Last year I went to Havana and Viñales Cuba as a travel photographer. I couldn’t believe it was really happening, how it happened and when it happened, because I manifested this trip without consciously knowing. I have been eyeing Cuba for the longest, and it happened during my birthday, which was a amazing at that, because I never celebrate my birthday. This is a trip I will never forget, because I learned so much about their culture and how they continue to smile and push through life no matter the circumstances.
I made my way to Cuba with Wander Roam Travel, I was booked to be the travel photographer back in May 2019. These photos have spearheaded that desire I have always had to travel and take photos from all across the world. Wander Roam Travel is a company that is committed to providing meaningful, unique, cultural experiences encouraging networking and a sense of community among its diverse groups of travelers.
Cuban people are pure joy. I don't know any other country in the world where photographing people is as much fun so far. The people are so natural and open that I am drawn to their way of dealing with hardships of daily life in a nation where basic comforts and amenities of the modern world are often unavailable. Of course there's color, music and a intense Caribbean vibe in Cuba, but I'm especially struck by how remarkable, joyous and present Cubans can be. I had expected to find the people of Cuba depressed and down, but found the complete opposite. They carry themselves with an attractive dignity and always makes the most out of what they have to enjoy life.
