St John's is closed. I was getting. 96 for 1 usd on the street. Police presence is very high now so you have to be tactical. La grunge has a few girls but guys are deep there. Now its probably best to work through a local until the police relax. Oh, and it's already hot there.Thank you Mr GoGo. I assumed the police presence would be big right now, and that it will persist for some time. Frustrating, to be honest. That said, theere are always options somewhere, perhaps La Gruta. Yes, a lot of guys, but on some nights, it's thick with both guys and girls. I used to hate it there but ended up having a couple of good nights in the end.

It's incredible how they completely eliminated almost all other options on La Rampa.

Well said Mr Gogo = Tactical.

Best single word description of the scene in Cuba (since 2004).

You have to walk around the block a few times to figure it out. Unfortunately its not point and click.

There are a lot of police and con artists.

MjT.These issues along with the fact that my body takes a few weeks to acclimate to the intense heat of Havana are two of the reasons why I have not and probably will not return. The few weeks I spent in Cuba almost 3 years ago was enough for me, got my taste and checked that box off my bucket list and off to greener pastures as they say.

Going to Havana tomorrow. Any areas I should stay out of for safety reasons? Any places I shouldn't visit?

I'm off to Havana this week for my third trip.

I arrive Saturday. Plan to hit Don Cangrejo, La Gruta and La Red (now that St John's is closed), Fantaxxy, Fabrica Del Arte, La Esencia, and Up and Down.

I plan to do some trolling on La Rampa, Malicon, and in Vieja.

I will also check to see if Mango in Miramar to see if it's still closed.

Let me know if you think I've missed any good spots and PM me if you'd like to meet up for a drink.

Stay horny my friends.

Hey fellas,

I have been to Havana many, many times, But it has been nearly one year, and I know the scene changes fast and in unpredictable ways.

Can any of you insiders suggest some of the best places to meet ladies these days?

I'll go ahead and say La Rampa, La Gruta, Parts of Old Havana, and the usual places like Don Cangrejo.

BUT -- are there any recommended bars or areas or clubs other than those?

I heard Saint Johns, the club there, is closed. Is that still correct? I assume it is permanent.

Any advice would be hugely appreciated!

I will report back after May.

MjT.I had a friend that just got back from Don Cangrejo and he said they no longer let single girls in. He went on a weekend and said it was absolutely terrible and no obvious jiniteras / working girls around and only couples. I don't know if that was just a temporary or permanent thing. You may try Fantaxy in Miramar , Mio Y Tuyo , La Red, and Up and Down on Fridays but it appears Havana has declined in the freelancer nightclub scene. We were going to go in May and instead rerouted our vacation to Panama and Medellin. Hopefully things will change in the future.
Uncle V, enjoy Havana, can't wait to hear your field report on places. Wondering if Don C is open for business as usual or if the cops have kicked out the chicas. I will report on Panama and Medellin.

The new El Presidente Miguel theíaz-Canel is a hard liner commie and he has targeted any free market action.

She also stated that very few girls are traveling to Havana from other parts of Cuba like they have in the past. The new El Presidente has enforced the law, and carry's a 30 year prison sentence, no chance of parole. 30 hard years in prison for these poor girls.

So, my future trips to Cuba will be anywhere but Havana, the police are super hot there. Good luck.

I was thinking about hitting Cuba next month on 4 May. The one thing I hate about Cuba Havana is the heavy police presence and the pressure they put on the girls. I think I'm going to just extend my days here. I hate to get there and it's everything you stated plus more.

Thanks for the post. I hope you are wrong but worried you may be right.

Where else in Cuba would you go? I thought the laws were even tougher outside the capital.Santa Clara and Holguin. As I have said in previous posts, the Cuban authorities consider a girlfriend or mistress one thing (legal) and a prostitute another illegal thing. Cubans are so wretchedly poor. A non-pro chica can be had for about the same price as a puta. The non-pros want plausible deniability to being considered prostitutes. This means getting them clothes, a load of groceries for their family, low end cell phones, etc should be substituted for cash. Tell the chica that you are on a "vacation budget" to signal what you're willing to spend. It works great for me.

We were going to return to Cuba and now we are headed to Panama and Medellin instead. This is absolutely horrible news for us.

For a trip to Cuba through Trinidad and Viales, in which city is it easier to enjoy the company of a Cuban chick?

I am sure that you cannot come across these services in Cayo Santa Mara, where you could also spend a couple of days, as it has isolated hotels without any people nearby, right?

And I don't think you'll have any issues in Havana.

Where else in Cuba would you go? I thought the laws were even tougher outside the capital.In the past, I have visited Santa Clara for three days. It was a weird place. When I walked the streets I always got a creepy feeling. No one would smile or say Hola!

And then every morning, just outside my Casa, (my room was on the second floor), I could look out over a small Park in front of a Catholic Church and this Cuban guy would sit on a park bench and masturbate as all the young school girls walked by on their way to school. Lots of giggling from the girls who seemed to be used to it. I actually got him on video, wish I could post it here. Public masturbation must be a thing in Cuba, I have witnessed this in Havana as well.

I also have stayed in Ciego de Avila for 10 days, which was WAY WAY to long. My GF found a chica friendly Casa owned by a Canadian women who is married to a Cuban dude. The name of the Casa is "La Casa Cubaquoise" . Nice little place with a pool and Bar, chica friendly, clean rooms but very small. Link - https://lacasacubaquoise.com/en/.

My stay in Ciego de Avila turned into my escape from Ciego de Avila. My girl was afraid to leave the Casa, and Ciego is much like Santa Clara, just a weird feeling when strolling around the streets.

To answer your question as to where to go in Cuba, I just don't know.

I think I may end up doing a 2-3 day trip to Trinidad if Havana gets boring.

I will try to avoid indulging in public onanism, no matter how bad the crackdown gets. LOL.

For those that only want Cuba to be point and click, you will be disappointed. For guys like me who view the whole island as unexplored by foreign guys and understand how hot the girls are in and out of bed, it's a hidden gem. All you need is basic Spanish and patience and the girls will eventually find you. Outside of Havana don't treat them like tricks, romance them. They fuck easily just give them something about yourself to like. Usually one date is all it takes, and after that they will fuck your brains out.

The girls are scared of tourists and don't want trouble so the key is to have a game plan to break the ice initially and get her to open up. Some guys can do it by learning the language and not being shy, other guys can do it by learning to Latin dance, even asking for assistance when lost or confused can get you an in. Ask about a casa or public transportation. Cubans are helpful. Don't come off as a pussy hound but present yourself as a nice respectful guy.

It may sound corny but before I go to Cuba I always visit my local flee market. Pretty dresses are 5 usd, cheap perfume sets are 7 usd and female night wear and outfits are 10-12 usd. These gifts are treasured for a Cuban girl that has nothing. Once she tells her friends you will be a super star. Enough secrets but for me Cuba is a hidden wonderland on this side of the globe and maybe the last of it's kind.

One even had the nerve to email and ask for a specific brand of perfume when she knew I was on my way to Santa Clara. I told her fine, but she would only get it after she earned it. And earn it she did. I bring older, but serviceable laptops, smartphones, brand name perfume, high quality sex toys. I'm just fine having one girl my entire trip. However, I had two on my trip back in January. I give the best and expect the best; I generally get it. I let it be known that I'm willing to pay well for quality. That goes for chicas, food, service, taxis and more. My road trip from Santa Clara to Cienfuegos was in a beautiful 1957 Pontiac with a beautiful 18 yr old in the back seat with me. I generally budget $2500 for a two week trip to Cuba. I go away feeling that I got my money's worth. I know what things cost; I also know when I'm treated like royalty and tip huge when that happens.

If you are busted with a chica and can show you had ongoing contact with her, you'll probably be let off the hook. If she is checked in with out and shown in casa registries most of the days of your trip, you should be OK. Having a "puta" in Cuba is a bad idea. Having a girlfriend or mistress is A-OK. To be on the safe side, use a taxi and don't be seen walking on the street with her.

Just trying to stay positive 4 days before I fly out there)).In my opinion the law changed many years ago. The cat and mouse game with jineteras has come to embody the "dollar mentality" that the Cuban government perceives as a threat. Their ethic of consumption, entrepreneurship, and autonomy is perceived as capitalism. The Cuban government doesn't want capitalism, but it needs our money and tourism dollars. When Fidel experimented many years ago and did not bother the jineteras, tourism from Europe and Canada skyrocketed; isn't this ironic. They want the jineteras to create revenue for the revolution but not for themselves. For the revolution, "sacrifice" is a key buzzword. This is the problem here and why the pressure is on the girls. They won't harass you if you prove she is your girlfriend though.

I don't want to get philosophical by any means but so long as Cuba remains a hardline communist country, working girls will always be harassed, controlled, and some will be made examples of, its just a reality. With that being said, I do not think they are enforcing the laws as much, but certainly they are "trying to slowly tighten the noose "on the chicas in Havana. One of the girls from my last trip confirmed this, and while I was there most of the girls at Mangos were scared of the threat of police (sure enough it was shut down ) , and St. Johns realized the same fate. Lastly it was Don C. What's next ? I really hope there are some hidden places to go to Uncle V. that have not been compromised yet .

This will be a nightclub that will always have immunity from the police for this reason. This place can only close for financial reasons such as lack of business, but that would take many years. I frequented it several times our last vacation, and thought it was very mediocre compared to Don Cangrejo and Mangos. Maybe some of those girls have gone here. I'm dying to hear if any of the places like La Gruta, La Red, Mio y Tuyo, and Up and Down (weekends only) are okay. Glad to hear they still are approaching you on the street and not afraid. Please report on the other nightlclubs if you make it to others.

You are very bold because I don't find the cops approachable. They are always focused and business like. Even a Hello, is rarely returned. Everyone should understand that its a difference between being registered and checked in. I always tell the casa owner my girlfriend is visiting and doesn't want to sign the book and be labeled. The casa owner response is usually they want to put her info in the book but not require her to sign. Most don't even bother as long as you aren't running several different girls and the neighbors don't complain. I like the way you spend money and fun, that's living life.

It's a thrill for a short time, but ceases to be fun after awhile. I had some really nice people in Cuba sit me down and convinced me that having a top quality chica diligently focus on making me happy is so much better than being a shit disturber. Fines for tourists can indeed happen for participating in prostitution. The non-pro chicas in Cuba are just so incredible, that I lost interest in pissing off the authorities. Many of the rules are for your own good. Before the crackdown, things such as tourists getting drugged and robbed happened. In Santa Clara and Cienfuegos many cops are indeed approachable. Many are happy to educate you on how to stay out of trouble. You can legally have a very good time in Cuba and fuck more than a rabbit.

After arriving at the airport and checking in my Casa I took a walk around Vedado to change money, get a bite to eat, and get water, rum and other essentials. Not much going on a Saturday at 3-4 PM. Lots of families around. A couple of Chicas sitting outside Sofia's gave me catcalls. But they looked a bit hard core for me. And I was very tired from the trip.

Went home to pay my Casa owner and sleep for a couple of hours. Set my alarm for 8 and it interrupted me right in the middle of some heavy REM sleep. I could barely get up out of bed but managed after an hour or so. But I didn't want to waste a Saturday night and I was anxious to check out the scene. Plan was to hit Don Cangrejo and a few other spots. Made some coffee, unpacked, showered and I was out the door a little before 11.

Got a taxi for 7 CUC and made it to Don Cangrejo a little after 11. I wanted to get there early as I had been turned away from there last time when I had tried to get in last trip because the place was too packed. Having heard from Studbucket that they were not lettings single girls in I made sure to ask the guys at the door and they indicated that single girls were welcome.

It was very dead and people were still taking their seats. There were a couple of solo working girls in the back already. But not to my taste. I grabbed a beer at the bar and watched the scene unfold. Mostly couples and normal looking folks on their night out. A few more working girls did filter in, but no one that really appealed to me. I'the say there were about 10 or 12 WGs hanging out in the back by the water before I left. Mostly in groups of 2. At one point a couple of younger cuties did walk in, but they were snapped up by some guys in the back before I made the decision to talk to them. I waited around until 12:30 and then decided to bail to Fantaxy. So they are letting single girls in. But the scene does not seem not as good as it was back in November.

Fantaxy was just way too packed. Too many guys and a very long line to get a drink at the bar. I pushed my way around the club to check out what was available. Again slim pickings. There were some girls there and they seemed interested. But only a few appealed to me and they were mostly already with guys. I did see one cute black girl that was alone in a corner and that gave me the eye as I passed her. But she was already gone by the time I had made my rounds and came back to talk to her. It wasn't getting any less crowded so I decided to bail for Up and Down. I think it was around 1 or 1:30 AM.

Up and down was much less crowded. But again the girl to guy ration was not all that good. Maybe two girls I liked, and one was bonafide gorgeous. But she was pretty aloof and I got the sense that she was acting as bait for her shorter and less attractive friend, who was very aggressive and kept smiling at me and even invited me to sit down at one point. Lots of Gringos there. One guy even had a big plastic shopping bag from Ross with him. WTF!! Were these the regalos he was going to use to pick up Chicas with at the club? LOL! I was making some eye contact with the Miss Aloof but I was tired and figured she was way too much work so, at about 2 I decided to leave and check out Vedado.

7 CUC taxi ride later I was in Vedado. Walked around a bit and there were plenty of girls on the street. A few approached but not really piqued my interest. I peeked in to St John hotel just to make sure that the disco was closed. The guy at the desk confirmed it was so and it seems this is now permanent.

I went into Gruta and it was packed. Not a lot of Yumas there. A few gringas picking up on Cuban guys, though. LOL. Good for them! I danced a little and the people seemed very nice. Muy authentico scene. But the girls there all looked kind of rough so I decided to bail and see what else was going on in Vedado.

I made my way up La Rampa and got some attention from some friendly girls but I was not ready to close the deal. Sat down with one cute young mulatta that said Hi to me just outside the jazz place Zora why Cuervo. She offered to go with me for 40 then suddenly came down to 30 CUC. Then she spotted the cops coming down the street and suddenly got up and walked away. I saw her again later as I walked up La Rampa. I did not approach her again as she seemed a little too pro for me. But I may try her if I see her again.

Police presence on the street was pretty high. Several patrols going up and down the street. However, the girls were still there looking for guys. So the same old cat and mouse game as far as I could tell.

I decided to go into Tikoa for a nightcap as I have had fun in that place before. However, not much going on there that night. I was the only Yuma there and the girls looked a little rough. Pretty much like a smaller version of La Gruta. A couple girls came over to dance with me and one looked OK but uninspiring. But then an older lady cut in and started dancing very close to me. The old broad really had the hots for me. LOL. She was with a larger family group. They had bene hitting the rum pretty hard and were in a good mood. Fun folks. Among them was a nice Cuban guy who works in Houston and it turns out the lady is his auntie. I gave his tia a few twirls around the dance floor and talked to the guy from Houston in my broken Spanish. Suddenly the lights came on. 3 AM and it was time for Tikoa to close. Houston guy grabbed their bottle and invited me to join them. But I politely declined and made my way home.

On the way home I realized I had forgotten to check out the disco in the Focsa building. I had never noticed it before and I had seen it earlier form the taxi on my way to Don Cangrejo. There were lines of people waiting to get in. Maybe this is where all the cute girls from St John and Don Cangrejo have gone? Who knows?

In the end not all that much action last night. I was just too tired and jetlagged to settle for a lesser quality girl or to put in the work on the one stunner I saw or to work overcrowded Fantaxy. I miss the ease and convenience of St John's last night. LOL!

I am really just writing this to give you guys an update. It seems like business as usual on la Rampa and in the clubs, though the number of hot girls seems significantly down.

Maybe they are only starting to come back after the crackdown? Or maybe they are engaged with family because of the May Day holidays? I hope to have fun finding out.

Stay horny my friends.

I was finally able to rest up and was ready for some action. I have been in contact with a pretty mulatta I met at Mango last trip but whom I never got around taking back to the Casa. Let's call her L. Thanks to Studbucket for helping me compose the messages I sent her before leaving for Havana. I decided to check in with her on my second day and invite her over. I called her on her phone but it was impossible to understand her rapid stream of consciousness Spanish. It was like listening to an Alan Ginsberg poem. LOL. After a failed conversation I sent her a message apologizing for my bad Spanish. I had pretty much given up on meeting her. But L was persistent and determined to meet up. She called me several times and I was finally able to communicate my address to her and to set a meeting for 10 PM.

Just before 10 she called up and I agreed to wait just outside my Casa for her to arrive. As I was waiting a cop walked down the street and stopped to sit outside what I think is a medical clinic that is just by my house. Kind of a stressful moment. But L came down the street and I was able to usher her in without the cop seeing or any further drama.

L was a lot chunkier than I remembered. Maybe she has put on weight. Honestly I don't think I would take her if I met her at a club now. In any I was pretty horny and she had a cute face and some nice big natural knockers. And she had taken the trouble to come to me from about 2 hrs away. I wasn't going to be cruel and send her away.

I poured us a couple of drinks and we enjoyed the breeze from my balcony, listened to some Cuban music form my laptop, and chatted a bit with the help of google translator. Soon we were making out and we moved things to the bedroom. Like most Cuban girls L is a great kisser. A very nice session followed. Intense and deep BBJ and sex in multiple positons. We went at it for what seemed like a very long time. Though she was bigger than I usually like her body was firm and she had very nice large natural titties that were very fun to play with. And very soft cocoa colored skin.

L was into it. Had me slapping her big ass very hard as I drilled her from behind in doggy. She was sopping wet and came at least 2 or 3 times. When I was ready to come I pulled out and jerked off into her willing little mouth. I hadn't cum in a few days so I let out a glorious stream all over her mouth, chin and face. One unexpected spurt even got her in her eye. She was a good sport and took it all in stride. We even had a laugh about the huge volume of jizz I had let out. Me telling her that she was muy caliente.

We showered and then had a few more drinks on the balcony. I was feeling all warm and fuzzy after our session and L was good company. Lots of post coital kissing, caressing and grab-assing. This girls is very warm and affectionate. After a while she had to go as she had a long trek home. OK by me. I paid her (perhaps a bit too generously) and gave her some chocolates for her family and a gift of a Nivea deodorant spray for her. She was very pleased with the regalos and we parted with a tender hug and. Her trying to get me to commit to seeing her again manana.

I was thinking of going out after but it was just too pleasant on my balcony; smoking a Cohiba with a nice glass of rum and enjoying the Caribbean breeze and listening to some Frank.

L sent me a nice message in the morning telling me I was "una persona especial" and that she hoped to see me again. She has been calling me all day on my non Cuban cell but I have not picked up. She is a very sweet girl and fun to be with. But I don't think I will see her again. There are so many beautiful Chicas out there to be had and she really is not my type. All in all a good night. Good to bust my first nut of the trip and to "plant the flag" as my friend Illusionheart would say. LOL. But I hope to do better in the coming days.

Stay horny my friends.

After arriving at the airport and checking in my Casa I took a walk around Vedado to change money, get a bite to eat, and get water, rum and other essentials. Not much going on a Saturday at 3-4 PM. Lots of families around. A couple of Chicas sitting outside Sofia's gave me catcalls. But they looked a bit hard core for me. And I was very tired from the trip.

Went home to pay my Casa owner and sleep for a couple of hours. Set my alarm for 8 and it interrupted me right in the middle of some heavy REM sleep. I could barely get up out of bed but managed after an hour or so. But I didn't want to waste a Saturday night and I was anxious to check out the scene. Plan was to hit Don Cangrejo and a few other spots. Made some coffee, unpacked, showered and I was out the door a little before 11.

Got a taxi for 7 CUC and made it to Don Cangrejo a little after 11. I wanted to get there early as I had been turned away from there last time when I had tried to get in last trip because the place was too packed. Having heard from Studbucket that they were not lettings single girls in I made sure to ask the guys at the door and they indicated that single girls were welcome..Uncle V,

I was there that Saturday. Unfortunately I didn't know what you look like. We had a table right in front of the DJ. I'm in the states now. What questions do you have? I might be able to answer them.

I might be able to answer them.Thanks amigo. No questions really. Or maybe better said too many to ask in one place. I seem to have gotten the hang of things now.

Hey guys,

Looking for help. I like to make spontaneous trips. I'm planning to book a trip to Havana tomorrow. I'm experienced have been all over Asia central america south america and Caribbean. I really enjoy mixing in food and culture along with my activities with woman. I have some general questions and looking for specific tips and would appreciate any help feedback. First I will explain my situation. I prefer to go out drinking and visit a few nightclubs until I find the girl who I just can't resist and will usually like to drink more and get to know her, sometimes I get lucky with non pros but don't mind paying a pro as long as it doesn't feel like a strict business transaction. I prefer more caramel or tan girls as opposed to black or white girls. I also like nice curves. I enjoy taking girls back for the entire night and having some morning fun. I don't mind paying going rate and giving a nice tip but I won't throw around money and jack up prices for other guys.

1. what should I say when asking for visa.

2. any suggestions on casas particulares that I can get girls into to spend the night, near the hot nightlife areas with girls. Are any on air bob ok? They seem to more like legit hotels with staff and everything. I don't mind paying for comfort and a nice place.

3. will my USA phone that works globally work in Cuba for internet etc?

4. where can I change money.

5. any suggestions on daytime activities are restaurants?

I will greatly appreciate any feedback or answers vets may have I just joined up because of my Cuban questions but have benefited from this site for years. PM its fine also or any looking to meet up I'd appreciate it.

Thank you uncle V. You just concurred my guesstimation of the conditions currently in Havana. I was leaving tomorrow but I think I'm going to let the area breathe a little bit more.Probably a good idea if you can delay your trip to do so.

I am currently traveling around to. See the country a bit. But night before yesterday (Wednesday night) the pickings on La Rampa were indeed very slim and I 3 nded up going home alone.

The night before (also on La Rampa) I was able to score a drop dead gorgeous white girl 1. 7 m tall. No exaggeration. But I met her by chance just as I was about to quit and go home. So the whole scene very inconsistent right now...

Is it best to avoid staying in a Casa Particular? My understanding is that these are the places registered to provide accommodations for foreigners, but they are also the places that require the woman to register upon entry, and will limit how many girls you can have come over. Am I correct? What is the recommendation? I am looking at AirBnBs.

What's the best bet? I am assuming near the Malecon would give the best walkability, as well as the Old City (Casco Viejo), but I don't know. I'd like a location where I can walk around and run into non-pros during the day, as well as high likelihood of running into pros at night. Anything close to restaurants, clubs, shopping areas I guess would be good! Thanks in advance for any information.

1. what should I say when asking for visa..I have been going to Cuba 20 or 25 years! Last 2 years have spent 9 months plus on the ground there, by some Cuba travel guides, you will be, mere "Cannon fodder" for the local girls! You do not say, can you speak, read, write Spanish?

Stay away from the strolling street hoes with 1,600 smart phones, 1,000 in clothes and 2 k in jewelry! Why would you pay for sex in cuba? Not necessary, you can meet non hoe, hoe's who for a drink, visit mom at the house, a pint of ice cream, better yet a kilo of chicken, let you stay a week!

Pretty much any girl or woman you see, gov employee store clerk or restaurant waitress you can have! I would be happy to take you, but I just spent 50 days there! Went well outside Havana, you have heard the story of the farmers daughter? Well I could have had the farmers wife, free, beautiful very young girl, (least an 8) married to a 30 yo 7 foot tall farmer who was out plowing all day, neglecting the plowing at home in el cama (the bed) she had a 4 year old, 3 year old and a nursing 6 mo old baby, was maybe 16, having kids since age 12.

My own cubana quickly figured out her game and ran her off, LOL! Not that I would have considered anything under 18 ! Which brings us to the next point, there are many [codeword902] (http://isgprohibitedwords.Info?Codeword=codeword902) girls strolling Havana, many, many, many and often they will have their sisters, cousins friends carnet, be warned! School girls of all ages, will express their interest in you, last trip on the city bus a 14 yo school girl got on in uniform, in passing my isle seat, elbowed me so hard, about broke a rib, getting off same thing, was letting me know something! Expected me to get off with her and follow her, of course I did not. Stay away from 23 and la rampa, WG's to do, walk old Havana, around the capitolio, down the Prado, don't jump on the first thing you see, get names and numbers, your cell will take pic's snap a picture so you can remember her type in a name, any girl you "Date" take a picture of her carnet (id) with your cell phone! This is for your own protection! Any girl who does not have one on her, this is a high crime in Cuba, accept no excuse!

IMHO stay away from the Malacon, go at night, maybe check out some girls, but to far to walk to the action, stay in Old Havana, or Havana around the Capitolio, find a casa on like Homestay.com that shows map locations. No walkabilty from the Malacon anywhere!

Thanks,

It is big, but not that big, you don't need to hit one spot, walk it! I hope I am not overloading you, personally I see nothing there that could interest you and the obsession, you may be acting on some old information, some nights there are no girls there at all, and it certainly is not what it was years ago, 100 hookers a night and per kilometer, no mas! To high police visibility!

About 6 to 8 months ago, strolling there one night I saw, (seated on the seawall) maybe 3 girls is all, one was a very good looking "10" abliet 14 to 15 with her "Chulo" pimp about 25. I watched as at least 75 year old Canadian (wanted to pick her up, took about an hour for him to get the nerve! Success!

Stay miles away from any girl with a chulo, got that? Why do you want to pay her to pay him? And have production line sex? On the malacon most girls there are going to have a chulo!

Rum, let me say it once more rum, "Ron" get a bottle of Havana club 3 year, it is dirt cheap, (but not to them) they drink garbage rum, bulk plastic bottle crap, it will impress the hell otta them, or want to be a huge hit? Get the 7 year, hit the malacon and find a group of regular non hoe girls, break out the bottle, this works anywhere in Cuba, want 20 friends instantly, pull out the rum! Don't like them all drinking out of your bottle, get some disposable plastic shot glasses before you go to Cuba and take them with you.

Stroll the streets way up at the end of the walking mall straight up obispo, past el Floridita, keep going across the streets up the walking mall till it ends, stroll all those streets (l to r) you will see / meet plenty of girls! Day or night! Bring your rum too!

If you read the last two pages it gives you a good idea of what's going on there now. Don't expect too much but you might get lucky. Havana is in transition right now with the new President and everyone on edge.

The best stretch is from intersection of Prado with Malecon to the intersection of La Rampa and Malecon. From these intersections walk into the city up the streets, there you may see girls. So, om Prado, on La Rampa and also further in Vedado closer to Hotel Riviera (1 ra and Malecon).

Penthouse letters hasn't crossed my mind in years.

The trip so far as been hit or miss. A couple of outstanding sessions. One so so. And a few nights of going home alone not finding anyone I really found attractive.

Last night was a Friday so I decided to hit the night clubs again.

Don Cangrejo RIP. Way too crowded with dudes and only a few girls explicitly on the game. Some normal girls in groups but you have to be ready to charm them. As they are more interested in partying than p4p. Need to put in time buy drinks and probably have good Spanish.

I've also given up on Fantaxy as well. Its consistently open every night as far as I can tell. But just way too crowded and I didn't see a girl I liked there.

I bailed on Fantaxy and tried Mio andTuyo for the first time. Not bad. Not too crowded. Girls there definitely on the game. A couple of girls that were interesting but no one that really stood out except this girl I met outside Fantaxy that I ran into again.

Long story short I ended up stealing her from right out under somen other guy she was talking with (sorry but she was the only girl I saw that night that was available and appealed to me). Maybe I should have let her pass. Turned out to be only so so in the room. No BBBJ almost had me end session there and then. But I soldiered on and was able to have a good time in the end. However would not repeat as this chick was kind of controlling and greedy. Constantly slowing down the pace and asking for more money for taxi, presents etc even before we started the deed.

I will. Give Don Cangrejo and Fantaxy a pass from now on. Mio & Tuyo is still in play. Best option seems to be street girls on La Rampa. However pickings there are often very slim.

Heading out there to try my luck now.

Stay horny my friends.

I hit La Rampa around 10 and wandered around. Lots of cute girls but all with guys. Either in groups or couples.

So decided to hit the clubs. Went to Up&Down. Nothing going on there except for the very hot girl I saw the night before. Lots of eye contact but something about her told me she was more trouble than she is worth so I decided to move on.

Went to Mio & Tuyo. Only one Chica there I liked and she was not returning my glances. Got harassed by some other girls but none my type.

I decided to bail and troll La Rampa one last time before sleep. Ran into a very cute Mulatta in front of the the Te fast food stand place Splits second decision to take her or not and I made the right choice.

Mulata with blue eyes. 18 years old and claims to be a med student Petite tight body and perfect natural tits. Smooth cocoa skin. A real find!

Good in bed too. Great and passionate kisser. And good mamada sin condon. Thank god! Plowed that tight 18 year old body in all the positions. Amazing experience pumping her in laying doggy while passuonately kissing her from behind. One of my favourites.

Finished with a nice bbj and then wanked all over her cute little face. She even put it back in her mouth for a few post come sucks before running to the bathroom to spit it out.

Cost me all of 40 bucks and a couple of cheap dresses I bought at the market in Thailand. Threw in a couple snickers bars as well. She was overjoyed with her regalos.

Hope to meet her again and try a TLN. She ticks all my boxes.

I am starting to think that patient trolling La Rampa yields the best results. You have to be quick on the draw and I think this has been ny main problem in the past. When you find that needle in the haystack grab it before it disappears!

Stay horny my friends.

It's good because you can talk with the staff and other students there and get an idea where to go dancing each night and what bands are playing where.

There are obviously lots of schools here and many will be less expensive than Casa del Son.

I don't know what style you are accustomed to, but you should know that in Cuba they dance Casino-style. This is not necessarily the predominant style of Salsa danced in many USA Or European cities -- it varies from venue to venue. Also most of the "Salsa" music you hear in Cuba will actually be more Timba than classic Salsa.

Have to agree with you 100%. Seems like you know the Salsa / Timba lingo pretty well.

Most people do not realize the difference between the two. Also, as you prolly know if you do Timba, there comes a time when the band goes into the "hook of the song" (that's what I call it) and as you know if she's into you, she'll turn around and start grinding her ass on you, huge turn on.

Hopefully 4 nights worth. So, I would like to also take lessons when I go to Cuba. I lived in Miami for 5 years (and did not take 1 lesson), so I am used to seeing the casino style salsa. Which I think is very entertaining!

The following report is full of gratuitous and indulgent description and not a whole lot of useful info. Personally I like these kind of TRs. But please skip if it is not your thing.

Last night I finally got a hold of my favorite girl from last trip. LS my 19 year old mulatta med student. We arranged to meet at 10 and of course she didn't show till 11. LS operates int he Cuban time zone. LOL.

LS was looking even better than before. She lost a little weight and her voluptuous little body is tighter and firmer than I remembered. She has some of the nicest and shapeliest titties. And a full little ass. Caramel colored skin and a bright small. She is my Caribbean doll.

We started making out right away in the elevator. Like most of the Cubanitas I've encountered LS is a passionate kisser. It felt so good to hold that tight little body in my arms.

We got inside the apartment and I mixed us a couple of drinks. We caught up a bit. I was happy to hear that she had not given up her studies and was making progress towards finishing her degree. I only wish my Spanish was better so that I could get to know her better.

After a bit of chit chat we moved to the bed and started making out hot and heavy. We started pulling off our clothes and I worked on those fabulous tits massaging them with my hands and licking and biting her cute brown nipples. My hands moved down to her pussy and she was already nice and wet.

She pulled off my shorts and started giving me an awesome BBBJ. LS takes it deep in her mouth and I could feel the back of her throat as she worked up and down my shaft in a steady rhythm. Absolute heaven.

I pulled out of her mouth, slipped on a Sagami (never leave home without them!) And entered her in mish. She was really into it moaning and bucking up against me as I thrust into her. LS is young but already a great lover.

We went through the gamut of positions. Cowgirl (so I could play with those lovely boobies). Lying doggy (kissing her from behind as I thrust deep into her). Some more BJ (this time with her lying on her back and me playing with her pussy. And then finally straight doggy with her on all ours on the bed (a cuatro patas). I had her positioned so that I could watch in the mirror as I pounded away at that bodacious ass, her firm 19 year old breasts jiggling back and forth.

Finally I was ready to cum. I pulled off the condom and she began to blow me. I shot my load all over her mouth, face, and neck. A stream of cum dribbled down to her chest giving her the proverbial pearl necklace.

She took me back into her mouth. I was feeling kind of under the weather earlier so I had taken a Cialis before our date and I was now still hard as a rock. The sight of her all covered in my cum was driving me insane. I pushed her on to her back, slipped on another condom and we started pumping and grinding away like wild beasts until she came. It felt so good to be back inside her, but it was just too soon for me to cum again so I faked an O to spare her any unnecessary further pounding.

We took a shower and I enjoyed soaping her lovely tits and ass. Afterwards we just hung out for awhile naked. I had brought her some summer dresses from Thailand as regalos and she just loved them. I also gave her a colorful pair of $3 headphones. She was so happy you'the think I had given her an iphone!

She seemed kind of surprised when I gave her some money. I think she would have been satisfied with the regalos. But I just couldn't do that to her. I know how hard these girls have it and I am happy to help them financially if they make an effort at pleasing me.

I am seeing LS again tonight and will surprise her with a gift of a serviceable old Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone. It's been clogging up my desk at home and I know she can make good use of it. Plus I hope that it will help us stay in touch so that it will be easier to get a hold of her when I am back in Havana.

Still feeling a bit under the weather I decided to make it simple and repeat with LS.

Before that I did decide to wander about a bit through Vieja a bit in the late afternoon / early evening just to scope out the scene. I started out at the Pardo and worked my way back to Vedado zig zagging through the maze of decaying buildings and vibrant street life. I got the "Hola" proposition from a girl up next to Prado and by a couple of girls by the Parque fe De valle (where people get on the internet). None of them were much to my taste. I need to figure out how to work Vieja next trip. It's kind of vast and a bit confusing (at lest to my mind). If anyone has any suggestion on hot spots please let me know.

My girl came over at 10:30. Looking amazingly cute like always. Sex was basically the same amazing drill as the night before. My sweetheart took it in la boca like a champ and kept sucking. No running to the bathroom BS that many girls do. I was pretty spent after coming and we cuddled for a long while instead of going at it again right away like last time.

She loved the phone. Just the look on her face when I gave it to her was priceless. But we couldn't get the wifi working with her Cuba cell sim card. We took it to a shop that sells tarjetas down the street and they said phone had to be rooted to work.

It turns out that Samsung has disabled wifi for Cuba SMS cards. What BS! I hate this shit. (As if the poor people of Cuba don't have it hard enough.

I'm pretty sure she can get it working but I was hoping to set up Whattsap, IMO, Cuba Messenger and other apps for her so that we would be able to stay in touch.

I've been taking the Samsung Galaxy J3 smartphones as gifts, about $70 bucks at BestBuy. Connects to WIFI no problem at the Melia Cohiba. I haven't had any bad feedback from the Chicas, just some good pussy in return.

Thanks for the reports Uncle V.

Thanks for the reports Uncle V.I am glad you like the reports.

The phone I gave my Chica was working fine and finding wifi for the National Cuban (Ecstesa) network until we put her CubaCell sim in. Then it was unable to find any wifi connection. Even when I took the sim card out.

I googled it and it turns out that the chipmaker, Broadcom has blocked access in Cuba. However, if you root the phone (allowing you to change the code in the OS) you can apparently make changes to bypass this block.

I may buy a few of those J3's at Bestbuy. Thanks for the tip. Were they able to work with a Cuban sim card in them?

I think there was a little metal adapter that they had to remove to accept the bigger sim card but it was no problem at all.

For my last night in Havana I decided to repeat with V, my 18 year old La Rampa girl. She was down to meet. Had she not been I would have been happy trolling La Rampa for something new. But a bird in the hand as fine as V is worth two in the Bush.

This time V showed up for our meeting a little early -- probably because of the "sorpresa" I had promised her. LOL. And she was looking damn fine in one of the sexy tops I had given her, She has a very small and petite frame but with the largest set of natural knockers imaginable. They barely fit into the dress. She had her hair down and had done her makeup a bit differently. I hadn't noticed it before but she looked a lot like Rihanna with those blue eyes. Later I sent her pic to a lady friend of mine and she made the same comment.

She was thrilled with her surprise regalo. A portable blue tooth speaker. She rewarded me with some soft and wet kisses. We moved on to the bed and I took off her clothes. I marveled at those amazing tits of her and those baby blues. Those luscious and firm tatas felt amazing. I could play with them for hours. V is a keeper rand I would be hard pressed to pick up a more attractive girl than her on La Rampa or anywhere else for that matter.

After making out for a while passionately she pulled down my shorts and gave me an amazing BJ while I lied on my back. It felt so damn good. I then stood up on the bed and had her on her knees as she worked my cock in and out of her mouth. This allowed me to catch the action in the mirror on the wall at the side of the bed. V was also stealing some naughty glances at the mirrors and I think it was making her hot.

I entered he in Mish and went through the gamut of positions. V seemed much more in to it and vocal than last time and I think she came as she rode me in cowgirl. I however was just getting started. We moved to lying dog and then doggy. V was still hot and and passionately returning my kisses as I took small breaks from slamming her from behind.

I had positioned her so that I could watch the action in the mirror while we were doing it in doggy. Like starring in my own porno! The sight of her tight little ass and heaving little breasts was too much and I was ready to pop.

I ripped off the condom and she took me into her mouth working me to completion. She took my leche like a champ and only ran to the bathroom to spit it out after she saw I was fully satisfied.

We cuddled naked for awhile after she came back and made small talk with google translate. I learned a little bit more about her and we exchanged FB. I was tempted to ask her to stay LT, but my Spanish is just so rudimentary that I think we would both get bored. I like to chat and joke around with my girls and not being able to do so is frustrating. I really have to work on my damn Spanish to take full advantage of all the treasures Cuba has to offer.

V got ready to go. I gave her her propina, the rest of the chocolates I had brought, and a summer dress I had. V knew I was leaving in the morning and asked me if I had any toiletries I didn't need. I gave her a big bottle of Shampoo I had bought a one of the state run shops (I still had some in a travel sized bottle I could use in the morning). These girls are so deprived that your heart really goes out to them.

We parted with a few passionate kisses and V made me promise I would call her again when I and in Havana again (no need to ask baby! And to buy her Zapatos. I'll make sure to get a couple of pairs and some summer dresses for her and my other Cubanitas when I am in Thailand this summer. That stuff is dirt cheap at the markets there and of pretty good quality. And the girls just love the stuff.

It was only midnight when she left and I thought of cruising La Rampa. But I had an early flight in the morning and was perfectly contented. I ended up pouring myself a last glass of rum and lighting up a Cohiba, enjoying the breeze coming of the Malecon as I reflected on what has been a very special trip.

Stay horny my friends.

Uncle V.

P.S.: Stay tuned for my last post about this trip where there will be more actionable intel and where I will write about the practical things I have learned from this trip.

Here are a few things I learned as well as a few things I am still a bit confused about:

1) La Rampa #1: I found cruising La Rampa to be the best option for finding girls. All the girls I have taken from there have been GFE and repeat worthy. This is a big surprise for me as I am usually a club guy. For example, when I am in Pattaya I generally prefer I-Bar and the other Discos over the Gogos and I can't remember the last time I took a girl from Beach Road. La Rampa girls may be kind of reluctant to talk and get comfortable when you first meet them on the street. But I think this is largely because they are stressed about getting in trouble with the cops, who are always close by. This kind of put me off to the whole scene at first. But I've found that they warm up very quickly when you get them back to the Casa. I have never had a bad experience with a girl I met on La Rampa. I can't say the same about girls I met on the clubs.

That said, it was always hard to find an attractive girl right off the bat. You kind of half to wander up and down for hours until you run into the tight girl. It takes some patience and you often have to make an evening of it before you get lucky. Be ready to act quickly if you do and snap her up. She won't be around the next time you pass by! I had at least three interesting candidates slip through my fingers this way.

2) Discos and Nightclubs Kind of Suck: I actually found the girls at the discos to be more hardcore pro and sharky then the girls I met on La Rampa. And they ask for a lot more upfront. 100+ CUC as opposed to 40-50 CUC for girls on La Rampa. Most of the girls at the clubs are older too. Service is also is not as good. Some won't' do BBBJ. May rush for you to put and the condom right away (I absolutely hate that! All Cuban girls seem to be good kissers, though. Going to the Discos itself is also more expensive. Drinks aren't all that pricey and I don't mind buying them. But I hate getting gouged by the taxi guys. The clubs are spread out and taxis are the only option. The nights I hit up 2 or 3 clubs I ended up paying almost 30 bucks in taxi fare. If you do pick up a girl at a club she may insist you guys use her taxi guy to get her back to your casa and you will get gouged even more. I had to pay the taxi guy 20 CUC to get a girl back from Mio why Tuyo. The ride there only cost me 7.

The clubs have changed for the worse from my last trip. El Rio at St John Hotel is permanently closed (the nice doorman told me they converted the space into conference facilities). Don Cangrejo hardly has any FLs anymore now it's more of a party place thought I think if you put in the work you can still get girls there. Fantaxy is way too packed and I didn't see any attractive girls there anyway. Plus its far to get to and the taxi drivers really try to gouge you on the way back. Mi why Tuyo is less packed, girls are pretty friendly, but no real lookers. Up&Down is small and has very few girls. La Grunge and Tikoa are fun but girls in there are kind of rough looking. The fresher, younger, attractive girls are out on La Rampa and Malecon though not all of them are obviously working girls.

3) I really don't know much about Havana Vieja or other areas. I've wandered around there a few times but have never had much luck, besides the odd girl approaching me. And I never found them all that attractive. I found the scene to be much better and La Rampa. If anyone wants to chime in with some info I'the appreciate it very much. I will be traveling to Havana again in the Fall and would be eager to give it a try.

4) Once I meet a girl I like and click with I am eager to see her again. I found it hard to get back in touch with girls I met. They almost never answer text messages (except for one stalker who sent me texts, IMO, and Cuba Messenger. LOL) and would not answer when I called on the Casa phone. However they did answer when I called them on my non Cuban cell. They even called me on that number, though it must cost them a fortune to do so. WTF? I never was really able to get a good explanation from my girls for why they did this (my Spanish sucks so I probably just didn't understand them correctly). Maybe they are worried about police surveillance? Strange. If anyone has any ideas for why this may be so I'the be very interested to hear them.

5) If you have any Spanish Havana is a gold mine. I sensed plenty of opportunities to approach regular girls outside the typical pick up situations. But my Spanish is still very rudimentary and I didn't' quite have the confidence to do so. For example. I was having lunch at my favorite little caf and there was a very hot girl reading a book at the next table. Not a pro. Maybe a student. She was really into her book and kept giggling. Hottest pure black girl I saw all trip. Shapely little coffee colored titties poking out of her yellow sun dress. I could not keep my eyes off of her. And she looked up from her book to smile at me a couple of times. But my Spanish is so bad that I couldn't find the nerve to start a conversation and ask her what she was reading and if it was a good book, etc. I was kicking myself later that I didn't give it a try. LAME!! I know. That said I've made some progress since my first trip to Havana a year and a half ago and my success keeps getting better. I can't wait to learn more Spanish and hit Havana again!

I hope this wrap up was useful.

Stay horny my friends.

Unfortunately I did not get the La Rampa experience (and you know that is my style) when I was there last August because it was Carnival. The street was shut down for the parades and there were more police than you could shake a stick at, so there were no girls. The club chicks were the main source during that time.


The clubs have changed for the worse from my last trip. El Rio at St John Hotel is permanently closedPica Flor was the club in St John.


Once I meet a girl I like and click with I am eager to see her again. I found it hard to get back in touch with girls I met.My main problem with Cuba was lack of communication. I could not even do something as simple as set up scuba diving because they only have internet at certain times. That stone age shit is for the birds. If I do ever return then it will be for scuba diving and to a place other than Havana.

Yeah Pic Flora. Don't know where I got El Rio from. LOL. In my mind its always just St John's. Picked up some good girls form there. But always pricey.

Internet is getting much better now. My casa even had a router and I could log on from the comfort of my home. I could use the owner's account and it only cost 1 CUC per hour. And available 24 hrs.

Girls are still mostly off he internet. Though I just got a FB message form my sweet Rihanna lookalike.)).

Thanks so much Uncle V, Great reports.

Little clarification, La Rampa / Malecon. How do you approach them, what is the best way without scaring them off?

How do you tell which are most approachable / available. I always think as a gringo I stand out and with limited Spanish would be tough.

Would it be better to ask them out for a coffee / dinner and then try to ease them into nightcap at casa?

Also on a technical note I understand after the trip that cubamessenger is a great cheap way to keep in touch with them.

Since it cost them nothing assuming they are on wifi and costs us minimal outside of Cuba. Or do they prefer other apps, email, text etc.

Did you notice them all having smart phones and would it make sense to bring a couple of cells to give them as gifts.

As far as approaching La Rampa girls I try to make eye contact then say "Hola!. " If she answers back she is approachable and very likely available. Introduce yourself, ask her name, compliment her on her beauty, then ask if she wants to come to you Casa "Quieres venir a mi casa conmigo? Some will ask right away "How much?" others not. If she is not into it don'e be an asshole and move on. There are plenty of girls.

It's that simple. It would be fun to take them for a drink or dinner first but they will be reluctant to go as they can get in trouble with the police. If you want to take it a little slower ask her if she wants to come to your casa to have a drink and listen to some music?

Cubamessenger is great but not every girls uses it. Also there were some complications for me downloading it onto one of my chica's phone. Like most things in Cuba it gets complicated there is no quick fix. LOL. I was never able to get her phone working because of wifi issues (dickheads at Samsung blocked wifi for Cuba on that model phone). But there are shops where the guys hack into the phone and can solve these and other problems. The folks down there are resourceful. If you meet a girl you like and want to stay in touch with I'd take the time to make sure that cubamessenger is properly downloaded on her phone.

To get onto the internet Cubans have to go to special designated wifi hotspots which are pretty common in Havana (usually in parks or public squares). Internet is not free. If they have an account with the national company ETECSA it can be as low as 1 cuc per hour. They buy tickets (tarjetas) with a scratch off access number.

1 cuc sounds cheap to us but its pretty expensive for them. SO the girls may not be online all that often. Once nice thing about cubamessenger is that it allows you to send them messages or even call when they are not online (though it will cost you).

Not all girls have cellphones or they may have a really old one with limited access to internet. So even an old serviceable smartphone makes a great regalo for your favorite Chica. I plan to take a couple of phones to give away next trip.

I hope this answers your questions.

Stay horny my friend.

Getting good quality cheap and quick meals in Vedado can be challenging. I found some good paladars but very few cafe style places. The food at Sofia or at the Havana Libre's cafe was awful, service slow, and the latter ridiculously over-priced.

Fortunately I found a very nice little place close to my Casa. Otra Casa. Good food, quick service and cheap. Location is a bit out of the way. At he very end of Call L by the Malecon (close to the US Embassy) . But its a nice outdoor terrace, bright and sunny with a cool breeze, and I saw some cute girls there on occasion too.

Food is nothing fancy. Breakfast, Cuban platos, sandwiches, and Pizza. Most dishes 3-5 CUC. Also very good coffee and smoothies.

Most everything I had was good. I didn't like the Pizza, but its very popular (it hast that weird mealy crust common to Cuban pizza). I'd especially recommend the fried chicken plato.

I found that some of the best value meals were in the little Chinatown area.

Lots of choice in a small section and pretty good food, especially fish dishes and the other items are standard so you know what you will get.

Note: some of the restaurants have Cuban, Italian, and a little Chinese mixed menus.

But it was a late Sunday afternoon so maybe not the busiest time. I've had American-Chinese, Thai-Chinese, and Malayan-Chinese food. I'm definitely curious about what Cuban-Chinese food tastes like.

LOS Amigos is one of my favorites, good food cheap!

Another good place is "Decameron" - http://www.cuba-junky.com/havana/restaurant_decameron.html.

Cost a little more but they have the best steaks in Havana.

And another is - "Razones" - https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g147271-d3607582-r453856386-Razones-Havana_Ciudad_de_la_Habana_Province_Cuba.html.

I'm in Havana right now. I've been here for 2 days now. I went to fantasy on a Monday and it was full with working girls. They were coming up to me left and right. Last night we went to hit a taxi stand on the malecon and about 8 working girls came up to use look to hook up. I didn't feel any of the girls were scared to come up to foreigners. I'll check back with more input later on.Could you tell me the exact esplanade / neighborhood height, more toward the old Havana area or the big hotel and embassy area?

This 19 year old chica had the finest pussy I've had in 30 years, good god almighty was she passionate. Shagged her 3 days straight. Horniest girl I have ever been around, she would lay in bed and masterbate every chance she had, especially after I got my nut, she would get herself off while I watched. Wound up having a threesome with one of her friends, her friend would later become my main squeeze. They are incredibly jealous of each other now. Lost track of this gem. Damnit! My main girl got in my phone and deleted her contact numbers. Little *****.

Hi JHappyDog, I am glad you liked the post and find it useful.

As far as approaching La Rampa girls I try to make eye contact then say "Hola!. " If she answers back she is approachable and very likely available. Introduce yourself, ask her name, compliment her on her beauty, then ask if she wants to come to you Casa "Quieres venir a mi casa conmigo? Some will ask right away "How much?" others not. If she is not into it don'e be an asshole and move on. There are plenty of girls.

It's that simple. It would be fun to take them for a drink or dinner first but they will be reluctant to go as they can get in trouble with the police. If you want to take it a little slower ask her if she wants to come to your casa to have a drink and listen to some music?.Thank you!

This is very helpful.

Hey Folks,

I'm thinking of coming down to Havana this weekend. Who's going to be around? I'm still going through the threads. However, are most hotels chica friendly? And, where is the best spot to lay my head?

I have been to Havana several times in recent years and each time I hit the usual spots: johnnys, casa de la musica, la maison, Q'bola, Bola Habana, Up and down, fantaxy etc. It has been hit or miss. Monday through Wednesday is fairly dead everywhere.

In recent years, the clubs have fewer chicas and the bars have more. There are exceptions though like Laura, Daniela Bolaos and Anita.

Laura I met in Don Cangrejo. She was wearing an insanely sexy red dress. I had to meet her if only for the dress. We start chatting and she hits me with the ridiculous asking rate of 120 cuc. I balked at that and was about to walk. She finally accepted the offer of 80. She claimed to be in her early 20's but I would guess probably late 20's. She is a little plump, you can tell with a few pound dropped she'the be very hot. At the casa she was nice enough. She showered, did some sexy dancing and twerking and so it started.

Later she stayed a while and we chatted. She told me about her tourist novio who she had and who sent her money and bought her a house. I guess they broke up. Or maybe not.

Daniela Bolanos I met in casa de la musica galiano. She was dressed provocatively, manicured fake nails, fake hair extensions, 168 cm, real big boobs. She has some swirly designed tattoo on her shoulder. Funny, it seemed the only word in English she knew was 'money'. Luckily she has a big chulo Yuniel Echevarria Dias who everyone calls him 'Ham'. Ham speaks English, so that was helpful considering my broken Spanish. Daniela is well known by the disco and bar crowd as a jinetera who, at 21, has been 'working' the discos for several years. Despite this she acts very sweet and innocent and actually is believable. She is a great lay and likes to do fetish things and does everything. After the deed, she was eager to go back to the club probably to take the money to Ham. As a lay, she was amazing, but be careful; I heard Daniela and Ham have swindled some tourists and they are involved in fraudulent and illegal activities. None the less, for me she is worth contacting again and I will definitely call her again next time I visit.

Daniela has two numbers (although not very prompt, she does eventually answer).

At La Maison I found a hottie Claudia, and spent some time dancing and flirting with her unfortunately I didn't get her photo. I was going to go home with her but at the last minute I noticed Anita. I had to let Claudia go and focus on Anita. Her body was what got me. I had to be with her. Anita and I talked for a bit and then head to casa around 2 am. Here's the funny part: as soon as we get to the casa she goes straight to the washroom and spends an excessively long time there. When she finally exits, the stench of a fresh dump is apparent. That's one way to leave a first impression! This chica really dampened the mood but what can you do?

She actually turned out to have a bit of a bad attitude, but her body was spectacular.

Great report. Looks like there are some places I really missed. More stuff for next trip.

You give a lot of details, full names and fotos. Do you ever worry about them getting in trouble with the authorities? Who knows? They may even be monitoring this site.

Doorman at St John told me the Disco had a lot of trouble with the cops and even had to ban chicas for awhile because so many punters posted their exploits there on the internet. When new ownership of the hotel toko over they turned it into conference space foguring it just wasn't worth the hassle.

Thanks for your insightful comment. It was well said and I agree with you. The Cuban authorities are more interested in getting a cut of the money vs arresting anyone.

I will also say that the only full name in my report was Yuniel Echevarria Dias (the fraudster, 'malandro' , pimp) and he is well known to the authorities already. Daniela Bolanos is his accomplice. My original post mentions my thoughts on her.

All of this aside, as has been posted by others, it is unlikely that this website can be accessed in Cuba.

I am thinking of taking a trip to Havana just after Xmass. What will the scene be like? Enough girls around to make it worthwhile? I'm thinking tha they don't' go back hoem to the provinces like in the rest of LA.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Here are a few things I learned as well as a few things I am still a bit confused about:

1) La Rampa #1: I found cruising La Rampa to be the best option for finding girls. All the girls I have taken from there have been GFE and repeat worthy. This is a big surprise for me as I am usually a club guy. For example, when I am in Pattaya I generally prefer I-Bar and the other Discos over the Gogos and I can't remember the last time I took a girl from Beach Road. La Rampa girls may be kind of reluctant to talk and get comfortable when you first meet them on the street. But I think this is largely because they are stressed about getting in trouble with the cops, who are always close by. This kind of put me off to the whole scene at first. But I've found that they warm up very quickly when you get them back to the Casa. I have never had a bad experience with a girl I met on La Rampa. I can't say the same about girls I met on the clubs.

That said, it was always hard to find an attractive girl right off the bat. You kind of half to wander up and down for hours until you run into the tight girl. It takes some patience and you often have to make an evening of it before you get lucky. Be ready to act quickly if you do and snap her up. She won't be around the next time you pass by! I had at least three interesting candidates slip through my fingers this way."Snap her up" sounds like really good advice for Havana. Judging by your posts, you like to shop around. You have incredible energy and persistence in looking for chicas. It's too bad the club scene has become problematic. Years ago, there was drinking, dancing and some sweethearts mixed in with the hardcore pros. Even if a chick was a bit pro at the casa, Cuban girls couldn't resist a good fuck. That would win some of them over to more of a GFE experience.

As a general rule, the "snap her up" is usually good advice anywhere in the world. If a girl's look and vibe hit the mark, I find it's usually not going to get better to keep searching that night. I've learned from experience to follow this rule. I've passed on some very beautiful girls who were totally digging my company because it was too early, too easy. And when I found a hotty who was great in the sack, it was a good idea to hook-up with her a couple times. Somehow great sex got even better.

One question. When I was in Havana several years ago, the girls would want to go home before the sun came up. I think they feared being seen coming out of the casa with a gringo. Is that still kind of normal?

Just a heads up report on a bar with a light up sign on the front that says: Casa Club 24 h. The last a of casa is turned upside down. The bar is at 258 Neptuno. I went there with co-worker buddies. We had been walking around the city and I recommended to them that we go to the Malecon and La Rampa, but they wouldn't listen to me and thought they knew everything. A local we talked to said we should come to a bar he knows about, and brought us to Casa Club. There were some fairly hot girls there who were aggressive, which is okay by me. But the guy who brought us asked what kind of drinks we wanted as we sat at some tables and he also got drinks for the girls sitting there. We never were asked if we wanted to buy drinks for the girls or not. We asked about the drink prices, asked about if we must pay for drinks as they come or start a tab. The con artists working there never would give a straight answer to these questions and they acted as if we should just have a good time and not worry about all that. I started to become concerned and I told my friends we should demand to see the bar bill. I told the friends about a similar experience I had in Egypt once that turned out very bad. We got the casa club bill. They charged us for the girls' drinks as well as ours and each mojito was equal to around 5 US dollars. So the bill was very quickly 30 US. Maybe we could have refused to cover chica beverages since we were never asked about them, but we didn't know how that might go down. One friend did later go off into the night with a working girl there, and he said he was able to talk her price down to 30 CUC including house fee. I saw her and she was pretty cute. So yes there are girls there but the people running the bar are out to scam you.

Happy hobbying out there.

Do you think the problem was going there with a local tout jintero guy? Do you think you would have avoided the drink scam if you had just gone there alone?

Can I just put a Cuban SIM card in my US-purchases iPhone and use it for calls in Cuba? How about calls to the US? Is it difficult to get a Cuban SIM card. I know in Colombia and Brazil there's a bit of drama in needing to have an ID registered in order to buy a SIM (I'm simplifying here).

Thanks!I don't think you can put a sim card in a iPhone, at least I'm not aware of it. Your iPhone will work in Cuba, just get ready to get screwed real good when you phone bill comes in the mail.

The best option is to buy a cheap unlocked droid phone from Best Buy or Amazon, I've been using unlocked J3 Samsung's. They work well with the Cuban sim cards.

Finding sim cards is no problem, no questions asked. Sometimes they even hand them out at the airport upon arrival, no charge...well, the card is free but you will have to buy one of those scratch off credit/recharge cards from ETECSA

That was my first trip to Cuba, the following 7 (seven) trips to Cuba I didn't use my US iPhone, I bought a cheap unlocked Samsung Galaxy at Best Buy, got on a plane and flew to Cuba where one of two things happened when I arrived in Cuba.

1) A sim card was given to me by the Cubans at the airport, they were handing them out like candy, OR.

Hey,

Reading some of the posts below and just wanted to let you know how this works.

If you are Cubano / a living abroad you can get a line (meaning a tele number) no big deal there.

If you are not a national then getting a Sim card your best bet is to rent one out, usually a couple of CUC a day + you need to purchase air time from Etecsa, since whoever rents you the Sim card will want the same amount of air time as when they rented it out for you to begin with. In other words it's $2 daily rent + air time which you have to purchase.

If you go often enough (in my case) I opted to have my own linea (tele #) It cost me $40 for the linea (comes with $10 air time included) which makes its actual cost $30 CUC. One caveat, if you have a linea in Cuba you have to activate it at least once a year, meaning you need to recharge such linea otherwise you lose your tele #.

After my last trip this past March I went to the Etecsa office and transfered such linea to my name, (someone I know had bought the linea for me) no questions asked, I handed the boss lady there a $5 CUC for her troubles so she can buy herself a merienda (snack), LOL.

As far as phones go, I have a Moto G4 which is unlocked and when I land in Cuba I switch Sim cards (Verizon is my service provider) and like someone said DO NOT use your service in Cuba since it'll cost you plenty.

Heads up, you can call the States using your Cuba Sim card by dialing 119 along with 1 + the area code and the number. I've done that several times and it's not that expensive. It's prolly the same for any other country in the world since each country has its own area code. Cuba's area code is 53, so if I were to call Cuba from the states I'd need to first put 53 and then the rest of the numbers.
If you want to get online then you need to purchase the cards to do that. They cost a couple of CUC for an hour's worth of on air time.

Here are the instructions for dialing the States from Cuba;.

Dial 119 (the international line access code), then 1 (the USA Country code).

Enter the ten-digit area code and phone number you wish to call, followed by the hash key.

Hope this helps.

I go to Cuba about 2 times a year now so I think I may invest in a line just to make things easier.

Can I just walk into the ECSTESA office and get a lien and sim card as a foreign national? I am willing to pay the 40 CUCs and the propina to get it done.

Happy hobbying out there.This story reminds me of one of the worst and dangerous scams I was ever played on, although this is a bit embarrassing to admit but know this was 20 years ago and I was a newbie, now 20 years of experience I learned.

So this was 1998 in the Czech Republic, in central Prague at a bar / disco with 2 hot czech women I met on the street early morning, after about 2 hours of maybe 4 rounds of drinks max I was presented with the bill of about $460. They had 2 different menu prices and I was presented with the second one when it came time to pay the bar, I had a choice to pay or my legs would be broken, no shit, I was escorted to an ATM by armed body guards. I paid and was released to go.

Live and learn and that I did that night.

No, you first need to have a local purchase the linea for you. In other words, they have to go to Etecsa and buy such line with their Cuban ID. That's how I did this. Once this was done on my next trip down I went to the Etecsa office with and told the lady in charge that I wanted to transfer la linea to my name since my friend had left the country. She did some paperwork and transfered la linea to my name, albeit with the propina. LOL.

So, now all I need is to make sure I recharge such linea once a year.

I don't think you can put a sim card in a iPhone, at least I'm not aware of it. Your iPhone will work in Cuba, just get ready to get screwed real good when you phone bill comes in the mail.

The best option is to buy a cheap unlocked droid phone from Best Buy or Amazon, I've been using unlocked J3 Samsung's. They work well with the Cuban sim cards.

Finding sim cards is no problem, no questions asked. Sometimes they even hand them out at the airport upon arrival, no charge...well, the card is free but you will have to buy one of those scratch off credit/recharge cards from ETECSATY I've use my unlocked iPhone Several times in Cuba. All I had to do was just pop in the Cuban Sim card. I've sold maybe about 4 unlocked phones to people I purchased from the US no problems. The iPhone SE is the number one requested. I've use my normal cell phone with international minutes at it while I was in Santiago Cuba. I didn't use it much however my bill went up maybe $75 to $125.

Is it cheaper to purchase Havana Club Rum at the stores in the airport or somewhere else in Havana? If somewhere else, suggestions?Everything is cheaper elsewhere. Look in local stores, supermarkets, casa del ron or at hotel shops. In this order.

AT&T is my service provider and my iPhone does work in Cuba, but it is very expensive!! Like I mentioned before, I came home to a $3000.00 (yes, THREE THOUSAND) after my first trip to Havana a couple years ago. My solution was to buy a cheap unlocked Samsung Galaxy and and find a sim card once I get to Cuba, works fine.

Hey,

Reading some of the posts below and just wanted to let you know how this works.

They cost a couple of CUC for an hour's worth of on air time.

Here are the instructions for dialing the States from Cuba;.

Dial 119 (the international line access code), then 1 (the USA Country code).

Enter the ten-digit area code and phone number you wish to call, followed by the hash key.

Hope this helps.

Mondo.Thanks Mondo!

Although the Airport had decent prices and there are tons of small 7-11 type stores or supermarkets if you want to consume during the trip.

Just a heads up report on a bar with a light up sign on the front that says: Casa Club 24 h. The last a of casa is turned upside down. The bar is at 258 Neptuno. I went there with co-worker buddies. We had been walking around the city and I recommended to them that we go to the Malecon and La Rampa, but they wouldn't listen to me and thought they knew everything. A local we talked to said we should come to a bar he knows about, and brought us to Casa Club. There were some fairly hot girls there who were aggressive, which is okay by me. But the guy who brought us asked what kind of drinks we wanted as we sat at some tables and he also got drinks for the girls sitting there. We never were asked if we wanted to buy drinks for the girls or not. We asked about the drink prices, asked about if we must pay for drinks as they come or start a tab. The con artists working there never would give a straight answer to these questions and they acted as if we should just have a good time and not worry about all that. I started to become concerned and I told my friends we should demand to see the bar bill. I told the friends about a similar experience I had in Egypt once that turned out very bad. We got the casa club bill. They charged us for the girls' drinks as well as ours and each mojito was equal to around 5 US dollars. So the bill was very quickly 30 US. Maybe we could have refused to cover chica beverages since we were never asked about them, but we didn't know how that might go down. One friend did later go off into the night with a working girl there, and he said he was able to talk her price down to 30 CUC including house fee. I saw her and she was pretty cute. So yes there are girls there but the people running the bar are out to scam you.

Happy hobbying out there.I think the name of the bar has changed but this has been going on for at least 20 years. I have gone into the bar as I wanted to see it but there were all sorts sorts of posts on a now defunct Cuba form warning of the bar.

I am not sure if they will let you go thru security at the airport with a bottle of rum (remember liquids are usually not allowed when going thru security)

Maybe someone who's done this in Cuba can chime in on this topic, I've bought rum once past security since I found there's not that much difference between the price there vs the price outside.

So, finally on to posting another report.

Interesting post about the bar on Neptuno. It is always good to get a heads-up about places like that. There's another bar on Neptuno, close to 'Casa de la Musica' Galiano, that used to be called 'Jaguar' but now is called Torro (has sign with bull horns). Daniela Bolanos Mata the scammer jinetera from my previous post, used to hang-out in this bar last year with her pimp boyfriend Yuniel Echevarria Dias (who everyone calls Ham). They are known to work together to swindle and defraud unsuspecting tourists. He calls her his 'malandra' (crook or thug). Having said all that, if you can keep the pimp boyfriend Ham at bay, Daniela is one hell of a bang. She is in the first photo wearing a white top.

The regular visitors to Havana will know of Johnny's aka Rio club. That is where I met Rachel (in the second photo). This was a couple years back. On my more recent trips, it was actually closed. But anyhow, I was at Johnny's and after contemplating talking to a cute petite white girl in a white dress, I changed my mind and decided to chat up Rachel. She seemed hot and had her ample bosom displayed prominently from her bustier outfit. I was hooked. I don't know what is going on sometimes because I was trying for a long time to make eye contact with Rachel or her friend but no dice. I remember the days when the chicas in Johnny's would grab at your arm as you walked in and you would have several vying for your attention. This time I had to make more of an effort. The cheesy show at the club finally wrapped up around 2 am and I had my chance to talk to her. We get to the casa and she asks me for a razor. WTF? Turns out she hasn't trimmed her Bush in a long time and needs to do some landscaping. She is obviously not a pro. I wait patiently and finally she comes out. On to the bedroom. And the action was forgettable, and I come to regret not going with my initial hunch to go with her friend. Rachel is in the second photo.

Raquel (not to be confused with Rachel) was a hottie I met in Cecilia. She was wearing a leopard print pair of pants. And who would not want to meet a chica wearing that? Back at the casa she was very friendly and nice. She had a crazy body and the session was great. Afterwards, we cuddled and chilled for a while. I told her I'd like to see her again in a few days and she said next time she's sleep over. That sounded good to me. I got my chance again when I saw her again at Cecilia a few days later. I kept my options open initially scoping-out the place for talent, but decided Raquel was the one for tonight. By the time we got to the casa it was already around 3 am. After another fun session she did stay-over and sleep, although I found it hard to sleep next to her. In the morning finally at 10:30 she got up and was acting very differently and having an attitude and being neurotic and jumpy. Maybe she had to be somewhere. ? Raquel is in the third photo wearing the leopard print pants.

Finally I have to mention the amazing, mysterious and annoying Vaneza (sadly no photo available). Met her in Capri Salon Rojo. She was one of the best looking finest chicas I met in my many trips to the island. I spotted her from far and made eye contact and motioned for her to come hither. She seemed to have this pesky leech of a pimp boyfriend attached to her. He was this very short Cuban guy who always looked and acted angry. He did her negotiating and as I recall wanted way too much. I stuck to my price and finally as it was getting near closing time he relented. As I walk in the early morning hours to my nearby casa with Vaneza, I catch a glimpse of the stalker pimp following us at a distance. We get to the casa and Vaneza and I start to get friendly. There isn't much in the way of foreplay but I must say she was absolutely divine. Body, face, sexiness all perfect 10's. After the session she freshens up fairly quickly and as I go to open the door for her to leave guess who is standing there right behind the door like a stalker. Yes the pimp boyfriend. I keep my cool and humor the annoying guy, I figure it's not worth getting upset. I even invite him in and offer him a glass of water. He again acted angry and neurotic. Anyhow, several days later I decide I must have Vaneza again, this time for an afternoon romp. I call her and set time for her to come to visit me. I keep watch from the balcony as she is arriving I see her approaching alone. Good sign. After I let her in, I decide to lock the gate at the elevator on my floor, so anyone who wants to get out of the elevator on my floor will have to have a key. We sit for a moment, I figure I want to chat for a couple minutes, offer her a drink and then some fun can begin. She wanted none of that she wanted to go to the bedroom immediately and get the session over with. At this point I told her I am not like that, I like to relax, talk for a few minutes, have a cold drink and some foreplay before getting the session started. She again persisted to rush me. That's when I told her if she's in such a rush to go she can leave now. She said fine. I open the door for her to leave. And who is standing in the elevator, on my floor, unable to get out of the elevator? Of course the crazy pimp boyfriend. Vaneza left empty handed. Serves her and her chulo right for being so annoying. Later that night I saw both of them in the line-up to get into Cecilia, they didn't even make eye contact with me. Interestingly she was wearing the same outfit as she had on that afternoon when she came to my place. Again, sadly I don't have photos of her.

If you pack rum in your carry on luggage, they will find it and take it. I know this first hand. I was able to get some some thru in my checked bag. But they could also find it there. My next trip, I decided to buy the rum at the airport upon my departure. They seal it in a clear bag and you will have no problems getting it on the plane.


Hey Rodeo,

I am not sure if they will let you go thru security at the airport with a bottle of rum (remember liquids are usually not allowed when going thru security)

Mondo.Rum is a bit cheaper at the airport duty free shop. I think a liter bottle of Havana Club or Legendario Anejo is 5 CUC there as opposed to 6-7 at shops around town.

However, last time the Rum selection at the shop was very bad. They mostly had Havana Club and only Legendario (my fave) in blanco. The Anejo is my favorite rum.

You won't be able to get the bottle you buy in the shop through security check (liquids rules). Last time I just poured the rum I had left over at the casa into a plastic bottle and packed it in my check in luggage.

Hey Uncle,

No, you first need to have a local purchase the linea for you. In other words, they have to go to Etecsa and buy such line with their Cuban ID. That's how I did this. Once this was done on my next trip down I went to the Etecsa office with and told the lady in charge that I wanted to transfer la linea to my name since my friend had left the country. She did some paperwork and transfered la linea to my name, albeit with the propina. LOL.

So, now all I need is to make sure I recharge such linea once a year.

Mondo.Thanks for the info. I guess I will get my casa owner or one of my girls to help me with this. How are the lines at the ETECSA office? Last time I was there I saw big lines whenever I passed these places.

We have never had any issues, we even bring or own bottles of rum in there, and they keep it behind the bar for us to drink from. Of course we share with the bartenders and the door guy. There are some females in there, but mainly not until late at night, after the other bars and clubs close.

I spoke with my friend that works there, and he did say, he is NOT surprised at all about this little scam. He says the owner encourages this crap, and it will be their downfall. Be safe out there guys, but don't sleep on the talent that does come through this spot.

Yeah, lines I was told were long and whoever is going to get the linea needs to be cubano / a natiional. Happens that I know people in la Habana and someone did this for me.

If you know people that you've met on your previous trips they will do it for you. Just throw an extra 10 CUC for whoever does this for you, that's what I did. Also, any chica you've been with and are in good standing with her will do it but you also run the risk of getting more involved with her. If that's ok then no problema, if it's not then don't go this route.

Remember, once you get the linea, you need to recharge it (put money on the balance) at least once a year otherwise the linea won't work after one year.

When I did the transfer to my name I went just before closing at the Etecsa office on the side of the Focsa building (calle M why 17) I didn't have to wait long and made my way up the stairs after asking in "English" some bullshit question and people in the linea had no idea what to say, so I just walked up the stairs and talked to one of the clerks where I got redirected to the boss lady who did me el favor to put it on my name.

Mondo.You no longer have to be a Cuban to get a line. Just go to the Etecsa office with your passport and you can get a line in your name. It costs 40 CUC and it includes 10 CUC credit on the line. I think you have to put money on it aprox every 11 months or you will lose it. If you get a line in a Cuban's name they can take it back from you anytime. They just say they lost their Sim card and pay 2 or 3 CUC for a new Sim which will also include whatever balance you had on it. Yours will no longer work then. This is a very common scam. LOL.

Mondo.No that's not correct. When you get a line it is good for 330 days from the activation date or from when you did the last top up. I believe after 330 days it is suspended and you then have 30 days to top it up or lose it. The line is always good for 330 days after the last top up. It does not expire at the end of the year.

If the line is in a so called friend's name they own it and can cancel it at any time or say they lost the Sim card and get a new one along with whatever balance you had left on it. The rules are all on the Etecsa site but of course in Cuba they don't always following the rules. http://www.etecsa.cu/telefonia_movil/contratacion_y_activacion/.

There are plenty pf websites other than AirB&be. I will include one which seems pretty easy to navigate.

Don't know if this is your 1st visit or you've been down before.

I like to stay in the Vedado section of the city and close to La Rampa, specially if you have no wheels. Then again that's my choice, I find I can walk to many of the places.

If you are looking for something on the high end of the price scale I know of one which is in the hood that I mentioned above and has 2 bedrooms and it's also a penthouse. In case you're interested PM me for the info.

Enjoy the journey and report back here.

BTW, if you google "casa particular" you'll get a bunch of sites with listings for apartments.

Also are there any good massage joints, not necessarily happy ending just like good cheap massages? Found one ad online where I'm guessing they come to you.

Haven't had luck with any dating sites that have any girls I find attractive over there. I guess there's a bit of luck to Havana visits.I can only speak about central Cuba in this regard, but my experience is that women that do massages are older (maybe 30's) and less attractive. Casa owners are a great resource about where to find a "novia" or "querida". My experience is Cubans are less helpful when you ask about P4P. Your options increase dramatically if you offer the the chica plausible deniability about being a "mujer de la calle".

TTM.This guy in attached video is in Cuba right now, he says he has been harassed by the police on a daily basis. He has some really good video's of Colombia and other mongering areas.

Like I posted a few months ago, my chica in Cuba told me the new Presidente was going to crack down on the girls coming to Havana.

I'm going to Colombia in a couple weeks instead of Cuba. Apologies for the poor sentence structure but got a hangover this morning. Hope you guys get my drift.

Police in Cuba - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuQgc-oMHDM.LOL, this video is a joke. Don't allow this BS to discourage you from enjoying the greatness of Havana. Now, I am not African, but I am black, and I have NEVER had any of the issues, this dude is whining about. Matter of fact, we have never felt threatened or intimidated by the police. The first time we was in Cuba last year, when we had the party with 30 girls, an officer came over on his motorcycle, to check things out, and wind up leaving with 1 of the 30 girls.

Havana is a wonderful place, with even better people. It may be possible, that Kenyans are discriminated against in Cuba, but in my eyes, black is black, and people are going to be racist towards the skin color, not the nationality.

I have been to Cuba many times and I have been harassed. Er, correction, my chica has been harassed by the police on more than one occasion, which wound up impacting me because I'm the one who has to pay, bribe the police with my money. BTW I'm a white guy from the USA, not that it makes any difference, but I find that Cuba is a pain in the ass when you want to take your chica ANY WHERE, whether it be a restaurant, the beach, stroll down the Malecon or wherever, it's a fucking hassle. Last time we were harassed, we were in Old Havana at a nice restaurant, the police were waiting for us when we exited the restaurant, fucking assholes scared the shit out of my date, turned into a major scene.

It's shit like this that has me looking for other destinations, Colombia is next.

It's a damn shame too. Havana is a great place, I can leave my house at 6 am in the morning, and be in Havana for lunch. WTF.

TBH, I had a hard time connecting the dots since the accent threw me off understanding and following his rhetoric.

I would never take any drugs into Cuba since I know authorities there would put one back on the plane to wherever they came from if found carrying drugs into Cuba. Having said that there is prolly drugs in Cuba, nonetheless, nothing comparable to here in the USA or most developed countries.

Racism? Yes, there is some racism in Cuba, but nothing like here in the States. Other countries, of course. Being black carries a burden in many places around the globe for sure.

One last thing, if I understood correctly he complained about being "questioned" for over 1/2 hour, right? Well, if one comes from Colombia via Mexico to visit Cuba that would set off a bunch of red flags for any custom agent who's handling you, being black, white, or any other ethnicity you can think of.
Guess you can understand where I'm coming from, right?

Late weighing in here, but I'd be careful with drugs in Cuba. The authorities are pretty strict on this kind of thing.

That said, I've hung around with some Cuban musicians who were smoking up almost constantly. But as a foreigner, best advice is to use caution.

As far as racism, it's very much present in Cuba. I've had several occasions where my Casa hosts said it was OK to bring in girls, "but no Negritas. " I'm not sure where the dividing line is on that as a lot of Cubans are mixed, but the statement struck me.

Mondo.You would be sent back AFTER your sentence is over. Anyone (specially foreigners) engaging in any way with drugs in Cuba is an idiot. If you think jails are bad in your country, in Cuba they are worst, Alan Gross before and after picture would give you an idea of what a 5 years in jail there could do to you, but then again, drug users are not the sharpest tool on the shed!

LOL, this video is a joke.No, it's not! The guy is telling what happened to him, and I believe him. Most of those in power there are prone to abuse their power, specially against black people. There was a case where THREE YOUNG BLACK CUBANS were executed ONE WEEK after they tried to hijack a ferry to come to USA and there was nobody injured! (you can Google it), you can bet that their skin color sealed their fate.

Of course that the police won't mess with you as long as you stay within the line but you can bet a few "pesos" that they know where you are and what you're doing all the time.

It is not nice of you to try to mock Marwa, who seems like a nice dude, after what he went through. Once again, as someone who was born in Cuba, I believe him!

I just returned from Havana last month and I have to say the pickings were slim on the streets. I didn't do any clubs, so I cannot comment on them. But the overall scene at La Rampa and Malecon was very weak. The hardest time I've ever had locating action ever. I put in a lot of walking miles on my Fitbit, LOL. The chicas were present, but very few and the ones present were either not desirable, asking for too much or would be gone before you knew it. The police presence has obviously had a major impact on the FL scene on the streets.

Other than maybe hitting the clubs for better luck, I would advise to either invest in a cheap unlocked cellphone or make sure the apartment you are renting has an available phone to use. I say this, because the way the chicas disappear from the streets, your best bet is to collect numbers as you go about your business and call them to come through as needed. Other than that, the prices were pretty much the same $30-40 cuc's, of course some will ask for more. Most will go down, but some won't budge. Also make sure you negotiate payment only after the session, a lot of the chicas want it upfront, more so than anywhere I've ever traveled to. I managed to barely get one a day and they were cooler than usual, but far from great. Nothing outstanding to write about.

Havana is a cool place to visit at least once (more so for sightseeing), but a very challenging place to monger. The whole cat and mouse game with the police can be a headache and the scene is very inconsistent. Other than that, there are definitely some beauties out there and the price is mostly right. I can't say the performances are that great, but others swear that it is when you find the right one. That's all I can think about to report at the moment, feel free to ask any questions or clarifications.

Thanks for the report. One thing that is a big factor in picking up chicks other than money is looks, body and youth. I've had success with gorgeous young girls for $40 to $50 with good performance but my buddy who is old, and average looking not so much. You see folks women have feelings too. Just my $. 02.

Have to agree with you wholeheartedly. Have to say I'm not a young pup, nonetheless, a lot of the chicas that we crave are not the hardcore putas, so when they take a look at us it's not like the hard core jineteras who all she is looking for is $$s and would fuck anyone anytime no matter how disgusting looking one is.

Remember on one of my trips, I met up with a monger and we hit the streets / clubs. Finally had to tell him to DTI a bit since he had the appearance that most of the non hardcore gals would not go for. Finally, he updated his dress style and remembered going to Fantasix and him picking up not one but two hot cubanas.

I do keep in shape and try look "appealing" and have had no issues picking up chicas although as I have stated before I look more for relationships instead of a quick fuck. No luck so far finding that cubana unicorn yet. LOL.

You might be paying and the girls know you are paying, but some of the less hardcore girls like to have attraction and perhaps live the allusion.

So, finally on to posting another report.

Interesting post about the bar on Neptuno. It is always good to get a heads-up about places like that. There's another bar on Neptuno, close to 'Casa de la Musica' Galiano, that used to be called 'Jaguar' but now is called Torro (has sign with bull horns). Daniela Bolanos Mata the scammer jinetera from my previous post, used to hang-out in this bar last year with her pimp boyfriend Yuniel Echevarria Dias (who everyone calls Ham). They are known to work together to swindle and defraud unsuspecting tourists. He calls her his 'malandra' (crook or thug). Having said all that, if you can keep the pimp boyfriend Ham at bay, Daniela is one hell of a bang. She is in the first photo wearing a white top.

The regular visitors to Havana will know of Johnny's aka Rio club. That is where I met Rachel (in the second photo). This was a couple years back. On my more recent trips, it was actually closed. But anyhow, I was at Johnny's and after contemplating talking to a cute petite white girl in a white dress, I changed my mind and decided to chat up Rachel. She seemed hot and had her ample bosom displayed prominently from her bustier outfit. I was hooked. I don't know what is going on sometimes because I was trying for a long time to make eye contact with Rachel or her friend but no dice. I remember the days when the chicas in Johnny's would grab at your arm as you walked in and you would have several vying for your attention. This time I had to make more of an effort. The cheesy show at the club finally wrapped up around 2 am and I had my chance to talk to her. We get to the casa and she asks me for a razor. WTF? Turns out she hasn't trimmed her Bush in a long time and needs to do some landscaping. She is obviously not a pro. I wait patiently and finally she comes out. On to the bedroom. And the action was forgettable, and I come to regret not going with my initial hunch to go with her friend. Rachel is in the second photo.

Raquel (not to be confused with Rachel) was a hottie I met in Cecilia. She was wearing a leopard print pair of pants. And who would not want to meet a chica wearing that? Back at the casa she was very friendly and nice. She had a crazy body and the session was great. Afterwards, we cuddled and chilled for a while. I told her I'd like to see her again in a few days and she said next time she's sleep over. That sounded good to me. I got my chance again when I saw her again at Cecilia a few days later. I kept my options open initially scoping-out the place for talent, but decided Raquel was the one for tonight. By the time we got to the casa it was already around 3 am. After another fun session she did stay-over and sleep, although I found it hard to sleep next to her. In the morning finally at 10:30 she got up and was acting very differently and having an attitude and being neurotic and jumpy. Maybe she had to be somewhere. ? Raquel is in the third photo wearing the leopard print pants.If I didn't know better, your photos couldn't be hotter if the Cuban tourist board posted photos themselves. LOL.

I am tempted by your photos, but it seems the accessibility of girls has been severely restricted in Havana over the last year. When was your last trip? What are your thoughts about the changes?

Hi Mates,

I know Havana very well. But I am trying to find out what you guys think are the best hot spots, especially after some clubs have been shut down etc.

Basically, I just want to know the best establishments and areas for picking up some good pussy these days.

Thanks!

They are professional with pimps or boyfriends watching them ioutside the club entrance- plus the entrance fee is 15 Cuc.

This place always catered to wealthy tourists staying at the National Hotel who are not familiar with the Cuban scams.

Thanks for posting bro, this threads has gone silent lately, maybe some bros here can't stand the heat. LOL.

Yep, agree with you, I usually stay a couple of blocs from SR and shy away from patronizing the joint since as you say most of the chicas there usually are managed and / or pimped and basically are looking for the newbie mongers with deep pockets that stay at the high end hotels.

Like $20 cucs low. Then the real negotiations begin. I've pulled up stunners from the clubs for 50 cucs. You have to remember the pimp, separate taxi, entrance and what not are all included in the price. So if she charges you $150 she's probably taking home $70. I disagree that Cuban women are last in looks. Cuba has all shapes, sizes and colours for women. I have banged from slavic looking girls to charcoal black looking ones and as thin as a Kenyan marathon runner to a Busty Nigerian ones.

Cuba has never been easy unless you were there before 2000. With this said I still think Cuba is one of the hidden gems in the world. I think the girls are hot looking and even hotter in bed. The best sex of my life has been in Cuba. Its completely safe for visitors and still in its original state. The people are strong and determined considering what they are dealing with on a daily basis.

Cuba is not a mongers paradise especially if you don't want to put in the work to find its jewels. If you put in the work by working on your Spanish, make connections and getting to understand the culture, you will reap the treasures it has to offer. This takes many visits to accomplish. If you strictly go to high priced rip off joints you will leave will leave with a sour taste as you will only encounter hustlers who will rip you off. Get cool with the locals by making friends and you will be fighting off pussy from normal girls who will fuck you silly.

In the future I hope guys will spend some time going through this thread pre-trip. Its some real good info there about how Cuba was and how it is now, then you will understand that Cuba is going to get good again one day but for now its low season for our sport. Even during low season if you have done your homework and made connections you can easily tap into the local scene and salvage your trip.

I'm not going to re post Mr Gogo's entire write-up, but he pretty much nails it on every point. Cuba is not a point-and-click mongering destination like so many other places discussed on ISG. It was like that before 2000, but after a couple dozen "crackdowns," those days are long gone.

If you want to go somewhere where there's no work involved in getting pussy, Cuba should not be on your list. OTOH if you're willing to hustle a bit and use your smarts, Cuba will reward you greatly.

I have banged from slavic looking girls to charcoal black looking ones and as thin as a Kenyan marathon runner to a Busty Nigerian ones.I mean we can agree to disagree on the looks what I eat don't make you fat LOL BTW I'm not really concerned about who get what cut but to start at 150 and come down to 130 is insane I just didn't feel like negotiating that heavy with someone that wasn't drop dead gorgeous I'm making an effort to contribute to the thread as seeing it was dead for a while and I had recently travelled there But I will say I'm happy and thrilled that you were able to enjoy Cuba happy hunting gents long live the hobby feel free to ask any questions.

Also I need some help renewing my membership thanks in advance.

Me, Mondo and several others have been giving updates on Cuba over the last year but people still go there expecting this mongers paradise. They just have changed leadership and are going through a transitional process that will take some time for the people to develop a new comfort zone and get back to normal. Cuba has never been easy unless you were there before 2000. With this said I still think Cuba is one of the hidden gems in the world. I think the girls are hot looking and even hotter in bed. The best sex of my life has been in Cuba. Its completely safe for visitors and still in its original state. The people are strong and determined considering what they are dealing with on a daily basis.

Cuba is not a mongers paradise especially if you don't want to put in the work to find its jewels. If you put in the work by working on your Spanish, make connections and getting to understand the culture, you will reap the treasures it has to offer. This takes many visits to accomplish. If you strictly go to high priced rip off joints you will leave will leave with a sour taste as you will only encounter hustlers who will rip you off. Get cool with the locals by making friends and you will be fighting off pussy from normal girls who will fuck you silly.

In the future I hope guys will spend some time going through this thread pre-trip. Its some real good info there about how Cuba was and how it is now, then you will understand that Cuba is going to get good again one day but for now its low season for our sport. Even during low season if you have done your homework and made connections you can easily tap into the local sceneGreat assessment and I appreciate your pointers I will agree with you in the sack they preform phenomenally can't Deny that I'm still not big on the looks.

Mr. Gogo is so on point with his report.

I just returned from Havana a couple of weeks ago, and once again, a GREAT trip. The women was plentiful in the Centro and Malecon area. I luv how these women don't always appear to be P4 P, but all it takes is a mouthpiece, and before you know it, the beauty is in your bed.

No problems at all with the police, matter of fact, it seemed like a lighter presence of them compared to my May trip. No problem waddling the streets, side by side with the beauties. BTW, Pico Blanco is back open, and a good time, also the Piano Bar in Centro was very on point! Women all over the place until 5 am.

Those that are true mongers, and don't need spoon fed to enjoy beautiful women, will have a blast in Cuba. Also, like Mr. Gogo says, the more you go, the better the reward, 10th trip coming up in November, Can't Wait!

It seems like the scene I am interested in is still alive: approaching fresh young college student age girls on the street in La Rampa and other areas and seeing if they are interested in coming back to my Casa for some fun at about 50 CUC.

Of course this is not as easy as the point and click mongering in other countries. It takes some Spanish and you will need to deal with the sting of rejection (though girls have always been polite as long as you are not lewd and crude in your approach). And also some patience as it can take hours of walking on the street to find a potential bedmate. But the rewards in terms of GFE.

Companionship are well worth it.

I'll be in Cuba in a few months and I just can't wait to get back out on the pitch!

Stay horny my friends.

For me hunting is almost equal to scoring.

If I'm in the mood to have a club girl I go to the German FKKs in the Frankfurt area. There you have clubs with up to 50 girls to go with for 50 Euro. Lots of stunners and they are all naked!

Hey,

Habana carnival August 17th thru August 26th.

Just wanted to give a heads up to any monger traveling to la Habana since starting tomorrow the carnival goes on till the 26th.

Not sure about what this means in regards to the chicas, but would seem to me this would make mongering easier.

Seems like the Malecon is the place where this takes place. Also, prolly lots of street closures and restrictions around the area.

If anybody has a take and been to one of this events please post your thoughts.

Mondo.I was there last August for carnival with Grownman and Mr Enternational. Heavy police presence but everyone was having a ball. Girls mostly hanging out not really selling pussy but if you are smooth you can probably get numbers and follow up later. Be careful because they have an alternative carnival the first few days with all kinds of freaks. Also huge crowds so don't display fancy phones or big cash to tempt folks.

A lot of negative posts in here.

Yes walking the malecon you see nothing. La rampa also limited.

To get good girls just flag down one of the hustlers in old town. I had a guy walk me and my friend to several houses, show us several women until we each decided on one's we liked. $60 cuc. The one I fucked ended up being the 19 year old daughter of said hustler. The next day a guy had us sit in his living room, brought several girls, eventually we liked ones, fucked them right there in his house.

Just tell the annoying guys you want chicas. They'll find you some.

The police are heavy handed towards the women who talk to foreigners. My experience was that they are not fond of men from the US, but others say they don't present any problem. In Old Havana, you can probably find men who will help you find a woman. I've heard the pedicab drivers are a good source. Along La Rampa, there are some free lance women, but they must be very discrete talking to foreign men.

IMO, there are many better places to go where the women are plentiful and plying their trade is not illegal. But, "curiosity killed the cat" and I had to go just to see what was there. I may return sometime, but only because it is so convenient to get there from Florida.

Exactly 3 years ago this month of August I spent 10 days in Havana, hot and humid as hell, my best advice is that I meet up with a very experienced guy right here on these forums and we struck a friendship and traveled together and hung out the whole time. My point is that if not for his experience and connections in Havana and his level of spanish skills my great trip could have been a bummer at best.

I don't know if I will ever return to Cuba as there are other places the tall man wants to experience.

I know Cubanas are hot and beautiful but IMHO, the hustle is not worthy. There are plenty of countries with better infrastructure where a monger can get women a lot easier, and where you can even date regular and hot women. The Dominican Republic is close by and in my opinion, Dominicanas are better than Cubanas. Or maybe I've been lucky.

Thank you very much, I am very lost in this topic.If I were to go to Cuba to monger, I would get out of La Habana, any other city would do, except Varadero. Find your own women, talk to them like you would talk to a woman in your country. Just socialize and see where it takes you. Good luck and let us know how it goes!

I just came back from my second trip to Cuba, and wow, it's changed so much from 3 years ago. This time, there were no girls to pick up on the Malecon. They told me it's because the heavy police presence drove them away.

Salon Rojo was dead. The girls available on La Rampa were ugly and fewer in number.

So there are a lot more girls you can pick up at the clubs. But the scene changes often I'm told.

So these are the active clubs you can pick up girls as of August 2018, and it may already be outdated by October.

A hustler pimping his own daughter, what a guy!Hey Rebel Monger,

Yes you have been very lucky in the Dominican Republic. I live in the DR 6 months out of the year and the other half in Florida and Cuba. IMO I don't even think that the Dominicanas are number 1 in their own country, the Haitians in the DR are way better. The Haitians are more trustworthy, sweet and serve the sex up better than the local girls IMO. My main girl is Dominican and my two side girls are Haitian and Dominican / Haitian and my main girl takes me through ten times more bullshit than my two side girls.

I agree that the infrastructure in the DR is much better for our sport. With that said a newbie who doesn't speak Spanish and is in Cuba would fare better being in Havana and using the local hustlers to tap into the local market and then having those connections to save time on future trips or until needed. Going to another Cuba city without Spanish and looking like a foreigner would probably make hunting more difficult. I have been to several Cuba cities and Santiago is the only one that has girls that will come at you. The others take time and skill (Spanish) to be successful. You said the other countries are better for dating women and I concur, but you have to put in time and be a boyfriend, most guys here don't have that time (on vacation not retired like us).

You have been around for a long time and we agree on most things like I also like to branch out and socialize while putting in time being a boyfriend but with Cuba the logistics and the Cuban politics can prevent us from having an easy task.

In closing you were surprised by the guy pimping his own daughter but in the DR I know over your many years there you have met Uncles passing you their nieces, brothers passing you their sisters and fathers passing you their daughters? Maybe not as pimps but believe me they are somewhere in the background lurking for a cut. I've been in this sport for ten years and had many relationships in several Latin countries and I have yet to find a Latin girl who is not needy and slick. Maybe its some good wholesome girls somewhere but my experience is even those good girls get pressure from the family to get money from the rich gringo and they eventually comply. Its family first even if the family is fucked up.

Respectfully yours Gogo.

I'd guess too much money went into the place and too many connected people have a piece of the action for that place to be closing anytime soon. It's also way out in Miramar. Like 110th Street far.. Way too far for your Centro girls, much less Habana Vieja to get out there.

It seems girls circulate between there and Fantaxy (which is just too packed and not too many good looking girls for me to bother. M&T is much less crowded and more laid back a place.

I took a very good looking girl light skinned mulatta from there that I had met earlier in the evening outside Fantaxy. 100 CUC. But she was way too pushy and too pro for my tastes. I prefer the younger student types you can meet on La Rampa or the Malecon.

Another club to check out is Don Cangrejo. Very popular. But a mixed crowd and I don;t think all the girls there are ready to go. It was good last November but only so so on May.

MjT.I had a long chat with the doorman at St John's about this when I was there in May and it was still closed.

He told me that the new ownership of the hotel, Italians, had decided to turn the space into a conference area because it had been attracting too much heat from the authorities. He blamed all of the attention the place was getting on the internet (maybe even here)?

Hey,

I was browsing thru different places in La Habana and came across a Facebook page for Pico Blanco at the St. John's hotel.

By browsing thru the postings I noticed the there is a gap from 2/14/18 to June of 2018, no postings in this period. Then after June, new postings appear relating to the hotel and some seemed like inside the club itself.

I should mention, like someone did before, I too on my last trip at the end of February beginning of March, stopped by the joint and talked to one employee in the lobby (doorman?) and he informed me the place was bough by Italians investors and didn't have a plan to reopen the club upstairs.

Fast forward to now and it seems like the club is open again!

Anyway, thought I post about this and hope someone will confirm soon either way.

Thanks for checking this place and confirm that it's indeed open.

It used to be joint where there was POF or action going on. Not really a classy joint but nevertheless it provided action that most here would check out.

Gentlemen, I have been going to Havana for about 20 years starting when I was around 20.

Obviously things have changed in this "scene," but I'm not here to cry about it. I love the city.

I have a question for all of you who know the city:

What are your favorite establishments / neighborhoods / etc for picking up ladies?

The obvious ones, La Rampa and Malecon, bore me at this stage. And Havana Vieja is fine, but I think centro would be best.

I am asking for a selection of the best daytime and nighttime places in centro to pick up ladies?

I don't think there are many "places" in centro from a touristy / or club standpoint. (I could be wrong on this, but I don't think so).

If you venture inside, away from Malecon, you will find no tourists, big streets and a rather non descript, somewhat commercial looking environment. (at least in area where I walked around).

If you're a confident and ballsy individual, chat the women up. I suspect you will find some amenable ladies.

But with respect. , if you think you can just walk around asking how much. I suspect you will soon learn otherwise. For the chat up approach to work, your Spanish will have to be adequately conversational.

if you're looking for more "jinietera" types, hit the bars/clubs in Miramar (e.g. El Miyo y El Tuyo there are more such as this one) but don't expect La Gruta prices from the women in there.

Last time I was in Havana (and it's been a couple of years), the taxistas were telling me the Miramar places were where all the "action" was at. (from a Cuban partygoer standpoint)

I don't think there are many "places" in centro from a touristy / or club standpoint. (I could be wrong on this, but I don't think so).

If you venture inside, away from Malecon, you will find no tourists, big streets and a rather non descript, somewhat commercial looking environment. (at least in area where I walked around).

If you're a confident and ballsy individual, chat the women up. I suspect you will find some amenable ladies.

But with respect. , if you think you can just walk around asking how much. I suspect you will soon learn otherwise. For the chat up approach to work, your Spanish will have to be adequately conversational.

if you're looking for more "jinietera" types, hit the bars/clubs in Miramar (e.g. El Miyo y El Tuyo there are more such as this one) but don't expect La Gruta prices from the women in there.

Last time I was in Havana (and it's been a couple of years), the taxistas were telling me the Miramar places were where all the "action" was at. (from a Cuban partygoer standpoint)YEah, I was just hoping for a few names of drinking or gathering spots. I speak good spanish and know Havana well, so I realize centro is, well. Centro.

Any suggestions will do, centro or not. What are the best spots these days!

Any suggestions will do, centro or not. What are the best spots these days!I have nowhere near the experience that you do but after 3 trips my impression is that the best option is to try to chat up girls in the street and public spaces. Be polite and try to strike up a conversation. Invite her back to your place for a drink. And don't be a dick and press the issue if she is not game. Unlike the US women won't get offended if an interested guy approaches them, as long as he is nice, not rude or lewd, and doesn't' backs off once they signal they aren't interested.

Remember because of the LE situation girls are shy and scared to approach even if they are interested in a bit of p4 p. So it is up to you to make first contact.

In Centro and other areas be on the lookout for the parks and other places that have wifi. This kind of gives you an "excuse" to be there and hang around. I almost always get inviting looks and catcalls from girls even when I am there just to check my email.

I have to agree with what Uncle V and Catire mentioned on their posts.

Even if your Español is somewhat lacking your initial "hola" goes a long way to get you to 1st base (again as mentioned if she's interested).

From here you can always go with your phone translation app which I'm sure this will arouse her curiosity, then it's up to you once you get on base, LOL.

Remember, as was mention previously to check out the joint on Neptuno & Galiano, I think it's called Delirio Habanero. Even though I've never been there I've heard good things about it.

A good friend will be in Havana / Guanabo for two weeks from September 28th. I have given him good advice, but read here that it is more difficult to find hot young ladies than before. As a result of police fear.

My friend is a first timer and can not expect help from the casa people. Is there anyone who can recommend a cool wing man who is pretty much to trust and have good contacts with young girls hungry for extra money for good service?

Or someone who is up to date on clubs and can hang out with?

I am new to this board and read a few pages back on Havana. I was there in early July with my wingman and stayed in a nice apt in Vedado only a few blocks from Hotel Melia Havana. We only speak broken Spanglish and rely on google translate. We were approached at 10-11 pm A couple of times while walking one block away from the Malecon. You probably could find jiniteras in that area but they fear the police and approach when no one is visible around. Word of caution, the jineteras can and do steal if you're not watching your stuff. My wingman, had 100 CUCS under the book by his bed which disappeared as well as some vitamins and sunscreen. If you're not interested in hard core putas, the general advise to start out with an "Hola, como estas" is always valid, if they don't answer you move on. If they do, find something to talk about, like do you know "where, what, which" nearby and then invite them to coffee, restaurant, apt, etc. If they accept, then high probability of scoring. We saw a nice chica walking by and a quick "Hola" and a conversation about the food quality at a restaurant on Calle 1 ra led an unforgettable session that night. She didn't mind a little p4 p. Once my wingman said Hello, to a cashier at the govt owned store and invited her over. Though not very attractive she was awesome in the sack and didn't expect any money at all, just gave her some women's lotion. Police can harass the girls without a doubt. And we experienced it first hand. On Sunday night after a few hours of rest upon arrival, while walking the Malecon saw two young girls sitting on the barrier wall with a rum bottle drinking. A smile and Hola revealed she is celebrating her 21th bday with her friend. Long story short we ended up taking a taxi to go to El Capitolo to a fancy club / restaurant. Around 1:00 am After a few Heineken's and some food we were walking to taxis and girls were stopped by the police. They asked for their IDs but we weren't even approached or had to show anything. Soon shouting and the girls protests and crying they're not putas. Police didn't even say anything to us. The girls were finally let go because one of them saw her cousin among the police officer who intervened on her behalf after scolding her for hanging out with extranjeros. We let go of these chicas because we felt like we were being fleeced. They called but we said no.

Having travelled throughout Latin and Asian countries I wouldn't rank Havana as a top destination but I would rank Cuban chicks as very passionate in bed if they like you. For me it was a one time visit and there are too many other places to visit.

Therefore I concluded that there is no agreement to be done, as they were just not asking for, nor interested to exchange even a word with me.

I would never dare corrupt a cuban officer.

In my case, it was the taxi driver who brokered the deal.

To certain extent, my understanding always was that the police state is interested more in control than harassing girls, and girls can provide this information. I bet everyone is a snitch one way or another. If the girl continues to work she is definitely known to authorities and allowed do so. I wouldn't accept everything I hear or see anywhere at face value, and Cuba is no exception.

Hell, I'm starting to think that most taxi drivers in Havana are the police, they control everything basically.

I posted a rant about year or two ago about this situation. Basically I took my girl out to a nice restaurant one evening for a meal and a few drinks. When we were leaving, the police were waiting for us just outside the restaurant. Our taxi driver was there too (I've been using the same taxi driver in Havana for 2 years and know him fairly well). As soon as we stepped outside the restaurant the police confronted my girl. The interrogation began. Our taxi driver intervened and managed to get both of us into the taxi while he argued with the police. My girl was shitting in her pants, absolutely scared shitless, no way she was faking it.

So after 30 minutes of back and forth arguing, crying, begging etc. ,etc. The taxi driver came over and said 10 CUC and we could be on our way, this took place down in Old Havana at a nice Italian Restaurant.

Evening ruined, buzz killed, fucking ******* cops.

...and btw, this is not the only time shit like this has happened to me in Havana.

Cops on many occasions are not local, they are not hired by the municipality, but bused in from the provinces on rotation, and by all means are not the nicest or the most educated; at the same time there is no perception of corruption on a street level. I saw girls discussing something with them and the cops let the girls on their way each time. Also, the address is printed on the back of each carnet and if she is from another city that may present a problem for the girl.

Take for example, a chica from Santiago comes to Havana to earn some Christmas money, from a far way city, she knows she will be busted. Apparently there's a whole industry set up to address this problem, so they have forged carnets made, with addresses in Provinces near Havana, say like Artemesia Province.

How would you know that? The older carnets might not have been too difficult to copy but you would need some pretty expensive equipment to copy the new ones. Also whenever the cops stop the girls they quite often call in their carnet number to confirm the info. It would be an immediate prison sentence for sure to get caught with a fake carnet. I've seen girls with carnets belonging to other girls because they were [CodeWord902] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord902) but I haven't seen any fakes. Of course I would not easily have been able to spot a fake if it were the older carnets but with the newer ones with the barcodes. Etc I think it would be easily detected especially by the police. For my own protection I've always checked the girl's carnets and written down the ID info and nowadays I quite often take a pic of them with my cellphone.

Apologies, I was drinking last night, I really don't know what percentage of Carnets are fake, but I do know of 2 that are fake. They are the laminated Carnets with the information hand written. Not sure if they are old or new, I'm assuming they are the old ones.

I know exactly where two of these girls live, and it's hundreds of miles away from Havana, I've been to their casa's, meet their families, mom and pop, cousins, aunts, uncles. Peace.

BTW, EXCELENT point you make about checking the girl's carnet and taking a pix with your phone. Never thought of that!

Usually I hook up with more non-pro's than the hard core putas/jineteras but thinking about it your point makes lots of sense, specially when your P4 P.

I've been told by LOTS of people in Cuba including my usual place on the Malecon about being extra careful by bringing the hard core ones since you run the risk of being victimized and taken over for a ride. Been told of cases of mongers being drugged while boozing with the gal and then taken to the cleaners.

I posted about this last year: A well known tout that hangs on the Sofia corner walks up to me and says he needs 80 cuc now to pay off the cops or he was going to jail. I'm cool as shit with dude but wasnt about to give up 80 cuc. The cops handcuffed him and put him in the car when he called me over and said the cops would take 40 if I could loan him 40. I said I didn't have it and they took him away. One hour later he was back on the Sofia corner.
