Cuba - The island of Freedom

The stunning island Cuba is a true gem of the Caribbean sea. Authentic, colorful, buzzing country rewinds the time back to 20th century, where your journey starts on a Cuban convertible, with Chan-chan rythms on your radio. Don’t forget to pack yourself with optimism, creativity and curiosity and off you go. From vibrant cities to tropical paradise beaches and lush tobacco plantations, to unforgettable faces and rhythm, this country of contrasts will certainly stay in your mind forever.


This island of freedom smells like sweet rum and soft chocolaty cigars, sounds like the mix of Rumba and ocean waves, feels like no other place in the world. Every path in Cuba, noisy streets of Havana, colorful turns of Trinidad, are off the beaten track. Cuban coastlines stretch to infinities, its rainforests are untouched and the Caribbean wetlands are unspoiled. The undisturbed by huge buildings, skylines of traditional colorful facades of Casas Colonial and stunning cliffs with small bays, make Cuban scenery unforgettable. Juicy green tobacco plantations are true national treasure. If tobacco and fresh cigars are of your interest, Vinales is a perfect place to head yourself to, not forgetting to stop by small local plantations, where local women roll the cigars in front of you on their thighs, while singing and smoking at the same time. It will become not only Castro’s but your favorite place right away.


Cuba is not called the Island of freedom by chance. Besides the opportunities of pleasing your eyes with wonderful landscapes, Cuba gives you a sense of being free while still living in communism. Every visitor can explore their own Cuba and choose to be a Gringo or turn into a local for some time. Someone will see an island lost to time, but someone a country craving for changes. Cuba is a true source of muse and creativity, there's a sort of energy that turns every situation into something unexpected. Cuban People are another part of the Caribbean adventure. Here you can truly forget the rest of the world, by having zero or barely any access to internet, allowing yourself to fully dive into your adventure. In buzzing streets of Cuban slums, you can still come across the lines for bread and dairy products. But these wonderful people know how to enjoy life with no peso in the pocket. People can teach you how to sing, dance and enjoy life even when there is no reason to. Every street, every path, every stop in Cuba is a mini show of hospitality, curiosity, authenticity and free spirit. This country of contrasts has a big contrast and deep society gap, nevertheless Cubans always find the reason to sing and dance. Everything here seems a little odd, but so right at the same time. In Cuba the moments create the real adventures.


It might be the energy and vibes that make Cuban people extremely attractive, but it can definitely be a thing. Cuban men often call themselves Latinovikings, being flirtatious and bubbly at any age. . Luxurious hotels can always serve you delicious coffee, but it will never be the same as the one from small one-shop windows in Cuban half-ruined streets. No touristic routs will compare to hidden gems of hipster Havana. Only here the kids, not speaking English, can tell you: Cuba is peace and love. While being in Cuba, experiencing the tradition of coming together in the name of dance and music and against repression and confinement is the treat of your freedom experience. Extremely talented musicians will create a truly inspiring and astounding energy around you on the concerts of Local bands. Saturday night Salsa dances in Rosa Negra will free you soul from any existing negativity.


Delicious Caribbean cuisine, fresh juicy fruits can certainly hype your enchanting journey up. The flavors vary from Spanish to far African. Fresh taste of amazing Mojitos and crushed fresh Pineapples in Pina coladas take your taste receptors to another level, and creating a slight tipsiness by sweet rum, helping you to blend in the environment and feel the moment at its best.


Cuba is just different, and you need to find your piece of freedom there.
