Cuba

Recently I had an adventure in India for a month… everyone wanted our money one way or another… there was no space for meeting people and having friendships, other than meeting people with the prospect of us paying something… that is a bit familiar to my 10 years in Miami… so that was not shocking… what was surprising was that no one person knows where Cuba is… or what a cuban cigar is or Cuban rum… and even less Cuban music… so voila… I always thought my country was known accross the world for its contributions to this planet but not… Not many people know where Cuba is in India… you also need to know that many people in India know barely how to read… so it is understandable but curios anyways that Cuba does not exist in this country…
