Havana

Posted On Thursday April 5, 2007 By M

Several years ago I went to Cuba with a university group for a conference. We spent 10 days in Havana. Shortly afterwards, the United States really started cracking down on people going to and from Cuba and the license we went under no longer exists. It was, without a doubt, one of the most interesting places I’ve ever gone to. But, it is changing and rapidly. And who knows what will happen when Fidel is gone. I’m sure Cuba will be around, but, the Cuba I saw in that moment probably won’t.
