About me
Soy una joven de 27 años. Me gusta mucho hacer amigos de distintas partes del mundo y conocer sobre otras culturas y costumbres. A la misma vez, me encanta mi ciudad, La Habana, y enseñar sus lugares y su historia. Fui estudiante de Arqueología, mi pasatiempos son los hechos y los lugares históricos de la ciudad donde vivo, así como la arquitectura. Por otra parte, si así lo deseara, pudiese ofrecerle visitas guiadas y guía especializada a sitios de interés y a cualquier otro lugar de Cuba, según sus intereses. Pueden escribirme a mi WhatsApp +53 55829483 y con gusto kes hablaré. I am a young woman of 27 years.

Solo travel experience
I found Cuba to be very safe. I didn't feel fear for my safety as I have in countries like Costa Rica or Panama. The situation is very complicated in terms of the lack of basic products so you should bring your own medications and be prepared to adapt to the local food. There's always someone willing to take you on private transportation. It's a wonderful country with wonderful people.

I've been to Cuba twice. The second time, I spent two weeks in Varadero. I would go back. It's a wonderful country, and I felt very safe. I went out partying often, and we walked on the beach or the streets in the early hours of the morning. I never saw anything dangerous.

I went in May, and I felt very safe. It's one of those trips that, despite the challenges they face, I remember with a lot of joy. If you decide to visit Cuba, don't forget to bring your personal items and a little extra to share with them. Trust me, they will appreciate it. I brought sanitary towels, hand sanitizer, pencils, powdered milk, and other things. Just try not to give it out in public, because they will gather around you. Varadero is beautiful, and Havana has its own charm.
