Isolated
I’m
lost for words when I think about the two weeks I spent in Cuba mainly
because it was
one of the best experiences I have ever had. Cuba is like a whole different
world compared
to other countries it makes you think about the small things in life that
we take for
granted. For a country where the people do not make a lot of money they
seem to find the
small things to enjoy like the company of other people and the joy
and pride they
take in there work.
If I had one word to describe Cuba
it would be limitless because there’s no limits
on how I would
describe it. it was just that amazing the people the delicious
coffee the
friends I made that I now consider my Cuban family. Something that you
would not find on your typical vacation to
Latin America. I went to Cuba expecting all
the wrong things
and found something better. A piece of a puzzle that I had been missing
in my life for a
while.
From the translations that we did to
the places we would visit our some of the best
memories in my
chapter that will not fade, there like a VHS player on rewind. The
definition of
family is too vague if you ask me. Family is a group of people who not only
live together
but fight get along argue and from time to time have the deep life
conversations
and that’s exactly what I found with everyone FAMILY.
I also had the privilege of meeting
one of the most kind and funniest person on
this trip who
ended up being that missing puzzle piece that had been lost for a while.
Mabel Cuesta was
the reason why I went on this trip she’s not a professor to me she’s not
even my friend
she’s family my Cuban mother who took care of us and watched over us
like a guardian
angel thank you.
If someone asked me what’s it like
over there I would just say its something you
would have to
experience yourself. Just buy a plane ticket and go.
