Cute, colorful streets I've duly recorded this charmer for my trip to Cuba--my favorite places are often these small, untouristed ones. But when you told of those conversations, that must be a bit loud since they take place inside and outside of a house, it rather confirms what I've heard of Cuba--constant noise, constant music. Ok for three weeks, but yikes--somewhat intense.
Choose your rooms wisely... Yes Tara, you're right about the noise. I really noticed those conversations, hence writing about them, in Sancti Spiritus because my bedroom was right off the street. I wanted to be that close to the centre, so put up with it, but I'm normally a peace and quite kind of gal myself. I therefore spent a lot of time on the rooftop! People all live very close in these towns, add in the animals, children, very loud diesel engines from ancient vehicles, and it can get loud on the street. Thats where the quieter rooftops come into play!
We may need to return to Cuba We didn't go to this town and it sounds like you have discovered a gem. Although I will say we loved Trinidad. In part due to the people we stayed with, as you know that makes all the difference.
