2012 Cuba Report!!!!

012 Cuba Report!!!!
[attachment=6912]Hey All!

Time for my trip report in Cuba, I was there in June 2012 for 1 week. I apologize for any spelling errors or grammar mistakes. Im not going to proof read this. lol

About me and my traveling style
I am in my early 30's, From the Hollywood, CA. I am Asian/white but look for more Asian. I've been to Mexico, Brazil, , Panama, China, Hong Kong and Colombia (3 times). I speak a little Spanish, enough to get by but not enough to carry a long conversation. When I travel, I like to splurge and stay in nice places. I'm not one of those prissy fools that needs to stay in a super nice spot. I am very flexible and It also depends on whom I'm traveling with and where I am going. I don't mind staying in hostals.
I am not your typical American that only wants to eat at american restaurants, I like to try local foods on the streets and mingle with locals so I can practice my Spanish. While i was in Cuba, i went to 3 places. Havana, Varadero and Trinidad.

Getting in to Cuba with a US passport
I have a USA passport and you are wondering how did i get into Cuba?
I flew to Cancun, Mexico. From there, I flew to Havana. Cancun and Havana is only a 45 min flight. Once I landed to Cuba, went to immigration. Cuba will not stamp your USA passport!!! [Image: banana.gif] So there will be no trace to that you went to Cuba!

Another concern some of you will bring up is , When I flew back to Cancun, the Mexico immigration officer will stamp my passport. That means I will have 2 Mexican stamps! Will the 2 Mexican stamps will raise a red flag when i come back to the US? [Image: huh.gif] You have 2 options
1. When you get mexico from Cuba, you can ask the immigration officer in a polite manner not to stamp your US passport. You can say: "Por favor no sellar el pasaporte" (please dont stamp my passport) its a 50/50 shot. When I asked the lady, she refused, so I had 2 stamps in my passport. Next move:
2. Alibi! [Image: idea.gif] When you come back to United States, and if they ask why you have 2 stamps in your passport, you say, you took a tour bus to Belize (a small country south of Mexico, only 5 hours away from Cancun) When you take a tour bus, Belize does not stamp your passport. When you enter back to Mexico, they stamped your passport. that's the loophole!! [Image: banana.gif] Just make sure to some research on Belize. =)

When I came back to the US, they didnt even look through my passport. My flight landed in Dallas airport, and everyone on my plane were all Americans and College spring breakers coming back to the states from Cancun. No one has ever been prosecuted for going to Cuba. The immigration got better shit to do than bust people going to Cuba. So no worries! Follow my advice and you'll be fine!

Money
USD get charge almost 20%, fuck that! Go change your USD to CAD, which is almost the same.
EURO or POUNDS is fine, no need to change, your rates are slightly better than CAD.


Accommodations
You can have 2 options. You can stay at Hotels or Casa Particulars (private homes). I don't think any hostals exist in Cuba.
Casa Particulars is an awesome way to immerse yourself into Cuban culture. The government allows Cuban families to rent out their extra room for tourists. I stayed with 3 different families. All the rooms were clean and had AC. They cook for me and I enjoyed my time with them.


Havana
Before the communist revolution, this was one wealthiest city of Cuba. Beautiful hotels, villas, homes illustrates the finest in spanish architecture. After the revolution and the embargo, left the govt broke and most of the buildings are very old and in decay. Most of the cars are still from the 1940's. So you will see so many American classic cars being driven. it feels like you just took a time machine and went back to the 1950's. People are very friendly, alot of music, many tourists. very lovely city!!!

Varadero
1 hour from Havana. A Beautiful beach resort. One of the most beautiful beaches in the world. White sands, turquoise waters, grab a moijito and relax on the beach.

Trinidad
5 hours from Havana. Another beach city, the beach isnt as pretty as Varadero. Alot of colonial spanish colorful homes with cobblestone streets. Very pretty city! outside of Trinidad, there is a waterfall! very beautiful! I had a lobster dinner for $7 bucks!!!!!


[Image: Strip.gif] Women
When it comes to women, I do have higher standards than most men. Since i live in Hollywood, I tend to chase after models and wannabe actresses. I strive to aim for the 10's, even though they can be a headache. I don't discriminate when it comes to race. I prefer Latina and red bone sistas. I like fat asses and big boobies. Im a yellow brother with a black brothers appetite. =)

The women in Cuba were decent looking. I had high expectations. I think all the hot Cubanas are in Miami. In my opinion, the women in Cuba does not compare to the women of Brazil and Colombia. I figure since its poor country, everyone makes only $20 per month, things are very limited for girls to keep them looking good. I did see some stunners in Havana and in the nightclubs. There were all kinds from white, black and mix. I think the more attractive Cuban women had families in Miami that send them money. Swag up, smile, Brush up your Spanish and Learn Salsa Dancing and youll end up getting with Cuban girls and thats how i end up wooing a Swiss girl over.....

Getting Laid and the logistics
At my last night in Havana, I end up hooking up with a girl from Switzerland, who was visiting her sister that works in Havana. My friend hooked up with her sister back in Cancun. After the night club, me and my buddy went back to her sister's casa particular. It was late, and the family was asleep in the living room. My buddy and her sister went to the bathroom. Me and her had the bedroom, I was pretty warming her up, fingering, foreplay and began doing missionary style till BAM!!! my friend came in and told me we needed to leave because we woke up the family up and she cant have guests over. FUCK!!! [Image: angry.gif] I said kissed her good bye and exchange Facebook info.

If you are staying a Casa Particular, its really up to their discretion if you can bring guests or women over. Some might be cool, some might not be. If your are staying with a big family with alot of kids, i highly doubt it. Ask the owner. If you are staying in a hotel, you can bring guests over ONLY if they are non Cubans. Some hotels will not allow you to bring Cuban women over, you might have to grease them and they will allow it.




Cuba is a beautiful country! hope you all will travel there!
