An American ‘lost’ in Havana

An American ‘lost’ in Havana

Rachel D. Rojas • June 16, 2015



HAVANA — Cuba is in fashion. Behind us are the years of solitude on an empty and dark stage. After Dec. 17, 2014, all the lights went on and focused on our country. The Americans want to come.

They wanted to come before, but now the fruit forbidden (still not ripe) by the U.S. government for so many years may soon be sampled in this “bubble lost in history,” where many say that we live.

And Americans want to come soon because “soon this place will be totally commercialized and I want to see it before it changes altogether.” So said Bill (not his full name), a 50-some American who visited Havana some days ago.

Bill comes from Atlanta, Ga., escaping for three days from a stressing routine, in which he needs to work almost 14 hours a day to pay for comforts he doesn’t have the time to enjoy.
