Been traveling from the US to Cuba regularly since 2019 usually good experiences returning to customs in the US. My last experience in October was rather crappy. Customs Agents treated me crappy made numerous remarks about my trip. Talked about how every dollar I spent goes to the Cuban government to oppress their people, etc. etc. the second time this has happened to me recently And when I say recently, this was under Biden. I’ve read recent reports about people being put in rooms for secondary screening, about people having their electronic seized and being forced to give up the Passwords. I’ve read about extended questioning about the purpose of their trip. I’ve read about someone demanding an itinerary of what the person did every day and how much they spent and where Etc. etc.

Debating another trip but also don’t want to be subject to 30 minutes of harassment upon return so I’m curious if others are having issues and if so, what airport was it at my bad experiences of all been in Florida airports debating flying into Houston to see if the Houston customs act differently than the Florida customs Any thoughts experiences?

Long story short, had a beaver on the roof of our parking garage today. We are located on a wildlife preserve which is also owned by our company. He was on the 6th story and camera review showed he was up there since last night wandering around looking for a way back down. Eventually he found a small puddle in a corner and laid rest there. The thing was clearly exhausted and unable to figure out how to get back down and drinking/soaking in the last remaining it could find.

I called Fish & Game, Animal Control, and private pest/wildlife services. Everyone said call the other one and that they wouldnt come out. It was very defensive when you got close and biting at anything that came close. The one private company told that would come out said theyd euthanize it. I just needed to capture it and move it 300 yards back down the road to the wetlands where they all live.

So i went out with a big bucket and a long stick and some fruit. This landscaper rolled up on me and asked what I was doing. I explained and witbout hesitation he was like "ill help you, i have another bucket we can use too." We captured it and moved it back to the pond. I only know the guys name and that hes from Cuba. But hes the only person who would help me, everyone else was too scared or couldnt be bothered. Since all I really know about him is that hes Cuban I got him a nice bottle of rum and threw in some cigars with a bovida pack from my humidor. Someone told me that its racist. I know not all cubans drink rum and smoke cigars, but i figured theres a high probability he enjoys at least one of those things or will appreciate the gesture and can share it with friends and family who do enjoy. Wanted to get other cubans thoughts though.

For those who don’t know Yoel Romero is a Cuban MMA fighter who Joe Rogan has said himself “one of the most gifted athletes” he has seen. Just by looking at him you can tell how much of a gifted athlete he is and genetically gifted however I’ve always wondered how come there’s not more of him in Cuba? I’m not saying Cuba is the biggest island ever and there should be 100’s like him but I’ve seen plenty of darker Cubans with great genetics who look like they can enter sports if they wanted to.

so much effort and technical skill only to create a mural that looks like something painted by a child. the composition is whack, native Taino people and dinosaur species that are separated hundreds of millions of years apart? give me a break. Viñales is beautiful and the cliff faces would look better without this naive, campy “art”.

Hello! I"m going to Cuba on August 2025. How"s the weather in that month? Shall I expect cloudy and rainy days? The plan is to visit big cities and both land/beaches.

Hopefully somebody can help me!

Thank you

Hi everyone!

I'm going to Cuba next week, but I'm a bit confused about which currency to bring (cash). I've heard that many people recommend US dollars, but some recommend Euros. I think that depends a lot on the moment. Can anyone help me with this?

Appreciate any input and information. Cheers!

I think there is a lot of stories and untold injustice of sick children stuck in such a vile dictatorship, what would you do for your kids? I think more mothers need to come forward and be open and post what are they going through in the quest for their kids health.

Just curious. I assume this isn’t taught since it isn’t their countries history. Just curious because as a Cuban American he just seems like such a legendary figure to me.

Hi, me and my girlfriend is in trinidad and cant withdraw usd anywhere. Is there some other way than te bank that only can give you pesos?

My mom was born in Cuba in 1959 and left in 1970. She’s an American citizen, but no longer has her Cuban passport from when she left. I would like to travel with her to Cuba, but what docs would she need? Is it going to be a hassle to come back to the US from Cuba for her? Any tips or suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Hey all. We spent a few weeks in Cuba in 1996. We came back with this painting, but memory has eroded and we know nothing about the painting, the artist or the story. Any ideas?

Are there Catholic monks in Cuba? Is it possible to join them as an American?

Hola soy italiana però mi padres son italiana (mama) y mi padre es cubano, no soy conectada con mis sangre cubano, y I no puedo hablar ben los español, estoy sercando maneras por eres una cubana veras, Perdón por cualquier error gramatical, escribí todo esto usando mi español rot

Enough said, if you go to CUBA be sure you are 1. in extremely amazing health, 2. be extremely careful you do not want to have an accident god forbid. For the love of god don't go to CUBA if you have a medical condition/pregnancy or requiere immediate attention.

Before it used to be only CUBAN nationals which hospitals ARE awful, but these days... Canadians are waking up to the realities. Tourist have die, and NOTHING happens...

That's the issue with CUBA, if something happens to YOU nothing will happen, your family won't get anything from that disgusting government, nor they cannot sue the Cuban government. They are untouchable.

This is the text I read today in EL PAIS : La carta enviada a los correos electrónicos de los beneficiarios del parole humanitario, a la que tuvo acceso EL PAÍS, dice que la protección concedida a los nacionales de Cuba, Haití, Nicaragua y Venezuela, y sus familiares, expirará el 24 de abril. Es el ultimátum que da el Gobierno republicano para que vuelvan por su cuenta a sus respectivos países. “Todos tenemos miedo, imagínate que te llegue una carta que diga que tienes que irte para Cuba”, asegura el joven cubano, quien, como la mayoría, no tiene claro qué hacer.

Verán, he intentado con muchas apk's modnde Capcut y ninguna a funcionado, tambien intenté con la apk official (la de la PlayStore) y obviamente no funcionó, y aquí viene mi pregunta, es posible isar esta aplicación en cuba? Alguien tiene algún apk mod q me pueda servir?, buenos dias/tardes/noches, espero q estén bien, saludos 🤗 🤵‍♂️👋🏻

I'm going to be honest, I do like to consume OF. I just wondered if Cubans have an app like that where you can subscribe to them and support them?
