Traveling to Cuba
Many Americans have now clue that Cuba is actually a major travel destination for Canadians and Europeans. Because Americans are not allowed to travel to Cuba for tourism and news about Cuba is generally filtered through the “us verses them” prism, we don’t see news and information about what is actually going on most of the time in that country. But, Canadians and Europeans do and they also travel to Cuba to bask in the sun and enjoy the wonderful beaches of Varadero and tour the old city of Havana. Sure, it is still a communist country. But, I suspect in the next couple of years we will start to see the American policy loosen up.
