Cuba advice

Here is some advice:

As someone who has been to Cuba a number of times I submit to you a couple of things you might want to consider. First try and be really objective and scratch the surface to reveal the REAL Cuba.

Don't keep your head in the clouds and be impressed by anything. The people there are captive subjects of a communist regime that does nothing for them.

Keep politics out of it, although frankly I dont see how that is possible.

The Cuban people are poor, uninformed, they have no internet, fed BS and are basically removed from the real world (which may not be the worst thing considering the condition of the world.)

Last time I was personally there was 4 years ago. I was not impressed and truly felt sorry for the people of Cuba.

I sincerely hope you see it for what it is. And don't forget that the people running that country are the same people who wanted to put nuclear missles 90 miles from our shores. When they are gone perhaps we can open our doors to Cuba again.

Have a safe trip.
