Cuba way of life
You can live in Cuba with a Snowbird Visa and just keep renewing it. It is important to know that as an American you cannot own property or a vehicle in Cuba, you can only rent. You can only buy property, a car, or start your own business if you are married to a Cuban national.
Cuba has a rich culture which is largely an amalgamation of African and Spanish influences. The most prominent aspects are by far its music and art. Cuban music is known the world over for its lively and exciting pulsating rhythms driving many to their feet.
Cuba is a country of undeniable enchantment with its butter-soft balmy beaches, lush green countryside, and colorful colonial cities, which crawl with 1950s Cadillacs and overflow with the scent of rum and cigar smoke.
Some Cubans are revolutionists, they strongly support the Castro administration. While others are what the Castros call anti-revolutionaries, they oppose Cuba’s one and only party. But a growing number of Cubans, especially of the younger generation, claim a strong dislike and apathy for politics; maybe they’re just like many politically apathetic Americans or maybe some are scared of talking and/or feel hopeless.
Family dinners were often fueled by overwhelming political discord ignited by yours truly. “Everything is illegal here” – bank worker aunt. “Don’t even mention that damned revolution to me. I don’t want to hear it” – toothless father in law, ranting about the inefficient dental healthcare system. “B-but everyone knows Cuba has some of the best doctors in the world?” I stammered.
