When you really want to go to Cuba
"Freedom Island" sounds extremely tempting and bold. I immediately want to take a risk and go to the other side of the world, just to see this miniature, but proud country.
Cuba is a juicy palette of colors, where there is a color for everyone to taste. They go there for the mood, Caribbean exoticism and spiritual uplift. The architecture of old Havana with its textured facades, narrow stairs and high ceilings conquers at first glance. Retro cars plying the central roads and horse-drawn transport create a feeling that we are being thrown back several decades ago.
Cuban cigars, Che Guevara, azure beaches, Havana rum, national reserves or Latin dances-everyone has their own associations with Cuba. We hope that you will have a chance to check how much they coincide with reality.

Arriving in Cuba, you can feel the influence of several cultures at once and see all the most incongruous. Not the richest country, living either in the past or in the present, charges with its sunny Latin notes to the fullest. And I want to live, love, create and meet the new day as cheerfully as noisy and freedom-loving Cubans do.
