My Homeland
July 26, 2013By: Ikenna Okoro

Outside of work there are many opportunities for enjoying oneself and self growth. For example…
Learning how to cook…
(I gave some to our security guards of the apartment and they were not impressed. If you don’t know how to cook, trust me its fine, your roommates can teach you. Oh and FYI, this was my first time cooking rice, I’m a little bit better now.)
Learning how to ride animals…
(I met him on an InteRDom excursion to the beautiful Altos de Chavon.)
Learning how to hold balloons…
(One of the interesting sights at the closest beach, Boca Chica)
The DR has it all.
