Читать книгу Adventure Havana - Gabriele Martha Mauch - Страница 4

Bad sleep, loud at night, breakfast, super fruits, eggs, vegetables, toast, omelet, and so on, very positively surprised from the surrounding and what surrounds you, good enough for the whole day. Views from the room over Habana enjoyed, best weather, smooth sea, blue water. Cuban rum bought at Hotel, Cuba, aged 7 years in barrels and a city map too, to do so. Good mood. On the waterfront first Cuban rum enjoyed and the city. Move on, people are friendly and cordial and the city is quiet impressive. Linger on benches and linger with rum. All people are individual and have mojo, and friends look into your eyes and deep into you. Encounters are childish, children and Barbarossa and Principessa. Best atmosphere, warm and human and alive and fun and uninhibited. No inhibitions, interpersonal, free body language like ours, no cramp, people relaxed, many couples sit around for hours and talk and laugh, everyone harmonious and happy, funny, rum and cigars.

Old cars, impressive streets in shape and impressive how people live. People are egocentric, real, they are good to us. Both, we and them have FUERTE, Barbarossa and Principessa and Cuba. Woman on park bench asked where are shops? Very positive spirit. A few shops found, few but genuine products, good for us, we do not need much, but with rum, cerveza, wine, and cigar, life is a dream. Street stalls discovered with Comidas Rapidos, hamburger. Book stores at every corner.

People and Habana enjoyed and they are watching us. A cerveza and a coffee in first local bar, great atmosphere, Castillo de Farnés. A warm welcome and great fun with man and woman behind the bar. Salsa music, jump and dance, two funky women and the mood explodes. Pictures taken together and a heartfelt adoption.

Barbarossa is talking to Matthias an American from Los Angeles, married with a Cuban woman, he has a German passport and an american passport, speaks German, was previously married to a Mexican woman, from Baja California, marriage went wrong, the marriage with the first Cuban woman goes wrong too, she left and went to Italy with his daughter, lives now in Milano. Well, everything ends well, he has a farm and is happy together now with another Cuban woman, lives 30 minutes away from Habana, his zodiac sign is, Taurus.

It was great meeting him, the real people recognize the real in seconds and that is what it is all about.

Cubans, he says and describes them, huge creative potential, educated and intellectual. He is a photographer and writer. He says, many Cubans want to live somewhere else, it's too boring where you grew up, other Cubans want to remain in Cuba as they are so proud of the country and feel comfortable in the country.
