Thursday Doors # 18 Havana, Cuba

· by · in Thursday Doors. ·

After Tikal, I headed to Caye Caulker in Belize, Playa del Carmen  and Chichen Itza in Mexico. Looking back through those photos there are no doors, beautiful Carribean seas and beaches and fantastic Mayan ruins but no doors!

So with that in mind, let’s hop on a plane and head to Havana, Cuba. People sit in doorways making music or watching the world go by. Many of the doorways are grand, a symbol of the grandeur that once was Havana but is now crumbling.

 

I wonder how things will change now that the doors of diplomacy have opened between the States and Cuba. I hope the people retain their warmth and welcoming nature and things don’t become too commercialised and worldly wise. There was a simplicity about life and a love for it. I hope Cuba maintains its identity and holds it own in this new era.
