I'm travelling to Cuba for one month and am looking for a host family to stay with. How do I find one? |
Travel Info I've tried some "international host family" websites and none of them have options in Cuba. Travel Tips If you're a US citizen, I wouldn't go there. The government is really clamping down on the embargo and unless you can prove you are fully hosted (and the government assumes you're not, you have to prove it) you could face stiff fines and jail. It's not worth it. Others Hola Celia, have a look to this site: www.academiacaribe.com Saludos. AC TEAM Look up a guy called "Potato" on Cuba Junky. It has his contact info. Or go on "trip advisor" and contact a guy called "voyHavana" Either one of these guy should be able to help you. Good Luck and Have a great time in Cuba. go to the web RentaenCuba.com Andrea, I can recommend you this family: Dr. Alfredo MESA y Edilia CLORIJO (his mum) calle 25 no. 525, esq. calle H, apto. 1 (ground floor right side), Vedado, La Habana, Cuba t茅l. (+53 7) 832 - 90 - 90 That is where I stayed in july. This very sympathic doctor (48 years) and his mother, which really is a very friendly person, rent two rooms with all confort you need: Air conditioned, with your private bathroom, cleaned up every day. They make you breakfast on demand. The room is 30 CUC (cuban convertibel pesos, so around 30 dollars) by night. The help you to find addresses or with anything you would like to know. It's very central, near the famous 23th street and to Habana Libre hotel or "Coppelia" for example, in Vedado, the best area in Habana if you ask me (because in this area, there is ALWAYS water and light, which is not always the case in other areas...). So, you can reach good dancing places, bars, family restaurants ("paladares") and everything by foot. And Old Havana ("Habana Vieja") is like 3 or 4 dollars by taxi and 10 minutes away. Another address I know is in the same area: Eloisa Perez, calle H no. 613, apto. 2, entre 25 y 27. tlf. (+53 7) 832-7879 She is also in the internet: http://207.96.254.9/_a/cities/la_habana/... (now, it's the same price as Edelia, 30 dollars) But in this apartment (Eloisa), you will be alone. This can be an advantage, but also an inconvenient: finally, I prefered the house of Edelia and Alfredo, because this was a possibility to speak with this family and they helped me out for everything. The last day, we even organized a party with dancing music with them and some friends, at Edelias house. If you need any information, just contact me and ask me all what you want to ask. Andrea, I got an "expert" of Cuba by 4 travels to this beautiful island and I can really give you a lot of information. |
