• A local retired musician playing Son (music genre). He plays to tourists passing by in a central plaza in Santiago de Cuba.
  • When our bus got a flat tire driving from Trinidad to Santiago de Cuba, we has to pull into the nearest bus depot. We met Yaidel Gonzalez, 26, a Cuban pimp from Havana. He is waiting at the bus depot in Las Tunas to go to Holguin where recruits country girls as prostitutes. Yaidel was born into the business, as his mother herself was a "Jinetera" (prostitute) and taught him the profession. He wanted his photo to be promoted on Facebook so that we could find him an American girlfriend, to marry and leave the country.
