Havana

[QUOTE=MidLifeUsa;2518530]I was in Havana from Dec 24 - Dec 29 // here's a quick report:
- Met few chicas roaming around the Wi-Fi park, asked them to join me for a beer and then took 2 of them to my casa. Paid 25 wach and few gifts for a threesome.
[/QUOTE]So it sounds as if prices are similar to a year ago however there are fewer prostitutes, but also fewer tourists, and payment is in cash US dollars not CUC. Also as I understand it, there was no problem with the police harassing girls who are with foreigners and girls were allowed into your rented apartment without problem.

I am wondering if now, since the CUC is gone as of January 1, has the dollar become more valuable and perhaps 1 dollar will be worth what 2 CUC were worth for example.

[QUOTE=MidLifeUsa;2518530]I was in Havana from Dec 24 - Dec 29 // here's a quick report:

Travel:

- Delta is not flying to Havana so took a Delta form ATL. Miami and American from Miami to Havana.

- Paid $32 esh dollar online for covid test* at Havana. Please keep the receipt handy as American airlines* had* no idea of if I paid the fees as the agency which manages Cuba travel at AA does not talk to American system. * I had to show the receipt to avoid repaying.

- American is a fucking ripoff and charges 100 for Havana visa. Paid that in Miami before the check-in process.

- While not required but I had taken a covid test before flying to be on safer side.

Havana Airport.

- After getting off the airport everybody was lined up to get a PCR test. We had to fill up a form (in Spanish)* with the address in Havana and Phone number for casa owner.

- Everyone was wearing mask and even though social distancing was not being followed but I felt safe with a face shield and a mask.

- Immigration check had no issue and took less than 5 min after the PCR test.

- Getting checked in bag took around 15 minutes and in general there was chaos as most of the people in flight were there for meet family for Christmas / new year and lot of bags checked in.

- Getting through custom was easy // they recognized me as a tourist asked me if I had anything to declare and simply asked me to go through green channel.

- Please note that Cuba is not allowing the private car / pick up by casa owner at airport and I had to take a yellow taxi to my casa in old Havana.

- Taxi charged me 30 CUC. I didn't had CUC with me so paid 30 USD.

Quarantine.

- Doctor visited me after I checked in the casa. Apparently there is a 3 day quarantine period in which they are suppose to visit you daily (in the morning) to check the temperature and symptoms while waiting for test results.

- Doctor didn't showed up on day 2 but knocked in the morning on day 3 to check. Plan your day around the doctor visit.

Currency:

- CUC is being phased out and USD is being accepted everywhere.

- In Havana most of the restaurants and cab driver gave me 1:1 rate. I didn't haggle a lot even though I knew the actual is higher.

- I stayed in Guanabo from 26 - 29th and got 1 USD to 1. 40 from a local restaurant called Rico Rico.

Havana / Guanabo and Chicas:

- Everybody wears mask, doesn't matter what time of day. Cuba is safer than states right know in terms of # of cases and people following basic hygiene of masks and hand sanitizer.

- Its depressing to see most of the restaurant and known establishment being closed because of covid.

- As a tourist I never had a issue finding anything I. E water, liquor, food.

- I was staying at Obsipo street and it was practically empty most of the times. Almost no nightlife in old Havana. For most of the local it was life at usual and there was lot more traffic near capitol and behind National hotel where I did saw few tourists.

- Found a black chica on first day while wondering on the streets after few beers.

- She was a fucking ripoff, charged me 40 USD and gave me a handjob after some fingering and other stuff.

- Found a light skin chica while sipping beer at a restaurant called ramp o something in front of main coppelia / theatre.

- Charged me 80 CUC (I paid in USD) for 24 hours. It was more GFE experience. She stayed with me in my apartment, we went for dinner and had 3 -4 sessions between evening, night and morning.

- Moved on Guanabo and spend few days visiting the beach (I thinks its called playa blanca and is much more cleaner than Guanabo beach).

- Met few chicas roaming around the Wi-Fi park, asked them to join me for a beer and then took 2 of them to my casa. Paid 25 wach and few gifts for a threesome.

- I had bought few fits such as lipsticks, perfume, panties etc and gave them as tip to server and chicas during my trip.

- Took a yellow cab back from Guanbo to Airport and paid 40 CUC (around 29 USD).[/QUOTE]Very interesting. Thanks for the report. I think I will be waiting till this winter to even think about going back. By then I should be vaccinated and hopefully things will be on the mend there.

They shut it down for the meantime.

Deserted streets of Havana. Sad. I miss the good old days in Havana.

Any of the members here going to Cuba any time soon? Is it still not possible to use US debit cards or credit cards there?

I've been wanting to check out Cuba for a while and still have not gone. I'm handsome {I think} young and normally have no problem with the ladies and the first time I ever gave a woman money was in the past few months. Then I got addicted to the mongering haha.

Anyway, Cuba seems to be up my alley since members here mention you have to put in the work and not be shy, and that's most of the fun for me is talking to the women the real interaction and not just pay to play {which is not something I mind doing now}.

I'm not someone who likes to keep cash on them so would want to hit up the ATM with my US debit if possible on the daily or every other day while I'm there, and if possible, although not necessary at all pay for things with my credit card.

It looks like you just woke up from a comma or something, I doubt that any airline will sell you a ticket to go there, well they will, only that you won't be able to fly, their Covid cases are going up due to the "government" stupidity and if you set foot on the island, chances are that you'll be sent to a hotel, which you will have to pay and won't be able to leave the place. You had your chances and didn't take advantage, now wait.

As for being your and "attractive," that won't guarantee anything because you're not Cuban, if a Cubana open her legs right after you meet her, chances are that she will want to get pay, for a young, hard "thing", she has plenty to choose from in Cuba.

Seems that you didn't do a lick of research and oblivious that there is a worldwide pandemic going on. Some good advice would be for you to log off this site and then log back in approximately 12 months from now (March 2022). By then, possibly, just maybe possibly something may have changed.

Traveling Dom, if this is your first mongering trip, start in Sosua, DR.

Do more research on this forum, and online in general about where you are planning to go.

Every country is like a different world, with their own tricks of the trade and cultural ways.

[QUOTE=AmericanPi;2512660]Can I ask, for those of you messaging prospects ahead of your trips to Havana, where are you finding them? Like if you say "on Facebook" or something, does that mean I can just go in my FB account and search for people and start sending invites? Or is there some other way to do it?[/QUOTE]Badoo used to be a good place to find local girls ahead of time. Not sure what people are using now, I also wonder.

I have a quick question, if you rent an entire place on airbnb. Is there any issues as far as bringing chicas in and out a la Medellin? I used to stay in a place where I didn't have any issues at all, since my buddy is Cuban American and it was his family's house. But this time I will be renting an entire place on airbnb.

With the many times that I have been to Havana, me and my peeps only stay in homes that allow guest. That's why we normally stay at the same casa, and it's a perfect location. We have unlimited chicas and fiestas with no problemos.
