Celebrating a Milestone Birthday after Countless trips to the City of Columns
After nearly a decade of traveling to Cuba, many ask me, “What do you do in Havana, Cuba?” Believe it or not, Havana and Cuba never get old. The reason why is twofold: 1) Cuba is a fascinating place and 2) I try to do something new each and every time. I’ve gotten my toes done at a private nail salon. I went to the beaches of Playas del Este. On my last visit, for my very first time, I toured the Havana capitol, which has been under construction since 2010. The restoration team is almost ready to remove the dome’s scaffolding for a big birthday coming up in Havana, November 16, 2019. Yes, for Havana’s 500th birthday the Capitolio will finally be completed.

What would be an appropriate gift for turning 500?
Many think that a bouquet of sunflowers, a feast of roasted pork, yucca, and moros, or perhaps something else would be the best gift. However, I encourage you that the best gift is Travel to Cuba.

In the City of Columns, both the past and present coexist. However, those that travel to Cuba NOW get a preview of what Cuba 2.0 will be.
