Cuba

Cuba was nothing short of amazing.  Friendly people, some of the most beautiful places I’ve ever experienced, warm weather the majority of the time, beaches, caves, parties, parties in caves, and pretty inexpensive overall.  Cuba happens to also have been me finally catching up with my age in countries I’ve visited, number 33 (I’m 33 until the middle of April).  I would for sure recommend everyone go and visit Cuba.  It’s so close to the US, and flights are not too expensive.  Though the majority of people in the country are what we in the US would consider being poor, the people I met were friendly and didn’t complain.  Getting in, around, and out of Cuba was a piece of cake.  Of the numerous areas we went around Cuba, my top three would be: Viñales, El Nicho, and Havana.
