Are there SKINNY, nice and educated / refined women in Cuba, or is it just more of the same?
There are certainly attractive women there. But, educated / refined women there aren't many or atleast they are far more difficult to meet than in other countries. The educated women who attend university for professional professions don't have money to go out and there future careers won't pay very much either. Think, maybe if they luck out they can pull a few hundred a month working abroad in Venezuela. So you won't find these women hanging out in discotecas.
You could of course go to the university but you will honestly look / feel ridiculous there because I've never met a Cuban whom went back to university years later in life. So basically the entire university crowd is under 25. Keep in mind that literally every foreigner there that's single is considered a sex tourist and you can understand why this is an issue.
I studied at the University of Havana and to be honest, the talent in the university was average at best. I wasn't impressed to say the least. The hot girls don't typically go to university in my experience. There's more money in being a ballerina, model or private enterprise. Consider this, a doctor may make 40 dollars a month. My gf, a ballerina makes close to 200 dollars a month. An ex-gf of mine a model made close to 100 a month. A hooker in Havana could pull 500-2000 in a month. (assuming shes high-end in the top discos not a street girl). This number could drastically increase if she has stupid sponsors abroad which a lot of them do. One Russian was apparently sending his gf 6k a month.
While most of these girls who are university educated, if they find work will make 20 dollars or less a month. Yes, rich families will often ensure there daughter / son goes to med school / law school etc. But these rich families have a lot of money coming in under the table, relatives abroad, passports, ability to travel (unlike the majority). They aren't likely to permit there daughters to run around with tourists...also because the rich families are very often
government affiliated and/or making money in ways that would be contra to the government. They will not allow nor want there daughter to attract attention/ scrutiny to them by hanging out with a tourist as this would run contrary to the government as it is viewed as prostitution. Problems could arise where they have to forfeit all there assets if they have made there money contrary to the government.
99% of tourists there are in relationships with what you would call strata 1/2 girls in Colombia that are uneducated. Probably 95% are dating prostitutes. I live there 6 months a year and watch the same thing over and over.
If you want to date pretty girls there are lots of pretty girls there, but there are also very high rates of infidelity. Unless, your living there...you aren't gonna be the only one 99 times out of 100. If you want to go on a sleeping with lots of girls spree you can by paying as the guy in this report did. Keep in mind, he was sleeping with prostitutes. Despite what your Cuban friends may tell you, normal girls aren't prostituting themselves as a one off thing. In Havana there is too much risk/ corruption to be doing that. So if your going for the cute, innocent girls whom will allow you to pay for play... I guarantee you they aren't innocent and have done this many times.
Canadians can stay 6 months at a time while other countries are limited to 2 months.
