documents 3 days ago. With the right and permission of my Sunshine-Holiday it’s done a huge step to my dream.
31.12.2007
Las Galeras's Eve - at the end of the world - the end of the road - even funny. But let rise at 30 degrees the missile - - - has been what .....
Now we have flung our transitional job. It was a good time to in the circumstances here in the country to see further and to make contacts. It was always in the long run no state in a bar to workers, are in the cleanliness and cooperation is a foreign word.
Now we finally have the time to take care of care of our missing documents.
02.04.2008
Now it is once again back to Germany - 1 month vacation in the "old country" - We'll see what has changed and what the "friends" are still there.
29.04.2008
After a more or less break in the home is finally back in her new home. Diana has been exploring in my absence several rental properties for our own office and one is in the immediate choice.
01.05.2008
Finally here is a little faster than you think. Lease signed - Small property with office in the center (just before the supermarket). Looks after calming lot of work - and at 35 degrees.
31.05.2008
After a month of hard work we finally opened our own small business. The last papers are nearing completion.
31.12.2008
We are proud to look into our circle of friends won here in our factory. Slowly but surely it is in the right direction.
12.03.2009
Oh my God - two small dogs - will be for me - the sweet - thank you Diana
13.04.2009
Is it because it the 13th or is only because of our skin color - through a review by staff of the tourist authorities in Santo Domingo, we have to close temporarily - the papers are not ready. "
A consultation with our lawyer and the Tourismobehörde however made it all OK is - well, typical Dominican - a hand not knowing what the other one.
20.06.2009
Now we are talking directly to the competent authority in Santo Domingo before - what about our papers - no one knows of nothing - our current law is now back to his job and admits "I'm overwhelmed" - and pays us back our deposit.
21.06.2009
Miraculously, we learn a German lawyer in Santo Domingo to know who gives us through his expert knowledge and understanding of our situation important tips and addresses.
In this way, many, many thanks to Mr. H. and our mom - who is also always there in every situation for us.
05.07.2009
These are the dark side of the "Un-" civilization and its envious - my two dogs (and Cute Sweety) are dead in the office - guess is close - Poisoned -
07.09.2009
More and more information to get to us - Official documents are issued for many years no longer on the island for the Tourismobehörde Samana and we wonder - how the others work here - well, OK - Bribery is surely on the agenda - but without insurance and then working with tourists - but better fight ........
Joined forces with the big company Turinter - an existing for 25 years, companies that specialized in all the rice sector.
06.07.2010
It could have been a beautiful day. Slept well - the sun - and with good humor go to the office.
Unfortunately, today the office provides inside different than usual - so great - broken -
After the initial shock and a call to the police I looked first at what is missing - well, NEN blender, a car radio. So a blessing in disguise?
08.07.2010
From now on, a night guard at our office - a burglar can see - -
The first permanent employees.
31.12.2010
Another year around. This year we have met many new people and new experiences with various alleged "friends" made. A year in which we were able to strengthen our workforce by taxi drivers, tour guides and boat drivers.
Many new ideas are developed and implemented in part. So we have expanded our tour program even further and improved to meet every need.
Diana has now achieved with your own small restaurant in the same house.
Fixed setting of a travel agency employee DD, which is responsible only for flights, hotels, transfers and events. She is from Santo Domingo and should have the appropriate training. Na gaze times.
25.03.2011
Hardly "right" here and gone again - the staff has just received your papers.
After long talks about your work ethic, and the associated high compensation they had left the company again.
