Maybe the girls don't want to be scene with you? I've walked around town plenty with chicas including beach, restaurants, clubs and bars hand in hand, no problems.
I wouldn't recommend anyone to take your opinionated advice.
La Rampa is full of life, something for everyone, I've met beautiful memorable chicas on the Avenue many times. If gay action is not your taste, keep it moving, no reason to point it out.

Posts: 45United1, sounds like you had a test run. My first trip to Cuba, I did not find a warm authentic meal until the 2nd day during the evening. I did find a chica in one of the WIFI parks, and a couple more nearby Melia Cohiba hotel.
Cuba is unlike any other systematic chica friendly country. There is footwork to do, connections to make and with that comes convenience.
Every trip I took after the first one, only got better.
Its hard to tell you exactly where to find them, but along La Rampa is probably the easiest place to find a quickie.
If you take your time, and meet someone along the way throughout your day, it can be very rewarding.

Posts: 248What did I do wrong? Uneventful times in Havana
Gents,
I assumings I did something wrongs, I had a horrible time in Havana. I spend 5 days total and didn't find much to look at, let alone approach. Too many unattractive black girls.
To be honest, I didn't go to any clubs, so maybe there is the mistakes I make to be monger. And I only stayed in Old Havana. But it my experience was NOT as described below in the forums. That any girl was available for pick up. All of the white / mixed pretty girls at hotels, restaurants, on the street rarely looked at me, let alone make small talk.
I tried to flirt with the white girls. They would not give in. Not sure how you were able to pick up these regular girls.
Most of the working girls on streets were black and looked like hood rats from USA. I assumed there we be a lot more options on the main streets, parks, prados, etc. But very little options.
Got to say I was quite disappointed. But I did find a thin average girl on the street who came to my place and gave me a handjob for $20. That's a great deal.
I think I better stick with Mexico, Colombia or my favs joints in Asia.
But I am willing to give Havana another chance. Heards so many stories of professional women (doctor, nurses, teachers) making only $35 per month! Wow.

Posts: 45I have a weekend coming up to escape. I kept my options very open.
I almost pulled the trigger on Sosua, but something keeps pulling me back to Havana.
Wifi is easy nowadays, 99% of Airbnb hosts provide a sim, all you have to so is give them money to load it.
Regular home wifi is limited, very few locals have it, don't expect it.
If your Airbnb host is useless, ask your chica or a taxi guy to help you for a fee.
I can't wait to eat some delicious Cuban food and wash it down with a cigar and rum.

Cuba's government has not publicized this much since it prolly afraid about getting it block by the USA government.

Posts: 1Havana Hotel
I am looking to stay in Havana in June. I need a 4* hotel with good internet. Recommendations would be appreciated. Prefer downtown near the action.

In case you don't buy the card, lots of casas sell bottles of rum out their front door. They have little cabinets with lots of stuff they resell for a small profit. I'd buy water bottles and sodas this way almost daily since the places I went to buy with the MC were almost always out of water and sodas.
I bought one bottle of Havana club aņejo with the MC card which lasted me the whole time I was there. As far as cigars, I don't smoke but bought a 3 pack before coming back at the airport, went thru customs in Newark and was never searched (had it on my coat) Also, a gal sitting next to me on the plane from Habana to Newark had a bottle of Santiago rum (really good shit) and they confiscated it in customs. She's really pissed when I saw her afterwards.
As far as changing money is concerned, I brought most of my cash in USD and had a connection to exchange it at 160 CUP to 1 USD.
Heads up: When you exchange your currency I'd advise you to get the CUP in the higher denomination bills, eg; 200,500, & 1000 bills. Some funny shit, 2nd time a contact that got me and exchange the 2nd time I needed it, got me all of it in smaller bills, like 10 & 20 CUP. Man what a bummer, just think what 16,000 CUP looked like, well it's actually like 2 huge bricks! No kidding, so trying to carry those bills around became a huge problem and paying also was a hassle. I remember going to El Biky (one of my fave places to eat) the bill was something like 4000 CUP and you should have seen the waiter's face when I handed him that sum in CUP, haha.
BTW, most places give you the option to pay both in CUP or USD, just make sure to ask what exchange rate they'll give you if pay in USD, otherwise you might get shorted on the exchange.
Enjoy your trip and report back.
Saludos.
