Cuba is supposed to be a beautiful place. Caribbean beaches, Salsa, and a unique charm that might not last much longer in these changing times.

We might never know thanks to the the utter incompetence of Cuban Embassy staff. We need ‘tourist cards’ (something like a visa) to enter, or board a flight, to Cuba. We were hoping to secure these in Lima, Peru, having purchased flight tickets in an…

Hi All,We arrived safe and sound in Bogota last night, although we faced extreme scrutiny at Quito airport in Ecuador. We had our big backpacks searched twice before boarding, the second time being pulled downstairs (under armed guard) from the boarding lounge shortly before take-off Who would have thought that people would try to smuggle drugs INTO Columbia?

Hi Everyone,

Just a short note to those worried that we might have been kidnapped or murdered in Columbia. We are safe and well and have spent the past 8 days in Cuba; in many ways a much worse fate
