Cigars, Che, the Caribbean and Cuba
Well, there is nowhere quite like Cuba. We arrived and within minutes of our taxi ride we felt like we had experienced Cuba. Its like an outdoor museum. As everyone knows, Cuba has been locked in a very exotic time warp for over 50 years. The buildings ...

EN Tiring Havana
We took taxi to bus station where we were told by locals that the bus is broken and we need to take taxi. We thought it is the usual scam and not paid any attention. Few minutes later we found that the bus is really broken. Local Cubans organised few ...
Masacres
Es pot visitar dos ciutats amb uns noms tant diametralment opostos com La Paz i Matanzas? La ciutat no té res d'especial, però és l'avantsala de Varadero, un dels punts turístics del país per excel·lència i un dels punts que no vaig visitar pas, ...
