I want to share several stories that are happening these days and that demonstrate the kindness of people, that is, of ordinary Cubans.

It was a very old tree that had never bothered anyone. It is known here in Cuba as the Sassafras tree. It’s delicious scent gives away its medicinal properties.

Cojimar hasn’t had a cultural center for more than thirty years. The old one was based in an old colonial house on Real Street…

Recently the Winter Cat Expo was held in La Quinta de los Molinos, Havana, which I announced in a previous article. Here are my pictures. (26 photos)

I want to make you an invitation to the winter cat show, which will be this Saturday, December 14 and Sunday the 15th in Centro Habana.

I would like to tell you about a show that classical music radio station, CMBF, broadcasts Sundays at 9:30 AM. It is called SABES TU? (Do you know?).

The first thing we Cubans like to do in the morning, as soon as we wake up, is to drink a cup of coffee. Many even go to work without anything else in their stomach. 

In the mornings I often go out to try and look for a few things I need at home. I walk to where the shops are, sort some things out and do a couple of other errands.

Every morning, an 80-year-old woman wearing a long-sleeve shirt, work trousers, boots, hat, dark-rimmed glasses and rubber gloves, picks up a broom and dustpan that she has set aside just to catch the giant African snails that have invaded her backyard for over a year now.
