Since President Obama announced that the American policy towards Cuba was changing, most of us in the United States are in favor of it, according to a new poll.
Both Cubans and Americans seem to be gearing up for travel. Airbnb tweeted out some new listings of places to stay in Cuba.
A short film that I found online called Havana Bikes by Kauri Multimedia shows the ways that Cubans have preserved old bikes and made new modes of transportation from them. Not necessarily because of love for old bikes, but out of necessity in order to get around.
As business opportunities and trading grows between the United States and Cuba, these old bikes may soon be a thing of the past.
Havana Bikes has a great soundtrack and shows some of the bicycle creations that have developed over the years. It’s a glimpse into a particular place at a particular time that is drawing from the past and present, but may look so very different in the future.
