Thank you for the sentiment. I was in Bulgaria last year speaking with friends that lived through Soviet rule, and they had similar experiences. It was slightly different, because as you said about the Czech Republic, the country is now open. The problem that most people don't understand about Cuba is that the fight is still online. Everyday, people disappear or are tortured because they are opposed to the government. I am not saying it doesn't happen in other countries, but because the island is so close to free countries, people who visit choose to believe that this is Cuban's past, instead of understanding that it is the present.

I can tell you that it is sad that human beings like any other country, spend a long journey of their lives subjected by a strong regime. God protect them.I liked your point of view, hello soon I will be publishing my post, I am new in steemit of venezuela.
Hola Maribel! If you are in Venezuela, then you know when what it means to be subjugated--I am so sorry about the conditions of your beautiful country. My grandparents lived there, they left my mother in Cuba when she was 15 so they could build something new in Venezuela, little did they know the direction the country would take. We only went to visit them a few times because of the conditions, but luckily my grandmother was a US resident as well and came to visit us every year. ¡Un abrazo!
