Faces of Cuba

During our week in Cuba, we met some pretty interesting people along the way. Rachel looked after us in the Casa particular that we rented in Havana for 3 days. She lived next door in a tiny little place and earned a few pesos by looking after people. She is a widow in her 80's, her husband and herself used to run a small grocery store around the corner but it was taken away from them during the Revolution. One day, she showed us old photos and told us about her life, fascinating!

One day, we came across a dance school in an old derelict building. We ended up chatting with a few people from the dance school including the dancer below and learned about upcoming their projects. It was super interesting hearing people's stories.
