Our daily life in Cuba is very varied. It usually starts with toast with tortilla, cheese, tomato, sausages, fresh juice, and coffee on the terrace of Fira’s House. Afterward, it might involve a cultural visit, a stroll through unfamiliar areas, lectures on various topics, or helping with household chores like cleaning or doing laundry.
From Thursday onward, although in Havana you can always find places with music and people moving their hips to the rhythm of salsa, we tend to go out more at night for drinks and dancing. La Fábrica del Artista (my favorite spot), 1830, Selva, the terrace of the Habana Libre Hotel, Casa de la Música… places where you can let loose, stay out late, and enjoy the Cuban vibe and atmosphere.
