Description
Rhythmic dances performed by beautiful tanned girls in the midst of a breathtaking tropical night, the omnipresent scent of cigars underscored by the equally intoxicating aroma of rum, American "road ships" in vibrant colors. This is a common image of Cuba, as we see it in regular guides or on the pages of travel agency catalogs. However, Cuba is also an island of a colorful past, full of remarkable monuments and curiosities, as well as contrasts. The beautiful nature is a delight for the eyes, but it hides numerous dangers. The glitter of bars and tourist destinations contrasts with the homes of ordinary Cubans, and while there is plenty of goods in tourist shops, the selection in regular ones is very limited. Nevertheless, Cubans live in their own way, they are friendly, carefree, constantly in a rhythmic movement that is characteristic of them. This book is about all of this and many other things, describing not only appealing tourist destinations but also everyday life in Cuba from the perspective of someone who has lived there long-term.
