Havana

[HarryDubois]

I have been messaging a few of these Chicas last week or so, they seem very sweet and the back on forth on messenger is well. Then they drop a request for a recarga citing their financial hardship. Is that some sort of scam, hassle or a true request?

EVERY SINGLE CUBAN GIRL DOES THAT. But who knows if she's even a girl unless you did a video chat? My response is "After we have sex, you get paid. " Unless you want to pay for some sexting, which is up to you if that's your thing.

Of course I declined saying I haven't met you. But I am just wondering if any others have had that experience.

Make her earn it, but understand you may need to teach her how to earn it. If she stays in regular communication, helps you practice your Spanish, informs you of what her life is like in Cuba, plans activities for your next visit to Cuba, sending her twenty bucks every two months would be fair. If after teaching her how to earn it, she refuses, then don't communicate with her.

The discussion here kind of ran off the rails LOL. Although this is the Havana thread a poster named Harry was asking about Holguin because he fell in love over the internet with a girl there. So we were talking about a different part of Cuba than Havana. I think we all agree Havana is a good place for the game both in terms of finding interested chicas and finding apartments to bring them. The city of Holguin has the chicas but the apartment owners strongly enforce the government's policy in that all guests need to be registered. So it's ok to bring a chica (even in the middle of the night) but she needs to register. Havana not so much. But maybe things have changed based on TxSnake's recent experience.

One must never forget that Cuban chicas are providing a service, just like a taxi driver. Most chicas I met become very annoyed about any conversation that they are "Pay for Play". What you can get away with is making clear that you are seeking an experience (which obviously includes intimacy). That is truthfully what I expect. I will happily buy a pig for the chica's family with the understanding that I'm doing so for her to show off her family's cooking skills and enjoy an all I can eat experience. I expect to learn something about life in Cuba. It somewhat allows her to salvage a sense of dignity when you communicate an expectation of much more than sex, but rather a full experience. Don't forget to communicate a very low tolerance for things such as being late. I think such things even help the chica keep some dignity because it gives her a chance to prove that she's a responsible person.

Staying emotionally unattached is essential, but appreciating her talent to show you a good time in every way much in the way you would appreciate and return to a fine chef for good food has worked well for me. The Cubanas I have met appreciate being referred to as a skilled companion, but resent being referred to like a piece of meat. In other words, demand and recognize talent for a chica who is a skilled companion. Kick the problem chicas to the curb. The province of Holguin has a culture that results in pleasant, enjoyable chicas. For best results, don't tolerate unprofessionalism.

Hi gents,

What's the word around town?

Last I read here was that no tourists allowed in Havana, just from the airport straight to the resort.

Has anything changed since then? I'm hoping to visit around Jan / Feb.

Thanks.

Looks like you will be tested (covid) when you get there, then isolated for 5 days, then tested again.

"Incoming travelers will be given a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test upon arrival. They are then required to self-isolate. On day five of isolation, they will be required to undergo a second PCR test".

I thought you can get tested on airport and then can go to casa. From that point on take basic precautions such as wearing mask and do what we need to do.

I did. Not to Holguin, but to Las Tunas.

To be honest, I have been to Santa Clara and Ciego de Avila a couple times. I wanted to see the countryside of Cuba, plus I knew a couple chicas in Ciego. That was back in the "good" days in Cuba, before the the real shortages started setting in. Now that I've seen that part of Cuba, I'm not going back anytime soon, probably never. It is very expensive travelling outside of Havana. Havana to Ciego round trip = $300 taxi fare.

If you have never meet them, I wouldn't send them anything. With that said, Cubans are having a very difficult time these days, they are desperate. If you do decide to send some money, that money usually goes to their boyfriends and family. It's a very good possibility that they already have some other guy('s) sending them money anyway.

You right, who the hell goes to Holguin? 500 hundred miles (1127 KM) from Havana? "fell in love over the internet" hahahaha.

Yeah some guys come and ask questions without doing any other research. Because it's an island country they think it's like Aruba and you can drive from one end to the other in less than an hour LOL.

I can 2nd, 3rd, 4th, all the way to 16th that! Never had a problem bringing chicas in the casa, all 16 times that I have been to Havana, and that includes, February and March of this year.

I am probably not the best person to give any input regarding this, since I live in Cuba. I have only booked a room for the whole day once here in havana, and that was with chris h. I had the key with me all the time and when I left, I didn't even return the key to the owner. Chris took care of it. However, I have rented rooms for a short period (1-2 hours) way too many times, at least once a week minimum. Never had any problem whatsoever. Maybe sometimes, there aren't any rooms available at my regular place, I just go to another location. I have never failed to find a room available, when and where I need one. It was always available, even during the lockdown in havana at the peak of covid19. BTW I pay 5-10 cuc each time for the room, depending on the location and size of the room.

You live in Cuba? Are you Cuban or non-Cuban and living there? I'm really interested to hear your story. If I were going to Cuba I'd offer to take you for drinks to pick your brain!
