One of my big goals during the around the world trip was to visit Cuba. I wanted to see the tropical island before the Castro era ends. After a cancelled flight, a detour from Mexico City over Cancun and hours of arguing with airport personal we finally arrived in Havana. A couple of hours late, tired and exhausted from the day I must have looked quite suspicious to airport security in Cuba. What made me even more suspicious was the amount of camera gear I travelled with. The cross-examined us and took apart my whole luggage. Yeah, I might be a spy… You never know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, finally we were allowed to enter the country which turned out to be one of my favourite places I have visited in the last year. David and I separated during the time in Cuba but I was never travelling alone. I met so many nice people during those three weeks. I could write a whole book about my stay but who would read it?! So instead of my stories I post some tips to get along:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
