🇬🇧 Why isn’t Cuba a place for Backpackers?
I love backpackers. You all know I do. I am one of them. I went to so many places on the budget. But Cuba...Cuba is not one of those places I'm afraid.

🇬🇧 Some Cultural Differences Between Cuba and Europe

🇬🇧 Living in Cuba: Shopping
Shopping in Cuba ain´t easy. Cuba still doesn´t have supermarkets and shops we´re use to. A lot of people would say for sure that is good and with all the western stuff Cuba would loose it charm. Would it really? Would the ability of buying everything you need for you family destroy Cuba? This is … Continue reading 🇬🇧 Living in Cuba: Shopping
