    Hey Paul, I know you are quite fluent in French, so I am wondering how good your Spanish is? Cuba looks like an interesting, albeit challenging place to visit, but I imagine English isn't that widespread. Can an American that only knows English still have a good time in Cuba, or is it really a place that needs Spanish to have fun?

    • @pddembowski
      @pddembowski 5 днів тому

      My Spanish is somewhere between B1-B2 intermediate. It's a bit isolating if you are travelling solo and don't speak Spanish, you will have more fun if you speak the Language as you can have conversations with locals. I think you are less likedly to get overcharged as well...But I think you can still have a good time with only English, I would recommend just staying in the Old Havana area if its your 1st visit. I met a UK guy who only spoke English who was having fun, hanging around bars and restaurants in the Old Havana area.

Not so expensive Restaurante Sarrá - Loved the chicken tacos, cheap Restaurant Bulgaria - Not bad, entire fish was good. El Shamuskiao - Vegan restaurant but the Spaghetti Bolagnaise was great. Tasted better than the meat version.
