Yo soy la única que trabaja aquí

My trip to Cuba during this summer was not exactly relaxed, paradisiacal or idyllic but otherwise it completely stirred me up.
With this brief photo essay of a bittersweet tone I intend to relate my experience in this country whose joy and carelessness contrast with the political and social situation.

things I like from Cuba/

art deco degraded buildings
towels with floral motives
curtains
plates
the enormous generosity from humbles
countryside families
daiquiri
pastel colors
TV show program
La Colmena TV show where little kids dance,
play and sing
the non-existence of IKEA
how it smells in some streets
platano frito
the expression “nuevecita” instead of “jovencita”
how women are strong and independent
caramel pudding
lemonade

things I don't like from Cuba/

having to roll over little crabs during our way to the northern coast
strait dogs
people thinking I’m 16 years old
reggeaton at the cuban beaches
how women is treated in mass media
how women is treated in street
how women is treated in their daily life
how it smells in some streets
how the environment is treated
the people who try to trick me
