REPORTAGE - Alltag in Kuba
Cuban cigars on display in a shop window.
Those cigars are rolled from tobacco leaves found throughout the country of Cuba. The filler, binder, and wrapper may come from different portions of the island. All cigar production in Cuba is controlled by the Cuban government, and each brand may be rolled in several different factories in Cuba.
Cuba produces both handmade and machine-made cigars. All boxes and labels are marked Hecho en Cuba (Spanish for made in Cuba). Machine-bunched cigars finished by hand add Hecho a mano, while fully handmade cigars say Totalmente a mano in script text, though not all Cuban cigars will include this statement. Because of the perceived status of Cuban cigars, counterfeits are somewhat commonplace.
Despite American trade sanctions against Cuban products, cigars remain one of the country's leading exports. Since the United States has removed import limits on Cuban tobacco and alcohol, all travelers can bring home an unlimited supply of the rhum and cigars.

REPORTAGE - Alltag in Kuba
Two men seat on the street in Havana city center.
For a week I explored the streets of Havana, the homes and Havana's vastly diverse culture, just a few days after the death of the legendary leader Fidel Castro.
After news broke on Friday evening (the 25th November) that Fidel Castro had died, some people in Havana reacted in shock, disbelief, and pain. Others saw the former leader's death as an opportunity for the country.
On the same night, many people did not respond with any visible emotion when they were told of Fidel Castro’s death.
During the next few days that followed, many went about their days as usual, arguing that little would change because of Fidel Castro’s demise.
Much of Havana seemed and still seems uncertain about exactly how to feel, or at least how to talk about it.

A crowd of tourists seen at the book market.
The improvment of relations between the USA and Cuba at the beginning of this year started a boom in tourism. Cruise liners traveling from the US began docking in Havana in May and the first commercial flight from the US to Cuba landed on November 28. But not everyone in Cuba sees the benefits from a growing number of foreign visitors. The food in Cuba is becoming scarce and expensive.

Since the 24th May, the Cuban Government legalized small and medium-sized private businesses in a move that could significantly expand private enterprise in one of the world's last communist countries. Those reforms have allowed about half a million Cubans to start work in the private sector. However, the process has been very slow and marked by periodic reversals.

REPORTAGE - Kuba im Umbruch
March 6, 2016, Pinar del Rio, Cuba: A tobacco farmer demonstrates how to roll a cigar for tourists in Pinar del Rio, a province of Cuba. Farmers are allowed to keep and sell up to 10 percent of their harvest. Many of the tobacco farms have used some of that surplus to attract tourists to their farms to see how the legendary cigars are made.

Taking life slowly in Cuba, Cuba - 29 Dec 2015
FULL COPY: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/rxvm
Despite the fast changes that are happening in Cuba, the population are still taking life very slowly.
Photographer Valerio Berdini has captured a series of images that show the slow, Cuban way of life.
Valerio said: "The headlines speak clear - change is imminent; expectations are high. What the analysis don't seem to touch on are the Cubans. There have been three generations of people that grew up and have been educated under Fidel Castro's socialism."
He added: "In Cuba time passes at a different pace, days do not have the rhythm of a western society. Workers are not taught the concepts of services, efficiency or excellence. Competition, the driving force of a capitalist society, is unknown in an economy where, for almost 60 years, people are used to earning their (meagre) salary regardless their productivity. There are few objectives and fewer rewards, the little money are spent in tiny undersupplied shops. People aren't seduced by adverts."
