Cuba is a
fantastic place, the people are proud and welcoming. Oh and the weathers fantastic! However sanctions mean not everything is available off the shelf, so improvisation is often required. And a large hammer... some how the locals get by, everything just looks a little different than you were expecting - Imagine Famagusta was in Italy for the visual picture. So if the smallest
status symbol in cuba is a wrist watch, the largest is the car. If
it got wheels it moves, if it doesn't move, it probably will soon. Recycling isn't an ideological dream in Cuba, its a necessity.

Sure Vaz 2 stroke diesel might
not be the most glamourous propulsion, but it is propulsion nether the

This once grandiose lot may not
look much, but crackling away
within was the distinctive sound of an arc welder - the strike to
swearing ratio 1:1... Where 50 years ago L'Habana socialites were
probably sipping the finest ground coffee, today the only grinding is
of crusty sills beneath ancient Lada's.

If this was your mini cab to the station, you would want to go to work - so much more karma than a 400,000 mile Skoda Octavia estate!
